Unless otherwise specified, data in the “Typ.” column is at TA = 25°C and VDD = 3.0V. These parameters are not tested and are for design guidance only.

Note:
  1. The module's current consumption only. To calculate the total internal power consumption of the microcontroller, add the power consumption values of all the peripherals and the clock sources used to the base power consumption given in 35.5. Power Consumption.
  2. Average power consumption with the following conditions:
    • Single-ended 12-bit ADC
    • ADC active in Free Running mode
    • CLK_ADC = 1 MHz
    • Device in Idle sleep mode
