3.3 Reset and supply management
3.3.1 Power supply scheme
The device requires a 1.65 V to 3.6 V operating supply voltage (V
DD
). The external power
supply pins must be connected as follows:
• V
SS1
; V
DD1
= 1.8 to 3.6 V, down to 1.65 V at power down: external power supply for
I/Os and for the internal regulator. Provided externally through V
DD1
pins, the
corresponding ground pin is V
SS1
.
• V
SSA;
V
DDA
= 1.8 to 3.6 V, down to 1.65 V at power down: external power supplies for
analog peripherals (minimum voltage to be applied to V
DDA
is 1.8 V when the ADC1 is
used). V
DDA
and V
SSA
must be connected to V
DD1
and V
SS1
, respectively.
• V
SS2
; V
DD2
= 1.8 to 3.6 V, down to 1.65 V at power down: external power supplies for
I/Os. V
DD2
and V
SS2
must be connected to V
DD1
and V
SS1
, respectively.
• V
REF+
; V
REF-
(for ADC1): external reference voltage for ADC1. Must be provided
externally through V
REF+
and V
REF-
pin.
• V
REF+
(for DAC): external voltage reference for DAC must be provided externally
through V
REF+
.
3.3.2 Power supply supervisor
The device has an integrated ZEROPOWER power-on reset (POR)/power-down reset
(PDR), coupled with a brownout reset (BOR) circuitry. At power-on, BOR is always active,
and ensures proper operation starting from 1.8
V. After the 1.8 V BOR threshold is reached,
the option byte loading process starts, either to confirm or modify default thresholds, or to
disable BOR permanently (in which case, the V
DD
min value at power down is 1.65 V).
Five BOR thresholds are available through option bytes, starting from 1.8 V to 3 V. To
reduce the power consumption in Halt mode, it is possible to automatically switch off the
internal reference voltage (and consequently the BOR) in Halt mode. The device remains
under reset when V
DD
is below a specified threshold, V
POR/PDR
or V
BOR
, without the need
for any external reset circuit.
The device features an embedded programmable voltage detector (PVD) that monitors the
V
DD
/V
DDA
power supply and compares it to the V
PVD
threshold. This PVD offers 7 different
levels between 1.85
V and 3.05 V, chosen by software, with a step around 200 mV. An
interrupt can be generated when V
DD
/V
DDA
drops below the V
PVD
threshold and/or when
V
DD
/V
DDA
is higher than the V
PVD
threshold. The interrupt service routine can then generate
a warning message and/or put the MCU into a safe state. The PVD is enabled by software.
3.3.3 Voltage regulator
The medium-density STM8L151x4/6 and STM8L152x4/6 embeds an internal voltage
regulator for generating the 1.8 V power supply for the core and peripherals.
This regulator has two different modes:
• Main voltage regulator mode (MVR) for Run, Wait for interrupt (WFI) and Wait for event
(WFE) modes.
• Low power voltage regulator mode (LPVR) for Halt, Active-halt, Low power run and
Low power wait modes.
When entering Halt or Active-halt modes, the system automatically switches from the MVR
to the LPVR in order to reduce current consumption.
