1.0 V Power for PLL Analog Circuits
This pin supplies power to the internal PLL. As
such it is sensitive to noise, and should be filtered
from the main 1.0V supply (VDD_CORE) to
reduce noise. See the RDK schematic for an
example filter circuit.

(QFN: 3 Pins, TQFP: 4 pins)
If stand-by power is implemented, this power
supply should be regulated from Vaux (3.3V).
Otherwise, connect these pins to the VDD_CORE
supply.
Ground Pins (20 Pins and Center Pad)
Connect all Ground pins below directly to Ground
(plane).
