To unveils conserve power, fells in the device has specialoperational modes that allow designers to manage power consumption, based on theneeds of their applications, by switching between these modes. For instance, theenergy-saving standby mode acts as the default, and active mode occurs onlyduring measurement before returning to standby mode.
