Application note

Power management in STM8L and STM8AL

Introduction

This document is intended for application designers who require a hardware implementation

overview of low power modes in the STM8L and STM8AL product families (see Table 1 for

applicable products). It shows how to use the STM8L and STM8AL devices in these modes,

explains differences between different modes and gives several examples of how to select

the best mode for your application needs.

This document is not intended to replace the STM8L and STM8AL datasheets. All values

given in this document are for guidance only. Please refer to the related datasheets to get

guaranteed values.
