5.3.5 PSC Setup
The PSC tab appears when the Configure PSC checkbox is selected. This tab instructs the bootloader to explicitly set the state of specified LPSCs within power and sleep controller (PSC). LPSCs can be enabled, disabled, or placed in synchronous reset. Each text box can contain an arbitrary number of LPSC numbers separated by semicolons (;). The bootloader automatically enables the LPSC for the active boot peripheral.
Care must be exercised when specifying the state of LPSC modules. The AISgen tool does not comprehend the function of each LPSC, and it will not warn you if inappropriate choices are made. Turning on extra LPSCs can cause unnecessary power consumption, and turning off critical LPSCs can disable the boot peripheral or even shut down the CPU. For more information on the use of each LPSC, see the device-specific data sheet .
NOTE
Enabling PSC1 module 8 requires a forced transition that is not supported by the bootloader. The AISgen application will display an error message if you attempt to enable this module.
