Use case: VSYS=3.3V, DDR4 Memory, VDD_CORE=0.85V
Figure 4-13 shows the TPS6521904 variant powering the AM64x processor on a system with 3.3 V input supply and DDR4. This configuration is similar to the TPS6521903 but in this scenario, VDD_CORE is operated at 0.85 V instead of 0.75 V. As stated on the AM64x data sheet, "VDD_CORE and VDDR_CORE are expected to be powered by the same source so they ramp together when VDD_CORE is operating at 0.85 V". This requirement on the processor allows to have both, VDD_CORE and VDDR_CORE supplied by the same PMIC rail (Buck1). LDO2 is a free power resource pre-programmed for 1.8V output which can be used to supply external peripherals. Similarly to the TPS6521903, this configuration also has GPO2 is pre-programmed to be enabled in the second slot of the power-up sequence with a duration of 10 ms. The configuration can be used to enable the external power switch and meet the processor sequence requirements. The switch must be selected with the right electrical spec to ramp and provide a stable output voltage within the 10 ms duration of the second slot (before the PMIC start the next slot in the power-up sequence). Figure 4-14 and Figure 4-15 shows the power-up and power-down sequence programmed on TPS6521904.
