TPS659112 + DM8168 question

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS51116

Hi

I'm designing power block for the DM8168 processor

There is a document whicn describes how to do it : TPS659112 Netra User Guide

and have a few questions:

why do I need additional DCDC to supply CVDDC? Cannot I use VDD1 of the PMIC? It is left unconnected.

The same concerns 0.9-V USB - cannot I supply it from one of the LDOs?

I'd like to simplify the supply as much as possible since I have very little space on board.

Ideal situation would be to use only the TPS659112 and some IC to supply DDR3 VTT , why not to use VDD2 to produce 1.5V for DDR3 and VIO to produce 3.3 for rest of the peripherals?

I assume that such choice was justified by power sequencing limitations, please confirm.

Regards,

Greg
