Operation in Low Power Modes
The SSD block can be configured for lower MCU power consumption in three different ways.
•
Stop mode powers down the sigma-delta converter and halts clock to the modulus counter. Exit
from Stop enables the sigma-delta converter and the clock to the modulus counter but due to the
converter recovery time, the integration result should be ignored.
•
Wait mode with SSDWAI bit set powers down the sigma-delta converter and halts the clock to the
modulus counter. Exit from Wait enables the sigma-delta converter and clock to the modulus
counter but due to the converter recovery time, the integration result should be ignored.
•
Clearing SDCPU bit powers down the sigma-delta converter.
