POWER Power supply
This device has the following power supply features:
On-chip LDO and DC/DC regulators
Global System ON/OFF modes
Individual RAM section power control for all system modes
Analog or digital pin wakeup from System OFF
Supervisor HW to manage power on reset, brownout, and power fail
Auto-controlled refresh modes for LDO and DC/DC regulators to maximize efficiency
Automatic switching between LDO and DC/DC regulator based on load to maximize efficiency
Note: Two additional external passive components are required to use the DC/DC regulator.
18.1 Regulators
The following internal power regulator alternatives are supported:
Internal LDO regulator
Internal DC/DC regulator
The LDO is the default regulator.
The DC/DC regulator can be used as an alternative to the LDO regulator and is enabled through the
DCDCEN on page 88 register. Using the DC/DC regulator will reduce current consumption compared to
when using the LDO regulator, but the DC/DC regulator requires an external LC filter to be connected, as
shown in Figure 14: DC/DC regulator setup on page 79.
