Sleep mode during program execution is LPM3. With the radio off I have personally and recently measured this at 6uA. Deep sleep means LPM4 wich can only be woke from an external reset, which is even lower power.

Hi Cory You described this mode as "deep sleep". I was curious, whether this one would come near the current consumption of the one described in the tmote sky datasheet as mcu standby, but i measured still 35 μA (not 5.1μA) on a tmote right out of the box (with this led glow program installed). Does anyone know, why these numbers do not agree? Regards Roman Cory Sharp wrote: > On 5/18/06, Leijun Huang <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >> Hello, >> >> I am new to telosb motes.
