Overview

Opal includes a Dialog Semiconductor DA9053 which provides power supply and touch/analog features.
The DA9053 is available in standard (default part fitted) and automotive variants.
For detailed information on the capabilities of the DA9053, consult the Dialog Semiconductor datasheet.

Power supplies

This section details the power input and output requirements of the Opal module, as managed by the DA9053.

Input

Opal has 3 main input power supplies:

  1. DC input
  2. USB power input (VBUS)
  3. Li-Ion Battery (single cell)

In addition, there is a coin-cell battery input for powering the Real-time clock on the i.MX53.
The specifications for these inputs are shown in the table below.

Main power in from DC supply.

A-1 to 4,
A165-168

 

VBUS

-

Alternate main power if using a battery and USB charging. The DA9053 can manage the charging process and maintain current draw on this rail to the limits described in the USB specification.
The PMIC_D+ and PMIC_D- signals should be used to enable this functionality.

Battery connection. Use single cell Li-Ion.
Opal will not boot unless a battery or 47uF capacitor is attached to this rail.

Output

Opal provides several power rails for use on your base-board design. The following table details the rails available, and the maximum power that can be drawn.

Power Button and Boot

The DA9053 controls the supply rails during boot for the i.MX53.
This is initiated by pulling the nONKEY signal low. There are two configurations for this signal possible with the DA9053:

  • Power on when the key is pressed
  • Power on when power is applied (auto power-on)

This option is set in the DA9053 part at the (Dialog) factory and cannot be altered. The standard Opal part requires the nONKEY signal be pulled low before it powers up the module.
There are two options if you need auto power-on:

  1. Request a variant of the chip that enables this.
  2. Include an external reset device that provides the edge signal on power up to enable the module.
