AM2432: Power PMIC implementation

Part Number: AM2432
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AMIC110, TPS650250

Hi all.

I have examined all of the power PMIC notes regarding the powering of my AM243x design using either the AM2341 or AM2432 processor, and I don't find a pre-programmed PMIC model that contains the configuration I need.  I am loathe to program them myself, as this seems to be a bit cumbersome for production.  I don't need enough (I think!) for TI to create a part number and factory program an LP8733x or TPS652XX part.  (I need about 300 parts for this first run)

I have adapted the design I successfully used for my previous AMIC110 design to provide the voltages I need.  

The configuration I have set up in the 650250 is as follows:

DCDC1 -- V_Core at 0.85V, 1.6A

DCDC2 1.8V at 0.8A -- Used for VDD_IO for processor and DP83822 PHYs, and other VDD_IO

DCDC3 3.3V at 0.8A -- Used for powering other parts, not the AM243x

LDO1 1.8V at 200 ma -- 1.8V processor analog power

LDO2 1.8V at 200 ma -- Ethernet PHY analog supplies

It would be nice to have more power available for future designs that might need more V_Core power or more LDO power, so using a TPS652XX part with the proper programming woud be great.  

I would like to know if it looks like this solution is feasible.  I have attached the schematic page with the PMIC implementation.  

Thank you for your assistance!
