Anyone have any ideas what this might be caused by? It could always be my multimeter, I've certainly been brought low by dodgy measuring equipment in the past. I dont think it is, but it would be nice to have someone else replecate the readings (Uwe's readins of 13mA saving tally pretty closely with mine tho .. ). Other than this; the values given in the datasheet are typical, and maximum values. No minimum is given. I would not be supprised to find the current consumption of the SH1 is somewhat lower than 60mA whilst operating (disregarding any current consumed by port status), and this causes the difference between the measured 15mA full sleep, and the documented 20mA. The standby is strange tho. I couldnt really imagine the standard operating current of the SH1 being low enough to explain the 30mA discrepency between measured and documented values. I can only really suggest that the fact that most of the port pins go to high impedance in standby mode results in excess current draw elsewhere in the circuit. > 6k_schematic.pdf still looks wrong when I'm awake.

The guy who drew them up should be shot .... *cough* I'll trace out the NMI connection on the player, and see if I can see any source for the excess current draw in standby.
