Voltage Regulator
The SAM D21 voltage regulator has two different modes:
z
Normal mode: To be used when the CPU and peripherals are running
z
Low Power (LP) mode: To be used when the regulator draws small static current. It can be used in standby mode
7.2.3
Typical Powering Schematics
The SAM D21 uses a single supply from 1.62V to 3.63V.
The following figure shows the recommended power supply connection.

Power-Up Sequence
7.2.4.1  Minimum Rise Rate
The integrated power-on reset (POR) circuitry monitoring the VDDANA power supply requires a minimum rise rate. Refer 
to the 
7.2.4.2  Maximum Rise Rate
The rise rate of the power supply must not exceed the values described in Electrical Characteristics. Refer to the
