Table 2–42

lists the VCCRT_GXB and VCCA_GXB voltage rails and their voltage level

depending on the switch position.

If the board is powered off and powered on again with SW2 in the open position, the
voltages for VCCRT_GXB and VCCA_GXB voltage rails read 0.90 V and 2.5 V respectively
and will not come up to the proper levels. This is due to the LTC2978 device trying to
adjust these rails to their programed values, which it cannot due to the switch
position of SW2. The work around to this issue is to set switch SW2 in the close
position at power up.
