40.2.3 Detailed signal descriptions
40.2.3.1 VDDR
VDDR is the 3.3 V to 5 V supply for the voltage regulators and LVD blocks. See the MPC5606S 
Microcontroller Data Sheet for details of recommended decoupling capacitance on this pin.
40.2.3.2 VRC
VRC is the 1.2 V regulator output that drives the base of the external NPN ballast transistor.
