5.1 Notes for Low Current Consumption

The S1C63558 contains control registers for each of the circuits so that current consumption can be reduced.

These control registers reduce the current consumption through programs that operate the circuits at the minimum levels.

The following lists the circuits that can control operation and their control registers. Refer to these when programming.

Table 5.1.1 Circuits and control registers

SVDON

FSK demodulator

FSKON

Refer to Chapter 7, "Electrical Characteristics" for current consumption.

Below are the circuit statuses at initial reset.

CPU: Operating status

CPU operating frequency: Low speed side (CLKCHG = "0")

OSC3 oscillation circuit is in OFF status (OSCC = "0")

LCD system voltage circuit: OFF status (LPWR = "0")

SVD circuit: OFF status (SVDON = "0")

FSK demodulator: OFF status (FSKON = "0")

Also, be careful about panel selection because the current consumption can differ by the order of several µA on account of the LCD panel characteristics.
