Intel® PXA27x Processor Family Power Requirements
Note: The nRESET signal must be asserted earlier in the reset sequence for the processor. Refer to the Intel® PXA27x Processor Family Electrical, Mechanical, and Thermal Specification for
The sequence for initial
1.VCC_BATT power is applied to the processor and reaches a stable voltage of at least 2.25 V (initiating the
2.The PMIC must assert nBATT_FAULT because the main battery is not installed.
3.The PMIC
4.The PXA27x processor enables its internal PMU, which waits for the
5.The fully charged main battery is installed and the PMIC
6.The PXA27x processor asserts SYS_EN to enable the system
7.The PMIC enables the regulators driving VCC_IO, and then VCC_LCD, VCC_MEM, VCC_USIM, VCC_BB, and VCC_USB. The latter regulators power on and achieve regulation in any order.
8.After the 125 ms SYS_DEL timer expires, the PXA27x processor asserts PWR_EN to enable the PXA27x processor
9.The PMIC enables the regulators driving VCC_CORE, VCC_PLL, and VCC_SRAM. These regulators power on and achieve regulation in any order.
10.The PMIC
11.After the 125 ms PWR_DEL timer expires, the PXA27x processor samples the
nVDD_FAULT input. If nVDD_FAULT is asserted, the PXA27x processor returns to sleep or
12.The PXA27x processor continues its power up initialization by enabling the processor (13.000 MHz) oscillator and internal PLLs and switching the I/O supply power for the internal domains from VCC_BATT to VCC_IO.
13.The PXA27x processor

5.1.3Hardware Reset Behavior
Hardware reset initiates when the PMIC asserts the nRESET signal low. On assertion of nRESET, the PXA27x processor enters hardware reset state and asserts nRESET_OUT. The PMIC must hold nRESET low long enough to allow internal stabilization and propagation of the reset state, which is a minimum of 50 ms.
The sequence for hardware reset is as follows:
