[MQX4.1] K20D50M Problem Exiting VLPR mode

huishao2 — Fri, 22 Jan 2016 18:01:13 GMT

Hi-

My board is based on MK20DX128VFM5 and powered my MQX4.1.1.

Testing low power mode using VLPR by following demo code from Freescale_MQX_4_1\mqx\examples\lowpower. What I can see is the current consumption is decreased by 20mA on entering VLPR mode. But I can't get it back to RUN mode by using MQX APIs in the demo code. Here are what I used:

enter VLPR:

_lpm_set_clock_configuration(BSP_CLOCK_CONFIGURATION_2MHZ);

_lpm_set_operation_mode (LPM_OPERATION_MODE_WAIT);

exit VLPR:

_lpm_set_operation_mode (LPM_OPERATION_MODE_RUN);

_lpm_set_clock_configuration(BSP_CLOCK_CONFIGURATION_DEFAULT);

THe code above crashed in API _lpm_set_clock_configuration(BSP_CLOCK_CONFIGURATION_DEFAULT), what is the reason for it?

How can I verify the ARM core is running at 4MHz?

Another question is, since my application enters VLPR mode immediately after power on, the IAR used can't JTAG it to load a new code in because VLPR prevents from FLASH programming. Any solution to it?

Thanks!

Hui

some more info I just got from debugging:

My silicon SIM_SDID is 0x3012

prints on silicon is 3N86B

On resuming back to RUN mode, the processor hangs when it migrates from FBI to FBE mode in Cpu_SetMCGModePBE() of bsp_cm.c:

...

/* MCG_C1: CLKS=2,FRDIV=3,IREFS=0,IRCLKEN=0,IREFSTEN=0 */

MCG_C1 = (uint8_t)0x98U;

Hello,

Please check the below thread: MQX Low Power Mode: stop from wait

Let me know if this helps!!!

Have a great day,

Hi Sol

Thanks for your help. I worked around it by setting MCG_G2 to 0x25U (high gain to low power) so that my external crystal circuit can start oscillation again on the way back to RUN mode.
