DVCC can be powered from a wide input voltage range, but the core logic of the device must be kept at a voltage lower than what this range allows. For this reason, a regulator (LDO) has been integrated into the PMM. The regulator derives the necessary core voltage (VCORE) from DVCC.
The regulator supports different load settings to optimize power. The hardware controls the load settings automatically, according to the following criteria:
In addition to the main LDO, an ultra-low-power regulator (RTC LDO) provides a regulated voltage to the real-time clock module (including the 32-kHz crystal oscillator) and other ultra-low-power modules that remain active during LPM3.5 when the main LDO is off.
