Standby | 10 mA | Device is in low power mode.
| The device may spend most of its time in this mode. Various configurable triggers will transition the device out of this mode and into Operating Mode |
Operating | 400 mA | Device is operating, can communicate with peripherals, Serial, Ethernet, CAN, GPIO, GNSS
