Re: [avr-chat] What happens to Timer 1 PWM in sleep?

[Joerg Wunsch]

In article <address@hidden> you write:

>don't see the difference between Standby and Extended Standby

``... In Standby mode, the Crystal/Resonator Oscillator is running
while the rest of the device is sleeping. This allows very fast
start-up combined with low power consumption. In Extended Standby
mode, both the main Oscillator and the Asynchronous Timer continue to
run.''

>The OC1B output is the same, though.

No idea whether the CPU/IO clock is halted in a synchronized way or
not, but it's quite possible.  You might try making a support call to
Atmel for clarity.

By turning PWM off before going asleep, and explicitly setting the pin
to low, you'll certainly be on the safe side.
