11. LDO18
The LDO18 is a built in low dropout voltage regulator which can be used if the host system does
not provide the core voltage VDD18.

For well-defined start up of LDO18, LDO_IN needs to be connected to LDOBAT_IN.
12. LDOBAT and Backup Domain
The LDOBAT is a built in low dropout voltage regulator which provides the supply voltage
VBAT18 for the RTC, backup SRAM, P9, P13, P22, P31, NSLEEP and NSHDN. The LDOBAT
voltage regulator switches in battery mode if LDOBAT_IN falls below 1.5V.
