Rext2 = 18KOhm L. Gonella
Transients • All inputs and outputs of the regulators are very noisy if looked at with a single ended probe • Most likely a ground problem cause the situation is much better when using a differential probe, except for one input • The input of Reg1 observed with a differential probe shows a disturbance of 250MHz freq and ~400mV amplitude which appears as soon as the clock is switched on Clock on Clock off L. Gonella
Transients • Reducing the bandwidth to 20Mhz it is possible to see the levels shifting • No transients are observed but this could be due to the chosen bandwidth • Single ended probes (passive (blue), active (pink)) I = 0.510A -> 0.290A I = 0.290A -> 0.510A Reg1 input Reg1 input VDDA VDDA L.

Voltages and currents • I is the current measured at the supply for the PP2 regulator board. It includes analog and digital current for the chip, plus 10mA biasing current of the PP2 regulators • Analog and digital currents (resp. Ia and Id) are calculated considering R = 1.9Ω for the type 2 cables L. Gonella
