Hello,

I am evaluating FX3 for a new device we are developing. Our device is battery powered so low power mode is crucial.

I want a simple wake-up on GPIO interrupt. The datasheet (page 11) has a section describing the sleep modes and the exit methods.

The screenshot below shows the Standby Mode (L3) which I am interested in. In the exit methods (right most column) there is no mention for GPIO interrupts.

The technical reference manual (page 277) for the FX3 states that GPIO[44,47,34] can wake-up the device from standby mode.

I just want to make sure that the above mentioned GPIOs can indeed wake-up the device from standby mode. Or I am missing something ?

If that is the case then I think the datasheet is misguiding a little. It should either enumerate all the exit methods or state that more methods are shown in the Technical manual.

Thanks,

Hello,

The GPIO pins 44, 47 and 34 have special meaning in FX3S as Card Insertion, S1_SD1 and S0_SD1 respectively and function as wake-up sources for the stand-by mode. But, in case of FX3, these are normal GPIO pins and cannot be used as a wake-up source. The UART-CTS pin can instead be used.

Best regards,

Thank you, although disappointing for my application. Didn't want to believe that it didn't have GPIO wake-up.
