2.1.15 eMMC Interface
ALAS5V has an eMMC interface that can be used for development and test purposes, e.g., to
write crash dumps from the module’s FFS to eMMC. To connect an eMMC a separate, addi-
tional power supply is required as described in Section 2.1.15.1.
2.1.15.1 eMMC Power Supply
An eMMC requires two separate power supplies normally named VCC (3V3) and VCCQ (3V3
/ 1V8). ALAS5V however, provides only a single power supply pad for eMMC, i.e., the
EMMC_PWR pad. Therefore, an additional external power supply for the eMMC is necessary,
and can for instance be provided through a voltage regulator enabled with the EMMC_PWR
line.
A sample connecting circuit is shown in Figure 15. Note that with ALAS5V the EMMC_PWR
line switches from 2.95V to 1.8V during eMMC operation.
