Backup Mode
Figure 5-3.
Active mode is the normal running mode with the core clock running from the fast RC oscillator,
the main crystal oscillator or the PLLA. The power management controller can be used to adapt
the frequency and to disable the peripheral clocks.
The various low power modes of the SAM3S16 are described below.
The purpose of the backup mode is to achieve the lowest power consumption possible in a sys-
tem which is performing periodic wake-ups to perform tasks but not requiring fast startup time
(<0.1ms).
The Supply Controller, zero-power power-on reset, RTT, RTC, Backup registers and 32 kHz
oscillator (RC or crystal oscillator selected by software in the Supply Controller) are running. The
regulator and the core supply are off.
Backup mode is based on the Cortex-M3 deepsleep mode with the voltage regulator disabled.
The SAM3S16 can be awakened from this mode through WUP0-15 pins, the supply monitor
(SM), the RTT or RTC wake-up event.
Backup mode is entered by using WFE instructions with the SLEEPDEEP bit in the System Con-
trol Register of the Cortex-M3 set to 1. (See the Power management description in the ARM
Cortex M3 Processor section of the product datasheet).
Exit from Backup mode happens if one of the following enable wake-up events occurs:
Main Supply
Backup Battery

ON/OFF

LDO
Note: The two diodes provide a “switchover circuit” (for illustration purpose)
between the backup battery and the main supply when the system is put in
backup mode.
