2.3 Power supply connections
The PCB has an optically isolated solid state relay (default a do-not-place
component) to offer synchronized switching of the device power with low voltage
drop-out and relatively high current drive possibilities. It is recommended to place a
0R resistor at R10 when currents larger than 100mA are expected. The
synchronized supply switching functionality will be lost by placing R10.
There are various ways of powering the PCB:
Wires soldered in at “V+” and “GND” (3.3V to 6.6V)
Through-hole coin cell holder at “V+” and “GND” (3.3V to 6.6V)
Power from DUT side –P4:pin2 (VDDHI_ISO, 3.0V to 5.5V)
The 3V3 regulator may be used to regulate the supply. Depending on the current
consumption, V_EXT should be chosen to comply with this LDO regulator.
Maximum dropout expected is 0.6V.
When powering the PCB, be sure to operate the chosen Azoteq IC within the
recommended limits. Some ICs are designed to operate in the 3.0V to 5.5V range
while others are designed for the 1.8V to 3.3V range.
