14.7 CONFIGURING THE LDO REGULATORS
w
The configuration of the LDO Regulators is described in the following sections. Some of the control
fields form part of the Custom Mode configuration settings and therefore will not require to be set in
software in some applications.
14.7.1
The LDO Regulators can be enabled in software using the register fields defined in Table 81. To
reduce supply in-rush current, individual regulators should be programmed to start in different time
slots within the start-up sequence.
In the WM8350 ACTIVE state, the LDO Regulators can be enabled in software using the LDOn_ENA
bits. Setting these bits whilst in the Pre-Active state (see Figure 65) will not immediately enable the
corresponding LDO Regulators; these bits will only become effective once the WM8350 has reached
the ACTIVE state.
Each Regulator may be programmed to switch on in a selected timeslot within the start-up sequence.
The WM8350 will set the LDOn_ENA field for any LDO Regulator that is enabled during the start-up
sequence. Note that setting the LDOn_ENSLOT fields in software is only relevant to the
Development Mode, as these fields are assigned preset values in each of the Custom Modes.
Each Regulator may be programmed to switch off in a selected timeslot within the shutdown
sequence. If a Regulator is not allocated to one of the 14 shutdown timeslots, it will be disabled when
the WM8350 enters the OFF state.

Note: These bits can be accessed through R13 or through R176. Reading from or writing to either
register location has the same effect.
