Questions regarding AM3358 DPLL Power Supply Requirement and the Input Clock

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AM3358

Questions regarding AM3358

 

 Hello, I am currently considering using the ARM processor, AM3358 and have a few questions about it as stated below

 

1.    About the DPLL Power Supply Requirement

 

 The table above indicates that “Max peak-to-peak supply noise” of “VDDS_PLL_DDR” is 0 mV.

 I would like to make sure that this information is correct. Could you confirm whether or not “Max peak-to-peak supply noise” of “VDDS_PLL_DDR” is 0 mV ?

 

2.    About Designing the Input Clock

1)     I am considering connecting both OSC0 and OSC1 to LVCMOS Digital Clock Source. In that case, is it okay if I set the Input Clock Voltage Level to 1.8[V] which is the same voltage level for VDDS_OSC?

2)     As for the GNDs shown in the figure below, is it okay if I set them as Normal Digital Grounds?

 


 

Your prompt response regarding this request would be greatly appreciated.

If you have any questions regarding this request, please contact me through email.

I look forward to hearing from you soon. Thank you for your help in advance.

 

 

Yours sincerely,

Sang Gil. Shin.

  • Thanks for highlighting the AM335x Data Sheet error.  The Max peak-to-peak supply noise of VDDS_PLL_DDR should be 50 mV.

    The LVCMOS digital clock source connected to the OSC0 XTALIN terminal should be powered by the same source as connected to VDDS_OSC terminal.

    The LVCMOS digital clock source connected to the OSC1 RTC_XTALIN terminal should be powered by the same source as connected to VDDS_RTC terminal.

    Both VDDS_OSC and VDDS_RTC terminals have a recommended nominal operating voltage of 1.8 volts.

    The OSC0 VSS_OSC terminal and OSC1 VSS_RTC terminal should be connected to the digital ground when using external LVCMOS clock sources.

    Regards,
    Paul
