4.3 IC Voltage Rails
The Main Board provides several options for powering the board’s integrated circuits. Jumpers
are provided to select from the available voltage sources, or to completely disconnect the rail.
Indicator LEDs, D4 to D7, are provided to easily observe the state of the VDDA, VDDB, VDDIOF
and VBATF voltage rails.
Caution: See precaution 6.2 for details regarding the voltage rail indicator LEDs.
Caution: Ensure that only one voltage source is selected for each voltage rail.

4.4 External Power Transistor
The M2 version of V850E2/Fx4 microcontrollers is capable of controlling an external power
transistor to regulate its core logic voltage. Transistor Q1 is provided for use with M2 version
microcontrollers. Jumper J4 can be used to connect the control signal and core logic voltage rail
(PT_CVDD). Jumper J3, described in Table 4, is used to connect the core logic rail to the
microcontroller.
