AM335x : does AM335x support Brown Out Detector(BOD)?

Hi,

The TRM or Datasheet of AM335x doesn't have the term BOD. 

Does AM335x support BOD or a similar feature?

 

Thanks,

Devin

    Brown out detection (BOD) is a function normally implemented by the system power supply.  This function is a system level design task that requires the power supply to provide an early warning signal to the processor while holding the power valid long enough for the processor to shut down all critical processes. 

    AM335x does not provide any specific brown out detection features, but it could be designed to monitor an early detection signal form the power supply.  For example, an early detection signal could be connected to one of the interrupt inputs and software could be written to shut the system down as required by the application.
