You are quoting two completely separate measurements on the data sheet (but I will admit I did not see the Table 41 measurements previously).

Table 41 lists the consumption at 35 deg, Table 9 does not. There is therefore a discrepancy in the power consumption between the two pages, which proves the point I was making, and disproves your point (that there is excess leakage)

In Table 9 (100 degC measurements)
ULV deeper sleep - 1.27V
Regular - 1.7A

In Table 41 - 35 deg C measurements
ULV deeper sleep 0.47W (at 0.85V) = .553A
Regular part 0.62W (0.85V) = 0.73A

The diffeecen in current requirements is secondary to a different Tj

The numbers also put the sleep current in line (or less per transistor) with the Athlon parts (running on a 0.18 process). Admittedly - the Athlon parts were tested at 50 degrees, so I think on a per transistor basis, there is likely little difference, and therefore nothing to argue about.
