Introduction

This section describes the Power Supply Unit (PSU) used on the G600 logic PCB and the method by which it is
controlled.
This section has detailed information on:
1. An overview of the circuit functionality
2. Powering-up the phone
3. Powering-down the phone
4. Power management

Overview

The circuit contains two linear regulators; 3.6V for the LCD and 3.0V for everything else, analogue and digital.
There is a low current step-up converter to provide 5.0V for the SIM interface. The battery voltage detector,
nominally set to 3.6V prevents the phone from powering up if the battery voltage is very low (to avoid deep battery
discharge), The detector also provides an interrupt to shut down the phone if the battery is suddenly removed −
primarily to protect the SIM.
The SIM power supply should be enabled and disabled as part of the SIM interface procedures and therefore falls
outside the scope of this document.
