4.1.10 VAUX1 LDO Regulator
The VAUX1 GP LDO regulator powers the auxiliary devices. The VAUX1 regulator can also support an
inductive load such as a vibrator. While operating in vibrator mode, the VAUX1 LDO has the following
features:
• Programmable, register-controlled, soft-start function
• Enabled through the VIBRA.SYNC pin
• Programmable, register-controlled, duty cycle (PWM generator) based on a nominal 4-Hz cycle derived
from an internal 32-kHz clock
Table 4-12 lists the characteristics of the regulator.
