    I'm not familiar with this bridge yet, so we need to be careful. The first
    point you need to check is the hardware requirements regarding power supply
    sequencing. For instance could it damage the chip if the I/O supply is turned
    off while the I/O pins are externally driven ? Can the core supplies be turned
    off with the I/O supply on ? Then, based on the hardware limitations, you
    should pick the appropriate location for power handling.
