PMIC_ON_REQ is Open drain or not

[ko-hey]

Hi all

I want to know whether PMIC_ON_REQ is open drain or not.

I would like to control PWRON of PMIC in two ways from another device.

One is PMIC_ON_REQ and the other is other external device.

According to the SDB schematic, PWRON is connected with PMIC_ON_REQ and PMIC_PWRON.

I think the PMIC_PWRON is Open drain so there is no problem.

However, there is no description that whether PMIC_ON_REQ is Open drain or not.

Is the PMIC_ON_REQ also Open drain ?

If yes, please let me know where I can find the description.

I have a similar question regarding the PMIC_ON_REQ configuration on the i.MX7D Sabre board.

It seems to be the same (PMIC PWRON is driven by both i.MX7D PMIC_ON_REQ as well as an open-drain PMIC_PWRON signal from a supervisor IC).

Is the PMIC_ON_REQ on the i.MX7D also open-drain? I ask, because it is not specified in the datasheet, and in the hardware development guide for the i.MX7D it says that PMIC_ON_REQ is a push-pull output:

If this is true, then whenever the supervisor IC pulls PMIC_PWRON low, it would be in contention with the i.MX7D push-pull output.  Can you please clarify this?

Hi Igor

The datasheet which you showed is for i.MX6D/Q. But I use i.MX6SoloX.

Is it same as i.MX6SoloX ?

Hi Ko-hey

yes. i.MX6SoloX was developed from i.MX6Solo.

Hi Igor

Thanks.

Can I request the description to NXP by TIC ?

Hi Ko-hey

if you have special reasons, please escalate this through local fae channel.

Note you will have to submit customer project info and (probably)

have valid NDA with nxp.
