3.1.5 MCU Supply Routing and Jumpers
(J41, J42, J43, J44, J45, J46, J47, J48, J49,
J50)
The MCU can be operated in 5v and 3.3v modes by changing J46. When in 5v mode MCU has internal
regulators that can generate the 3.3V supplies for VDDSYN and VDD33. Whilst this is the intended mode of
operation for the MCU when VRC = 5v the EVB allows the internal MCU regulators to be disabled by
changing VRCSEL to EXT and applying external voltages to the VDDSYN and VDD33 inputs. When in 3.3v
mode VDDSYN and VDD33 inputs must always be supplied externally.
The VDDE[1..4] pins control the pad voltages over 4 groupings of pads (see the MCU reference manual for
details). Jumpers J41 - J34 allow the VDDEx pins to be connected to the 5.0v or 3.3V switching regulators.
The VDDEMLB domain can be 3.3v or 2.5v selectable by J45.
