- Figure 1. This circuit withholds power from the attached microcontroller until it detects an IR transmission. While in standby mode, its quiescent current is under 2 μA
- Figure 2. When the Figure 1 circuit detects an IR signal, it powers and resets the microcontroller. After the IR transmission ends, the microcontroller suspends itself by releasing the Hold line
