sleep w memory rentention problem

[mr_creosote]

hi,

i'm not able to have the nRF24LE1 go to sleep. I'm using the example at the link below, to which I've added code for UART and ADC usage. Is there a way to end the UART (the opposite of the hal_uart_init() function)?

I need the LE1 to wake up, take an analog reading, write it to the UART, then go to sleep for x seconds. I'd like it to sleep for 10 seconds but it seems 2 is the maximum I can get with this MUP.

code example:

www.nordicsemi.com/.../How-to-setup-memory-retention-timers-on-on-the-nRF24LE1

In the example, what do these lines do?

IEN1 = 0x20; EA = 1;

// Go to standby mode and wait for RTC interrupt

PWRDWN = 0x07; // Clear power down

PWRDWN = 0x00;

Thanks!

Hi,

I understand your questions, but I think it will be difficult for you to start developing your project on a rather old 8-bit MCU which we are no longer actively updating the SDK or documentation, and have limited debugging.

I would recommend you to check out the nRF5232 or nRF51822 instead. These two chips are being updated regularly with both new documentation and SDK.

Best regards,

Kenneth
