This test covers how long the TIDA-020079 takes to fully wake up from OFF state. The 12V_always_on rail supplies power to the PMIC (TPS653860-Q1), always on LDO (TPS7B8133-Q1) and a 5V tracking LDO (TPS7B4256-Q1). The PMIC provides a 6V buck-boost output (6V0_BB) which then supplies a 1.2V buck converter (TPS62903-Q1) and a 1.1V buck converter (TPS62902-Q1). The 6V buck-boost output also supplies several PMIC LDOs including 3.3V LDO1 (3V3_1), 3.3V LDO2 (3V3_2), 5V LDO1 (5V0_1), 1.8V LDO (1V8), 5V LDO2 (5V0_2), and an unused 5V LDO (PLDO2_OUT).
The PMIC is configured by a one-time programmable (OTP) setting and with an SPI. For this design, the OTP is configured to power on 6V0_BB, 3V3_1, and to enable the 1.1V and 1.2V rails. 3V3_1 and 1.2V are needed to power on the MCU. When the MCU is on, the other PMIC rails are turned on with an SPI.
The power sequence test starts with the board completely powered off. When powered on, WAKE1 and WAKE2 are asserted on the PMIC, which transitions the PMIC from OFF state to Active state. The power rails shown in Figure 2-1 then power up starting with the 6V buck-boost pre-regulator.
The resulting wake sequence is split up into two scopeshots. Figure 3-4 shows the power rails enabled by default, either by the PMIC OTP settings or the 12V always-on domain. In Figure 3-5, all PMIC rails enabled by software (except A0 and A1) are shown, with timings based on the one-time programmable settings.

Sequence)As shown above, most of the PMIC rails go high at approximately the same time after 180ms. PLDO2 goes high at the 225ms mark because PLDO2 is the last rail enabled by software. PLDO2 is enabled after all of the MCU peripheral drivers are setup.
