Wake-up sources

The PXA270 offers two sleep modes:

Sleep mode offers lower power consumption by switching off most internal units. There is no activity inside the processor, except for the units programmed to retain their state in the PSLR register, the real time clock and the clocks and power manager. Because internal activity has stopped, recovery from sleep mode must occur through an external or internal real time clock event. External wake-up sources are GPIO<n> edge detects (they are listed in the section PXA270 GPIO pin assignments, page 22).

Deep-sleep mode offers the lowest power consumption by powering most units off. There is no activity inside the processor, except for the real time clock (RTC) and the clocks and power manager. Because internal activity has stopped, recovery from deep-sleep mode must be through an external event or an RTC event. In deep-sleep mode, all the PXA270 power supplies (VCC_CORE, VCC_SRAM, VCC_PLL, VCC_IO excluding VCC_BATT) are powered off for minimized power consumption. On the ZEUS, the main +3.3V rail supplies the VCC_IO power domain of the PXA270. Since the +3.3V supply is switched off in deep-sleep mode, all the on- board peripherals are powered off and it is not possible to use external wake-up sources. In this situation, recovery from deep-sleep mode must be through an internal RTC event.

For more information on PXA270 power management, see section 3.6 in the Intel PXA27x Processor Family Developer’s Manual, included on the Development Kit CD.
