Actually, now that you're doing a re-design for the SSC -> EBI change,
it might be an idea to make the oscillator power supply switchable and
controlled by a GPIO from the SAM3U or FPGA. At that point, there's no
problem booting at < 100mA.
I wouldn't expect a small low-Rds_on mosefet switch to cause any problem
for the oscillator, especially since it's constant current/power...
Regards,
Harald
