i.MX93/PCA9451 Power Control Using Slide Switch

[tkato]

Hello,

I am designing a custom board using i.MX93 and PCA9451. On the EVK, I noticed that the ONOFF pin is connected to a push button for power control.
In my design, I would like to use a slide switch instead of a push button for power control. Could you provide any design examples for this approach, or explain how it should be implemented?

Here is my current idea:

• Pull up the ONOFF pin of i.MX93 to the power rail.
• Leave the PMIC_ON_REQ output of i.MX93 floating, and connect the slide switch to the PMIC_ON_REQ input of PCA9451.
• Connect the PMIC_STBY_REQ output of i.MX93 to PCA9451.

Any guidance or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your support.

Best regards,
tkato

This is not recommended, ONOFF pin has many function which is not on PMIC_ON_REQ pin, for example, 5s mandatory power-off, power-off interruption and so on.

anyway you can use PMIC_ON_REQ pin to implement simple power-up and power-down as you design. 

Any questions contact us freely.
