AN86233 shows how to use the PSoC 4 low-power modes and features to operate at very low power levels while retaining essential functionality. Major topics include the five power modes, PSoC Creator power management functions, and other power saving techniques and considerations.

AN86233 discusses how to use the PSoC® 4 and PSoC Analog Coprocessor low-power modes and features to operate at very low power levels while retaining essential functionality. Major topics include the five power modes, PSoC Creator™ power management functions, and other power-saving techniques and considerations. Three PSoC Creator example projects are included to demonstrate different aspects of low-power programming.

Introduction

PSoC 4’s low-power modes allow you to reduce overall power consumption while retaining essential functionality, especially when implemented with other power-saving features and techniques.

This application note describes the PSoC 4 low-power modes, provides information on active mode power-saving methods, and discusses other low-power considerations.
