About the ConnectCore® 6UL Power supplyConnectCore® 6UL Hardware Reference Manual 11Power supplyPower supply architectureThe ConnectCore 6UL requires a primary power supply input. This supply is the main power domain tothe on-module NXP PF3000 power management IC (PMIC), which generates all required supplyvoltages for the module as well as the external interfaces. The system can be powered from voltagesup to 5.5V. See Powering the system from a nominal 5V power supply (4.5V to 5.5V) and Powering thesystem for battery-powered applications (3.7V - 4.5V) for recommended power schemes for theConnectCore 6UL module.The ConnectCore 6UL module has a dedicated pin for connecting a coin cell backup battery or supercapacitor. You can enable a coin cell charger on the PMIC with Li-ion rechargeable batteries. Thisbackup battery or super capacitor is mandatory if RTC time must persist after the module has beendisconnected from main power. You must also follow the recommended diode configuration as shownin the diagrams below to make sure the module holds the system time.If RTC time retention is not required, you can remove the circuitry from your design and connect the3.3V voltage regulator directly to the VCC_MCA and MCA_VIN_DET pins.Powering the system from a nominal 5V power supply (4.5V to 5.5V)
About the ConnectCore® 6UL Power supplyConnectCore® 6UL Hardware Reference Manual 12Powering the system for battery-powered applications (3.7V - 4.5V)Note In the implementations shown above, the coin cell/supercapacitor is connected to VCC_LICELLpin of the ConnectCore 6UL module, allowing coin-cell charger applications. This VCC_LICELLconnection feeds the VSNVS regulator of the PMIC, which supplies the SNVS power domain of theCPU. This power domain allows some functionality of the CPU in low power mode applications whenthe main power supply of the system is removed. However, this connection significantly increases thepower consumption of the coin cell/supercapacitor in this low-power mode.To optimize power management in coin cell applications:Do not connect the coin cell/supercapacitor to the VCC_LICELL power domain (keep the connection toVCC_MCA). This removes coin-cell charger functionality but drastically reduces power consumptionand extends the life of the power supply. However, this connection significantly increases the powerconsumption of the coin cell/supercapacitor in this low-power mode to around 350 uA.The power architecture of the module is described in more detail below.The PMIC generates the following power domains that are available on the module pads:nBuck converters. Two buck regulators provide 3.3V:lSW1A: 3V3_INT, powers several interfaces inside the modulelSW2: 3V3_EXT, free power line not used inside the modulenAnd another two buck regulators used for internal supply:lSW1B: VDD_ARM_SOC_INlSW3: VCC_DDR3

See the following table for operating range of NVCC_ENET:Power domain Min Type MaxNVCC_ENET 1.65 V 1.8/2.8/3.3 V 3.6 VAs shown in the table above, the supply has a wide operating range. In order to provide the most cost-effective and flexible solution for a given use case, the supplies listed in the table must be provided bythe carrier board integrating the ConnectCore 6UL module. However, PMIC 3.3V and LDO power railsare dedicated power sources for supplying i.MX6UL power domains.For more information related to the PMIC power-up strategy, refer to section 6.3.5 of the NXP PF3000datasheet.System power-up sequenceWhen the power supply is connected to the ConnectCore 6UL module, the PMIC and the MCA are thefirst components to be powered up. VIN is the PMIC input power line, while VCC_MCA is the MCA inputline. The MCA starts to run as soon as it is powered up, but the PMIC follows a fixed initializationprocess (see the NXP PF3000 Datasheet for a full description). In this initialization, the first regulatorto automatically be powered on is the VDD_SNVS_3V3. Once this regulator is up, the PMIC can beswitched on by controlling the PWRON pin (the on-off control line of the PMIC). This pin is controlled bythe MCA. The MCA will turn on the PMIC after a user-programmable delay (by default 50 ms).Once the PMIC is switched on, another fixed initialization process starts and the PMIC regulators areturned on following a defined sequence. Finally the CPU reset line (POR_B_CPU), which is alsocontrolled by the MCA, is released.
About the ConnectCore® 6UL BootstrapConnectCore® 6UL Hardware Reference Manual 15The following time diagram shows the power-up sequence.BootstrapThe ConnectCore 6UL module can be configured to boot from different devices and interfaces asdetermined by the Boot ROM. The configuration of the booting process of the CPU is done through:nBOOT_MODE register, which selects the boot mode of the processor.neFUSEs and/or GPIOs, which determine the boot configuration.Four boot modes are available on the i.MX6UL processor. Selection between them is done throughBOOT_MODE[1:0] bits. The bits are externally configurable on two processor IOs, whose values arelatched during boot-up:BOOT_MODE [1:0] Boot type00 Boot from fuses01 Serial downloader10 Internal boot11 ReservedBOOT_MODE[0] and BOOT_MODE[1] are available on dedicated LGA pads on the module. However, onthe castellated pads only BOOT_MODE[1] is available.Note BOOT_MODE[0] is set to 0 internally on the module through a 100K pull-down resistor. Thismeans that in applications using only the castellated pads of the module, the only boot modesavailable are Boot from fuses and Internal boot. However, once Uboot is running, you can select adifferent boot mode (like serial downloader).Boot from fusesBoot from fuses is the recommended boot mode for production purposes. When this boot mode isselected, you must configure several parameters in order to select and configure the boot device of
About the ConnectCore® 6UL Internal bootConnectCore® 6UL Hardware Reference Manual 16the system. These parameters are configured through fuses, which are burned in order to set theirvalues. This means that the configuration is irreversible.BOOT_CFG1 selects the boot device through BOOT_CFG1[7:4] bits:BOOT_CFG1[7:4] Boot device0000 NOR/OneNAND (EIM)0001 QSPI0011 Serial ROM (SPI)010x SD/eSD/SDXC011x MMC/eMMC1xxx Raw NANDThere are many other registers that configure the different boot devices. For a complete descriptionof the booting configuration, refer to the NXP i.MX 6UltraLite Applications Processor ReferenceManual (Chapter 8: System Boot).Internal bootInternal boot is the recommended boot mode for development purposes. When this boot mode isselected, the selection and configuration of the booting process is done through the same registersused when booting from fuses. However, this time the values of some registers are overridden usingmultiple GPIOs, which are latched during power-up.The following configuration is done internally in the ConnectCore 6UL module in order to enablebooting from the NAND memory:Bootstrap configuration Corresponding GPIO Default configurationBOOT_CFG2[1] LCD_DATA9 100K pull-downBOOT_CFG2[2] LCD_DATA10 100K pull-downBOOT_CFG2[3] LCD_DATA11 100K pull-upBOOT_CFG2[4] LCD_DATA12 100K pull-downBOOT_CFG2[5] LCD_DATA13 100K pull-upBOOT_CFG2[6] LCD_DATA14 100K pull-downBOOT_CFG2[7] LCD_DATA15 100K pull-downYou must also set up BOOT_CFG1[7:0] register when booting from the internal on-module NAND whenInternal boot mode is selected. It must be configured externally (outside the module) as shown in thefollowing table:

This means thatthe values of these lines are latched during the power-up, but have a different functionality once thesystem is up and running. In this case, these lines belong to the LCD interface. In order to protect thevalue of these registers while the system is booting, Digi recommends you use a protection circuitryas shown in sheet 3 of 7, "Boot selection," of the ConnectCore 6UL reference designs. SeeConnectCore 6UL design files.Serial downloaderYou can use the serial downloader boot mode for device recovery. The serial downloader allows you todownload a program image to the chip through a USB or UART serial connection. When any of thestandard boot modes is selected but the booting process doesn’t succeed (for instance due to wrongbooting device or corrupted images) the CPU automatically jumps to the serial downloader bootmode.Wireless interfacesThe ConnectCore 6UL system-on-module combines a wireless local area network (WLAN) andBluetooth (BT) dual solution to support IEEE802.11 a/b/g/n/ac WLAN standards and BT 4.2 enablingseamless integration of WLAN/BT and Low Energy technology. Digi also offers a non-wireless variant ofthe ConnectCore 6UL module.The following sections include specifications for the wireless interfaces available on the ConnectCore6UL module.WLAN 802.11a/b/g/n/acThe 2.4 GHz band on the ConnectCore 6UL module supports 20/40 MHz bandwidths, and the 5 GHzband supports 20/40/80 MHz bandwidths.The following sections specify the performance of the WLAN IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac interface on theConnectCore 6UL module.

Both antenna ports support WLAN and Bluetoothfunctionality. You can use the control signal RF1_INT/nEXT to select between the on-module antennaport (U.FLconnector) and the external antenna port (LGA pad). This control signal has a 10K pull-uppopulated on the module, which means that the on-module antenna port (U.FL connector) is active bydefault. Pulling RF1_INT/nEXTlow activates the external antenna port and disables the on-moduleantenna port.BluetoothThe ConnectCore 6UL module supports both Bluetooth and Bluetooth Low Energy protocols:nBluetooth 4.2 (BT4.2); backwards compatible with BT 1.X, 2.X + Enhanced Data Rate, BT 3.X, BT4.0 and BT 4.1 Bluetooth class 1 and class 2 power-level transmissionsnIntegrated WLAN-BT coexistenceRF control signalsThe following signals are not supported by the current firmware of the WLAN/BT transceiver:nWLAN_RF_KILL# (pad B17)nBT_RF_KILL# (pad B18)nWLAN_LED (pad B19)nBT_LED (pad B20)Micro Controller Assist™The Micro Controller Assist, orMCA, is a small microcontroller that is deeply integrated into the designof the ConnectCore 6UL module. It assists the i.MX6UL processor with advanced operations related topower management, security, and system reliability. The functionality provided by the MCA includes:

Themicrocontroller provides up to eight general purpose IOs that can be configured with different modesto provide functionality such as digital input/output or ADC.The i.MX6UL can update the MCA firmware over the I2C bus.

Set to high level*during power off.* low levelReset controlAsserting and de-asserting the MCA_RESET line wakes the ConnectCore 6UL module from any powermode (suspend/power off). Then, the microcontroller executes the programmed firmware.The MCA, in cooperation with the PMIC, controls the reset line of the i.MX6UL processor (POR_B). TheMCA_RESET pin is the main reset input of the ConnectCore 6UL module. This pin is a pseudo open-drain with an internal pull up. Asserting the MCA_RESET line low sets the MCA into reset state, and itremains in this state until the line is de-asserted.During system initialization, the MCA performs the following actions:nAsserts the PWR_ON line low for a configurable number of milliseconds (0-255 ms with adefault value of 50ms). This powers the PMIC off, switching off all regulated outputs of thePMIC. You can disable this power cycle by setting the timer to 0.nAsserts the PWR_ONline high to power the system on (assuming it was asserted low before).nKeeps POR_B asserted low for a configurable number of miliseconds.nAsserts the POR_B line high to start the execution of the firmware on the i.MX6UL processor.The following time diagram represents the reset sequence. You can configure the reset timing.Default values are as follows:ntr1: 50 msntr2: 2 ms
About the ConnectCore® 6UL Micro Controller Assist™ConnectCore® 6UL Hardware Reference Manual 26SeeSystem power-up sequencefor more information about the power-up sequence oftheConnectCore 6UL.Note ThePOR_B line is also connected to the PMIC. The PMIC won't release this line until it isswitched on andthe entire starting sequence is finished (a few ms after the latest regulator is turnedon). This means that even if the MCA releases the reset line before the PMIC is ready, the CPU won'tgo out of reset. This occurs on the ConnectCore 6UL module: the MCA releases the CPU reset line byputting the MPU_RESET linehigh butthere's a delay since this GPIO goes high until the POR_B_CPUline goes high. The delay occurs because the PMIC is still not completely initialized.See the MCAsoftware documentation for additional information on the configuration of the MCA.IOsThe ConnectCore 6UL MCA provides up to eight configurable IOs.Since the general purpose IOs do not incorporate internal pull-ups or pull-downs, you may have to addthe components to the exterior of the module carrier board.The following table lists all available MCA IOs with capabilities and module pad:

When one or more MCA IRQs are activated, theMCA interrupts the main processor through the corresponding IRQ line, signaling the active IRQs inthe IRQ status registers.The IRQ inputs can wake the system from any low power mode (suspend orpower off).See the MCA software documentation for additional information about how to configure and accessthe MCA IRQ lines.Analog to Digital ConverterYou can configure up to five MCA IOs as Analog to Digital channels in addition to the ones provided bythe i.MX6UL CPU. The index of the MCA ADC channels corresponds to the index of the MCA IO. Thismeans that the ADC channel 0 corresponds to the MCA_IO0, the ADC channel 1 to the MCA_IO1, andso on.The result of the ADC conversion for a given input voltage is inversely proportional to the referencevoltage of the ADC. For the MCA ADCs, the reference voltagecorresponds to the MCA_VCC voltage.(Note that the i.MX6UL ADCs have a different reference voltage.) The MCA ADC provides 12-bit ofresolution with right-justified, unsigned format output. These ADCs are suitable for low-frequencysampling(under 10 Hz). For higher frequency sampling, Digi recommends the CPU ADC channels.See the MCAsoftware documentation for additional information about how to configure and accessthe MCA ADCs.
About the ConnectCore® 6UL Micro Controller Assist™ConnectCore® 6UL Hardware Reference Manual 28External voltage referenceThe MCA_IO2/EXT_VREF pin provides an accurate voltage reference of 1.2V that can be used toprovide a reference voltage for sensors and/or analog devices (such as comparators or DACs).When this pin is used as external reference voltage or as the internal reference of the MCA analog-to-digital converter,an external capacitor of 100nF must be connectedbetween the pin and ground andas close as possible to the module pad.The default configuration of the MCA_IO2/EXT_VREF pin is as IO. You must use software to configurethe pin for external voltage reference. See the software documentation for additional informationabout how to control the function of this pin.Note that the voltage reference continues normal operation in low power modes (suspend and poweroff). Therefore, if the voltage reference is enabled during normal operation but is not required for lowpower operation, Digi recommends using the software to disable it before entering low power in orderto minimize the power consumption, and re-enable it when resuming normal operation.External 32KHz clock outputThe MCA_IO6/CLKOUT32K pin is a 32.768 Hz square wave output that can be used as clock input byperipherals requiring a low-frequency, high-accuracy clock.Note The default configuration of theMCA_IO6/CLKOUT32K pin is as IO. You must use software toconfigure the pin as 32KHz clock output. See the MCAsoftware documentation for additionalinformation about how to control the function of this pin.Note that the 32KHz clock output continues normal operation in low power modes (suspend andpower off). Therefore, if the 32KHz clock output is enabled during normal operation but is not requiredfor low power operation, Digi recommends using the software to disable it before entering low powerin order to minimize power consumption, and re-enable it when resuming normal operation.WatchdogThe MCA implements a watchdog timer in its firmware. The MCA watchdog resets the system, or onlythe i.MX6UL CPU, if the software running on the main processor fails to execute properly and does notreset the watchdog timer on time.
About the ConnectCore® 6UL Micro Controller Assist™ConnectCore® 6UL Hardware Reference Manual 29The main featuresof the MCA watchdog include:nConfigurable timeout between 1 and 255 seconds.nConfigurableto generate interrupt or system reset.nConfigurable to generate full-system reset (including the MCA itself) or CPU-only reset. Full-system reset can include a PMIC off/on, depending on the device configuration.See the MCAsoftware documentation for additional information about how to configure and accessthe watchdog timer.Real-time clockThe MCA implements a Real-Time Clock (RTC) in its firmware. The i.MX6UL CPU internal RTCs aredisabled by default because the MCA RTC is preferred due to its superior power consumptionefficiency. To preserve the date during power-off, you must connect a coin cell battery following thedesign notes provided in the Power Supply Architecture section. You must also connect the MCA lineVIN_PRESENT following the design guidelines inPower supply architecture in order to detect powerloss and automatically switch to RTC mode.The main features of the MCA RTC include:nDate/time registers to keep the system time (backed up by the coin cell battery).nProgrammable alarm to generate and interrupt. This alarm can be used to wake the systemfrom low power modes (suspend and power off).See the MCAsoftware documentation for additional information about how to configure and accessthe watchdog timer.Tamper supportThe tamper interface provides a mechanism to detect any unauthorized attempt to access thesystem, such as the opening of the enclosure. The tamper support included in the ConnectCore 6UL isimplemented in the MCA with the following capabilities:nConfigure up to two tamper interfaces, each with an optional digital output.nRely on tamper detection event in power-off and coin cell (battery backup) modes.nRegister tamper event(s) in the non-volatile memory of the MCA.nAlert the host CPU when a tamper event occurs.nRespond to a tamper attack with actions such as erasing a critical data partition of the flash.Tamper pinsThe ConnectCore 6UL module supports up to two tamper interfaces (tamper0 and tamper1). Eachinterface has an associated IO (tamper pin) used to detect the tamper event (through a voltagetransition on the IO) and, optionally, an output IO (tamper output) that can be used to enable ordisable peripherals, for instance to cut the power of a peripheral. The IOs of each tamper interfacecan be configured independently and have the following configuration options:nThe MCA IO used for tamper detection, from the available MCA IOs that are IRQ-capable.nThe active level (tampering) of the tamper input.nThe MCA IO used as tamper output, when enabled, that is activated when a tamper conditionhas not been acknowledged.nThe logic level that is set in the tamper output when a tamper event occurs.
About the ConnectCore® 6UL Micro Controller Assist™ConnectCore® 6UL Hardware Reference Manual 30The MCA IO table provides information about the capabilities of the MCA IO pins so you can easilyidentify suitable IOs to be used as tamper inputs. Any MCA IO pin can be configured as tamper output.Tamper pin configurationTo learn ore about tamper pin configuration, see Tamper detection interface in the softwaredocumentation.Power managementThe MCA plays a key role in the power management activities of the ConnectCore 6UL module. Incooperation with the i.MX6UL processor, the MCA controls the power states of the PMIC, providesmultiple wake up sources to transition between power modes. It also allocates dedicated signals tocapture power events and indicate the system power state, allowing you to control external powersources and indicators.Power modesThe module provides four different power operating modes: ON/RUN, OFF, SUSPEND, and COIN-CELL.The following figure shows the state diagram and the events to switch between states.
About the ConnectCore® 6UL Micro Controller Assist™ConnectCore® 6UL Hardware Reference Manual 31ON/RUN modeThe module enters the ON state after a power-on or system-reset event. In this mode, the PMIC isrunning at full power so all voltage regulators are generating the nominal voltage for this mode. Thecpu reset line is de-asserted and the processor is running at normal speed, performing DVFS if thesystem was configured to do so. In this state, the PWR_ON line is asserted low, indicating that themodule is ON.Note that the specific state of the regulators (on/off) and the voltage in this mode are controlled bythe firmware running on the i.MX6UL processor. The PMIC starts with the default settings configuredon the OTP area, but once the software takes control it applies the specific configurationimplemented in the firmware.SUSPEND modeThe suspend mode (also known as suspend-to-ram mode) is the low-power mode that allows themodule to preserve ram content. When the module enters SUSPEND, the following actions take place:
About the ConnectCore® 6UL Micro Controller Assist™ConnectCore® 6UL Hardware Reference Manual 32nThe processor goes into low power, disabling as much functionality as possible and keepingactive only the peripherals configured to wake the system from SUSPEND.nThe DDR memory is set to self-refresh mode to preserve its contents while reducing powerconsumption.nThe PMIC goes into standby mode, configuring the regulators in the configured mode (on, off,with a different voltage compared to ON state).nThe MCA goes into sleep mode, keeping active the peripherals that always run in low powermodes (like the RTC) and those configured to wake up the system (such as IRQs and power IO).OFF modeThe module enters OFF mode after a power-off event. In this mode:nThe PMIC is set to the OFF state and all the voltage regulators, except VSNVS, are switched off.nThe PWR_ON line is asserted low, indicating that the module is in OFF state.nThe MCA goes into sleep mode, keeping active the peripherals that always run in low-powermodes (like the RTC) and those configured to wake up the system (such as IRQs and power IO).COIN-CELL modeIn COIN-CELL mode, the module only powers the MCA from the coin-cell battery, leaving the rest ofthe module power inputs switched off. In this mode, the MCA remains in sleep mode, updating the RTCand monitoring the following events:nTamper events that would be registered in the NVRAM memory of the MCA and would assertthe Tamper output if enabled.nPower in MCA_VIN_DET, which indicates that there is sufficient voltage to generate a power-on event.Power IO signal/Power buttonThe MCA provides a signal (PWR_IO) to detect external events that trigger a transition between thedifferent power modes described in Power modes. The pin has wake-up interrupt/event capabilities, itis active low, and it does not provide an internal pull-up. (The pull-up resistor must be added externallyif required.) This signal is ideal for connecting a power button or the output of a peripheral thatcontrols the power state of the module and its transitions. The firmware provides a configurabledebounce filter to improve noise immunity and filter rebounds on push buttons. When the PWR_IOsignal is asserted low, one of the following events occurs:nIf the duration of the assertion is short (time configurable by the user) the system will triggeran interrupt that, commonly, indicates the host processor that the system should entersuspend state.nIf the low-pulse duration is long enough (again, time configurable by the user) the system willtrigger the power off interrupt, to indicate the host processor to start a transition to OFFstate.nIf the system does not enter OFF state before a configurable guard timer expires, the MCA willautomatically set the OFF state.Digi recommends you use an external pull-up resistor of 100K to VCC_MCA in this SWD_CLK/PWR_IOline.
About the ConnectCore® 6UL CryptoAuthentication deviceConnectCore® 6UL Hardware Reference Manual 33MCA_VIN_DET signalThe on-module MCA is powered from a dedicated external power rail, VCC_MCA. As recommended inthe reference designs (see Power supply architecture), this power supply is provided by an external3.3V regulator. If the system requires system time to be kept when there is no power, you must use acoin-cell battery to power the MCA while it keeps the RTC up to date in low-power mode. The MCAuses the MCA_VIN_DET input to monitor the input voltage and automatically switch to RTC mode tokeep the system time and save power. Follow the design guidelines provided inPower supplyarchitectureto apply the proper voltage to MCA_VIN_DET when there is a coin-cell battery in thesystem and when there is not.MCA firmware updateThe i.MX6UL processor can update the firmware of the MCA. See the MCAsoftware documentation foradditional information about the MCA firmware update process.CryptoAuthentication deviceThe ConnectCore 6UL module includes an Atmel CryptoAuthentication Device. This is a highly securecryptographic co-processor with secure hardware-based key storage. It includes the followingfeatures:nPerforms high-speed public key (PKI) algorithms (ECDSA and ECDH).nNIST standard P256 elliptic curve support.nSHA-256 hash algorithm with HMAC option.n256-bit key length.nStorage for up to 16 keys.nTwo high-endurance monotonic counters.nGuaranteed unique 72-bit serial number.nInternal High-quality FIPS Random Number Generator (RNG).n10 Kb EEPROM memory.See the software documentation for information about supported cryptoauthentication features.Module pinout - general layoutThe ConnectCore 6UL module has a mixed pad structure. The module provides 245 LGA pins, 76 ofthem connected to the peripheral castellated pads. The general layout can be found on the followingdiagram:

Power consumption associated withother power domains that power carrier board peripherals (3V3_EXT and LDO4_1V8) will bediscounted from the values since they are powering external circuitry. However, the VCC_ENETpower domain (which is powered externally) as well as VCC_MCA (which is powering the on-module MCA) are included the module power consumption. So, the global power consumptionof the ConnectCore 6UL module is calculated as:nVCC_MCA: input power rail of the on-module MCA. While this power consumption is part of themodule, its input is different than the PMIC (VSYS) so it is measured separately. It's important
Module specifications Power consumptionConnectCore® 6UL Hardware Reference Manual 117to note that the MCA power consumption is very stable in run-time and fluctuates very littlefrom one use case to another. So, for this element, only three use cases are represented:suspend to RAM, power-off, and run-time.Note These power consumption numbers should be considered guidelines only, never as fixed orabsolute values. Actual values will depend entirely upon individual setup and system application.Note The wireless tests were run with the device in test mode. Since in test mode the system isconfigured to work at 99% time transmitting, these values can be considered to be the highest powerconsumption associated with each wireless mode. In real wireless transmission, many modes andmodulations may be used in a single connection depending on the environmental conditions, resultingin different power consumption numbers. See Power consumption: Real wireless transmission.Power consumption use casesThis section describes the use cases that were used to measure power consumption of theConnectCore 6UL module.SuspendSystem in suspend-to-RAM mode. The power consumption in this operation mode will be evaluatedwhen using and not using the PMIC Front-end LDO. See Power supply for more information about howto power up the ConnectCore 6UL module.CAUTION! You can achieve minimum power consumption numbers by disabling both3.3V power domains. However, in some applications it may not be possible to switchthem off, depending on what they are powering.Power-offSystem in power-off with RTC enabled. RTC is running in the MCA. The power consumption in thisoperation mode will be also evaluated when using and not using the PMIC Front-end LDO.IDLESystem up and running. Ethernet and wireless disabled.Decoding videoSystem up and running with the following configuration:nEthernet and wireless disabled.nFusion7 parallel display connected to the system.Includes two different use cases:nDisplay connected in IDLE mode (without decoding video).nCPU decoding video.CPU stressSystem up and running with the following configuration:
Module specifications Power consumptionConnectCore® 6UL Hardware Reference Manual 118nOne Ethernet interface up and linked. The other one disabled.nUSB connected to the system.nHanoi application running. (The Hanoi application stresses the CPU and put it at 100% workload.)WirelessIn all other use cases, wireless was disabled in order to ease the power consumption calculation. Thisdedicated section describes the power consumption of the ConnectCore 6UL modulewhentransmitting (in test mode) in different wireless modes on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz channels (seePower consumption: Real wireless transmission):2.4 GHz:n99% time transmitting.nChannel 6 (2437 MHz).5 GHz:n99% time transmitting.nChannel 120 (5600 MHz).In the real wireless transmission scenario, the ConnectCore 6UL module is connected to an AP(transmitting and receiving):nEthernet disabled.n50MB file transmitted and received between the DUT and the AP.nConnection in the 802.11g/n mode at 2.4 GHz (2437 MHz channel).nIn a real wireless transmission, modulation and bandwidth are configured automatically.Wireless UART BridgeHardware setupnConnectCore 6UL module mounted on a SBCExpress.nUART4 connected to a host PC serial port (through a TTL-to-RS232 adapter).nConsole connected to the host PC.Test case configurationnContinuous traffic through the UART4, commanded through the Console port (stressing bothUARTs):lChecks all bit rates below 115200.lChecks different parities and packet sizes.nWireless up and running:l100 K file transmitted and received between the DUT and the AP, so there will be alsoreception through the wireless interface.

Module specifications Power consumptionConnectCore® 6UL Hardware Reference Manual 119The power consumption contribution of the serial buses, as the I2C or the UART, is negligiblecompared to the wireless or a high CPU load (such as decoding video or executing dedicatedcomputational applications). See Power consumption: Wireless-UART bridge.Power consumption debuggingYou can use the ConnectCore 6UL SBC Express to simplify the design and debugging of optimizedpower consumption for the ConnectCore 6UL module. Specific current measurement options havebeen added for measuring VSYS and VCC_MCA going to the ConnectCore 6ULmodule. To use thecurrent measurement option on VSYS, depopulate R113 and populate J15. Connect a multimeteracross J15 to measure VSYS current flowing to the module. You can apply a similar procedure to R114and J16 to measure VCC_MCA current.You can also use the ConnectCore 6UL SBC Express to test VSYS supplies below 4.5V, which aretypically required for battery operation. In order to facilitate this mode, ground VPWR (R115 populatedand R6 depopulated) and leave LDOG unconnected (depopulate C1 and U1). To connect the powerconnector J3 to VSYS, populate R116. In this configuration, the module must be supplied by a voltagebetween 4.5V and 3.7V. The lower limit of 3.7V is mandatory for maintaining a 3.3V output on the buckconverters of the PMIC.Note The 3.7V lower limit only applies to VSYS and not VSYS2 on a battery-operated design, sinceVSYS2 is supplying only buck converters with much lower output voltage. In this configuration, you canconnect a battery directly to VSYS2 as long as you have a buck boost regulator for VSYS.
