SLG4PWRSQ-DMO

The SLG4PWRSQ-DMO is a power sequencer demonstration board.

Using the GreenPAK™ family of programmable mixed-signal matrix devices, it is easy to implement custom power sequencer designs in an extremely small area, using minimal power and board space. It is no secret that successfully powering up a system can be tricky, as well as powering it off. Timing, order of events, and power levels need to be just right for proper system functionality and stability. Using a power sequencer can prevent unnecessary current draw while portions of the design sit idle, waiting for prerequisite systems to be powered. Some FPGAs, for example, may require more than ten rails, which, if sequenced using discrete components, could introduce extra power and board space overhead. When paired with the tiny, ultra-low R_DSON GreenFET™ integrated power switch, power sequencing with Renesas is an incredibly efficient solution. Moreover, a power sequencer can be easily built on any GreenPAK IC.
