→Low-power RTC example
==Low-power RTC example==
From the point of view of power status, AXELULite SOM can operate in [[Power consumption (AXELULite)|This articledifferent modes]] deals with power consumption of AXELULite SOM. Power consumption When operating in SNVS mode , power comnsumption may be relatively high if:
*iMX6UL RTC is the only part that actually needs to be powered
*SNVS domain is powered by a limited-capacity energy storage device, such as coin cell Lithium battery or supercap.
In this case it is suggested to consider the use of an external low-power RTC instead.
AXELULite adapter integrates such an RTC (ST M41T83)that allows the user to compare this solution with respect to the one based on iMX6UL native RTC. Please note that, when the system is powered offnad the extarnal RTC is used, '''SNVS domain is not powered at all because rechargeable coin cell is connected to external RTC M41T83 only'''.
