8.2.1 Design Requirements

  1. The TRST pin must have a 10-kΩ pulldown resistor to ground.
  2. The RESET pin must have a 10-kΩ pullup resistor to V33D and a 1-nF decoupling capacitor to ground.
  3. Place the components as close to the RESET pin as possible.
  4. Depending on application environment, the PMBus signal integrity may be compromised at times. This causes the UCD90160 to receive incorrect PMBus commands. In a particular case, if (D9h) ROM_MODE command is erroneously received by a UCD90160 device, it causes the device to enter ROM mode, in this mode the device does not function unless Fusion GUI is connected to the device. To avoid such occurrences in a running system, it is suggested to enable Packet Error Checking (PEC) in the PMBus host. The UCD90160 automatically detects and works with PMBus hosts, both with and without PEC enabled.
  5. The fault log in the UCD90160 device is checksum protected. After new log entries are written into the fault log, the checksum is updated accordingly. After each device reset, UCD90160 re-calculates the fault log checksum and compares it with the existing checksum. If the two checksums are not the same, the device determines the fault log as corrupted and erases the fault log as a result.
  6. In the event that the V33D power is dropped before the device finishes writing the fault log, the checksum is not updated correctly, thus the fault log will be erased at the next power-up. The results are:
    • User sees an empty fault log
    • The device initialization time is approximately 160 ms longer than normal due to the Flash erasing time.
    Such an event usually happens when the main power of the board drops and no standby power can stay alive for V33D. If such a scenario can be anticipated in an application, it is strongly suggested to use the brown-out function and circuit as described in the Brownout Function section.
  7. When a pair of FPWM pin are configured as both Rail Enable and PWM(either margining or general purpose PWM) functions, there would be glitches on the pin configured as rail enable when device is out of reset and under initialization, which may impact the connected power rail. It is not recommended to have such configuration.
  8. PMBus commands (system file , PMBus write script file) method is not recommended for the production programming because GPIO pins may have unexpected behaviors which can disable rails that provide power to device. Data flash hex file or data flash script file shall be used for production programming because GPIO pins are under controlled state.
  9. The V33D power must be stable and no device reset can be fired during the device programming. Data flash may be corrupted if failed to follow these rules.
  10. When a pair of FPWM pins are both used for margining, after the device is out of reset, the even FPWM pin may output some pulses depending on the configured duty cycle and frequency. These pulses may cause unexpected behaviors on the margining rail if that rail is regulated before UCD is out of reset. It is recommended to use the even FPWM pin to margin rails that are directly controlled by the device.

WARNING

Do not use the RESET pin to power cycle the rails. Instead, use the PMBus_CNTRL pin as described in the Power-Supply Sequencing section; or, use the Pin-Selected Rail States function described in the Pin-Selected Rail States section.
