E1 Design Hardware Modifications

The following section describes the hardware modifications that were made to each E1 Control Card.

  1. TUSB320 CC Controller GPIO Mode
    • The TUSB320 is intended to be used in the GPIO mode to negotiate whether the type-C CC pins represent a power source that is an excellent choice for the Control Card. For the TUSB320 to be GPIO mode, the ADDR pin needs to floating and therefore R170 was removed.
    • Modification 1:
      • Depopulate R170

  2. Bypass PMIC VSYS_3V3C Power
    • The PMIC LDO output VSOUT2 is used to power the VSYS_3V3C power net. VSYS_3V3C is used to power loads for various peripheral circuits, many of which are required for AM263x reset and boot.
    • The PMIC LDO output VSOUT2 is disabled by default and requires a SPI register write from the AM263x to enable after initial start-up.
    • As a workaround, the VSYS_3V3C rail is shorted with the VSYS_3V3A PMIC output.
    • Modification 2:
      • Lift pin U30.29 from PMIC to disconnect LDO output of PMIC
      • Short TP359 and TP362 using 22GA wire

  3. TPS37042A30 Startup RESET Output Transients
    • The TPS37042A3O power supervisor (U187) open-drain outputs RESET1# and RESET2# cause transient PORZ assertions during initial 3.3V (VSYS_3V3A) and 1.2V (VSYS_1V2) power-on.
    • These open-drain outputs are pulled to USB-C/HSEC supplied VMAIN 5.0V supply. That VMAIN supply showed noisy behavior during start-up and caused these open-drain I/O to provide a faulty PORZ. Changing U187 RESET1# and RESET2# output pull-up resistors to reference PMIC supplied VDD_5V0 creates a functional PORZ.
    • Modification 3:
      • Remove R1640
      • Install 10 kΩ pull-up resistor on the RESET# output pad of the R1640 resistor position
      • Attach the other 10 kΩ resistor pad to the VDD_5V0 power net
