  • Page 13: Power Requirements

    Target Board Kit S3A1 (TB-S3A1) 5.2 Power Requirements TB-S3A1 is designed for 3.3 V operation. Please note that this also means that 5 V PMOD devices cannot be used together with the TB-S3A1 unless they are powered separately. The total current available from the LDO regulator for all connected circuits is 600 mA or less, depending the 5 V power source used.
  • Page 14 5.2.1.3 Option 3: Test Points TP1 and TP2 TB-S3A1 can also be powered by installing a 3.3 V source across TP1 (positive input) and TP2 (negative input). Copper jumper E35 must be open to enable powering the board using these test points.
  • Page 15: Powering Up The Board

    An external battery source may be connected to VBAT at Pin Header location J2-29 (J2-12 ground return) to maintain the MCU Real Time Clock (RTC) when other main power sources are disconnected from TB-S3A1. 5.2.4 Measuring Current Consumption Pad 1 and 3 of copper jumper E6, which is a dual trace-cut jumper, allow measurement of +3V3 MCU supply current.
  • Page 16 Renesas Synergy™ Platform Target Board Kit S3A1 (TB-S3A1) Figure 12. E6 on Target Board (Top Side) Figure 13. E6 on Target Board (Bottom Side) Once the shorting traces have been removed, there are several options to measure current: • Pins can be installed that allow connection of a precision multi-meter or bench meter, or leaded current shunt to allow oscilloscope or data logger connection.
