cannot put C6748 into DEEPSLEEP.

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: OMAPL138

Dear TI,

I've seen several guys in this forum able to put OMAPL138 into deep sleep successfully. However, I don't know why I cannot put my customized C6748 board into DEEPSLEEP. I built and ran the code in Sleep6x.zip but instead of using Power_RTC_ALARM, I used Power_EXTERNAL. After Power_sleepDSP has called, I put nDEEPSLEEP pin into low but see that nothing changes on the current meter. When I put it into high again, nothing happens too and the board is not waken up. The current after Power_sleepDSP has called is 90mA which is unacceptably high for DEEPSLEEP. So I guess that DEEPSLEEP has not been activated by nDEEPSLEEP pin yet.

For testing, I configured the pin as GPIO0_8 input and tried to externally control the pin on and off. GPIOPinRead showed the correct value. but I don't know why that pin cannot act as nDEEPSLEEP.

Could you give me some hint on what is the problem? Do I need to do something special with the hardware? By the way, nDEEPSLEEP pin is controlled by a switch manually.

Thank you very much,

Best regards,

Tuyen Nguyen
