Power Mangement
on the nRF24E1
The nRF24E1 microcontroller on Eco is capable of limited power management.
Power Modes of the MCU core:
-Full on (3mA)
-Idle / stop: the CPU is suspended but the clock is still running
-Power down: (2µA) the CPU is suspended; the clock is also stopped, although there is a 0.5--2.5ms shutdown display and a 1.0ms delay, assuming wake-up by RTC interrupt
Power Modes of the nRF2401 radio:
-Tx mode: 11.8mA@-20dBm, 12.4mA@-10dBm, 13.5mA@-5dBm, 1mA@0dBm
-Rx mode: 18mA@250Kbps, 19mA@1Mbps
-Standby: 32µA@16MHz
-Power-off: < 1µA
