4 Supporting Functional Safety Systems

By using the TPS6594-Q1 and LP8764-Q1 solution to power the DRA821 processor, the system can leverage the following PMIC functional safety features:

  • Independent Power Control of MCU and Main Rails
  • Independent Monitoring and Reset for MCU and Main Rails
  • Input Supply Monitoring
  • Output Voltage and Current Monitoring
  • Question & Answer Watchdog
  • Fault Reporting Interrupts
  • Enable Drive Pin that provides an independent path to disable system actuators
  • Error Pin Monitoring
  • Internal Diagnostics including voltage monitoring, temperature monitoring, and Built-In Self-Test

Refer to the Safety Manuals of the TPS6594-Q1 and LP8764-Q1 devices for full descriptions and analysis of the PMIC functional safety features. These functional safety features can assist in achieving up to ASIL-D rating for a system. Additionally, these features help in achieving the functional safety assumptions utilized by the processor to achieve up to ASIL-D rating. See the DRA821 Safety Manual for Jacinto™ 7 Processors for a complete list of functional safety system assumptions.
