The RPU MPCore includes several power modes and power island states.

Power Modes

The CPUs include three power management states.
  • Run
  • Standby
  • Shutdown
Each power level provides decreasing levels of power consumption, but increases the entry and exit requirements.

The following table lists the power management modes.
