STM32平台FreeRTOS低功耗模式设计指南

1. STM32F105RBT6 的三种低功耗模式

1.1 sleep睡眠模式、stop停机模式、standby 待机模式

1.2 STM32中文参考手册有介绍STM32 低功耗模式的介绍

2. FreeRTOS 采用的是时间片轮转的抢占式任务调度机制,其低功耗设计思路一般是:

① 当运行空闲任务( IDLE任务)的时候就进入低功耗模式
② 在合适的时机,通过中断或者外部事件再唤醒MCU,退出低功耗模式
③ 对于STM32 系列单片机而言,systick 时间片如果设置的是1 ms,那么每隔1 ms 会将产生一个系统中断,可能会将MCU 从低功耗模式唤醒,如果MCU 频繁的进入、退出low power mode,MCU无法进入深度睡眠deep sleep,这是不合理的

3. FreeRTOS 给出了一种低功耗设计模式:Tickless Idle Mode

4. Tickless Idle Mode 的原理及实现

低功耗就是让单片机睡觉,只不过睡觉有很多种睡法,讲究人睡觉也讲究

4.1 情景分析


上图是任务调度示意图,横轴是时间轴,T1,T2,T3,T4是FreeRTOS 的时间片基准,FreeRTOS时间片一般是 1ms,产生一个systick 中断,有四个任务,分别是Task A、B、C、D
Task A、B、D 是周期性任务,例如三个LED灯,每隔100ms 亮一次
Task C 是突发性任务,例如,按键事件,按一下按键就产生一个外部事件
在两两任务之间有一个间隙,这个时候会运行空闲任务,Idle1,Idle2,Idle3,Idle4

4.1.1 Idle1 期间有一个systick 中断T1

运行完Task A后立马运行空闲任务,过了一会来了T1 中断,把MCU 又给唤醒了,然后又立马进入idle状态,过了一会后运行Task B,这个时候的T1 就是不合理的,就好像你在睡觉,然后我一脚把你踢醒,然后我跑了,你又接着睡,睡的很不爽

4.1.2 Idle2 期间可以一直睡觉,我不打你,你就可以睡的很爽了
4.1.3 Idle3 也可以一直睡觉,我也不打你,但是睡的时间太短了,就没必要睡了

干完task C,立马睡觉,然后又立马干task D,还没睡一会就又要起来干活(运行Task D),就像有点公司午睡只有半个小时一样,那还睡个毛,所以是否睡觉,什么时候睡觉,睡多久,睡多深,眯一会还是睡死,需要设计一套策略

4.1.4 和 Idle1 一样情况

5. Tickless Idle Mode 的软件设计原理

设计思想在于尽可能的让MCU 在运行空闲任务的时候进入低功耗模式,没事做就睡觉,节省粮食,少呼吸点空气吧你
① 合理的进入低功耗模式,避免频繁的在低功耗模式和运行模式之间进行切换,睡一下起来干活,睡一下起来干活很烦的,可以通过调整系统定时器中断触发时间长短来调整(systick中断),调一下systick 的值,然后测试一下功耗,调一下,测一下功耗。
Tickless:减少systick,原来会产生systick 的位置,现在不产生systick 中断,往后挪,增大时间片长度(或减小)
② 当MCU 被唤醒时,通过某种方式为系统时钟提供补偿,唤醒的两种方式:系统时钟中断,外部事件中断,可以通过运行在低功耗模式下的某种定时器来计算出MCU处于低功耗模式下的时间,在MCU唤醒后对系统时间进行软件补偿
③ 低功耗时间补偿策略,根据mcu低功耗特性和具体应用场景而定,可参考STM32 中文参考手册的低功耗模式章节

6. FreeRTOS 低功耗模式Tickless Mode 使能宏开关

置1 打开,置0 关闭

#define configUSE_TICKLESS_IDLE    1

7. FreeRTOS 创建空闲任务, 系统自动调度的,不需要人为调度

FreeRTOS 在启动任务调度的时候会创建一个空闲任务,没事干的时候就一直运行这个任务,摸鱼,老板来了就干活,老板一走就摸鱼任务

7.2 空闲任务宏定义 portTASK_FUNCTION

/*
 * The Idle task.

 * The portTASK_FUNCTION() macro is used to allow port/compiler specific language extensions. The equivalent prototype for this
 function is:
 *

static portTASK_FUNCTION(prvIdleTask, pvParameters)
{
    (void)pvParameters;

    /*This is the FreeRTOS idle task, which is created automatically when the scheduler is started*/

        prvCheckTasksWaitingTermination();

#if (0 == configUSE_PREEMPTION)
{
        /* If we are not using preemption we keep forcing a task switch to see if any other task has become available. If we are using
         * preemption we don't need to do this as any task becoming available will automatically get the processor anyway

        taskYIELD();
}
#endif /* configUSE_PREEMPTION */

#if ((1 == configUSE_PREEMPTION) && (1 == configIDLE_SHOULD_YIELD))
{
        /* When using preemption tasks of equal priority will be timesliced. If a task that is sharing the idle priority is ready
         * to run then the idle task should yield before the end of the timeslice.

         * A critical region is not required here as we are just reading from the list, and an occasional incorrect value will not
         * matter. If the ready list at the idle priority contains more than one task then a task other than the idle task is ready
         * to execute.
         */
        if (listCURRENT_LIST_LENGTH(&(pxReadyTasksLists[tskIDLE_PRIORITY])) > (UBaseType_t)1)
        {
            taskYIELD();
        }
        else
        {
            mtCOVERAGE_TEST_MARKER();
        }
}
#endif /* ((configUSE_PREEMPTION == 1) && (configIDLE_SHOULD_YIELD == 1)) */

#if (1 == configUSE_IDLE_HOOK)
{
        extern void vApplicationIdleHook(void);

        /* Call the user defined function from within the idle task. This allows the application designer to add background
         * functionality without the overhead of a separate task. NOTE: vApplicationIdleHook() MUST NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES,

        vApplicationIdleHook();
}
#endif /* configUSE_IDLE_HOOK */

/* This conditional compilation should use inequality to 0, not equality to 1.  This is to ensure portSUPPRESS_TICKS_AND_SLEEP()
 * is called when user defined low power mode	implementations require configUSE_TICKLESS_IDLE to be set to a value other than 1.
 */
#if (configUSE_TICKLESS_IDLE != 0)
{
        TickType_t xExpectedIdleTime;

        /* It is not desirable to suspend then resume the scheduler on each iteration of the idle task.  Therefore, a preliminary
         * test of the expected idle time is performed without the scheduler suspended.  The result here is not necessarily valid.
         */
        xExpectedIdleTime = prvGetExpectedIdleTime();

        if (xExpectedIdleTime >= configEXPECTED_IDLE_TIME_BEFORE_SLEEP)
        {
            vTaskSuspendAll();
            {

        }

    }

10. 降低功耗的措施

为了节省功耗,可以将未使用的 GPIO 口设置为低功耗状态。以下是一些常见的方法:
① 输入模式:将未使用的 GPIO 口设置为输入模式,不使用推挽输出或开漏输出。这样可以减少功耗,因为输入模式下的电流消耗较低。
② 禁用上拉和下拉:如果未使用的 GPIO 口被设置为输入模式,确保禁用了上拉电阻和下拉电阻。禁用这些电阻可以降低静态电流消耗。
③ 关闭输入缓冲器:对于不需要读取外部信号的 GPIO 口,可以关闭输入缓冲器以减少功耗。这可以通过配置寄存器来实现,具体方法可能因芯片型号而有所不同。
④ 关闭输出驱动器:如果未使用的 GPIO 口被设置为输出模式,可以将输出驱动器关闭或调整为较低的驱动能力。这可以降低功耗并减少与其他电路的干扰。
⑤ 动态切换电源:如果可能,将未使用的 GPIO 口连接到外部电源开关或电源选择电路上。通过动态切换电源,可以完全断开或切换到更低功耗的电源,从而实现更高的功耗节省效果。
⑥ 将未使用的模块时钟关闭
⑦ 降低主频,需要综合考虑,主频降低,性能会下将,数据处理会变慢
⑧ 降低性能,这个需要综合考虑,需要在性能要求和功耗要求之间取得平衡
⑨ 选择不同的硬件,这个需要硬件攻城狮参与选型
每个芯片的 GPIO 管理方式和功耗优化方法可能会有所不同,查阅芯片制造商提供的技术参考手册和数据手册,以获得更详细和针对性的操作指南。
