Power supply
Power supply
Power supply architecture
The ConnectCore 6UL requires a primary power supply input. This supply is the main power domain to
the on-module NXP PF3000 power management IC (PMIC), which generates all required supply
voltages for the module as well as the external interfaces. The system can be powered from voltages
up to 5.5V. See Powering the system from a nominal 5V power supply (4.5V to 5.5V) and Powering the
system for battery-powered applications (3.7V - 4.5V) for recommended power schemes for the
ConnectCore 6UL module.
The ConnectCore 6UL module has a dedicated pin for connecting a coin cell backup battery or super
capacitor. You can enable a coin cell charger on the PMIC with Li-ion rechargeable batteries. This
backup battery or super capacitor is mandatory if RTC time must persist after the module has been
disconnected from main power. You must also follow the recommended diode configuration as shown
in 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 the
3.3V voltage regulator directly to the VCC_MCA and MCA_VIN_DET pins.

Power supply
Powering the system for battery-powered applications (3.7V - 4.5V)
Note In the implementations shown above, the coin cell/supercapacitor is connected to VCC_LICELL
pin of the ConnectCore 6UL module, allowing coin-cell charger applications. This VCC_LICELL
connection feeds the VSNVS regulator of the PMIC, which supplies the SNVS power domain of the
CPU. This power domain allows some functionality of the CPU in low power mode applications when
the main power supply of the system is removed. However, this connection significantly increases the
power 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 to
VCC_MCA). This removes coin-cell charger functionality but drastically reduces power consumption
and extends the life of the power supply. However, this connection significantly increases the power
consumption 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:
n Buck converters. Two buck regulators provide 3.3V:
SW1A: 3V3_INT, powers several interfaces inside the module
SW2: 3V3_EXT, free power line not used inside the module
And another two buck regulators used for internal supply:
SW1B: VDD_ARM_SOC_IN
SW3: VCC_DDR3

VSYS and VSYS2 are the supply inputs to the regulators and buck converters of the PMIC. Both inputs
are available on the module pads and can be connected to a single voltage input or to two different
voltages on systems that require high efficiency on the power system:
n VSYS powers SW1A, SW2, LDO1 and LDO34 (shared input for LDO3 and LDO4).
VSYS2 powers SW1B, SW3 and LDO2.
The power management IC located on the module is responsible for generating all required i.MX6UL
processor supplies. Some of the I/O supplies are set on the module. See the following table:

As shown in the table above, the supply has a wide operating range. In order to provide the most costeffective and flexible solution for a given use case, the supplies listed in the table must be provided by
the carrier board integrating the ConnectCore 6UL module. However, PMIC 3.3V and LDO power rails
are 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 PF3000
datasheet.
System power-up sequence
When the power supply is connected to the ConnectCore 6UL module, the PMIC and the MCA are the
first components to be powered up. VIN is the PMIC input power line, while VCC_MCA is the MCA input
line. The MCA starts to run as soon as it is powered up, but the PMIC follows a fixed initialization
process (see the NXP PF3000 Datasheet for a full description). In this initialization, the first regulator
to automatically be powered on is the VDD_SNVS_3V3. Once this regulator is up, the PMIC can be
switched on by controlling the PWRON pin (the on-off control line of the PMIC). This pin is controlled by
the 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 are
turned on following a defined sequence. Finally the CPU reset line (POR_B_CPU), which is also
controlled by the MCA, is released.

About the ConnectCore® 6UL
Bootstrap
The following time diagram shows the power-up sequence.
Bootstrap
The ConnectCore 6UL module can be configured to boot from different devices and interfaces as
determined by the Boot ROM. The configuration of the booting process of the CPU is done through:
n BOOT_MODE register, which selects the boot mode of the processor.
eFUSEs and/or GPIOs, which determine the boot configuration.
Four boot modes are available on the i.MX6UL processor. Selection between them is done through
BOOT_MODE[1:0] bits. The bits are externally configurable on two processor IOs, whose values are
latched during boot-up:
BOOT_MODE [1:0] Boot type
00
Boot from fuses
01
Serial downloader
10
Internal boot
11
Reserved
BOOT_MODE[0] and BOOT_MODE[1] are available on dedicated LGA pads on the module. However, on
the 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. This
means that in applications using only the castellated pads of the module, the only boot modes
available are Boot from fuses and Internal boot. However, once Uboot is running, you can select a
different boot mode (like serial downloader).
Boot from fuses
Boot from fuses is the recommended boot mode for production purposes. When this boot mode is
selected, you must configure several parameters in order to select and configure the boot device of
ConnectCore® 6UL Hardware Reference Manual
15
About the ConnectCore® 6UL
Internal boot
the system. These parameters are configured through fuses, which are burned in order to set their
values. This means that the configuration is irreversible.
BOOT_CFG1 selects the boot device through BOOT_CFG1[7:4] bits:

Raw NAND
There are many other registers that configure the different boot devices. For a complete description
of the booting configuration, refer to the NXP i.MX 6UltraLite Applications Processor Reference
Manual (Chapter 8: System Boot).
Internal boot
Internal boot is the recommended boot mode for development purposes. When this boot mode is
selected, the selection and configuration of the booting process is done through the same registers
used when booting from fuses. However, this time the values of some registers are overridden using
multiple GPIOs, which are latched during power-up.
The following configuration is done internally in the ConnectCore 6UL module in order to enable
booting from the NAND memory:

You must also set up BOOT_CFG1[7:0] register when booting from the internal on-module NAND when
Internal boot mode is selected. It must be configured externally (outside the module) as shown in the
following table:

Digi recommends you use 10K pull-up and pull-down resistors to configure each line.
The BOOT_CFG1 and BOOT_CFG2 register lines are not dedicated lines of the CPU. This means that
the values of these lines are latched during the power-up, but have a different functionality once the
system is up and running. In this case, these lines belong to the LCD interface. In order to protect the
value of these registers while the system is booting, Digi recommends you use a protection circuitry
as shown in sheet 3 of 7, "Boot selection," of the ConnectCore 6UL reference designs. See
ConnectCore 6UL design files.
Serial downloader
You can use the serial downloader boot mode for device recovery. The serial downloader allows you to
download a program image to the chip through a USB or UART serial connection. When any of the
standard boot modes is selected but the booting process doesn’t succeed (for instance due to wrong
booting device or corrupted images) the CPU automatically jumps to the serial downloader boot
mode.
Wireless interfaces
The ConnectCore 6UL system-on-module combines a wireless local area network (WLAN) and
Bluetooth (BT) dual solution to support IEEE802.11 a/b/g/n/ac WLAN standards and BT 4.2 enabling
seamless integration of WLAN/BT and Low Energy technology. Digi also offers a non-wireless variant of
the ConnectCore 6UL module.
The following sections include specifications for the wireless interfaces available on the ConnectCore
6UL module.
WLAN 802.11a/b/g/n/ac
The 2.4 GHz band on the ConnectCore 6UL module supports 20/40 MHz bandwidths, and the 5 GHz
band supports 20/40/80 MHz bandwidths.
The following sections specify the performance of the WLAN IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac interface on the

Antenna ports
The ConnectCore 6UL module has two antenna ports: one on the module via a dedicated
U.FL connector, and another on the LGA pads. Both antenna ports support WLAN and Bluetooth
functionality. You can use the control signal RF1_INT/nEXT to select between the on-module antenna
port (U.FL connector) and the external antenna port (LGA pad). This control signal has a 10K pull-up
populated on the module, which means that the on-module antenna port (U.FL connector) is active by
default. Pulling RF1_INT/nEXT low activates the external antenna port and disables the on-module
antenna port.
Bluetooth
The ConnectCore 6UL module supports both Bluetooth and Bluetooth Low Energy protocols:
n Bluetooth 4.2 (BT4.2); backwards compatible with BT 1.X, 2.X + Enhanced Data Rate, BT 3.X, BT
4.0 and BT 4.1 Bluetooth class 1 and class 2 power-level transmissions
Integrated WLAN-BT coexistence
RF control signals
The following signals are not supported by the current firmware of the WLAN/BT transceiver:
n WLAN_RF_KILL# (pad B17)
BT_RF_KILL# (pad B18)
WLAN_LED (pad B19)
BT_LED (pad B20)
Micro Controller Assist™
The Micro Controller Assist, or MCA, is a small microcontroller that is deeply integrated into the design
of the ConnectCore 6UL module. It assists the i.MX6UL processor with advanced operations related to
power management, security, and system reliability. The functionality provided by the MCA includes:

Advanced power management such as power key button, wake up sources, and PMIC control
in low power.
Peripheral extensions such as RTC, watchdog, and tamper pins.
The MCA and the i.MX6UL are connected through an I2C interface and an interrupt line. The
microcontroller provides up to eight general purpose IOs that can be configured with different modes
to provide functionality such as digital input/output or ADC.
The i.MX6UL can update the MCA firmware over the I2C bus. See the MCA software documentation for
additional information about this process.

Reset control
Asserting and de-asserting the MCA_RESET line wakes the ConnectCore 6UL module from any power
mode (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). The
MCA_RESET pin is the main reset input of the ConnectCore 6UL module. This pin is a pseudo opendrain with an internal pull up. Asserting the MCA_RESET line low sets the MCA into reset state, and it
remains in this state until the line is de-asserted.
During system initialization, the MCA performs the following actions:
n Asserts the PWR_ON line low for a configurable number of milliseconds (0-255 ms with a
default value of 50ms). This powers the PMIC off, switching off all regulated outputs of the
PMIC. You can disable this power cycle by setting the timer to 0.
Asserts the PWR_ON line high to power the system on (assuming it was asserted low before).
Keeps POR_B asserted low for a configurable number of miliseconds.
Asserts 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:
n tr1: 50 ms
tr2: 2 ms
ConnectCore® 6UL Hardware Reference Manual
25
About the ConnectCore® 6UL
Micro Controller Assist™
See System power-up sequence for more information about the power-up sequence of
the ConnectCore 6UL.
Note The POR_B line is also connected to the PMIC. The PMIC won't release this line until it is
switched on and the entire starting sequence is finished (a few ms after the latest regulator is turned
on). This means that even if the MCA releases the reset line before the PMIC is ready, the CPU won't
go out of reset. This occurs on the ConnectCore 6UL module: the MCA releases the CPU reset line by
putting the MPU_RESET line high but there's a delay since this GPIO goes high until the POR_B_CPU
line 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.
IOs
The 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 add
the components to the exterior of the module carrier board.

Digital IOs
All MCA IOs can be configured as digital inputs/outputs, which are powered from the MCA_VCC power
rail.
The digital outputs preserve the output value set in all operating modes, except in power off and coin
cell modes where the IOs are reconfigured to high impedance state to preserve power.
Note Since the general purpose IOs do not incorporate internal pull-ups or pull-downs, you may need
to add the components to the exterior of the module carrier board.
MCA IRQs
You can configure a subset of the MCA IOs as interrupt inputs, using the MCA software to configure
the active edge of the interrupt (rising, falling, or both). When one or more MCA IRQs are activated, the
MCA interrupts the main processor through the corresponding IRQ line, signaling the active IRQs in
the IRQ status registers.The IRQ inputs can wake the system from any low power mode (suspend or
power off).
See the MCA software documentation for additional information about how to configure and access
the MCA IRQ lines.
Analog to Digital Converter
You can configure up to five MCA IOs as Analog to Digital channels in addition to the ones provided by
the i.MX6UL CPU. The index of the MCA ADC channels corresponds to the index of the MCA IO. This
means that the ADC channel 0 corresponds to the MCA_IO0, the ADC channel 1 to the MCA_IO1, and
so on.
The result of the ADC conversion for a given input voltage is inversely proportional to the reference
voltage 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 of
resolution with right-justified, unsigned format output. These ADCs are suitable for low-frequency
sampling (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 access
the MCA ADCs.
ConnectCore® 6UL Hardware Reference Manual

About the ConnectCore® 6UL
Micro Controller Assist™
External voltage reference
The MCA_IO2/EXT_VREF pin provides an accurate voltage reference of 1.2V that can be used to
provide 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-todigital converter, an external capacitor of 100nF must be connected between the pin and ground and
as 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 configure
the pin for external voltage reference. See the software documentation for additional information
about how to control the function of this pin.
Note that the voltage reference continues normal operation in low power modes (suspend and power
off). Therefore, if the voltage reference is enabled during normal operation but is not required for low
power operation, Digi recommends using the software to disable it before entering low power in order
to minimize the power consumption, and re-enable it when resuming normal operation.
External 32KHz clock output
The MCA_IO6/CLKOUT32K pin is a 32.768 Hz square wave output that can be used as clock input by
peripherals requiring a low-frequency, high-accuracy clock.
Note The default configuration of the MCA_IO6/CLKOUT32K pin is as IO. You must use software to
configure the pin as 32KHz clock output. See the MCA software documentation for additional
information about how to control the function of this pin.
Note that the 32KHz clock output continues normal operation in low power modes (suspend and
power off). Therefore, if the 32KHz clock output is enabled during normal operation but is not required
for low power operation, Digi recommends using the software to disable it before entering low power
in order to minimize power consumption, and re-enable it when resuming normal operation.
Watchdog
The MCA implements a watchdog timer in its firmware. The MCA watchdog resets the system, or only
the i.MX6UL CPU, if the software running on the main processor fails to execute properly and does not
reset the watchdog timer on time.
ConnectCore® 6UL Hardware Reference Manual
28
About the ConnectCore® 6UL
Micro Controller Assist™
The main features of the MCA watchdog include:
n Configurable timeout between 1 and 255 seconds.
Configurable to generate interrupt or system reset.
Configurable to generate full-system reset (including the MCA itself) or CPU-only reset. Fullsystem 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 access
the watchdog timer.
Real-time clock
The MCA implements a Real-Time Clock (RTC) in its firmware. The i.MX6UL CPU internal RTCs are
disabled by default because the MCA RTC is preferred due to its superior power consumption
efficiency. To preserve the date during power-off, you must connect a coin cell battery following the
design notes provided in the Power Supply Architecture section. You must also connect the MCA line
VIN_PRESENT following the design guidelines in Power supply architecture in order to detect power
loss and automatically switch to RTC mode.
The main features of the MCA RTC include:
n Date/time registers to keep the system time (backed up by the coin cell battery).
Programmable alarm to generate and interrupt. This alarm can be used to wake the system
from low power modes (suspend and power off).
See the MCA software documentation for additional information about how to configure and access
the watchdog timer.
Tamper support
The tamper interface provides a mechanism to detect any unauthorized attempt to access the
system, such as the opening of the enclosure. The tamper support included in the ConnectCore 6UL is
implemented in the MCA with the following capabilities:
n Configure up to two tamper interfaces, each with an optional digital output.
Rely on tamper detection event in power-off and coin cell (battery backup) modes.
Register tamper event(s) in the non-volatile memory of the MCA.
Alert the host CPU when a tamper event occurs.
Respond to a tamper attack with actions such as erasing a critical data partition of the flash.
Tamper pins
The ConnectCore 6UL module supports up to two tamper interfaces (tamper0 and tamper1). Each
interface has an associated IO (tamper pin) used to detect the tamper event (through a voltage
transition on the IO) and, optionally, an output IO (tamper output) that can be used to enable or
disable peripherals, for instance to cut the power of a peripheral. The IOs of each tamper interface
can be configured independently and have the following configuration options:
n The MCA IO used for tamper detection, from the available MCA IOs that are IRQ-capable.
The active level (tampering) of the tamper input.
The MCA IO used as tamper output, when enabled, that is activated when a tamper condition
has not been acknowledged.
The logic level that is set in the tamper output when a tamper event occurs.
ConnectCore® 6UL Hardware Reference Manual
29
About the ConnectCore® 6UL
Micro Controller Assist™
The MCA IO table provides information about the capabilities of the MCA IO pins so you can easily
identify suitable IOs to be used as tamper inputs. Any MCA IO pin can be configured as tamper output.
Tamper pin configuration
To learn ore about tamper pin configuration, see Tamper detection interface in the software
documentation.
Power management
The MCA plays a key role in the power management activities of the ConnectCore 6UL module. In
cooperation with the i.MX6UL processor, the MCA controls the power states of the PMIC, provides
multiple wake up sources to transition between power modes. It also allocates dedicated signals to
capture power events and indicate the system power state, allowing you to control external power
sources and indicators.
Power modes
The 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.
ConnectCore® 6UL Hardware Reference Manual
30
About the ConnectCore® 6UL
Micro Controller Assist™
ON/RUN mode
The module enters the ON state after a power-on or system-reset event. In this mode, the PMIC is
running at full power so all voltage regulators are generating the nominal voltage for this mode. The
cpu reset line is de-asserted and the processor is running at normal speed, performing DVFS if the
system was configured to do so. In this state, the PWR_ON line is asserted low, indicating that the
module is ON.
Note that the specific state of the regulators (on/off) and the voltage in this mode are controlled by
the firmware running on the i.MX6UL processor. The PMIC starts with the default settings configured
on the OTP area, but once the software takes control it applies the specific configuration
implemented in the firmware.
SUSPEND mode
The suspend mode (also known as suspend-to-ram mode) is the low-power mode that allows the
module to preserve ram content. When the module enters SUSPEND, the following actions take place:
ConnectCore® 6UL Hardware Reference Manual
31
About the ConnectCore® 6UL
Micro Controller Assist™
The processor goes into low power, disabling as much functionality as possible and keeping
active only the peripherals configured to wake the system from SUSPEND.
The DDR memory is set to self-refresh mode to preserve its contents while reducing power
consumption.
The PMIC goes into standby mode, configuring the regulators in the configured mode (on, off,
with a different voltage compared to ON state).
The MCA goes into sleep mode, keeping active the peripherals that always run in low power
modes (like the RTC) and those configured to wake up the system (such as IRQs and power IO).
OFF mode
The module enters OFF mode after a power-off event. In this mode:
n The PMIC is set to the OFF state and all the voltage regulators, except VSNVS, are switched off.
The PWR_ON line is asserted low, indicating that the module is in OFF state.
The MCA goes into sleep mode, keeping active the peripherals that always run in low-power
modes (like the RTC) and those configured to wake up the system (such as IRQs and power IO).
COIN-CELL mode
In COIN-CELL mode, the module only powers the MCA from the coin-cell battery, leaving the rest of
the module power inputs switched off. In this mode, the MCA remains in sleep mode, updating the RTC
and monitoring the following events:
n Tamper events that would be registered in the NVRAM memory of the MCA and would assert
the Tamper output if enabled.
Power in MCA_VIN_DET, which indicates that there is sufficient voltage to generate a poweron event.
Power IO signal/Power button
The MCA provides a signal (PWR_IO) to detect external events that trigger a transition between the
different power modes described in Power modes. The pin has wake-up interrupt/event capabilities, it
is active low, and it does not provide an internal pull-up. (The pull-up resistor must be added externally
if required.) This signal is ideal for connecting a power button or the output of a peripheral that
controls the power state of the module and its transitions. The firmware provides a configurable
debounce filter to improve noise immunity and filter rebounds on push buttons. When the PWR_IO
signal is asserted low, one of the following events occurs:
n If the duration of the assertion is short (time configurable by the user) the system will trigger
an interrupt that, commonly, indicates the host processor that the system should enter
suspend state.
If the low-pulse duration is long enough (again, time configurable by the user) the system will
trigger the power off interrupt, to indicate the host processor to start a transition to OFF
state.
If the system does not enter OFF state before a configurable guard timer expires, the MCA will
automatically set the OFF state.
Digi recommends you use an external pull-up resistor of 100K to VCC_MCA in this SWD_CLK/PWR_IO
line.
ConnectCore® 6UL Hardware Reference Manual

About the ConnectCore® 6UL
CryptoAuthentication device
MCA_VIN_DET signal
The on-module MCA is powered from a dedicated external power rail, VCC_MCA. As recommended in
the reference designs (see Power supply architecture), this power supply is provided by an external
3.3V regulator. If the system requires system time to be kept when there is no power, you must use a
coin-cell battery to power the MCA while it keeps the RTC up to date in low-power mode. The MCA
uses the MCA_VIN_DET input to monitor the input voltage and automatically switch to RTC mode to
keep the system time and save power. Follow the design guidelines provided in Power supply
architecture to apply the proper voltage to MCA_VIN_DET when there is a coin-cell battery in the
system and when there is not.
MCA firmware update
The i.MX6UL processor can update the firmware of the MCA. See the MCA software documentation for
additional information about the MCA firmware update process.

Power consumption
This section contains data on the power consumption of the ConnectCore 6UL module using
measurements from the following power domains:
n VSYS: the input power rail of the module (PMIC input). Power consumption associated with
other power domains that power carrier board peripherals (3V3_EXT and LDO4_1V8) will be
discounted from the values since they are powering external circuitry. However, the VCC_ENET
power domain (which is powered externally) as well as VCC_MCA (which is powering the onmodule MCA) are included the module power consumption. So, the global power consumption
of the ConnectCore 6UL module is calculated as:
VCC_MCA: input power rail of the on-module MCA. While this power consumption is part of the
module, its input is different than the PMIC (VSYS) so it is measured separately. It's important
ConnectCore® 6UL Hardware Reference Manual
116
Module specifications
Power consumption
to note that the MCA power consumption is very stable in run-time and fluctuates very little
from 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 or
absolute 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 is
configured to work at 99% time transmitting, these values can be considered to be the highest power
consumption associated with each wireless mode. In real wireless transmission, many modes and
modulations may be used in a single connection depending on the environmental conditions, resulting
in different power consumption numbers. See Power consumption: Real wireless transmission.
Power consumption use cases
This section describes the use cases that were used to measure power consumption of the
ConnectCore 6UL module.
Suspend
System in suspend-to-RAM mode. The power consumption in this operation mode will be evaluated
when using and not using the PMIC Front-end LDO. See Power supply for more information about how
to power up the ConnectCore 6UL module.
CAUTION! You can achieve minimum power consumption numbers by disabling both
3.3V power domains. However, in some applications it may not be possible to switch
them off, depending on what they are powering.
Power-off
System in power-off with RTC enabled. RTC is running in the MCA. The power consumption in this
operation mode will be also evaluated when using and not using the PMIC Front-end LDO.
IDLE
System up and running. Ethernet and wireless disabled.
Decoding video
System up and running with the following configuration:
n Ethernet and wireless disabled.
Fusion7 parallel display connected to the system.
Includes two different use cases:
n Display connected in IDLE mode (without decoding video).
CPU decoding video.
CPU stress
System up and running with the following configuration:
ConnectCore® 6UL Hardware Reference Manual
117
Module specifications
Power consumption
One Ethernet interface up and linked. The other one disabled.
USB connected to the system.
Hanoi application running. (The Hanoi application stresses the CPU and put it at 100% work
load.)
Wireless
In all other use cases, wireless was disabled in order to ease the power consumption calculation. This
dedicated section describes the power consumption of the ConnectCore 6UL modulewhen
transmitting (in test mode) in different wireless modes on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz channels (see
Power consumption: Real wireless transmission):
2.4 GHz:
n 99% time transmitting.
Channel 6 (2437 MHz).
5 GHz:
99% time transmitting.
Channel 120 (5600 MHz).
In the real wireless transmission scenario, the ConnectCore 6UL module is connected to an AP
(transmitting and receiving):
n Ethernet disabled.
50MB file transmitted and received between the DUT and the AP.
Connection in the 802.11g/n mode at 2.4 GHz (2437 MHz channel).
In a real wireless transmission, modulation and bandwidth are configured automatically.
Wireless UART Bridge
Hardware setup
n ConnectCore 6UL module mounted on a SBC Express.
UART4 connected to a host PC serial port (through a TTL-to-RS232 adapter).
Console connected to the host PC.
Test case configuration
n Continuous traffic through the UART4, commanded through the Console port (stressing both
UARTs):
Checks all bit rates below 115200.
Checks different parities and packet sizes.
Wireless up and running:
100 K file transmitted and received between the DUT and the AP, so there will be also
reception through the wireless interface. The test is continuously sending the packages, so
more than one transmission is executed every five seconds.
Connection in the 802.11g/n mode at 2.4 GHz (2437 MHz channel).
I2C1 bus up and running (no specific actions taken on this interface).
ConnectCore® 6UL Hardware Reference Manual

Module specifications
Power consumption
The power consumption contribution of the serial buses, as the I2C or the UART, is negligible
compared to the wireless or a high CPU load (such as decoding video or executing dedicated
computational applications). See Power consumption: Wireless-UART bridge.
Power consumption debugging
You can use the ConnectCore 6UL SBC Express to simplify the design and debugging of optimized
power consumption for the ConnectCore 6UL module. Specific current measurement options have
been added for measuring VSYS and VCC_MCA going to the ConnectCore 6UL module. To use the
current measurement option on VSYS, depopulate R113 and populate J15. Connect a multimeter
across J15 to measure VSYS current flowing to the module. You can apply a similar procedure to R114
and J16 to measure VCC_MCA current.
You can also use the ConnectCore 6UL SBC Express to test VSYS supplies below 4.5V, which are
typically required for battery operation. In order to facilitate this mode, ground VPWR (R115 populated
and R6 depopulated) and leave LDOG unconnected (depopulate C1 and U1). To connect the power
connector J3 to VSYS, populate R116. In this configuration, the module must be supplied by a voltage
between 4.5V and 3.7V. The lower limit of 3.7V is mandatory for maintaining a 3.3V output on the buck
converters of the PMIC.
Note The 3.7V lower limit only applies to VSYS and not VSYS2 on a battery-operated design, since
VSYS2 is supplying only buck converters with much lower output voltage. In this configuration, you can
connect a battery directly to VSYS2 as long as you have a buck boost regulator for VSYS. While this
mode of operation is supported by the ConnectCore 6UL module, the ConnectCore 6UL SBC Express
does not provide options to test/evaluate it.

Note Continuous Rx
Continuously receiving data (continuous Rx) in test mode has almost no effect on the power
consumption of the module. In real transmissions, there won't be a continuous reception use case
because the system will be always transmitting some synchronization data when receiving, and the
power consumption will be increased as observed in Power consumption: Real wireless transmission
(but never as much as when transmitting).
Note These power consumption numbers should be considered guidelines only, never as fixed or
absolute values. Actual values will depend entirely upon individual setup and system application.
Power consumption: Real wireless transmission
The following plot shows the power consumption of the ConnectCore 6UL VSYS power domain during
a real wireless transmission:
The power consumption increase of the real wireless transmission is calculated by taking the mean
power consumption value of the transmission and receiver bursts:
Power consumption increase

Mounting
The ConnectCore 6UL module has been designed with easy integration into existing SMT processes in
mind. This section contains guidance for mounting the module on your carrier board.
The module can be configured and mounted in a Castellation OR Land Grid Array (LGA) form.
Modules are also not sealed and therefore they should not be subjected to a wash cycle or similar
treatment where condensation could occur. Contact Digi International for additional guidance to
discuss conformal coating approaches and options, if needed. The module is built with a No-Clean flux
solder paste. The module is provided to the user clean.
The following solder paste type has been approved for mounting the module on a carrier board:
n SAC305 (Lead-free: Alpha OM-340 Type 4 or equivalent). This is a No-Clean Flux solder paste.
Solder paste print
The following solder paste printing parameters are recommended:
n Stencil thickness: 0.100 mm / 4 mil
Stencil diameter: One to one of pad diameter (to +20% of pad)
Paste alignment: 20% off the pad max (offset <20% pad diameter)
Stencil
For both castellation AND LGA applications, Digi recommends you use a laser cut and/or electroformed stencil for placing the ConnectCore 6UL module. Based on the actual coplanarity
characteristics of your carrier board, adjustments may be required to determine the optimal solder
paste volume. It is also recommended to perform an X-ray analysis of the initial production run of your
assembly with the ConnectCore 6UL module. Please contact Digi for additional support.
Coplanarity
The coplanarity measured on the ConnectCore 6UL module is <0.003" bow and twist (98% confidence
interval). It is important that the carrier board is also coplanar. If the carrier board is thinner than the

Vapor Phase Profile Recommendation Using IBL 309 Batch Soldering Machine, SAC 305 LeadFree Solder Paste (Alpha OM-340)
For castellation applications, only one thermal couple is required. Digi recommends it is located
on a ground pad castellation.
For LGA applications, two thermocouples should be used: one located on the outer-most row
and a second located near the underside center of the SOM to ensure SOM is not exposed to
excessive temperatures.
The following image shows the reflow profile based on a ten-zone convection oven.
The reflow profile shown above is valid for the combination solder paste/reflow machine and Digi
reference carrier board. Optimization of a reflow profile will depend on the selected solder
paste/reflow machine (reflow or vapor phase) and carrier board design.
The ConnectCore 6UL module is approved to withstand a total of four (4) reflow cycles. Two (2) reflow
cycles are required for manufacturing the ConnectCore 6UL module. Two (2) reflow cycles are
remaining for mounting the module on the carrier board. Digi strongly recommends soldering the
ConnectCore 6UL module during the last reflow cycles of the carrier board manufacturing process.
Vapor Phase Profile Recommendation Using IBL 309 Batch
Soldering Machine, SAC 305 Lead-Free Solder Paste (Alpha OM340)
Recommend to keep SOM below 235°C during the reflow cycle for castellation AND LGA

Use of 40AWG K-type thermocouple and M.O.L.E or equivalent thermal profiler is
recommended.
For castellation applications, only one thermal couple is required recommended to be location
on a ground pad castellation.
For LGA applications, two thermocouples should be used. One located on the outer most row
