18-Hour RTC Roll Over
If the Standby Mode lasts longer than 18 hours, a special condition will occur. The 
real-time clock has a maximum time count of 18 hours, so that every 18 hours the 
receiver must briefly power on the processor and read the elapsed time before the 
real-time clock rolls over. 
The Diagram below describes the Copernicus GPS Receiver current draw levels after 
initiating a Standby command, as well as the service time for the 18-hour real time 
clock roll over. 
Figure 4.1
Current Draw Levels in Standby Mode 
During the 10 msec RTC service is time, there exists a 91.6 
μsec window where the 
receiver cannot detect state transitions on the RX pins. If NULL characters are being 
used to bring the unit out of Standby as described earlier, using three NULL 
characters in a row should ensure that one of the NULL characters happens outside of 
the vulnerable window so that the serial port activity is detected.
