EFP (Energy Friendly PMIC) Driver Documentation#


Introduction#

The EFP is a flexible, highly efficient, multi-output power management IC. This driver provides an API to configure and control EFP ICs. The EFP is controlled by the host SoC using an I2C bus. The driver support systems with multiple EFP ICs.


Configuring the EFP driver#

EFP component provides multiple configurations options. You can add as many instances as you have EFPs in the system (efp0, efp1, ...) and each instance have its own configurations options. EFP instance is configured through the configuration file sl_efp_{instance}_config.h (which {instance} is the instance name (efp0, efp1, ...)). This file is inside the config folder of your project.

The configurations options are used to populate the initialization structure in sl_efp_instances.c. This file is inside the autogen folder of your project. Simplicity Studio provides a graphic interface to configure EFP, and this will be reflected in the configuration file.

Here is an example of an initialization structure for instance efp0 using the configuration file.

sl_efp_init_data_t sl_efp_efp0_init = {
  .reset_to_default = SL_EFP_EFP0_RESET_TO_DEFAULT, // Reset EFP to out-of-reset defaults during initialization
  .config_size = 0,                                 // No initial config
  .config_data = NULL,                              // No config data
  .handoff_size = 0,                                // No initial DCDC handoff configuration config
  .handoff_parameters = NULL,                       // No initial DCDC handoff configuration parameters
  .is_host_efp = SL_EFP_EFP0_POWERS_HOST,           // This EFP powers host
  .em_transition_mode = SL_EFP_EFP0_EM_CTRL_MODE,   // EFP EM transition mode
  .irq_pin_mode = SL_EFP_EFP0_IRQ_MODE,             // Init EFP IRQ mode
  .irq_port = SL_EFP_EFP0_IRQ_PORT,                 // EFP IRQ port
  .irq_pin = SL_EFP_EFP0_IRQ_PIN,                   // EFP IRQ pin
  .i2c_peripheral = SL_EFP_EFP0_I2C_PERIPHERAL,     // I2C port instance
  .i2c_scl_port = SL_EFP_EFP0_I2C_SCL_PORT,         // SCL port
  .i2c_scl_pin = SL_EFP_EFP0_I2C_SCL_PIN,           // SCL pin
  .i2c_sda_port = SL_EFP_EFP0_I2C_SDA_PORT,         // SDA port
  .i2c_sda_pin = SL_EFP_EFP0_I2C_SDA_PIN,           // SDA pin
#if defined(SL_EFP_EFP0_I2C_ROUTE_LOC)
  .i2c_port_location = SL_EFP_EFP0_I2C_ROUTE_LOC,   // I2C location number
#endif
#if defined(SL_EFP_EFP0_I2C_SCL_LOC)
  .i2c_scl_port_location = SL_EFP_EFP0_I2C_SCL_LOC, // SCL port location
  .i2c_sda_port_location = SL_EFP_EFP0_I2C_SDA_LOC, // SDA port location
#endif
};

Some configurations options must be added manually in the application. From the above initialization structure, handoff_size and handoff_parameters are generated by EFP Configurator.

Here are the configuration options found in sl_efp_{instance}_config.h and used in initialization structure.

Configuration options:

  • Energy mode transition mode. Host SoC can use several methods for changing EFP energy mode. Methods are either direct mode or I2C mode. I2C mode changes EFP energy mode with I2C commands, direct mode uses level transitions on I2C SDA and SCL lines. This provides fast energy mode transitions. Direct mode is achieved by host SoC using GPIO bit-banging or automatically by EMU hardware on SoCs with built-In EFP support (check EMU section of reference manual for EFP support).

  • EFP interrupt. The EFP has an interrupt line that can be useful for a host SoC. Set this option to have the EFP driver configure a GPIO for this use.

  • EFP powers host SoC. Set if the EFP IC power the host SoC, there can only be one EFP with this option in a system.

  • Reset EFP. Set to reset EFP to default values during initialization.

  • I2C instance: Select which I2C peripheral to use.

  • GPIO definitions for I2C SDA/SCL and IRQ pins.

Here is an example configuration file for the board BRD4179B:

EFP driver example code#

Note

  • Examples here are just code snippet for API illustration. Use Simplicity Studio to add full support for EFP component usage.

Basic example 1: Let VOA drive DVDD.

#include "sl_efp.h"
#include "sl_efp_instances.h"
#include "sl_efp_efp0_config.h"

int main( void )
{

  ...

  // Initialize EFP.
  sl_efp_init(sl_efp_efp0, &sl_efp_efp0_init);

  // Set voltage regulator A (VOA) output voltage and peak currents.
  // Peak currents value could be obained using EFP Configurator.
  sl_efp_set_voa_em01_ipk(sl_efp_efp0, 0x12);  // Peak Current setting for DCDC A in EM0
  sl_efp_set_voa_em23_ipk(sl_efp_efp0, 0x04);  // Peak Current setting for DCDC A in EM2

  // Set VOA output mode
  sl_efp_set_voa_mode(sl_efp_efp0, efp_voa_mode_wired_buck_ldo);

  // Set VOA voltage to 1.8V
  sl_efp_set_voa_voltage(sl_efp_efp0, 1800);

  ...

}


Basic example 2: VOB drives Decouple input.

In this example, handoff parameters must be defined by using EFP Configurator tool in Simplicity Studio.

It generates the header sl_efpdrv_calc.h. Copy this file and put it in your project.

As an example, here are handoff parameters obtained:

#define SL_EFP_DECOUPLE_HANDOFF_ARGS_SIZE  3
#define SL_DECOUPLE_HANDOFF_ARGS           {0, 7, 10} // (BK_IRI_CON, BK_TON_MAX, BK_IPK)

EFP Configurator generates also the config data to setup EFP options. Here is the config data output from EFP Configurator:

#define SL_EFP_GEN_SIZE 13

#define SL_EFP_GEN {  \
    {EFP01_VOA_V, 0x04},  \
    {EFP01_BB_IPK, 0x92}, \
    {EFP01_BB_CTRL5, 0x80}, \
    {EFP01_BB_CTRL6, 0x00}, \
    {EFP01_LDOC_BB_CTRL, 0x50}, \
    {EFP01_BB_CTRL3, 0xB5}, \
    {EFP01_VOB_EM0_V, 0x8D},  \
    {EFP01_VOB_EM2_V, 0x0D},  \
    {EFP01_BK_IPK, 0x48}, \
    {EFP01_BK_CTRL2, 0x50}, \
    {EFP01_LDOB_CTRL, 0x01},  \
    {EFP01_VOC_V, 0x05},  \
    {EFP01_LDOC_CTRL, 0x0C},  \
}

Main file:

#include "sl_efp.h"
#include "sl_efp_instances.h"
#include "sl_efp_efp0_config.h"

int main(void)
{

  ...

  // Set handoff parameters.
  sl_efp_efp0_init.handoff_size = SL_EFP_DECOUPLE_HANDOFF_ARGS_SIZE;
  uint8_t handoffParameters[SL_EFP_DECOUPLE_HANDOFF_ARGS_SIZE] = SL_DECOUPLE_HANDOFF_ARGS;
  sl_efp_efp0_init.handoff_parameters = handoffParameters;

  // Set config data
  // Pass array of custom settings to init function.
  sl_efp_efp0_init.config_size        = SL_EFP_GEN_SIZE;
  uint8_t efp_settings[SL_EFP_GEN_SIZE][2] = SL_EFP_GEN;
  sl_efp_efp0_init.config_data        = efp_settings[0];

  // Initialize EFP. This will disable internal LDO.
  // During initialization, a handoff happens and VOB will power decouple.
  sl_efp_init(sl_efp_efp0, &sl_efp_efp0_init);

  ...

}


EFP initialization code is generated automatically when creating a project with EFP component. In previous examples, initialization code including setting handoff parameters and config data is found in the function sl_efp_init_instances() under sl_efp_instances.c.

sl_efp_init_instances() sets handoff parameters and config data if they are defined and calls sl_efp_init().


Code for preparing for EFP interrupts:

For series 1 and xG21 (series 2) devices:

#include "sl_efp.h"
#include "sl_efp_instances.h"
#include "sl_efp_efp0_config.h"
#include "em_emu.h"

int main( void )
{

  ...

  // Prepare for EFP IRQ from Coulomb counter (CC) calibration flag. Flag
  // is set when calibration is done.
  sl_efp_write_register(efp, EFP01_STATUS_GM, 0xFF);    // Unmask all G flags
  sl_efp_write_register(efp, EFP01_CC_CAL, 0x28);       // Enable CC VOA

  // Setup GPIO interrupt.
  NVIC_ClearPendingIRQ(GPIO_ODD_IRQn);
  NVIC_EnableIRQ(GPIO_ODD_IRQn);
  GPIO_ExtIntConfig(init.irq_port, init.irq_pin, init.irq_pin, false, true, true);

  ...

  // Start CC Calibration
  // This will set CCC_ISDONE (calibration is done) flag interrupt and trigger an IRQ.
  sl_efp_write_register(efp, EFP01_CMD, 0x10);

  ...

}

void GPIO_ODD_IRQHandler(void)
{
  // Make sure any ongoing EFP I2C transfer is completed before writing to EFP.

  // Clear EFP IRQ flag.
  sl_efp_write_register(efp, EFP01_STATUS_G, 0x40);

  // Clear GPIO interrupt flag.
  GPIO_IntClear(1 << init.irq_pin);
}


xG22 and later devices have a built-in support for communications with EFP. There is a dedicated IRQ vector to use instead of using gpio interrupts. The interrupt should be enabled in EMU using EMU_EFPIntEnable().

#include "sl_efp.h"
#include "sl_efp_instances.h"
#include "sl_efp_efp0_config.h"
#include "em_emu.h"

int main( void )
{

  ...

  // Prepare for EFP IRQ from Coulomb counter (CC) calibration flag. Flag
  // is set when calibration is done.
  sl_efp_write_register(efp, EFP01_STATUS_GM, 0xFF);    // Unmask all G flags
  sl_efp_write_register(efp, EFP01_CC_CAL, 0x28);       // Enable CC VOA

  // Setup GPIO interrupt.
  NVIC_ClearPendingIRQ(EMUEFP_IRQn);
  NVIC_EnableIRQ(EMUEFP_IRQn);

  // Enable EFP interrupt in EMU.
  EMU_EFPIntEnable(EMU_EFPIF_EFPIF);

  ...

  // Start CC Calibration
  // This will set CCC_ISDONE (calibration is done) flag interrupt and trigger an IRQ.
  sl_efp_write_register(efp, EFP01_CMD, 0x10);

  ...

}

void EMUEFP_IRQHandler(void)
{
  // Make sure any ongoing EFP I2C transfer is completed before writing to EFP.

  // Clear EFP IRQ flag.
  sl_efp_write_register(efp, EFP01_STATUS_G, 0x40);

  EMU_EFPIntClear(EMU_EFPIF_EFPIF);

}


Example with custom EFP configuration data. The sl_efp_init() function can perform EFP configuration by passing an array of EFP {address,value} pairs.

This array can be generated by the EFP Configurator tool in Simplicity Studio.

#include "sl_efp.h"
#include "sl_efp_instances.h"
#include "sl_efp_efp0_config.h"

#define SL_EFP_INSTANCE_GEN_SIZE 10

// Array of 10 {address,data} pairs.
#define SL_EFP_INSTANCE_GEN {      \
    { EFP01_VOA_V,        4   },   \
    { EFP01_BB_IPK,       146 },   \
    { EFP01_BB_CTRL6,     0   },   \
    { EFP01_LDOC_BB_CTRL, 0   },   \
    { EFP01_BB_CTRL3,     181 },   \
    { EFP01_VOB_EM0_V,    13  },   \
    { EFP01_VOB_EM2_V,    13  },   \
    { EFP01_BK_IPK,       38  },   \
    { EFP01_BK_CTRL2,     80  },   \
    { EFP01_BK_CTRL1,     24  },   \
}

uint8_t efp_settings[SL_EFP_INSTANCE_GEN_SIZE][2] = SL_EFP_INSTANCE_GEN;

int main( void )
{

  ...

  // Initialize EFP, pass array of custom settings to init function.
  sl_efp_efp0_init.config_size        = SL_EFP_INSTANCE_GEN_SIZE;
  sl_efp_efp0_init.config_data        = efp_settings[0];
  sl_efp_init(sl_efp_efp0, &sl_efp_efp0_init);

  ...

}


EFP Built-in support in xG22 and later devices#


As mentioned before, beginning from xG22, devices have a built-in EFP hardware support.
A new Direct Mode interface with EFP is added for fast energy mode transitions. This Direct Mode allows to go to the lowest energy mode, EM4. When MCU pass from an energy mode to another it puts EFP in the appropriate energy mode automatically without software intervention. Use sl_efp_set_em_transition_mode() and sl_efp_enable_direct_mode() to enable direct mode.
Basic example using EFP to pass to EM2 energy mode:

#include "sl_efp.h"
#include "sl_efp_instances.h"
#include "sl_efp_efp0_config.h"
#include "em_emu.h"

int main( void )
{
  // Set EM2 init. This setup voltage scaling for EM2
  EMU_EM23Init_TypeDef em23Init = EMU_EM23INIT_DEFAULT;
  EMU_EM23Init(&em23Init);

  // Init EFP with handoff parameters defined. See example above to set handoff
  // parameters.
  // Init function will initialize voltage scaling in EFP according to the MCU's
  // voltage scaling.
  sl_efp_init(sl_efp_efp0, &sl_efp_efp0_init);

  // Enter to EM2.
  // This will enter the MCU into EM2 and therefore EFP pass to EM2 as well. EFP
  // will adjust voltage according to em23Init.vScaleEM23Voltage.
  EMU_EnterEM2(true);

}


Note

  • Voltage scaling with EFP is supported only in xG22 and later devices.
    Basic example to demonstrate voltage scaling in EM0:

    #include "sl_efp.h"
    #include "sl_efp_instances.h"
    #include "sl_efp_efp0_config.h"
    #include "em_emu.h"
    
    int main( void )
    {
      // Init EMU. This will set EM0 voltage to 1.1V (high performance voltage)
      EMU_EM01Init_TypeDef em01_init = EMU_EM01INIT_DEFAULT;
      EMU_EM01Init(&em01_init);
    
      // Init EFP with handoff parameters defined. See example above to set handoff
      // parameters
      // Init function will initialize voltage scaling in EFP according to the MCU's
      // voltage scaling.
      sl_efp_init(sl_efp_efp0, &sl_efp_efp0_init);
    
      // Change voltage on decouple to 1.0V (low power voltage)
      EMU_VScaleEM01_TypeDef voltage = emuVScaleEM01_LowPower;
    
      EMU_VScaleEM01(voltage, true);
    
    }
    


Warnings

  • EFP in EM4 mode is supported only on devices that have Direct Mode hardware support integrated in EMU (EFRxG22 and later devices). So this requires init_data.em_transition_mode == efp_em_transition_mode_emu.

EMU direct mode can be set in Configuration file:

#define SL_EFP_EFP0_EM_CTRL_MODE            efp_em_transition_mode_emu


The main:

#include "sl_efp.h"
#include "sl_efp_instances.h"
#include "sl_efp_efp0_config.h"
#include "em_emu.h"

int main( void )
{
  // Set EM4 init.
  EMU_EM4Init_TypeDef em4Init = EMU_EM4INIT_DEFAULT;

  // Enable Pin Retention through EM4 and wakeup
  em4Init.pinRetentionMode = emuPinRetentionLatch;

  EMU_EM4Init(&em4Init);

  // Init function will initialize direct mode.
  sl_efp_init(sl_efp_efp0, &sl_efp_efp0_init);

  // Enter to EM4.
  // This will enter MCU and EFP into EM4.
  EMU_EnterEM4();
}

Reset EFP.

Parameters
[in]handle

EFP instance handle.

Perform a full reset of the EFP, this is equivalent to a power on reset.

Warnings

  • When using the CMD.RESET bit, all the EFP's internal registers will be momentarily reset to 0's before being overwritten with the OTP defaults. This means that any enabled DCDCs or LDOs will be momentarily disabled, then re-enabled. If the load current on that output is large enough during this reset, the voltage may drop and cause a brownout. Recommend use of the sl_efp_reset_to_default() function instead, which simply reloads the OTP defaults without clearning all the registers to 0 first.

Returns

  • SL_STATUS_OK or SL_STATUS_IO on I2C transfer errors.
