RT8811A

Dual-Phase COT Buck PWM Controller with Dynamic Voltage Control

General Description

The RT8811A is a dual-phase synchronous Buck PWM controller which is optimized for high performance graphic microprocessor and computer applications. The IC integrates a Constant-On-Time (COT) PWM controller, two MOSFET drivers with internal bootstrap diodes, as well as channel current balance and protection functions including Over-Voltage Protection (OVP), Under-Voltage Protection (UVP), current limit and thermal shutdown into the WQFN-24L 4x4 package.

The RT8811A adopts RDS(ON) current sensing technique. Current limit is accomplished through continuous inductor- current-sense, while RDS(ON) current sensing is used for accurate channel current balance. Using the method of current sampling utilizes the best advantages of each technique.

The RT8811A features external reference input and PWMVID dynamic output voltage control, in which the feedback voltage is regulated and tracks external input reference voltage. Other features include adjustable switching frequency, dynamic phase number control, internal/external soft-start, power good indicator, and enable functions.

RT8811A

Operation

The RT8811Aintegrates a Constant-On-Time (COT) PWM controller, the controller provides the PWM signal which relies on the output ripple voltage comparing with internal reference voltage. Referring to the function block diagram of TONGenx, the synchronous UGATE driver is turned on at the beginning of each cycle. After the internal one-shot timer expires, the UGATE driver will be turned off. The pulse width of this one-shot is determined by the converter's input voltage and the output voltage to keep the frequency fairly constant over the input voltage and output voltage range. Another one-shot sets a minimum off-time.

The RT8811A also features a PWM-VID dynamic voltage control circuit driven by the pulse width modulation method. This circuit reduces the device pin count and enables a wide dynamic voltage range.

Current Balance

The RT8811A implements the internal current balance mechanism in the current loop. The RT8811A senses per phase current and compares it with the average current. If the sensed current of any particular phase is higher than average current, the on-time of this phase will be adjusted to be shorter.

PGOOD

The power good output is an open-drain architecture.

When the soft-start is finished, the PGOOD open-drain output will be high impedance.

Soft-Start (SS)

For internal soft-start function, an internal current source charges an internal capacitor to build the soft-start ramp voltage. The output voltage will track the internal ramp voltage during soft-start interval.

For external soft-start function, an additional capacitor connected from SS to GND will be charged by a current source and determines the soft-start time.

Current Limit

The current limit circuit employs a unique “valley” current sensing algorithm. If the magnitude of the current sense signal at PHASE is above the current limit threshold, the PWM is not allowed to initiate a new cycle. Thus, the current to the load exceeds the average output inductor current, the output voltage falls and eventually crosses the under-voltage protection threshold, inducing IC shutdown.

Over-Voltage Protection (OVP)

The output voltage can be continuously monitored for overvoltage protection. When the output voltage exceeds its set voltage threshold (If VREFIN 1.33V, OV = 2V, or VREFIN > 1.33V, OV = 1.5 x VREFIN), UGATE goes low and LGATE is forced high. The controller is latched until VCC is resupplied and exceeds the POR rising threshold voltage.

Under-Voltage Protection (UVP)

The output voltage is continuously monitored for undervoltage protection. When the output voltage is less than 40% of its set voltage, under-voltage protection is triggered and then both UGATE and LGATE gate drivers are forced low. The controller is latched until VCC is re-supplied and exceeds the POR rising threshold voltage.

These are stress ratings only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions may affect device reliability.

Note 2. θJA is measured at TA = 25°C on a high effective thermal conductivity four-layer test board per JEDEC 51-7. θJC is measured at the exposed pad of the package.

Note 3. Devices are ESD sensitive. Handling precaution is recommended.

Note 4. The device is not guaranteed to function outside its operating conditions.

Note 5. Not production tested. Test condition is VIN = 8V, VOUT = 1V, IOUT = 20A using application circuit.
