TPS6594x and LP8764x are the Power Management ICs
(PMIC) that should be used for Power Distribution Network (PDN) designs to support
this device. TI requires use of these PMICs for the following reasons:
- TI has validated their use with the Device
- Board level margins including transient response
and output accuracy are analyzed and optimized for the entire system
- Support for power sequencing requirements (refer
to Section 7.9.2, Power Supply Sequences)
- Support for Adaptive Voltage Scaling (AVS) Class
0 requirements, including TI provided software
When combining device voltage domains into a
common power rail is allowed, the most strigent voltage domain PDN guideline must be
implemented for the common power rail.
It is possible that some device voltage domains
may be unused in some systems. In such cases, all unused voltage domain supply pins
must still be connected to a valid power rail with a proper voltage level in order
to ensure device reliability (refer to Section 4.3, Signal Descriptions). For
example, if MCU is not used, then vdd_mcu domain can be combined with the CORE
domain (vdd_core) that has the same voltage specifications. A buck converter power
stage connected to the common power rail would then supply both CORE and MCU
domains.
For the combined rail, the following relaxations
apply:
- The AVS voltage of active rail in the combined
rail needs to be used to set the power supply
- The decoupling capacitance should be set
according to the active rail in the combined rail
Figure 9-1 shows an example of the detailed power mapping between the processor and
TPS659414-Q1 and LP876441-Q1 PMICs. In this configuration, both PMIC devices use a
3.3V input voltage. For more details, refer to the appnote titled “User's Guide
for Powering DRA821 with the TPS6594-Q1 and LP8764-Q1 PMICs".

(1) Any MCU or Main dual voltage IO
domains (VDDSHVn_MCU or VDDSHVn) being supplied by 3.3V to support 3.3V digital
interfaces
(2) Any MCU or Main dual voltage IO
domains (VDDSHVn_MCU or VDDSHVn) being supplied by 1.8V to support 1.8V digital
interfaces
(3) VDDSHV5 supports MMC1 signaling
for SD memory cards. A dual voltage (3.3/1.8V) power rail is required for
compliant, high-speed SD card operations. If SD card is not needed or standard
data rates with fixed 3.3V operation is acceptable, then domain can be grouped
with digital IO 3.3V power rail. If a SD card is capable of operating with fixed
1.8V, then domain can be grouped with digital IO 1.8V power rail.
(4) VDDA_3P3_USB is 3.3V analog
domain used for USB 2.0 differential interface signaling. A low noise, analog
supply is recommended to provide best signal integrity for USB data eye mask
compliance. If USB interface is not needed or data bit errors can be tolerated,
then domain can be grouped with 3.3V digital IO power rail either directly or
through a supply filter.
(5) VDDA_1P8_<clk/pll/ana> are
1.8V analog domains supporting clock oscillator, PLL and analog circuitry
needing a low noise supply for optimal performance. It is not recommended to
combine digital VDDSHVn_MCU and VDDSHVn IO domains since high frequency
switching noise could negatively impact jitter performance of clock, PLL and DLL
signals. Combining analog VDDA_1p8_<phy> domains should be avoided but if
grouped, then in-line ferrite bead supply filtering is required.
(6) VDDA_1P8_<phy> are 1.8V
analog domains supporting multiple serial PHY interfaces. A low noise, analog
supply is recommended to provide best signal integrity, interface performance
and spec compliance. If any of these interfaces are not needed, data bit errors
or non-compliant operation can be tolerated, then domains can be grouped with
digital IO 1.8V power rail either directly or through an in-line supply filter
is allowed.
(7) VDDA_0P8_<dll/pll> are 0.8V
analog domains supporting PLL and DLL circuitry needing a low noise supply for
optimal performance. It is not recommended to combine these domains with any
other 0.8V domains since high frequency switching noise could negatively impact
jitter performance of PLL and DLL signals.
