LOW POWER STANDBY MODE
If all the bits in registers 26h and 24h are set, then the WM9712L is in low-power standby mode and
consumes very little current. A 1MΩ resistor string remains connected across AVDD to generate
VREF. This is necessary if the on-chip analogue comparators are used (see “Battery Alarm and
Battery Measurement” section), and helps shorten the delay between wake-up and playback
readiness. If VREF is not required, the 1MΩ resistor string can be disabled by setting the SVD bit,
reducing current consumption further.
Table 43 Disabling VREF (for lowest possible power consumption)
SAVING POWER AT LOW SUPPLY VOLTAGES
The analogue supplies to the WM9712L can run from 1.8V to 3.6V. By default, all analogue circuitry
on the IC is optimized to run at 3.3V. This set-up is also good for all other supply voltages down to
1.8V. However, at lower voltages, it is possible to save power by reducing the internal bias currents
used in the analogue circuitry. This is controlled as shown below.
