Power Supply to Pod
The pod can have power supplied either by the ICE or by your system. Configure the project
debugger settings in PSoC Designer with the appropriate power supply setting. See PSoC
Designer documentation for information on setting power options for the debugger.
Using the enCoRe II Internal 3.3 Volt Regulator Output (VREG)
Some enCoRe II devices have a built-in 3.3-volt regulator that can be used to supply external
devices with regulated voltage. To use the regulator for external devices, a 1.0uF or larger
ceramic cap must be loaded close to the output pin. When using the pod, this capacitor must
be loaded on position C12 on the bottom side of the pod board. The capacitor footprint on the
board at C12 is a 0805 sized surface mount footprint. Note that this capacitor must not be
loaded if using the VREG pin (P1.2) on enCoRe II as a GPIO. Be sure that the external
circuitry does not consume more power than the enCoRe II VREG output can provide as
specified in the data sheet. Note that the Wireless enCoRe II does not have an internal
voltage regulator.
External Clock Use with Pods
Emulation is not supported when using an external clock source for the enCoRe II’s CPU
clock. Designs which need external clock inputs are advised to use the internal clock for
emulation, then switch to the external clock for final testing.
