## Hardware setup
This example uses the board's default configuration for all the kits listed above, except the CY8CPROTO-040T. For the CY8CPROTO-040T, make the hardware changes as mentioned below:
- To use UART functionality, change the SW2 switch towards UART side on the kit.
- To use the User Button, short J6.2 and J6.3 with the jumper shunt on the kit.
The example does not require any additional hardware to run. However, you can connect an ammeter to measure the current consumed by the PSoC™ 4 device.
If you are using the CY8CKIT-041S-MAX kit, connect an ammeter to the J11 header to measure the current consumed.
See the kit guide for the exact location. If you are using any other kits, see the kit guide to know how to measure the current. It might require changes in the hardware.
> **Note:** Some of the PSoC™ 4 kits ship with KitProg2 installed. ModusToolbox™ requires KitProg3. Before using this code example, make sure that the board is upgraded to KitProg3. The tool and instructions are available in the [Firmware Loader](https://github.com/Infineon/Firmware-loader) GitHub repository. If you do not upgrade, you will see an error like "unable to find CMSIS-DAP device" or "KitProg firmware is out of date".
## Software setup
See the [ModusToolbox™ tools package installation guide](https://www.infineon.com/ModusToolboxInstallguide) for information about installing and configuring the tools package.
Install a terminal emulator if you don't have one. Instructions in this document use [Tera Term](https://ttssh2.osdn.jp/index.html.en).

<details><summary><b>Use Project Creator CLI</b></summary>
The 'project-creator-cli' tool can be used to create applications from a CLI terminal or from within batch files or shell scripts. This tool is available in the *{ModusToolbox&trade; install directory}/tools_{version}/project-creator/* directory.
Use a CLI terminal to invoke the 'project-creator-cli' tool. On Windows, use the command-line 'modus-shell' program provided in the ModusToolbox&trade; installation instead of a standard Windows command-line application. This shell provides access to all ModusToolbox&trade; tools. You can access it by typing "modus-shell" in the search box in the Windows menu. In Linux and macOS, you can use any terminal application.
The following example clones the "mtb-example-psoc4-power-modes" application with the desired name "Psoc4PowerModes" configured for the CY8CKIT-041S-MAX BSP into the specified working directory, C:/mtb_projects:
```
project-creator-cli --board-id CY8CKIT-041S-MAX --app-id mtb-example-psoc4-power-modes --user-app-name Psoc4PowerModes --target-dir "C:/mtb_projects"
```
The 'project-creator-cli' tool has the following arguments:
Argument | Description | Required/optional
---------|-------------|-----------
`--board-id` | Defined in the <id> field of the [BSP](https://github.com/Infineon?q=bsp-manifest&type=&language=&sort=) manifest | Required
`--app-id` | Defined in the <id> field of the [CE](https://github.com/Infineon?q=ce-manifest&type=&language=&sort=) manifest | Required
`--target-dir`| Specify the directory in which the application is to be created if you prefer not to use the default current working directory | Optional
`--user-app-name`| Specify the name of the application if you prefer to have a name other than the example's default name | Optional
> **Note:** The project-creator-cli tool uses the `git clone` and `make getlibs` commands to fetch the repository and import the required libraries. For details, see the "Project creator tools" section of the [ModusToolbox&trade; tools package user guide](https://www.infineon.com/ModusToolboxUserGuide) (locally available at {ModusToolbox&trade; install directory}/docs_{version}/mtb_user_guide.pdf).

## Design and implementation
**Figure 2. Power state machine**
![PowerMode](images/power_modes.png)
This project uses an LED to show the current low power state. Table 1 shows the state of the LED for each mode. The LED is continuously ON when the device is in Active mode.
**Table 1. LED state in various power modes**
CPU state | LED state
---------|------------
Active |LED ON
Sleep | Dims LED 10%
Deep Sleep |LED OFF
This example demonstrates how to transition the PSoC&trade; 4 device between Sleep and Deep Sleep power modes. It uses a GPIO interrupt to wake up the device from the Sleep and Deep Sleep modes. The device wakes up from low-power modes when a switch press is detected. An LED is connected to an output pin; it is used for indicating the current low-power state of the device. The firmware flow is as follows:
1. Initialize the GPIO wakeup interrupt. An input pin, externally connected to a switch, is configured to generate an interrupt when the switch is pressed.
2. Enable the UART peripheral for printing the debug statements.
3. Enable the PWM peripheral to dim and turn ON/OFF the LED.
4. Two power management callback functions are registered (Deep Sleep and Sleep callbacks). Table 2 shows the actions of each callback function.
**Table 2. Callback functions**
Callback | Power state | CHECK_READY | CHECK_FAIL | BEFORE_TRANSITION | AFTER_TRANSITION |
----------|--------| ---------| --------- | --- | ---
Deep Sleep callback | Deep Sleep | Disable UART | Enable the UART to operate | Disable PWM | Enable PWM, UART Components, and set LED to 100% ON
Sleep callback | Sleep | Disable UART | Enable the UART to operate | LED Dims 10% | Enable UART and set LED to 100% ON
