¹ Power consumption measurements have been done in iWave’s i.MX6 Quad CPU based Qseven PMIC SOM (iW-
G15M-Q704-3D001G-E004G-LID) with iWave’s Generic Qseven Carrier board running iWave’s Linux3.10 BSP (iW-
PRDVZ-RN-01-R5.0-REL1.0-Linux3.10).
² Only i.MX6 CPU related power management is implemented in the BSP for low power mode.
³ i.MX6 RTC controller draws more power from VCC_RTC coin cell power input and so could drain the coin cell faster.
