    Noting I've moved your question to the MSP Forum for someone to assist. For future reference any MSP430 related questions you can search for solutions here in this Forum (direct link) or post a question.

    The so-called "low power mode 3" simply means:
    (1) You stopped MCLK and the CPU is not running
    (2) You stopped SMCLK and there is nothing that is using SMCLK
    Other than the above, there is no other power saving and nothing else cares about what that "mode" is. If a port pin is sourcing or sinking current, it will still do that by exactly the same amount.

    This is like calling the ignition-off position of a automobile as "low power mode". It cuts off the engine. The lights, the ratio, etc. still use the same amount of power as before.
