Slide Switch S2

TE0320 is provided with a slide switch S2.
Slide switch S2 conditions the value of signal PS_EN.
In this way, S2 conditionally/unconditionally enables the 1.2 V and 2.5 V power rails.

Figure 34: Slide switch S2 schematic.


Figure 35: When slide switch S2 = FX2 PON, signal PS_EN is set to signal FX2_PS_EN driven by the EZ-USB FX2LP USB FX2 microcontroller under user control.

When S2 is turned on (FX2 PON), the 1.2 V and 2.5 V power rails are controlled by the USB (EZ-USB FX2LP USB FX2) microcontroller. At start-up, the USB microcontroller switches off the 1.2 V and 2.5 V power rails and starts up the module in low-power mode. After enumeration, the USB microcontroller firmware switches the 1.2 V and 2.5 V power rails on, if enough current is available from the USB bus.

When S2 is turned off, the 1.2 V and 2.5 V power rails are always enabled.

S2 position	Default position	Effect on 1.2 V and 2.5 V rails
FX2 PON (on)		1.2 V and 2.5 V rails controlled by USB FX2 microcontroller (signal FX2_PS_EN) PS_EN = FX2_PS_EN = 1 or 0
PON (off)		1.2 V and 2.5 V rails always enabled (PS_EN = 1) PS_EN ≠ FX_PS_EN = 1 or 0

Table 14: Slide switch S2 settings overview (1.2 V and 2.5 V rails only).

Signal FX2_PS_EN

To command signal FX2_PS_EN, read the reference firmware code.
IOD = 0x03; // Enable PS_EN and disable PROG_B
OED = 0x03; // Configure PS_EN and PROG as outputs

When slide switch S2 is in the left position ( = FX2 PON : power rails conditionally on depending on signal FX2_PS_EN), signal PS_EN is set to signal FX2_PS_EN (PS_EN = FX2_PS_EN) driven by the EZ-USB FX2LP USB FX2 microcontroller under user control (IOD and OED of fw.c).

Figure 38: S2 on position FX2 PON (PS_EN = FX2_PS_EN = 1 or 0 ).  

1. Dynamic full power operation (PS_EN = 1): when the EZ-USB FX2LP USB FX2 microcontroller sets signal PS_EN = FX2_PS_EN = high, power rails 2.5V and 1.2V are enabled.
   This setting can be useful for .
2. Dynamic low power operation (PS_EN = 0): when the EZ-USB FX2LP USB FX2 microcontroller resets signal PS_EN = FX2_PS_EN = low, the following components are switched off:

• • FPGA core logic (1.2V)
  • DDR SDRAM (2.5V)
  • FPGA bank 3 (2.5V)
  • VREF (2.5V)
  • VCCCIO0 (2.5V) FPGA bank 0 (if R131+R132- assembly)

 Alternate Assembly Options for Slide Switch S2

Slide switch S2 can be replaced by one resistors in the following cases:

• cost sensitive applications
• applications where just one position of S2 is required
• application where switching of S2 is not allowed.

Assembly option when resistor R17 not populated and R19 populated is equivalent to slide switch S2 permanently set to PON.
