Current consumption overview
Note: Values in this guide
are taken from the appro-
priate product specifi-
cation documents (PSDs)
(listed in Table 1-2 on
page 13)—in the case of a
discrepancy between this
document and the relevant
PSD, use the value listed
in the PSD.
Electrical requirements and current specifications are listed in the following
tables:
• Tabl e 2- 3 on page 27 (MC57xx)
• Tabl e 2- 4 on page 28 (MC8201)
• Tabl e 2- 5 on page 29 (MC8700)
• Tabl e 2- 6 on page 30 (MC8775/MC8775V)
• Tabl e 2- 7 on page 31 (MC8780/MC8781)
• Tabl e 2- 8 on page 32 (MC8790/MC8790V/MC8791V/MC8792V)
• Tabl e 2- 9 on page 33 (MC8795V)
These specifications identify minimum, typical, and maximum current drain for
each operating mode (while in the Normal state):
• Transmit
• Receive
• Sleep
• Deep sleep
• Shutdown
The current consumption values in these tables were measured using a supply
voltage of 3.3 V (3.8 V for MC8201). The device’s supply voltage is 3.0–3.6 V with
a typical voltage of 3.3 V (3.4–4.2 V with a typical voltage of 3.8 V for MC8201).
Note: For sleep modes, the values shown are for the actual sleep state. The module
wakes at intervals to control timing and check for traffic—at these moments the current
consumption is higher.

CDMA Transmitting (MC5728V)
Current depends on the radio band in use and the
network’s control of the module’s output power.
The ‘Typical’ value is based on:
• 40% full rate, and
• 60% 1/8
th
rate over -35 to +23.5 dBm.
