电源管理

[English]

概述

ESP-IDF 中集成的电源管理算法可以根据应用程序组件的需求,调整外围总线 (APB) 频率和 CPU 频率,并使芯片进入 Light-sleep 模式,尽可能减少运行应用程序的功耗。

应用程序组件可以通过创建和获取电源管理锁来控制功耗。

例如:

  • 对于从 APB 获得时钟频率的外设,其驱动可以要求在使用该外设时,将 APB 频率设置为 80 MHz。

  • RTOS 可以要求 CPU 在有任务准备开始运行时以最高配置频率工作。

  • 一些外设可能需要中断才能启用,因此其驱动也会要求禁用 Light-sleep 模式。

请求较高的 APB 频率或 CPU 频率以及禁用 Light-sleep 模式会增加功耗,因此请将组件使用的电源管理锁降到最少。

电源管理配置

编译时可使用 CONFIG_PM_ENABLE 选项启用电源管理功能。

启用电源管理功能将会增加中断延迟。额外延迟与多个因素有关,例如:CPU 频率、单/双核模式、是否需要进行频率切换等。CPU 频率为 240 MHz 且未启用频率调节时,最小额外延迟为 0.2 us;如果启用频率调节,且在中断入口将频率由 40 MHz 调节至 80 MHz,则最大额外延迟为 40 us。

通过调用 esp_pm_configure() 函数可以在应用程序中启用动态调频 (DFS) 功能和自动 Light-sleep 模式。此函数的参数 esp_pm_config_t 定义了频率调节的相关设置。在此参数结构中,需要初始化以下三个字段:

  • max_freq_mhz:最大 CPU 频率 (MHz),即获取 ESP_PM_CPU_FREQ_MAX 锁后所使用的频率。该字段通常设置为 CONFIG_ESP_DEFAULT_CPU_FREQ_MHZ

  • min_freq_mhz:最小 CPU 频率 (MHz),即未持有电源管理锁时所使用的频率。

    • light_sleep_enable:没有获取任何管理锁时,决定系统是否需要自动进入 Light-sleep 状态 (true/false)。

如果在 menuconfig 中启用了 CONFIG_PM_DFS_INIT_AUTO 选项,最大 CPU 频率将由 CONFIG_ESP_DEFAULT_CPU_FREQ_MHZ 设置决定,最小 CPU 频率将锁定为 XTAL 频率。

备注

自动 Light-sleep 模式基于 FreeRTOS Tickless Idle 功能,因此如果在 menuconfig 中没有启用 CONFIG_FREERTOS_USE_TICKLESS_IDLE 选项,在请求自动 Light-sleep 时,esp_pm_configure() 将会返回 ESP_ERR_NOT_SUPPORTED 错误。

备注

Light-sleep 状态下,外设设有时钟门控,不会产生来自 GPIO 和内部外设的中断。睡眠模式 文档中所提到的唤醒源可用于从 Light-sleep 状态触发唤醒。

电源管理锁

应用程序可以通过获取或释放管理锁来控制电源管理算法。应用程序获取电源管理锁后,电源管理算法的操作将受到下面的限制。释放电源管理锁后,限制解除。

电源管理锁设有获取/释放计数器,如果已多次获取电源管理锁,则需要将电源管理锁释放相同次数以解除限制。

ESP32-C3 支持下表中三种电源管理锁。

电源管理锁

描述

ESP_PM_CPU_FREQ_MAX

请求使用 esp_pm_configure() 将 CPU 频率设置为最大值。ESP32-C3 可以将该值设置为 80 MHz 或 160 MHz。

ESP_PM_APB_FREQ_MAX

请求将 APB 频率设置为最大值,ESP32-C3 支持的最大频率为 80 MHz。

ESP_PM_NO_LIGHT_SLEEP

禁止自动切换至 Light-sleep 模式。

ESP32-C3 电源管理算法

下表列出了启用动态调频时如何切换 CPU 频率和 APB 频率。可以使用 esp_pm_configure()CONFIG_ESP_DEFAULT_CPU_FREQ_MHZ 指定 CPU 最大频率。

CPU 最高频率

电源管理锁获取情况

APB 频率和 CPU 频率

160

获取 ESP_PM_CPU_FREQ_MAX

CPU: 160 MHz
APB: 80 Mhz
获取 ESP_PM_APB_FREQ_MAX,
未获得 ESP_PM_CPU_FREQ_MAX
CPU: 80 MHz
APB: 80 Mhz

使用 esp_pm_configure() 为二者设置最小值

80

获取 ESP_PM_CPU_FREQ_MAX
ESP_PM_APB_FREQ_MAX
CPU: 80 MHz
APB: 80 Mhz

使用 esp_pm_configure() 为二者设置最小值

如果没有获取任何管理锁,调用 esp_pm_configure() 将启动 Light-sleep 模式。Light-sleep 模式持续时间由以下因素决定:

  • 处于阻塞状态的 FreeRTOS 任务数(有限超时)

  • 高分辨率定时器 API 注册的计数器数量

也可以设置 Light-sleep 模式在最近事件(任务解除阻塞,或计时器超时)之前的持续时间,在持续时间结束后再唤醒芯片。

为了跳过不必要的唤醒,可以将 skip_unhandled_events 选项设置为 true 来初始化 esp_timer。带有此标志的定时器不会唤醒系统,有助于减少功耗。

动态调频和外设驱动

启用动态调频后,APB 频率可在一个 RTOS 滴答周期内多次更改。有些外设不受 APB 频率变更的影响,但有些外设可能会出现问题。例如,Timer Group 外设定时器会继续计数,但定时器计数的速度将随 APB 频率的变更而变更。

时钟频率不受 APB 频率影响的外设时钟源通常有 REF_TICK, XTAL, RC_FAST (i.e., RTC_8M)。因此,为了保证外设在 DFS 期间的所有行为一致,建议在上述时钟中选择其一作为外设的时钟源。如果想要了解更多详情可以浏览每个外设 ”API 参考 > 外设 API“ 页面的 “电源管理” 章节。

目前以下外设驱动程序可感知动态调频,并在调频期间使用 ESP_PM_APB_FREQ_MAX 锁:

  • SPI master

  • I2C

  • I2S(如果 APLL 锁在使用中,I2S 则会启用 ESP_PM_NO_LIGHT_SLEEP 锁)

  • SDMMC

启用以下驱动程序时,将占用 ESP_PM_APB_FREQ_MAX 锁:

以下外设驱动程序无法感知动态调频,应用程序需自己获取/释放管理锁:

  • 旧版 Sigma-delta 驱动

  • 旧版定时器驱动 (Timer Group)

Functions

esp_err_t esp_pm_configure(const void *config)

Set implementation-specific power management configuration.

参数

config -- pointer to implementation-specific configuration structure (e.g. esp_pm_config_esp32)

返回

  • ESP_OK on success

  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG if the configuration values are not correct

  • ESP_ERR_NOT_SUPPORTED if certain combination of values is not supported, or if CONFIG_PM_ENABLE is not enabled in sdkconfig

esp_err_t esp_pm_get_configuration(void *config)

Get implementation-specific power management configuration.

参数

config -- pointer to implementation-specific configuration structure (e.g. esp_pm_config_esp32)

返回

  • ESP_OK on success

  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG if the pointer is null

esp_err_t esp_pm_lock_create(esp_pm_lock_type_t lock_type, int arg, const char *name, esp_pm_lock_handle_t *out_handle)

Initialize a lock handle for certain power management parameter.

When lock is created, initially it is not taken. Call esp_pm_lock_acquire to take the lock.

This function must not be called from an ISR.

备注

If the lock_type argument is not valid, it will cause an abort.

参数
  • lock_type -- Power management constraint which the lock should control

  • arg -- argument, value depends on lock_type, see esp_pm_lock_type_t

  • name -- arbitrary string identifying the lock (e.g. "wifi" or "spi"). Used by the esp_pm_dump_locks function to list existing locks. May be set to NULL. If not set to NULL, must point to a string which is valid for the lifetime of the lock.

  • out_handle -- [out] handle returned from this function. Use this handle when calling esp_pm_lock_delete, esp_pm_lock_acquire, esp_pm_lock_release. Must not be NULL.

返回

  • ESP_OK on success

  • ESP_ERR_NO_MEM if the lock structure can not be allocated

  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG if out_handle is NULL

  • ESP_ERR_NOT_SUPPORTED if CONFIG_PM_ENABLE is not enabled in sdkconfig

esp_err_t esp_pm_lock_acquire(esp_pm_lock_handle_t handle)

Take a power management lock.

Once the lock is taken, power management algorithm will not switch to the mode specified in a call to esp_pm_lock_create, or any of the lower power modes (higher numeric values of 'mode').

The lock is recursive, in the sense that if esp_pm_lock_acquire is called a number of times, esp_pm_lock_release has to be called the same number of times in order to release the lock.

This function may be called from an ISR.

This function is not thread-safe w.r.t. calls to other esp_pm_lock_* functions for the same handle.

参数

handle -- handle obtained from esp_pm_lock_create function

返回

  • ESP_OK on success

  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG if the handle is invalid

  • ESP_ERR_NOT_SUPPORTED if CONFIG_PM_ENABLE is not enabled in sdkconfig

esp_err_t esp_pm_lock_release(esp_pm_lock_handle_t handle)

Release the lock taken using esp_pm_lock_acquire.

Call to this functions removes power management restrictions placed when taking the lock.

Locks are recursive, so if esp_pm_lock_acquire is called a number of times, esp_pm_lock_release has to be called the same number of times in order to actually release the lock.

This function may be called from an ISR.

This function is not thread-safe w.r.t. calls to other esp_pm_lock_* functions for the same handle.

参数

handle -- handle obtained from esp_pm_lock_create function

返回

  • ESP_OK on success

  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG if the handle is invalid

  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_STATE if lock is not acquired

  • ESP_ERR_NOT_SUPPORTED if CONFIG_PM_ENABLE is not enabled in sdkconfig

esp_err_t esp_pm_lock_delete(esp_pm_lock_handle_t handle)

Delete a lock created using esp_pm_lock.

The lock must be released before calling this function.

This function must not be called from an ISR.

参数

handle -- handle obtained from esp_pm_lock_create function

返回

  • ESP_OK on success

  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG if the handle argument is NULL

  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_STATE if the lock is still acquired

  • ESP_ERR_NOT_SUPPORTED if CONFIG_PM_ENABLE is not enabled in sdkconfig

esp_err_t esp_pm_dump_locks(FILE *stream)

Dump the list of all locks to stderr

This function dumps debugging information about locks created using esp_pm_lock_create to an output stream.

This function must not be called from an ISR. If esp_pm_lock_acquire/release are called while this function is running, inconsistent results may be reported.

参数

stream -- stream to print information to; use stdout or stderr to print to the console; use fmemopen/open_memstream to print to a string buffer.

返回

  • ESP_OK on success

  • ESP_ERR_NOT_SUPPORTED if CONFIG_PM_ENABLE is not enabled in sdkconfig
