10.10 Basic Power Structure

The I/O buffers, logic, and clock block are fed by a 3.3-V power supply that allows them to function in a

TTL-compatible voltage range. Internal logic can be fed by a lower voltage source; this considerably

reduces power consumption. The PLL is fed by a separate power supply (VCCSYN) to achieve a highly

stable output frequency. The VCCSYN value is equal to the internal supply. For more information, refer

to Section 1.2, “Electrical and Thermal Characteristics,” in the hardware specifications document

available at wwww.freescale.com.
