CC
VERSUS FREQUENCY AND VOLTAGE
The current (I
CC
) consumption of the processor is
essentially composed of two components I
PD
and
I
CCS
I
PD
is the quiescent current that represents internal
device leakage and is measured with all inputs or
floating outputs at GND or V
CC
(no clock applied to
the device) I
PD
is equal to the Powerdown current
and is typically less than 50 mA
I
CCS
is the switching current used to charge and
discharge parasitic device capacitance when chang-
ing logic levels Since I
CCS
is typically much greater
than I
PD
I
PD
can often be ignored when calculating
I
CC
I
CCS
is related to the voltage and frequency at which
the device is operating It is given by the formula

Measuring C
DEV
on a device like the 80C186EA
would be difficult Instead C
DEV
is calculated using
the above formula by measuring I
CC
at a known V
CC
and frequency (see Table 11) Using this C

val-
ue I
CC
can be calculated at any voltage and fre-
quency within the specified operating range

PDTMR PIN DELAY CALCULATION
The PDTMR pin provides a delay between the as-
sertion of NMI and the enabling of the internal
clocks when exiting Powerdown A delay is required
only when using the on-chip oscillator to allow the
crystal or resonator circuit time to stabilize
NOTE
The PDTMR pin function does not apply when
RESIN is asserted (i e a device reset during Pow-
erdown is similar to a cold reset and RESIN must
remain active until after the oscillator has stabi-
lized)
To calculate the value of capacitor required to pro-
vide a desired delay use the equation

tive values
NOTE
The above equation applies to delay times greater
than 10 ms and will compute the TYPICAL capaci-
tance needed to achieve the desired delay A delay
variance of
a
50% or
b
25% can occur due to
temperature
voltage
and device process ex-
tremes In general higher V
CC
and or lower tem-
perature will decrease delay time while lower V
CC
and or higher temperature will increase delay time
