Description

The device continues to execute instructions, but at the reduced rate of the
CLKIN frequency divided by 16 (that is, in LOPOWER mode, a ’C3x device that
supports this mode with a CLKIN frequency of 32 MHz performs in the same
way as a 2-MHz ’C3x device, which has an instruction-cycle time of 1000 ns).
This allows for low-power operation.

The ’C3x CPUs slow down during the read phase of the LOPOWER instruc-
tion. To exit the LOPOWER power-down mode, invoke the MAXSPEED
instruction (opcode = 1080 0000 h). The ’C3x resumes full-speed operation
during the read phase of the MAXSPEED instruction.

Do not run the IDLE2 instruction in the LOPOWER mode.
