POWR607 Device

This board features the POWR607, an in-system programmable, mixed-signal PLD that integrates high-perfor-

mance analog voltage monitors, 4 timer counter blocks, and a 16-macrocell programmable logic device. A com-

plete description of this device can be found in the DS1011, ispPAC-POWR607 Data Sheet.

Demonstration Designs

Lattice provides two demos that illustrate key applications of the Power Manager II devices POWR607 and

POWR6AT6:

•Processor Support - Demonstrates the POWR607 as a power manager for a processor, DSP, ASSP, or ASIC. It

integrates three functions traditionally covered by discrete ICs: voltage supervisor, reset generator, and watch-

dog timer. The programmable features of the POWR607 highlight its flexibility to be used in a variety of system

support roles. The processor support demo design is pre-loaded into the POWR607 by Lattice.



Note: The processor support demo program (JEDEC) differs slightly from the Initial Factory Configuration

described in DS1011, ispPAC-POWR607 Data Sheet. WDT_Intr output is active-high in the demo program, and

active-low in the factory configuration.

•Voltage Monitoring - Shows application of the ispPAC-POWR6AT6 to provide supply measurements via an I2C

interface. The voltage monitoring support demo design is pre-programmed into the POWR6AT6 by Lattice with

the I2C address of 0x6A.



Note: It is possible that you may obtain your POWR607 board after it has been reprogrammed. To restore the

factory default demo and program it with other Lattice-supplied examples see the Download Demo Designs and

Download Windows Hardware Drivers sections of this document.

Processor Support Demo

The processor support demo is pre-programmed into the non-volatile elements of the POWR607 and POWR6AT6

devices and is operational upon power-up. The design provides the following features:

• Detect voltage supply violations and assert a CPU reset if a fault occurs.

• Provide a 500ms, 2 sec, 10 sec, or 1 min period watchdog timer and assert a watchdog timer interrupt if a timer

expires before a watchdog trigger interrupt occurs.

• Assert CPU reset pulses if manual reset of the board occurs. Provide an optional 200ms pulse stretch of the

reset.

• De-bounce manual reset input.

A PAC-Designer software project (.pac) defines the analog trip points for the POWR607 voltage monitors, timer-

counter period, and supervisory equations that define logical functions.

Figure 3. Processor Support Demo Block Diagram

Table 1 describes the DIP switch, push-button inputs, and slide potentiometer settings that control the pre-config-

ured POWR607 and emulate a variety of processor support scenarios. Use them as a reference as you follow the

procedure. To indicate a ‘1’ (logical True) on the DIP switch SW1, slide the switch towards the number indicated on

the switch body. Note the circuit board silkscreen markings for: VM3=1.8, RST=0, SEL0=0, and SEL1=0.

500ms WDT (SEL0=0, SEL1=0)

Enables a 500ms period watchdog timer (WDT).

When active, the POWR607 will monitor the terminal count (TC) value a programmable timer. Once

500ms expires, the WDT_Intr output is asserted. An amber WDT_INT LED (D11) will light momentarily

to indicate the WDT interrupt input to the processor/DSP is active. Once activated, you may reset the

WDT by pressing the push-button switch (WD_Trig) to emulate a WDT trigger event asserted by the pro-

cessor/DSP.

A red LED D5 will light when SEL0=0 and LED D6 will light when SEL1=0.

Note: For the demonstration scenario, an additional transistor circuit of the evaluation board stretches

WDT_Intr output period to make the interrupt event visible to the eye.

XX10 2 sec WDT (SEL0=1, SEL1=0)

Enables a 2-second period watchdog timer (WDT).

XX01 10 sec WDT (SEL0=0, SEL1=1)

Programmable clock and timer functions of the POWR607 allow for a variety of timeout intervals from 32

us to 1.96 sec in 128 steps. It may be necessary to connect a logic analyzer to detect the pulse

stretch.

0XXX 1.8 V Supply OK (VM3=1.8)

Connects the 1.8V supply rail to the voltage monitor input (VMON3) of the POWR607.

This setting emulates a stable 1.8 V supply.

1XXX 1.8 V Supply Failure (VM3=High-Z)

Disconnects the 1.8 V supply rail from the voltage monitor input (VMON3) of the POWR607.

This setting emulates a DC-DC converter or other supply failure on the PCB. The POWR607 will assert

the Reset_CPU output signal to initiate a reset of the processor/DSP target device. A red LED (D2) will

light to indicate the power fail condition.

Push-button Switch

See Adding Support for a JTAG Cable and/or I2C Communications in the Modifying the POWR607/6AT6 Evaluation

Board section for information on how to modify the evaluation board to add a JTAG header connection.

Run the Processor Support Demo

The POWR607 Processor Support Demo illustrates key functions of the POWR607: voltage supervisor, reset gen-

erator, and watchdog timer (WDT). The block diagram of the processor support demo, Figure 3, shows the

POWR607 interface to a simulated processor/DSP. LEDs and switches are used to emulate the processor inter-

face.

Many processor power management scenarios can be shown with the POWR607 evaluation board. Follow the pro-

cedure below to emulate one particular case.

1. Set the POWR607 configuration to indicate 1.8 V Supply OK, disable reset pulse stretch and enable a two- sec-

ond watchdog timer period. 



Select DIP Switch (1, 2, 3, 4) = 0010



Note: To indicate a logical 1, slide the switch towards the 1, 2, 3, or 4 numeral marks on the case. Select the

R16 Slider = 3.3 V position.

2. Press and then release the Reset push button. 



The POWR607 Evaluation Board is reset. The CPU Reset LED (D2) lights to indicate the reset condition. The

WDT timer is reset and the two-second WDT count begins.

3. Press and release the WD_Trig push button.



The WDT_Trig signal is asserted by the processor/DSP. The POWR607 timer/counter is reset and the two- sec-

ond watchdog timer restarts.



Continue pressing the WD_Trig to “pet” the watchdog timer to prevent the two-second timeout.

4. Wait for two seconds and allow the WDT timer period to expire.



The POWR607 asserts the WDT_Intr output signal and the WDT_Interrupt LED (D11) lights momentarily to

indicate the interrupt condition.



In the next step you will increase the watchdog timer period from 2 seconds to 10 seconds and enable Reset

Pulse Stretch.

5. Select SW1 (1, 2, 3, 4) = 0101. Also select the R16 Slider = 3.3 V position. Press and release the Reset push

button on the POWR607 board.



The CPU Reset LED (D2) light indicates the reset condition. The WDT timer is reset and the 10-second WDT

count begins.



The following steps emulate a brown out condition of a 2.5 V supply rail output of a DC-to-DC converter (DC-

DC#2) monitored by the POWR607.

POWR607/6AT6 Evaluation Board

6. Slowly slide R16 towards the 0.0 V position. 



Once the POWR607 voltage monitor detects the 2.5 V supply rail has dropped below a 2.5 V -5% threshold

value a supply fault will be triggered and the Reset CPU output signal is asserted. The CPU Reset LED (D2)

light indicates the reset condition. Note that the POWR607 watchdog timer is also disabled.

7. Slide R16 toward the 3.3 V position. Once the POWR607 voltage monitor detects that the 2.5 V rail is above a

threshold value of 2.5 V -5%, the Reset CPU output signal is released. The CPU Reset LED (D2) light goes out.

Run the Voltage Monitoring Demo

The voltage monitor demo illustrates how to access the 2-wire I2C slave interface of the ispPAC-POWR6AT6 device

to perform voltage level measurements. This is a popular means for a microcontroller/microprocessor to monitor

voltages and adjust the voltage profiles of the POWR6AT6 DC-DC converter margin output drivers. For more infor-

mation on POWR6AT6 end applications see AN6077, Stable Operation of DC-DC Converters with Power Manager

Closed Loop Trim. This demo uses the ispPAC-POWR6AT6 I2C Utility software provided with PAC-Designer soft-

ware running on a host PC to emulate a processor’s interface to the POWR6AT6.

1. Modify the evaluation board to use the JTAG cable. See Adding Support for a JTAG Cable and/or I2C Communi-

cations in the Modifying the POWR607/6AT6 Evaluation Board section for more information.

2. Install PAC-Designer software.

3. From the PAC-Designer<ver>\Macro directory, run PowerManager_6AT6_I2C_Utility.exe. For more information
