Power control (PWR) RM0033
68/1381 RM0033 Rev 9
The voltage regulator is always enabled after Reset. It works in three different modes
depending on the application modes.
• In Run mode, the regulator supplies full power to the 1.2 V domain (core, memories
and digital peripherals).
• In Stop mode the regulator supplies low power to the 1.2 V domain, preserving the
content of registers and internal SRAM.
• In Standby mode, the regulator is powered down. The content of the registers and
SRAM are lost except for the Standby circuitry and the backup domain.
Note: Depending on the selected package, the voltage regulator can be deactivated. For more
details, refer to the Voltage regulator section in STM32F2xx datasheets.
