Hi community,
I'm developing a custom board with the IMX6SL processor, based on EDK.
I will use integrated RTC and tamper detection, which both required an external coincell. I need some help to choose the coincell correctly. My system will run only when it is supplied from a wall USB adapter, so no other battery available.
Best regards,
1. this is max. value, typical 41uA as gives Table 12 i.MX6SL Datasheet
http://cache.freescale.com/files/32bit/doc/data_sheet/IMX6SLCEC.pdf
Low voltage of the coincell (below values in Table 9. Operating Ranges)
may not guarantee proper SNVS block operaton (time, tamper functions)
2. right
3. >when battery will be out of power, what will happen with tamper detection when I will bring back the power?
Fully powered processor will work fine according to its specifcations.
Best regards
igor

Thank you for your answer.
When a low voltage of the coincell condition occurs, Is SNVS block can generate a false tamper detection?
In that case, it will result with an "Activation of the security related hardware (e.g. automatic and immediate erasure of the
Zeroizable Master Key and deny access and erasure of secure memory contents)", so at next start'up software will be bricked?
How to deal with this kind of problem?
