Power Modes

Two power-down modes are available to reduce the AT83C24 power consumption (see STUT-
DOWN bit in CONFIG1 register and LP bits in CONFIG3 register).

To enter in the mode number 4 (see Table 5), the sequence is the following:

First select the Low-power mode by setting the LP bit

The activation of the SHUTDOWN bit can then be done.

The AT83C24 exits Power-down if a software/hardware reset is done or if SHUTDOWN bit is
cleared. The AT83C24 is then active immediately.

Either a hardware reset or a TWI command clearing the SHUTDOWN bit can cause an exit from
Power-down. The internal registers retain their value during the shutdown mode.

In Power-down mode, the device is sleeping and waiting for a wake up condition.

To reduce power consumption, the User should stop the clock on the CLK input after setting the
SHUTDOWN bit. The clock can be enabled again just before exiting SHUTDOWN (at least 10
µs before a START bit on SDA).
