3.3.2.2 Leakage Current in Power Down Mode

The leakage current in Power Down mode varies depending on the following conditions:

• If the supply voltage at BATT+ was disconnected and then applied again without starting

up the TC65 module, the leakage current ranges between 90µA and 100µA.

• If the TC65 module is started and afterwards powered down with AT^SMSO, then the

leakage current is only 50µA.

Therefore, in order to minimize the leakage current take care to start up the module at least

once before it is powered down.
