TPS650061 Overview
The TPS650061 is a versatile, high-efficiency Power Management IC that is designed with
portable applications in mind. It incorporates a single 2.25 MHz step-down switching regulator
and two low-dropout regulators in a compact 3x3 mm QFN package.
Power-sequencing with the TPS650061 is simplified since the switching regulator and LDOs
have independent voltage inputs and enable controls. The device further extends functionality by
adding a Supply Voltage Supervisor (SVS) circuit, which can be used to release the Reset pin of
the load processor when the supply rails have reached their final voltage levels.

OMAP-L13x Power Requirements
The OMAP-L132, L137, and L138 processors have slightly different power supply requirements
due to differences in peripherals and features. Some of these power requirements are also
dependent on the processor operating frequency and user preference (for example, the
DVDD3318_x supply can operate at 1.8V or 3.3V). Further information on voltage tolerance and
maximum current requirements can be found on the TI Power Management website at
www.ti.com/processorpower.
The OMAP-L132, L137, and L138 have similar power-on and power-off sequencing
requirements, and the sequencing circuit presented in this document can be used for any of
these processors. The power-on and power-off sequences have been summarized below. Keep
in mind that some power supply names (ex. SATA_VDD) will only apply for certain OMAP-L13x
devices.
2.1
Power-On Sequence
In general, the voltage rails must be powered on from lowest to highest voltage before the
processor can be taken out of reset mode. The L13x processors should be powered-on in the
following order:
1.
The real-time clock supply (RTC_CVDD) may be powered from an external device (such as
a battery) prior to all other supplies being applied, or it can be powered-up at the same time
as CVDD since they are the same voltage.
2. Core logic supplies:
(a) All variable 1.0V - 1.3V core logic supplies (CVDD)
(b) All static core logic supplies (RVDD, PLLx_VDDA, USB_CVDD, SATA_VDD). If voltage
scaling is not used on the device, groups 2a) and 2b) can be controlled from the same
power supply and powered up together.
3. All static 1.8V I/O supplies (DVDD18, DDR_DVDD18, USBx_VDDA18, SATA_VDDR) and
any of the I/O supply groups used at 1.8V nominal (DVDD3318_x).

SLVA513
4. All analog 3.3V PHY supplies (USBx_VDDA33) any of the I/O supply groups used at 3.3V
nominal (DVDD3318_x).
5. A Power-On Reset (POR) must be asserted until all power supplies have reached minimum
regulation. Power-On Reset is asserted by bringing the processor RESET and TRST pins low.
Note that the L132, L137, and L138 have internal pulldown resistors on TRST.
There is no required voltage ramp-up rate for any of the supplies. However, the supplies operated at
3.3V (DVDD3318_x) must never exceed the static 1.8V supplies by more than 2 volts.
The general power-up requirements are summarized in the table below. Consult the specific processor
data sheet for Recommended Operating Conditions and Absolute Maximum Ratings.

Schematic
The TPS650061 and the discrete sequencing circuit are shown in Figure 1. The output voltages
have been configured using the external feedback resistors so that VDCDC, VLDO1, and VLDO2 are
1.2V, 3.3V, and 1.8V respectively. Additional bypass/decoupling capacitors not shown on the
schematic will be required at the processor.

For the turn-on sequence shown in Figure 2, note that the 1.2V rail (VDCDC) rises first,
followed by the 1.8V (VLDO2) and 3.3V (VLDO1) rails. The same turn-on sequence is shown in
Figure 3 on a larger timescale to show the /RST pin going high. The /RST pin goes high after a
delay time once the 3.3V rail rises above 3.15V, as detected by the RSTSNS pin. The delay time
of the /RST pin is controlled by an external capacitor on the TPS650061 TRST pin. Note that the
3.3V rail is always less than 2V above the 1.8V rail, satisfying the voltage margin requirements.
Figure 4: Power-Off Sequence, 1 ms/div
For the turn-off sequence shown in Figure 4, the 3.3V rail (VLDO1) goes low first, followed by
the 1.8V (VLDO2) and 1.2V (VDCDC) rails. The /RST pin goes low when the 3.3V rail drops
below 3.15V, as detected by the RSTSNS pin. Note that the 3.3V rail is always less than 2V
above the 1.8V rail, satisfying the voltage margin requirements.
The circuit in Figure 1 was implemented on a TPS650061 Evaluation Module (TPS650061EVM584) with the sequencing circuitry soldered to a small prototyping PCB. The waveforms above
were taken at Vin = 4.2V with resistive loads at the full load conditions that are expected for the
OMAP-L13x devices:

Theory of Operation
This sequencing configuration uses a RC circuit on each of the TPS650061 Enable pins to
ensure that the voltage rails turn on and off at different times. The values of the resistors and
capacitors in the RC circuits determine the length of time between each successive voltage rail
turn-on/off. The processor is turned on or off by bringing the System Enable (SYS_EN) node on
the sequencing circuit high or low, respectively.
5.1
Startup
When SYS_EN is brought high, the 1.2V Enable (EN_1.2) will quickly go high and the 1.2V
Output (VOUT_1.2) will turn on. Because of the orientation of diodes D2 and D4, EN_1.8 and
EN_3.3 remain low at this time. As VOUT_1.2 rises, it charges the capacitor C11 through
resistor R9. When the voltage at the EN_1.8 node exceeds the EN_1.8 threshold voltage,
VOUT_1.8 will turn on. A similar process occurs to turn on VOUT_3.3.
Once VOUT_3.3 reaches the threshold of the RSTSNS pin, the Reset pin (/RST) will go high to
enable the OMAP processor. The threshold is set at 3.15V for the schematic shown in Figure 1;
it can be changed by adjusting the values of resistors R3 and R4. There is a delay between the
triggering of the RSTSNS pin and the /RST pin going high. This delay time can be adjusted by
changing the capacitor value on the TRST pin of the TPS650061 per the equation in the
TPS650061 datasheet (SLVS810B).
5.2
Shutdown
Once the TPS650061 has been turned on, SYS_EN must be pulled to ground for power-down to
occur. The outputs of the regulator will keep the Enable pins in a high state unless a path to
ground through SYS_EN is provided.
When SYS_EN is pulled to ground, the capacitor on EN_3.3 will discharge quickly since there is
a low-resistance path to ground. The voltage on EN_3.3 will drop, and VOUT_3.3 will turn off.
Once VOUT_3.3 drops below 3.15V, the /RST pin will be pulled low to disable the processor.
The capacitor on the EN_1.8 node will begin to discharge at the same time as EN_3.3, but at a
slower rate due to the resistor R7 in the capacitor’s discharge path. This delays the turn-off of
VOUT_1.8. The capacitor on the EN_1.2 node is discharged by the parallel resistor R11 since
the polarity of the diode D1 will not allow a path to ground.
5.3
Supply Voltage Supervisor
The output of the Supply Voltage Supervisor (SVS), the /RST pin, connects to the active-low
RESET pin of the OMAP-L13x processor. When the SVS is triggered, the /RST pin goes low,
putting the processor into reset mode. The SVS can be triggered by the voltage on the RSTSNS
analog comparator pin or by a forced reset on the /MR (Manual Reset) pin.

SLVA513
The sequencing circuit in this report takes advantage of the RSTSNS analog comparator to
release the processor reset only when the VOUT_3.3 rail has reached approximately 3.15V, and
to assert the processor reset when the VOUT_3.3 rail drops below 3.15V. The user can also use
an external switch, transistor, or microcontroller to toggle the /MR pin and trigger a processor
reset as needed.
6
Design Considerations
Although the discrete sequencing circuit is simple, care must be taken to ensure the circuit will
operate in a specific application.
6.1
Enable Pin Thresholds
A voltage divider is formed at the EN_1.8 node due to R9 and R7; when SYS_EN is low, the
voltage at the EN_1.8 node should be less than the threshold for the EN_1.8 pin (0.4V max). If
R7 and R9 prevent the voltage from dropping low enough, VOUT_1.8 will not turn off. The value
for R7 should be large enough to delay the EN_1.8 turn-off, but small enough for turn-off to
occur.
6.2
Inrush Current
Inrush current in excess of 1A can occur on SYS_EN when it is pulled high due the lowimpedance path to the capacitor on the EN_1.2 node. Use a small-value resistor in series with
SYS_EN to limit the inrush current (R8 is 22 ohms in the schematic). Using too high a resistor
value will influence the EN_1.8 voltage divider ratio since R7 will be connected to ground in
series with R8 (see Section 6.1). If controlling SYS_EN with a microcontroller or other logic
device, be sure that any inrush current does not exceed the maximum ratings of that device.
6.3
Diode Selection
Due to their low forward voltage drop (0.15-0.45V) and fast switching speed, Schottky diodes are
recommended in the sequencing circuit. Schottky diodes also have a shorter reverse recovery
time compared to other types of diodes, minimizing reverse current overshoot when changing
from the forward conducting to the reverse blocking state.
6.4
Load Turn-Off Time
A factor that may affect the turn-off time is the capacitance and load resistance on the
TPS650061 outputs. Since the DC/DC switching converter and the LDOs in the TPS650061 will
look “open” to the output when disabled, the output voltage decay will be depend partly on the
capacitance and load resistance on the output. Design the output capacitance to meet the ripple
requirements of the processor and adjust the sequencing circuit component values if necessary
to ensure proper sequence timing.

SLVA513
6.5
Output Capacitors
The OMAP-L13x processors will require several local bypass/decoupling capacitors in addition
to the bulk output capacitors shown in Figure 1. The values of these capacitors will depend on
the ripple tolerance of the voltage rails and the activity (load) of the processor and I/O
peripherals. Ripple tolerance specifications can be found in the Recommended Operating
Conditions table in the processor datasheet. Design the output capacitance to meet the ripple
requirements of the processor and adjust the sequencing circuit component values if necessary
to ensure proper sequence timing.
6.6
Power Good
The Power Good (PG) pin on the TPS650061 is an open-drain output that indicates the
condition of the enabled step down converter and LDOs. The PG pin is pulled low only if all
three outputs are regulating correctly. In the event one of the TPS650061 outputs fails because
of a short or other means, the PG pin will change to a High-Z state. This can provide an
additional level of protection to the system; an external transistor or microprocessor can be used
to monitor the state of PG and disable SYS_EN to avoid possible damage to the processor.
6.7
RESET Pull-up Resistors
The active-low RESET pin on the OMAP-L13x processors should be pulled high during normal
operation to prevent undesired processor resets. An external pull-up resistor to VOUT_3.3 is
required on the RESET line for the OMAP-L137. The L132 and L138 have internal pull-up
resistors on the RESET pin that connects to the DVDD3318_B supply.
