Radio modules and modems for communications devices have standardized on the AT command set for the past ~40 years. The AT command set and related APIs require a processor and a radio module to be awake and communicate via a data bus, which requires both the processor and the radio module to be in active states and consequently consume power. This patent application of ~125 pages and ~20 figures provides a shared nonvolatile memory interface to allow completely independent sleep states for a processor and a radio module. This architecture supports a common industry goal for IoT applications to support a 5-10 year battery life .
