Device Description
The TWL6032 device is an integrated power-management integrated circuit (PMIC) for applications
powered by a rechargeable battery. The device provides five configurable step-down converters with up to
5-A current capability for memory, processor core, I/O, auxiliary, preregulation for low drop-out voltage
regulators (LDOs), and so forth. The TWL6032 device also contains nine LDOs for external use that can
be supplied from a battery or a preregulated supply. The power-up and power-down controller is
configurable and can support any power-up and power-down sequence (programmed in OTP memory).
The real-time clock (RTC) provides three 32-kHz clock outputs, seconds, minutes, hours, day, month, and
year information, as well as alarm wakeup and timer. The TWL6032 device supports 32-kHz clock
generation based on a crystal oscillator.
The TWL6032 device integrates a switched-mode system supply regulator from a universal serial bus
(USB) connector. The TWL6032 includes power paths from the USB and battery with supplemental mode
for immediate startup, even with an empty battery. The battery switch uses an external low-Ωic PMOS
transistor allowing minimal serial resistance during fast charging and when operating from a battery. The
TWL6032 device can also be used without the external PMOS transistor; the battery is then always tied to
the system supply and the switched-mode regulator is used for battery charging.

EVM Kit Description
The TWL6032 evaluation module (EVM) is a stand-alone module that demonstrates the functions of the
integrated PMIC. The EVM uses a USB cable and an MSP430™ device (mounted on the EVM) to control
the standard inter-integrated circuit (I
compatible software to interface with the device. The software is a simple graphical user interface (GUI)
that simplifies registers access for the IC.
EPROM Power-Up Sequence Description
This user's guide is common for all TWL6032x parts. The only difference in these parts is the EPROM
sequence for power up. Each part has a unique EPROM sequence to satisfy the attached application
processor. For details of the EPROM sequence, see the corresponding user's guide in the Application
Notes section on the TWL6032x product page.

Backup Battery
JP9 is used for the backup battery connection. The user can use the onboard 0.8-F, 3.3-V capacitor by
shorting JP9-1 and JP9-2.
VBAT and VSYS
Pack+/– (JP2) is the main source input to the PMIC. See Table 2 for the minimum and maximum levels
that can be applied to this pin. Use JP12 for ground; the power supply V+ is JP2 (1) and V– to JP2 (2).

VBAT
VSYS (JP1) is the main input source to the device. Table 3 lists the minimum and maximum levels that
can be applied to these pins.

VBUS (JP4) plug insertion is one of the power up events for the device; VBUS is set to 5 V. It is not
mandatory to plug in VBUS for power up of the PMIC.
SMPS
There are five SMPSs on the TWL6032 device. SMSPs can be loaded by connecting the load on
connectors JP13 and J3. Special consideration must be given to force and sense while loading on SMPS1
(JP13).
There are eleven LDOs on the TWL6032 device. Two LDOs are for internal use and nine LDOs are
available to supply external power.
Table 5 lists the maximum loads of the LDOs.

GPADC
The TWL6032 device has seven general-purpose ADC channels which are externally available and used
for various purposes; for example, battery temperature measurement, battery voltage measurement, and
so forth. See the TWL6032 data manual for a detailed description about the each channel.
JP5(1-2) must be connected to simulate the temperature measurements.

I2C Communication
The TWL6032 device has two slave I
internal configuration registers. The second is dedicated to SmartReflex™ applications such as dynamic
voltage frequency scaling (DVFS) or adaptive voltage scaling (AVS). J-1 is used to control the
communication between the GUI and the MSP430, which in turn control the PMIC.

•
.dll
•
.exe
•
.xml
The .xml file is the main file that contains all the device registers. The registers in this file are categorized
in blocks according to the functions. The .xml file also specifies the slave I
The GUI windows are divided into the following sections:
