5/ Installation

5.1. Power Control

5.1.1.

Power Supply

The SoM can be powered from a single 3.3V power Source at VCC pins. The VDD_SNVS_IN pin can be connected to
an external battery. If no external battery is used, it is mandatory to connect this pin to VCC.
NVCC_SD1 is used to power the SDIO1 interface. If UHS‐I mode is used, card voltage must be lowered to 1.8 V
according to pin SDIO1_VSELECT. If UHS-I mode is not used, NVCC_SD1 can be connected to VCC.
Small decoupling capacitors like 100nF should be used for each supply pin an should be placed as close as possible.
If USB is unused VBUS can be left floating. Otherwise connect VBUS to +5 V.
The following parameters should be delivered from the carrier board:

At power on, the SoM can cause a current spike of up to 1.5 A for 5 µs.
Make sure to have a low impedance path from the supply to the SoM or
enough capacity to buffer the spike, otherwise the resulting voltage
drop will lead to male function.

5.2. Reset pin

A low level at __RESET_IN triggers a reset. The module will stay in reset as long as __RESET_IN is grounded. If
unused, this pin can be left floating. No external components are required.
