Thanks. I think I finally understand. Power-down is the most power-conservative state, and only pin change, TWI address match, and the WDT can wake it up. Power-save is the next lowest power mode, and allows a real-time clock to keep running. Standby is next, but doesn't allow an RTC. Extended standby is next ADCNRM Idle The last two sleep modes can be used during EEPROM writes, ADC operations, and timer operation. The table doesn't really order it in terms of power consumption. -- Rick _______________________________________________ AVR-chat mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/avr-chat
