All power sources should be managed using the CM4_PWR_EN signal. Specifically, when CM4_PWR_EN is set to LOW, all power supplies, including those for the CM4 and Main power domain, should be deactivated.
Please refer to the provided power scheme for details on power control.
...
Refer to the power scheme illustrated below. All powers in the main power domain should be controlled by both CM4_PWR_EN and MAIN_PWR_EN signals. Specifically, all powers in the main power domain are only turned on when both CM4_PWR_EN and MAIN_PWR_EN are set to HIGH.
It's important to note that during cold booting, CM4_PWR_EN goest to HIGH to initiate the booting process. Therefore, the default state ofMAIN_PWR_EN (when the GPIO is not yet programmed) should be HIGH to allow the CA55 to start booting.
...
Typically, MAIN_PWR_EN is controlled by a GPIO in the CM4 domain. CM4 can directly set the power of the main power domain to either on or off.

The SP7350 supports SPI-NAND flash for booting. To boot from an SPI-NAND flash, set the bootstrap pins IV_MX[6:2] to [1 1 1 0 1]. The SP7350 supports either 2k-sector with 1 or 2 planes or 4k-sector with 1 plane. When using a 1.8V flash chip, the maximum clock frequency is 153 MHz. It's advisable to use a 1.8V flash chip for optimal high-speed operation. It's advisable to use a 1.8V flash chip for optimal high-speed operation.
Special Note:
NAND flash memory in the market is categorized into SLC (Single-Level Cell) and MLC (Multi-Level Cell) types. MLC NAND has a higher likelihood of developing bad cells. It's important to note that the Linux ubifs (sorted block image file system) subsystem does not support MLC NAND. Therefore, if you plan to use NAND flash as the primary storage (boot) device, it is recommended to opt for SLC NAND flash.

The SP7350 supports booting from 8-bit NAND flash. To boot from an 8-bit NAND flash, set the bootstrap pins IV_MX[6:2] to [1 0 0 0 1]. The SP7350 is compatible with 2k-sector, 4k-sector, or 8k-sector NAND flash. For optimal high-speed performance, it's recommended to use a 1.8V VCCQ power supply.

17.2 MIPI-RX2 and MIPI-RX3
Note that MIPI-RX2 is not available for version A chips.
When CPIO is disabled, MIPI-RX2 and MIPI-RX3 are available for use. MIPI-RX2 supports four data and one clock lanes (4d1c) with 4 virtual channels if MIPI-RX3 is not enabled. However, if MIPI-RX3 is enabled, both MIPI-RX2 and RX3 support two data and one clock lanes (2d1c). Each data lane can transmit up to 1.5 Gbps. Please refer to the table for pin sharing between MIPI-RX2, MIPI-RX3, and CPIO.
