Monitoring the Voltage Level of a Core Domain
A Power Validation Circuit (PVC) monitors the internal core supply voltage of a core
domain. It can be configured to monitor two programmable independent voltage levels.
The voltage of core domain DMP_M is monitored by the PVC_M. The voltage of core
domain DMP_1 is monitored by the PVC_1.
Feature list
The following list summarizes the features of a PVC.
•
Two independent comparators
•
Threshold levels selectable
•
Shut-off, which disables the complete module
•
Configurable action level
A PVC provides two adjustable threshold levels (LEV1 and LEV2) that can be
individually programmed via PVCxCON0.LEV1V and PVCxCON0.LEV2V (x = M or 1).
The current supply level of a domain is compared with the threshold values. The two
compare results can be monitored via bits PVCxCON0.LEV1OK and
PVCxCON0.LEV2OK (x = M or 1).
A reset or interrupt request can be generated in case the core domain voltage level is
below or equal / above the configured threshold level. An interrupt is requested if bit
PVCxCON0.L1INTEN and / or PVCxCON0.L2INTEN (x = M or 1)is set. A reset is
requested if bit PVCxCON0.L1RSTEN and / or PVCxCON0.L2RSTEN (x = M or 1)is set.
Note: For a single threshold both interrupt and reset request generation should not be
enabled at the same time.
