This low power mode implementation realizes processor power consumption less than 0.1 mW while keeping LPDDR2 memory in self refresh consuming ~ 1.6 mW. The system solution is comprised of AM437x Sitara processor, LPDDR2 memory and TPS65218 power management IC and optimized for new low power mode along with support for legacy low power modes. The processor power is minimized by turning off all the processor power supplies except RTC power supply. System power state transitions including power supply control can be performed by single interface signal (PMIC_PWR_EN signal) with PMIC register programming.
A fully assembled board has been developed for testing and performance validation only, and is not available for sale.
