POWER MANAGEMENT UNIT

POWER MANAGEMENT UNIT FEATURES

The power management unit (PMU) controls the different power modes of the ADuCM310.
The following four power modes are available:
•
Active
•
CORE_SLEEP
•
SYS_SLEEP
•
Hibernate

POWER MANAGEMENT UNIT OVERVIEW

The Cortex-M3 sleep modes are linked to the PMU modes and are described in this section. The PMU is in the always-on section. Each
mode provides a power reduction benefit with a corresponding reduction in functionality.

POWER MANAGEMENT UNIT OPERATION

The debug tools can prevent the Cortex-M3 from fully entering its power saving modes by setting bits in the debug logic. Only a power-on reset
resets the debug logic. Therefore, the device must be power cycled after using serial wire debug with application code containing the WFI
instruction.
Power Mode: Active Mode, Mode 0
The system is fully active. Memories and all user enabled peripherals are clocked, and the Cortex-M3 processor is executing instructions.
Note that the Cortex-M3 processor manages the internal clocks and can be in a partial clock gated state. This clock gating affects only the
internal Cortex-M3 processing core. Automatic clock gating is used on all blocks. User code can use a WFI command to put the Cortex-
M3 processor into sleep mode; it is independent of the power mode settings of the PMU.
When the ADuCM310 wakes up from any of the low power modes, the device returns to Mode 0.
Power Mode: CORE_SLEEP Mode, Mode 1
In CORE_SLEEP mode, the system gates the clock to the Cortex-M3 core after the Cortex-M3 has entered sleep mode. The rest of the
system remains active. No instructions can be executed; however, DMA transfers can continue to occur between peripherals and
memories. The Cortex-M3 processor FCLK is active, and the device wakes up using the NVIC.
Power Mode: SYS_SLEEP Mode, Mode 2
In SYS_SLEEP mode, the system gates HCLK and PCLK after the Cortex-M3 has entered sleep mode. The gating of these clocks stops all
AHB attached masters/slaves and all peripherals attached to APB. Peripheral clocks are all off, and they are no longer user programmable.
The NVIC clock (FCLK) remains active, and the NVIC processes wake-up events.
Power Mode: Hibernate Mode, Mode 3
In hibernate mode, the system disables power to all combinational logic and places sequential logic in retain mode. Because FCLK is
stopped, the number of sources capable of waking up the system is restricted. The sources listed in Table 64 are the only sources able to
wake up the system.
Enter Power Mode 1 to Power Mode 3 when the processor is not in an interrupt handler. If Power Mode 1 to Power Mode 3 is entered
when the processor is in an interrupt handler, the power-down mode can be exited only by a reset or a higher priority interrupt source.
