Two idle configurations have been tested, detailed in the following sections. Nomenclature is the same used in the processor's data sheet<ref name="IMX6ULIEC">Freescale Semiconductor, ''i.MX 6UltraLite Applications Processors for Industrial Products Data Sheet'', Rev. 1, 04/2016</ref>.

In this case the default <code>interactive</code> governor is used.

===Low-power idle===

In this case the <code>powersave</code> governor is used. As described in ''i.MX 6UltraLite Power Consumption Measurement'' application note<ref name="AN5170">NXP Semiconductors, ''i.MX 6UltraLite Power Consumption Measurement'', Rev. 1, 04/2016</ref>, the use of this governor allows to reduce power consumption significantly in idle condition.

==Deep-sleep mode (aka ''suspend'')==
