Power Down In power down mode (R0<0>=1), the entire AS3935 is switched off. The typical current consumption is 800nA. After power up, the TRCO is not calibrated. The calibration must be done by the user pressing the button “Calibrate RCOs”, and respectively “Calibrate LCO” if needed. - Page 10 Oscillators In case the AS3935 demo board is connected to the GUI via USB before powering up the demo board, the oscillators will not be calibrated. The calibration procedure can be executed manually via the GUI. The first step is to measure the default resonance frequency of the oscillators by pressing “Measure”.
