System features introduction
In this chapter, an introduction to the main STA2064 system features is given. These will be
explained in detail later in this document.
Power region partition
STA2064 is a device targeted to wide range of applications, starting from handheld battery
powered devices thanks to an optimzed power management but also addressing in dash
automotive power requirements thanks to its flexibile multivoltage IO.
Three main power regions are identified:
●
●
●
Frequency region partition
STA2064 is designed so that there are two PLLs. PLL1 generates clock frequencies for the
ARM core and the internal buses, while the PLL2 generates clock frequencies for each
peripheral kernel and also for each peripheral interface. This means that each peripheral
receives the clock derived from the PLL1 at its internal interface, then it works with the clock
derived from the PLL2. Despite the use of two PLLs, a single system clock input or a single
external crystal is needed (in addition to the RTC clock (or crystal)).

groups and each of them can be powered at different, independent voltages. Some
groups may have specific constraint in terms of power voltage range in order to meet
specific electrical characteristic compliant to some standards; some of these groups
are, for example, in the DDR interface and the 1.1 embedded USB transceiver. There is
also a group of IOs called V
(also in the lowest power consumption state of STA2064) in order to make the wake-up
possible. The other five regions (called also V
