System Basis Chips (SBCs) allow designers the opportunity to integrate power management, protection features, and CAN/LIN communication into one single package unified by a single control system. These devices also have the benefit of being low-power with many being able to achieve <100uA of current during sleep mode, which is critical for battery applications. However, the SBC cannot always be in sleep mode and must switch between modes to complete the designed tasks. By default, most SBCs cannot communicate through a SPI bus during sleep mode, so the question is asked: how does the SBC wake up after it is asleep? This is where the WAKE functionality of SBCs is used and this document gives an overview of commonly used wake methods for various SBCs.
