A separate [Sylergy SY8088][1] Buck DC/DC SMPS chip is used to provide
|
|
the DDR2 +1V8 DDR2 DRAM power.
|
|
|
|
This is because the AXP20x is originally the PMU (Power Management
|
|
Unit) used by most Allwinner SoCs (A10, A13 and A20), which do not
|
|
integrate SDRAM, so the board designer has a wide choice of memory
|
|
option: DDR2, DDR3, DDR3L, LPDDR3, LPDDR4 with various voltage
|
|
requirements.
|
|
|
|
But no specific PMIC was created for the Allwinner V3s used in the
|
|
FunKey device which however integrates a fixed SiP (System In Package)
|
|
512Mbit (64MB) DDR2 SDRAM.
|
|
|
|
We thus have to design a separate SMPS (DC-DC) power supply for
|
|
providing the +1.8V 1A required for the DDR2 DRAM power supply.
|
|
|
|
For this purpose, we followed closely the [Allwinner Reference
|
|
Design][2].
|
|
|
|
Here is the corresponding DRAM Power schematics:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Nothing very fancy here: the SMPS chip **U4** has its required input
|
|
filter capacitor **C37** and output capacitors **C65** and **C73**.
|
|
|
|
The low-profile ferrite-core power inductor **L6** (rated with a
|
|
saturation current of 1.76A and low < 0.1 Ω resistance) provides the
|
|
DC-DC energy storage element.
|
|
|
|
The **R20**/**R23** precision voltage divider provides the required
|
|
+0.6V feedback voltage from the +1.8V output voltage by having a 1/3
|
|
resistor ratio.
|
|
|
|
The last component is a pull-up resistor **R19** which ties the SMPS
|
|
chip enable input to its active level permanently. The pull-up voltage
|
|
is +3.0V (just as in the original reference design), probably as it is
|
|
the next higher voltage available, in order to limit the current in it
|
|
to its lowest possible value.
