3.2 Power Considerations
The DM6435 provides several means of managing power consumption.
As described in the Section 6.3.4, DM6435 Power and Clock Domains, the DM6435 has one single power
domain—the “Always On” power domain. Within this power domain, the DM6435 utilizes local clock gating
via the Power and Sleep Controller (PSC) to achieve power savings. For more details on the PSC, see
Section 6.3.5, Power and Sleep Controller (PSC) and the TMS320DM643x DMP DSP Subsystem
Reference Guide (literature number SPRU978).
Some of the DM6435 peripherals support additional power saving features. For more details on power
saving features supported, see the TMS320DM643x DMP Peripherals Overview Reference Guide
(literature number SPRU983).
Most DM6435 3.3-V I/Os can be powered-down to reduce power consumption. The VDD3P3V_PWDN
register in the System Module (see Figure 3-1) is used to selectively power down unused 3.3-V I/O pins.
For independent control, the 3.3-V I/Os are separated into functional groups—most of which are named
according to the pin multiplexing groups (see Table 3-2). For these I/O groups, only the I/O buffers needed
for Host/EMIFA Boot or Power-Up Operations are powered up by default (CLKOUT Block, EMIFA/VPSS
Block, Host Block, and GPIO Block).
Note: To save power, all other I/O buffers are powered down by default. Before using these pins, the user
must program the VDD3P3V_PWDN register to power up the corresponding I/O buffers.
For a list of multiplexed pins on the device and the pin mux group each pin belongs to, see
Section 3.7.3.1, Multiplexed Pins on DM6435.

DESCRIPTION
Reserved. Read-only, writes have no effect.
Reserved. This bit should be programmed to 1 during device initialization (see Section 3.8,
Device Initialization Sequence After Reset).
EMIFA/VPSS Sub-Block 3 I/O Power Down Control.
Controls the power of the 8 I/O pins in the EMIFA/VPSS Sub-Block 3.
0 = I/O pins powered up [default].
UR0FC
1 = I/O pins powered down and not operational. Outputs are 3-stated (Hi-Z).
UART0 Flow Control Block I/O Power Down Control.
Controls the power of the 2 I/O pins in the UART0 Flow Control Block.
0 = I/O pins powered up.
1 = I/O pins powered down and not operational. Outputs are 3-stated (Hi-Z) [default].
(1) For more details on I/O pins belonging to each pin mux block, see Section 3.7, Multiplexed Pin Configurations.
