to static current leakage and occurs regardless of the clock rate. Leakage, or standby power, is unavoidable while power is applied and scales roughly with the operating junction temperatures. Leakage power can only be avoided by removing power completely from a device or subsystem. The DM355 includes several power management features which are briefly described in Table 12-1. Refer to the ARM Subsystem User'sGuide for more information on power management.
