OVERVIEW
The S3C8275X/C8278X/C8274X micro-controller has a built-in BLD (Battery Level Detector) circuit which allows
detection of power voltage drop or external input level through software. Turning the BLD operation on and off can
be controlled by software. Because the IC consumes a large amount of current during BLD operation. It is
recommended that the BLD operation should be kept OFF unless it is necessary. Also the BLD criteria voltage
can be set by the software. The criteria voltage can be set by matching to one of the 3 kinds of voltage below that
can be used.
2.2 V, 2.4 V or 2.8 V (V
The BLD block works only when BLDCON.3 is set. If V
BLDCON.2–.0, BLDCON.4 will be set. If V
minimize current consumption, do not operate the BLD block.
