Thanks for your response. I see your point about not using SYS_RESETn signal... it can be driven low by the processor. I was considering that one because it's a 3.3V logic signal. PGOOD is a 1.8V signal and the EN pin of U4 has a minimum of 2V to consider it high. [image: Inline image 1] I will

Matthijs, Did you try any change in the EN pin of U4 (enable signal of 3V3B)? I'm about to try SYS_RESETn (PMIC_PGOOD after U16), but I'm concerned about the 20ms turn on delay (plus 10ms due to the RC). The other option is to go back to use 3V3AUX, and add a 1k load resistor to reduce the
