Power Supply Architecture of the ConnectCore 6

The ConnectCore for i.MX6 provides a primary 5V power supply input. This supply is the main power domain to the on-module Dialog DA9063 power management IC (PMIC), which generates all required supply voltages for the module components as well as the carrier board.
The module provides support for a backup battery (coin-cell or super cap) powering the real­time clock (RTC) on the module. In addition, rechargeable backup batteries (ML414, others) are also supported.
The PMIC generates the following power domains that are available on the module pads:
• 3.3V (GEN_3V3)

ConnectCore for i.MX6 Hardware Reference Manual
As shown in the table above, the supplies have a wide operating range. In order to provide the most cost-effective and flexible solution for a given use-case, the supplies listed in the table need to be provided by the carrier board integrating the ConnectCore for i.MX6 module. However, PMIC power domains 3.3V - and LDO3/4/6/7/8 options - are dedicated power sources for supplying i.MX6 power domains.
The MCU - assist specific power domain (LDO3_MCA) available on the ConnectCore for i.MX6 LGA pads is a power supply output powering the on-module Kinetis processor.
The following diagram outlines the power supply approach of the ConnectCore for i.MX6. Inputs are marked red, blue marks outputs.

Bootstrap

The ConnectCore 6 is configured by default to boot in “Internal boot” mode. See the following table:
BOOT_MODE [1:0] Boot type
00 Boot from fuses
01 Serial Downloader
10 Internal Boot (default)
11 Reserved
Note:
• 10K pull-up populated on BOOT_MODE1
• 10K pull-down populated on BOOT_MODE0
By default, the boot media configured on the ConnectCore for i.MX6 module is the on-module eMMC. This is achieved by having the following resistors populated on the module:
• 10K pull-down on EIM_DA4 (BOOT_CFG1[4])
• 10K pull-up on EIM_DA5 (BOOT_CFG1[5])
• 10K pull-up on EIM_DA5 (BOOT_CFG1[6])
• 10K pull-up on EIM_DA7 (BOOT_CFG1[7]
• 10K pull-down on EIM_DA11 (BOOT_CFG2[3])
• 10K pull-up on EIM_DA12 (BOOT_CFG2[4])
When selecting “Internal Boot”, bootstrap pins shall be protected to insure a proper boot process. “Internal Boot” has the benefit that multiple boot media can be supported. For mass production, Digi recommends to use “Boot from fuses” for more security.

Signal Usage Limitations

The following signals available on ConnectCore for i.MX6 pads have a limited usage:
NVCC_EIM
NVCC_EIM
• SD1_CLK (pad L21), SD1_CMD (pad J23), SD1_DAT[3:0] (pads L20, J21, J22 and N24) are only available externally on modules which don't have Wi-Fi populated.
• SD3_DAT4/BT_UART_RXD (pad C22), SD3_DAT5/BT_UART_TXD (pad D23), SD3_CLK/ BT_UART_RTS (pad B21), SD3_CMD/BT_UART_CTS (pad E23) are only available externally on modules which don't have Bluetooth populated.
• NANDF_CLE/BT_WAKE (pad E22) is only available externally on modules which don't have Bluetooth populated.
• I2C2_SCL/KEY_COL3 (pad C3) and I2C2_SDA/KEY_ROW3 (pad F2) are used on the module as I2C signals connected to the PMIC and MCA processor. Using these signals externally should be done with caution, since it could prevent the module from working properly. It is recommended that you use another I2C port for connecting external devices to the ConnectCore i.MX6 module in order to avoid excessive bus load.
• NANDF_CS1/#MCA_INT (pad H21), CSI0_DAT11/ECSPI2_SS0 (pad A6), CSI0_DAT8/ ECSPI2_SCLK (pad D6), CSI0_DAT10/ECSPI2_MISO (pad K5) and CSI0_DAT9/ECSPI2_MOSI (pad D5) are connected to MCA processor. #MCA_INT is a signal reserved as interrupt between MCA processor and i.MX6 processor. The other signals are a SPI bus shared between i.MX6 and MCA processor. The usage and availability of these signals is depending on the firmware running in the MCA processor.
• ON/OFF (pad D18) signal is connected to PMIC and MCA.
• #POR (pad E18) is connected to PMIC and i.MX6 processor.

About the ConnectCore 6 Adapter Board

The ConnectCore 6 adapter board allows connecting the ConnectCore 6 module to the Jumpstart board for the i.MX53 (JSCCWMX53), providing connections and hardware to use most of the interfaces of the module for initial development and prototyping.
The ConnectCore 6 module is soldered on the adapter board. The adapter has two 2x90 pin connectors for connecting the board to the JSCCWMX53.
The following picture shows the block diagram of hardware formed by the ConnectCore 6, the adapter board and the JSCCWMX53. Dash boxes represent interfaces of the JSCCWMX53 that are not connected to the adapter board.
Refer to the Single Board Computer (SBC) development board design information posted on the Digi technical support website for a reference design based on a discrete implementation without using an adapter board.

5V Regulator

The adapter board has several interfaces that need a regulated 5V supply. To generate this supply one LTC3125 step-up DC/DC converter is used. This DC/DC converted can generate a regulated 5V from a 1.8V to 5.5V input supply. The LTC3125 will maintain voltage regulation even when the input voltage is above the desired output voltage.
The 5V regulator will be enabled by the ConnectCore 6 signal PWR_EN. On low power mode this regulator will be disabled. The following table shows the interfaces of the adapter board where the +5V supply is connected.

Coin Cell Connector

Coin Cell Connector, P5
The adapter board provides a 2-pin, 2.54mm pitch straight pin header for connecting an external coin cell or super capacitor to power the RTC interface when the main supply is off. If higher voltage is present on the main supply, it will be used as a power source for the RTC.
The following table shows the pinout of the coin cell connector.
Pin Signal Comments
1 VCC_LICELL Power supply for RTC
2 GND Ground
There are three types of components that can be connected to this connector: Lithium coin cells (Primary cell: non-rechargeable), Lithium coin cells (Secondary cell: rechargeable), and Supercaps. When a Primary Lithium coin cell is connected, the PMIC backup battery charger must be turned off and this pin is used strictly as an input. It is hazardous to attempt to charge Primary Lithium cells as they may vent or explode. Secondary Lithium coin cells are only made available directly to manufacturers of equipment that could use them, in that case they are normally required to design their product to prevent the user gaining access to this part since there is a danger to the user if by replacing it, they fit a primary type (the only sort that they are likely to be able to source) into the charging circuit. When a Secondary Lithium coin cell is used, both the charging current and the termination voltage are programmable. When a Supercap is used, both the charge current and termination voltage should be set to the maximum values.

ConnectCore for i.MX6 Hardware Reference Manual
The advantage of using a Primary Lithium coin cell is that the energy density usually allows years of service since the self discharge rate is low. The advantage of using a Secondary Lithium coin cell is that the self discharge rate is usually sufficient to allow a few months of support for the RTC before it will need recharging. The advantage of the Supercap is that it is intrinsically safe and can out-last the Primary Lithium coin cell option, however the self discharge rate is high meaning that a 1F capacitor at 25° C is likely to support the RTC for approximately 5 to 10 days.
A programmable constant charge current charger with a programmable top-off charging voltage is provided for charging of Secondary Lithium-Manganese coin cell batteries and super capacitors. Charging current is programmable from 100uA to 6mA. Termination voltage is programmable from +1.1 to +3.1V.
The minimum voltage of the coin cell supply is +2V. The maximum voltage of the coin cell supply is +3.6V.

Mounting

The ConnectCore 6 module has been designed with easy integration into existing SMT processes in mind. Guidance for mounting the module on your carrier board is given in this section of the document.
The ConnectCore 6 module is specified for one (1) soldering cycle only. Modules are also not sealed and therefore they should not be subjected to a wash cycle or similar treatment where condensation could occur. Contact Digi International for additional guidance to discuss conformal coating approaches and options, if needed.Solder Paste
The following solder paste type has been approved for mounting the module on a carrier board:
• SAC305 (Lead-free: Alpha OM-340 Type 4 or equivalent)
© 2014 Digi International Inc. 85
ConnectCore for i.MX6 Hardware Reference Manual
Solder Paste Print
The following solder paste printing parameters are recommended:
• Stencil Thickness: 0.15 mm/5 mil
• Stencil Diameter: One to one of Pad diameter (to +20% of pad)
• Paste alignment: 20% off the pad max (offset <20% pad diameter)

Stencil

The recommendation is to use a laser cut and/or electro-formed stencil for placing the ConnectCore 6 module. Based on the actual coplanarity characteristics of your carrier board, adjustments may be required to determine the optimal solder paste volume.
It is also recommended to perform an X-ray analysis of the initial production run of your assembly with the ConnectCore 6. Please contact Digi for additional support.

Coplanarity

The coplanarity measured on the ConnectCore for 6 is <0.001" bow and twist (98% confidence interval). It is important that the carrier board is also coplanar. If the carrier board is thinner than the ConnectCore 6 it is recommended that the assembly be supported during the reflow process, i.e. reflow fixture should be used to minimize the potential bow of the carrier card.

SMT Pick and Place

• Placement Nozzle: Large is available on the machine
• Nozzle Pick Surface: Center of Shield on i.MX6 SOM
• Placement Speed: Slowest speed for the machine
• Placement alignment: 10% of pad diameter (compensating for module weight and supporting alignment). The module should be placed last as part of the assembly/mounting process to eliminate unexpected shifting.
