*Low power mode*

Type: ``bool``

Help
====

.. code-block:: none

    When enabled, UARTE is enabled before each TX or RX usage and disabled
    when not used. Disabling UARTE while in idle allows to achieve lowest
    power consumption. It is only feasible if receiver is not always on.

Direct dependencies
===================

\ :kconfig:`UART_ASYNC_API <CONFIG_UART_ASYNC_API>` && \ :kconfig:`UART_3_NRF_UARTE <CONFIG_UART_3_NRF_UARTE>` && \ :kconfig:`UART_NRFX <CONFIG_UART_NRFX>` && \ :kconfig:`SERIAL <CONFIG_SERIAL>`
