3.9 Power supply management
The devices embed two different regulators: one LDO and one DC/DC (SMPS). The SMPS
can be optionally switched-on by software to improve the power efficiency. As LDO and
SMPS operate in parallel, the SMPS switch-on is transparent to the user and only the power
efficiency is affected.
3.9.1 Power supply schemes
The devices require a V
DD
operating voltage supply between 1.8 V and 3.6 V. Several
independent supplies (V
DDSMPS
, V
FBSMPS
, V
DDA
, V
DDRF
) can be provided for specific
peripherals:
V
DD
= 1.8 V to 3.6 V
V
DD
is the external power supply for the I/Os, the system analog blocks such as reset,
power management, internal clocks and low-power regulator. It is provided externally
through VDD pins.
V
DDSMPS
= 1.8 V to 3.6 V
V
DDSMPS
is the external power supply for the SMPS step-down converter. It is provided
externally through VDDSMPS supply pin and must be connected to the same supply as
V
DD
.
V
FBSMPS
= 1.45 V to 1.62 V (1.55 V typical)
V
FBSMPS
is the external power supply for the main system regulator. It is provided
externally through VFBSMPS pin and is supplied through the SMPS step-down
converter.
V
DDA
= 0 V to 3.6 V (DAC/COMPs minimum voltage is 1.71 V, ADC minimum voltage is
1.8 V and VREFBUF minimum voltage is 2.4 V).
V
DDA
is the external analog power supply for A/D converters, D/A converters, voltage
reference buffer, and comparators. The V
DDA
voltage level is independent from the V
DD
voltage (see power-up and power-down limitations below) and must preferably be
connected to V
DD
when these peripherals are not used.
V
DDRF
= 1.8 V to 3.6 V
V
DDRF
is an external power supply for the radio. It is provided externally through the
VDDRF pin and must be connected to the same supply as V
DD
.
V
DDRF1V5
= 1.45 V to 1.62 V
V
DDRF1V5
is an external power supply for the radio. It is provided externally through the
VDDRF1V5 pin and must be connected externally to VFBSMPS.
V
BAT
= 1.55 V to 3.6 V
V
BAT
is the power supply for RTC, TAMP, external clock 32 kHz oscillator and backup
registers (through power switch) when V
DD
is not present.
