Part Number: TPS6594-Q1

Tool/software:

In Table 3-3 of the datasheet for TPS65941319-Q1, what is defined as "Active SoC" ?

Is it just the bare minimum connections for the SoC to work?

Thank you

Hi Michael,

Pretty much. Of course following all the connections presented in the user's manual is recommended.

Hi Jari,

Ok, got it. My follow-up question might be naïve, but why does the Functional Safety column not include most of the pins from Active SoC (GPIO_3, GPIO_4, ...)?

Thank you,

Michael

Hi Michael,

To be honest this functional safety column to me is somewhat meaningless anyway. It is just confusing reader.

But maybe idea has been that since voltages might not be going to safety island they are not understood as functional safety.
