5.5 Connecting Power and Communication Signals
Figure 5-7–Figure 5-10 show the required connections for interfacing LTC3589-1 and LT3481 with the
i.MX53. Both power domains and communication signals blocks are specified for a more complete
understanding of the interface.

These domains are supplied by the internal regulator of the i.MX at the VDD_ANA_PLL pin.
2
An external DCDC converter is needed to supply these domains.
3
External part regulator number is LT3481.
