12.5.4 Low Leakage Voltage Regulator (LLVREG)

ATmega128RFA1
• Low dropout (LDO) voltage regulator;
• Configurable to use an external voltage regulator;
The internal voltage regulators supply a stabilized voltage to the ATmega128RFA1. The
AVREG provides the regulated 1.8V supply voltage for the analog section and the
DVREG supplies the 1.8V supply voltage for the digital section. The DVREG is enabled
during startup and is switched off if the power-chain is disabled. The AVREG is enabled
only on request by either the A/D converter or the radio transceiver.
A simplified schematic of the internal voltage regulator is shown in
Figure 12-4. Simplified Schematic of AVREG/DVREG
The voltage regulators require bypass capacitors for stable operation. The value of the
bypass capacitors determines their settling time. The bypass capacitors shall be placed
as close as possible to the pins and shall be connected to ground with the shortest
possible traces.
The voltage regulators can be configured with the register VREG_CTRL. It is
recommended to use the internal regulators but it is also possible to supply the low
voltage domains by an external voltage supply. For this configuration the internal
regulators need to be switched off by setting the register bits to the values
AVREG_EXT = 1 and DVREG_EXT = 1 (see
Control and Status Register" on page
must then be connected to the pins 13, 14 (DVDD) and pin 29 (AVDD). When turning
on the external supply ensure a sufficiently long stabilization time before interacting with
the ATmega128RFA1.
The status bits AVDD_OK = 1 and DVDD_OK = 1 of register VREG_CTRL indicate an
enabled and stable internal supply voltage. Reading value 0 indicates that the internal
supply voltage is disabled or not yet settled to the final value.
Note that disabling the digital voltage regulator by DVREG_EXT bit is for internal use
only.
The main digital voltage regulator (DVREG) will be switched off during the deep sleep
modes “power-down” and “power-save”. The Low Leakage Voltage Regulator will then
keep the digital supply voltage to provide data retention. No application software control
is required.
During the active power states, when the main voltage regulator supplies the chip, the
Low Leakage Voltage Regulator is digitally calibrated. Its output voltage is adjusted to
match the output voltage of the main regulator. This fixed calibration result is stored and
used when the chip enters a power-down state where the main regulator is switched off.
