My esp-01 take around 150ms to turn on and receive some data and then go to sleep again. Im using esp-now.
Can I make it work with less time for the wake-up?
Thanks in advance

Thanks for your attention,
Yes Im working in deep sleep mode, the esp have to wake up from deep sleep every 4 seconds and execute program and then go back to sleep.
However to test how much time it will take for esp to wake up and run the program (for power consumption things); I tried to give it the power supply every 10ms in every 4s, but in this case of 10ms of power supply, the esp could not wake up and run the program, I tried 50ms and 100ms but the result is the same, and when I give to the esp power supply for 150ms, it actually does run the program and it does capture the incoming data from another esp (using esp-now).
