Firmware and Testing Considerations
SYZYGY Peripheral Firmware
Provided SYZYGY peripheral firmware can facilitate the required power sequencing for peripheral designers. Since the VIO rail powers the bank IO for a given SYZYGY port, that IO should not be driven by the peripheral until after the VIO rail is up. The MCU can be used to detect a valid voltage level and use a custom delay to drive an enable signal to peripheral control logic.
Testing Considerations
- Programming
- Unit testing
- TAG Connect footprint
- Digi-Key can program Atmel in advance
