Figure 12: Description of the VCC current consumption profile versus time when power saving is enabled: the module is in idle
mode and periodically wakes up to active mode to monitor the paging channel for paging block reception
1.5.3.3 Current consumption profiles Fixed active mode (power saving disabled)
Power saving configuration is by default disabled, or it can be disabled using the appropriate AT command (refer
to u-blox 2G GSM/GPRS AT Commands Manual [2], AT+UPSV command). When power saving is disabled, the
module doesn’t automatically enter idle-mode whenever possible: the module remains in active mode.
The module processor core is activated during active-mode, and the 26 MHz reference clock frequency is used.
An example of the current consumption profile of the data module when power saving is disabled is shown in
Figure 13: the module is registered with the network, active-mode is maintained, and the receiver and the DSP
are periodically activated to monitor the paging channel for paging block reception.
