PRODUCTION DATA
This section describes the external connections required for the digital pins. A VIO supply of 3.3V or 1.8V supply is commonly used as the voltage level for the digital signals that require an external pull-up. However, the device also supports any higher voltage up to the maximum spec. The VIO supply for the digital pins on the PMIC must be the same as the IO domain for the digital signal that is connected to on the processor. 100kΩ is the recommended pull-up resistor for EN/PB/VSENSE. Calculate the pull-up resistor for I2C pins based on system requirements. 10kΩ is recommended for all other digital pins.
If GPIO, GPO1 or GPO2 is assigned to the first slot of the power-up sequence to enable an external discrete, pull the pin up to VSYS.
Externally drive the EN/PB/VSENSE pin to enable or disable the PMIC. If the application does not have an external signal dedicated to drive this pin, pull the pin up to VSYS.
| Digital Pin | External Connection |
|---|---|
| nINT | Open-drain output. Requires external pull-up. |
| nRSTOUT | Open-drain output. Requires external pull-up. |
| EN/PB/VSENSE | When configured as EN, drive this signal with external logic
to enable or disable the PMIC, or pull this pin up to VSYS. When configured as PB, this signal requires a pull-up resistor connected to the VSYS pin. Push-button is optional. When configured as VSENSE, this signal requires an external resistor divider to monitor the pre-regulator. |
| SDA | I2C clock signal. Requires external pull-up. |
| SCL | I2C data signal. Requires external pull-up. |
| GPIO | When configured as GPIO (for multi-PMIC), this pin shares the
external pull-up resistor with the second TPS65215-Q1 PMIC. When configured as GPO (for single PMIC), requires external pull-up. |
| GPO1 | Open-drain general purpose output. Requires external pull-up. |
| GPO2 | Open-drain general purpose output. Requires external pull-up. |
| VSEL_SD / VSEL_DDR | Input digital pin. The initial state (pull-up or pull-down) must be set before the assigned PMIC rail ramps up. For example, if this pin is used to set the voltage on LDO1, the state must be set before LDO1 powers up. |
| MODE / STBY | Input digital pin. The initial state (pull-up or pull-down) must be set before the power-up sequence is complete. |
| MODE / RESET | Input digital pin. The initial state (pull-up or pull-down) must be set before the power-up sequence is complete. |
