ABSTRACT
This reference design helps those desiring to design-in the TMS320C6742, TMS320C6746,
TMS320C6748 and OMAP-L138. This design, employing sequenced power supplies, describes a system
with an input voltage of 5V, and uses a high-efficiency DC/DC Converter with integrated FETs and DVFS
for a small, simple system.
Sequenced power supply architectures are becoming commonplace in high-performance microprocessor
and digital signal processor (DSP) systems. To save power and increase processing speeds, processor
cores have small-geometry cells that require lower supply voltages than the system-bus voltages. Power
management in these systems requires special attention. This application note addresses these topics
and suggests solutions for output-voltage sequencing.

Introduction
In dual-voltage architectures, coordinated management of power supplies is necessary to avoid potential
problems and ensure reliable performance. Power supply designers must consider the timing and voltage
differences between core and I/O voltage supplies during power-up and power-down operations.
Sequencing refers to the order, timing and differential in which the two voltage rails are powered up and
down. A system designed without proper sequencing may be at risk for two types of failures. The first of
these represents a threat to the long term reliability of the dual-voltage device, while the second is more
immediate, with the possibility of damaging interface circuits in the processor or system devices such as
memory, logic or data-converter ICs.

Power Requirements
www.ti.com
Another potential problem with improper supply sequencing is bus contention. Bus contention is a
condition when the processor and another device both attempt to control a bi-directional bus during power
up. Bus contention may also affect I/O reliability. Power supply designers should check the requirements
regarding bus contention for individual devices.
The power-on sequencing for the OMAP-L138, TMS320C6742, TMS320C6746, and TMS320C6748 are
shown in the Power Requirements table below. There is no specific required voltage ramp rate for any of
the supplies as long as the 3.3V rail never exceeds the 1.8V rail by more than 2V.
Also, in order to reduce the power consumption of the processor core, the Dynamic Voltage and
Frequency Scaling (DVFS) is used in the reference design. DVFS is a power management technique used
while the system-on-chip (SoC) is actively processing. This technique matches the operating frequency of
the hardware to the performance requirement of the active application scenario. Whenever clock
frequencies are lowered, operating voltages are also lowered as well to achieve power savings. In the
reference design, the TPS65023 is used that can scale its output voltage. It supports all five DVFS voltage
values (0.95V, 1V, 1.2V, 1.27V, and 1.35V) defined for VDD_MPU.

If 1.8-V LVCMOS is used, power rails up with the 1.8-V rails. If 3.3-V LVCMOS is used, power it up with the ANALOG33 rails
(VDDA33_USB0/1)
There is no specific required voltage ramp rate for any of the supplies LVCMOS33 (USB0_VDDA33, USB1_VDDA33) never
exceeds STATIC18 (USB0_VDDA18, USB1_VDDA18, DDR_DVDD18, SATA_VDDR, DVDD18) by more than 2 V.
If RTC is not used/maintained on a separate supply, it can be included in the STATIC12 (fixed 1.2 V) group.
If using CVDD at fixed 1.2 V, all 1.2-V rails may be combined.
If DVDD3318_A, B, and C are powered independently, maximum power for each rail will be 1/3 the above maximum power.

Proper sequencing is ensured in the design with the use of simple circuits involving the use of NPN
transistors as required. Core 1.2 V at 600 mA comes first ,which in turn is level-shifted to input voltage
using NPN transistors to enable the DCDC3_EN ; hence, static 1.2 V + VRTC at 251 mA comes up which
also enable the DCDC2_EN and sequentially static 1.8 V at 230 mA comes up. This 1.8-V output from
DCDC2 converter enable the LDO and hence at last static 3.3 V at 115 mA comes up.
(1)
Use three such LDOs to power up DVDDA, DVDDB, and DVDDC. (It can either be 1.8 V or 3.3 V.)
(2)
Rx = 0.499 MΩ, Ry = 1 MΩ for Vout = 1.8 V
(3)
Rx = 1.8 MΩ, Ry = 1 MΩ for Vout = 3.3 V
(4)
For proper sequencing of output, enable of the LDOs are fed either from 1.2-V output from DCDC3 converter
if DVDDX is 1.8 V or from 1.8-V output from DCDC2 converter if DVDDX is 3.3 V.
