2.2.4 PMIC

The AM261x controlSOM makes use of a multirail power supply for microcontrollers in safety-relevant applications (TPS6563860-Q1). The PMIC integrates multiple supply rails to power the MCU and other onboard peripherals.

AM261-SOM-EVM PMIC Figure 2-7 PMIC
Note: BB_OUT, LDO1_OUT, and LDO2_OUT are powered on by default. LDO[3:4]_OUT and PLDO[1:2]_OUT are not powered on by default at system start-up and require a SPI write from the AM261x to enable these supply rails.

An independent voltage monitoring unit inside the PMIC monitors undervoltage and overvoltage on all internal supply rails and regulator outputs of the supply. All supplies are protected with current limiting and overtemperature warning and shutdown.
