HIBERNATE (SystemSleepMode)

sleep() [ Sleep ]

// EXAMPLE
SystemSleepConfiguration config;
config.mode(SystemSleepMode::HIBERNATE)
      .gpio(WKP, RISING);
System.sleep(config);

The SystemSleepMode::HIBERNATE mode is the similar to the classic SLEEP_MODE_DEEP. It is the lowest power mode, however there are limited ways you can wake:

Wake Mode	Gen 2	Gen 3	Gen 4
GPIO	WKP RISING Only	✓	WKP
Time (RTC)	✓	¹	✓
Analog		✓

¹Tracker SoM can wake from RTC in HIBERNATE mode. Other Gen 3 devices cannot.

Typical power consumption in hibernate sleep mode, based on the wakeup source:

Device	GPIO	RTC
P2	114 uA	115 uA
M404	44 uA	43 uA
M524	26 uA	27 uA
T523 Eval	103 uA	95 uA
T402 Eval	103 uA	95 uA
Boron 2G/3G	146 uA	n/a
Boron LTE	106 uA	n/a
B402 SoM	26 uA	n/a
B523 SoM	30 uA	n/a
Argon	65 uA	n/a
Electron	114 uA	114 uA
Photon	114 uA	114 uA

In this mode on wake, device is reset, running setup() again.

Gen 3 Devices (nRF52) (B-Series SoM, Tracker SoM, Tracker One, Boron, Argon, and E404X):

On the Argon, Boron, B-Series SoM, and E404X you can only wake by pin, not by time, in HIBERNATE mode.
On the Tracker SoM, Tracker One, and Monitor One, you can wake by time from HIBERNATE mode using the hardware RTC (AM1805).
You can wake from HIBERNATE (SLEEP_MODE_DEEP) on any GPIO pin, on RISING, FALLING, or CHANGE, not just WKP/D8 with Device OS 2.0.0 and later on Gen 3 devices.
Since the difference in current consumption is so small between HIBERNATE and ULTRA_LOW_POWER, using ULTRA_LOW_POWER is a good alternative if you wish to wake based on time on Gen 3 devices. The difference is 106 uA vs. 127 uA on the Boron LTE, for example.
GPIO are kept on; OUTPUT pins retain their HIGH or LOW voltage level during sleep.
Gen 3 devices (Argon, Boron, B-Series SoM, E404X, Tracker SoM, Tracker One), can wake on analog voltage comparison.

P2 Devices (RTL872x):

The P2 does not support holding a GPIO in OUTPUT mode when in HIBERNATE mode. The pin will go into high impedance mode.
The P2 can only wake from HIBERNATE mode on the pins listed below, RISING, FALLING, or CHANGE.
On the P2, pins S4, S5, and S6 do not support pull-up or pull-down in HIBERNATE sleep mode. Use an external pull resistor if this is required.
The P2 does not support wake on analog, BLE, or UART serial.

Gen 2 Devices (STM32) (E-Series, Electron, Photon, and P2; does not include E404X):

On the Photon, P1, Electron, and E-Series you can only wake on time or WKP RISING in HIBERNATE mode.
GPIO are put into high impedance state before sleep. However, you can use pinMode(INPUT) to disconnect output pins on Gen 2 devices so the same code can be used for both Gen 2 and Gen 3 with HIBERNATE mode.

Cellular Devices (B-Series SoM, Tracker SoM, Tracker One, Boron, E404X, E-Series, and Electron):

On cellular devices, the cellular modem is turned off in HIBERNATE mode. This reduces current consumption but increases the time to reconnect. Also, you should avoid any HIBERNATE period of less than 10 minutes on cellular devices. Since the cellular modem needs to reconnect to the cellular network on wake, your mobile carrier may ban your SIM card from the network for aggressive reconnection if you reconnect more than approximately 6 times per hour.
