2.4 BRG_ST Module

This module is a sub-module of the BRG (Block Reset Generator) and is responsible for holding the PGEN start signal to avoid settle time issues. An important note about this module is the actual settle time delays used when the delay is requested.

When all blocks are enabled, the settle time delay is set to 6 us. When any one of the 16 blocks are disabled, the settle time delay is set to 6 us. The purpose of the first settle time delay is used in global mode. Since in global mode, all the blocks receive a reset signal, the DLPC964 apps cannot load another block until the mirrors have been given time to settle. The second settle time is used to avoid many of the potential settle time violations.

One example of this situation is if the DLPC964 Apps only had two blocks enabled and was set in single mode. The timing diagram is shown below.
