System OFF

nRF93M1 Datasheet

In System OFF, core system functionality is powered down and ongoing tasks are terminated. SRAM is not retained. Network registration is retained, and the module wakes from a defined set of sources.

Wake-up sources from System OFF:

  • UART1 incoming data, if UART1 baud rate is configured to 9600 bps or lower before entering sleep.
  • USB VBUS detect, wake when USB power is presented.
  • POWERKEY signal pulled low.
  • Internal paging timer, modem-internal wake on the next configured PSM or eDRX paging occasion.
  • SIM hot-swap detect, wake when SIM presence transitions on a slot configured for detection.
Note: The System OFF configuration set by AT%SYSOFF=1 survives nRESET and a POWERKEY power cycle. After a reset the module returns to System OFF rather than to normal operation. Disable System OFF with AT%SYSOFF=0 before changing the UART configuration.
