7.21 DC-to-DC converter
The SAA8200HL needs two supply voltages, 3.3 V for analog functions and 1.7 V for
digital functions. For normal operation one or two batteries of 1.5 V will be used as an
energy source, from which the DC-to-DC converter must generate the required voltage
levels, see Figure 14. Two inductive DC-to-DC converters will be used when the chip is
battery operated. The VDDE pins are externally connected to pin DCDC_OUT3V3, The
VDDI pins are connected to pin DCDC_OUT1V8. When the SAA8200HL is supplied from
USB, the outputs of the DC-to-DC converters will be overruled by two linear regulators. In
that case the supply voltages will be 3.3 V and 1.8 V. This is independent from the USB
voltage (4.0 V to 5.5 V) so a reference circuit is needed.

During the start-up sequence the DC-to-DC controller uses the RING OSC to control the
switching regulators. After start-up the 12 MHz from the digital core is fed to the DC-to-DC
controller. In battery operation mode the output voltage DCDC_OUT1V8 and
DCDC_OUT3V3 can be controlled by three adjust bits. Care has to be taken with signal
levels (level shifters) and the start-up and shut-down from battery to USB and from USB to
battery transitions. A delay circuit uses RING OSC clocks to generate a delay of about
1 ms for the RESET_B pulse. In USB mode the delay can be generated otherwise.
The DC-to-DC converter has to operate from a single or from two batteries. This has no
consequence for the first DC-to-DC converter, this is always an up converter. In case a
single battery is used the second converter is also an up converter but it is a down
