DC Characteristics
As different combinations of application modules are loaded onto the
eZ80
®
Development Platform, current requirements change. Please see
on page 41 to reference current consumption values for these
different module combinations.
A 0.1-Farad capacitor is provided on the eZ80F92 Flash Module as a
short-term battery backup for the RTC (see the
page 59). The part number of the capacitor made by Panasonic is
EECS0HDV. The capacitor is connected to RTC_VDD to provide power
to the RTC when main power to the chip is removed; it is also connected
to the 3.3V supply to the chip for recharging. The RTC can operate down
to 3.0V; it requires 10µA of current. The (keep alive) time this capacitor
can supply power to the RTC, from 3.3V to 3.0V, is approximately 3000
seconds, or 50 minutes.
Flash Loader Utility
The Flash Loader utility allows the user a convenient way to program on-
chip Flash memory. Please refer to the
(PUG0016) for more details.
Mounting the Module
When mounting the eZ80F92 Flash Module onto the eZ80
®
Development
Platform, check its orientation to the platform to ensure a correct fit. Pin 1
of JP1 on the eZ80
®
Development Platform must align with pin 1 of JP1
on the eZ80
