Any components that are not needed for operation via battery or via the 3.3 V power pin are isolated within the 5 V power path, and are totally shut down when no USB cable is plugged in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIn fact, even the power \u0026amp; charge LEDs are shut down when no 5 V power source is present.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDeep sleep has been optimised for all development platforms, and although it has been seen to go as low as 10 uA, the official current rating in deep sleep is 20 uA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eTinyPICO includes an onboard APA102 RGB LED that has a quiescent current of 1 mA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThankfully there is a solution for deep sleep. GPIO13 controls the power to the APA102 using a P-Channel MOSFET via a high-side switch that can (along with smoother IO settings) shut down the power to the APA102 for you. It’s essential to do this before going into deep sleep to ensure the lowest current draw possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUnexpected Maker has created some helper functions for you in their TinyPICO MicroPython \u0026amp; Arduino helper libraries to make this easy. Please check the code in the platform you use to understand how to shut down the APA102 correctly as just pulling GPIO13 high is not enough.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOpen Source\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUnexpected Maker has made TinyPICO hardware and software open source.
