Standby Modes
Standby mode is the mode where only low power backup domain is running. It means VBAT must
be always maintain. It allows to have very low current consumption and fast GNSS reacquisition
at the end of the standby time due to RTC.
The PNT-SG3FS offers three different standby modes:
♦
Hardware OFF standby
♦
Hardware standby
♦
Software standby
As IO buffers are not supplied during standby mode, it is important to keep all IO without external
voltage to avoid any current leakage. UART-RX is an exception that can be left high.
Please refer to the PNT-SG3FS datasheet and software user guide for more information on these
standby modes.
