<p>An electronics device includes a housing, a buttons electrical circuit block, at least one user operable button in operable communication with the buttons electrical circuit block, a microcontroller block, and a first-time-on (FTO) electrical circuit block. The FTO electrical circuit block is disposed within the housing and includes an activation node and a signal reception contact. In addition, the FTO electrical circuit block is configured to place the electronics device into a deep power conservation mode upon either the direct application of an electrical signal to the activation node by an external device (e.g., a manufacturing tester) or a deactivation signal received at the signal reception contact. The FTO electrical circuit block is also configured to terminate the deep power conservation mode and place the electronics device into a normal operating mode upon receiving a predetermined user triggered signal from the at least one user operable button. Moreover, the microcontroller block is configured to generate the deactivation signal received at the signal reception contact in response to an external command signal received by the microcontroller block.</p> |
