DESCRIPTION
The device is a power supply controller specifically designed to provide a high performance DC/DC conversion for high current microprocessors. A precise 5-bit
digital to analog converter (DAC) allows adjusting the
output voltage from 1.30V to 2.05V with 50mV binary
steps and from 2.1 0V to 3.50V with 100 mV binary steps.
The high precision internal r eference ass ures the selected output voltage to be within ±1%. The high peak
current gate drive affords to have fast switching to the
external power mos providing low switching losses.
The device assures a fast protection against load
overcurrent and load overvoltage. An ex ternal SCR is
triggered to crowbar the input supply in case of hard
over-voltage. An internal crowbar is also provided
turning on the low side mosfet as long as the overvoltage is detected. In case of ove r-current detection,
the soft start capacitor is discharged and the system
works in HICCUP mode.

The device is an i ntegrated circuit r ealized in BCD technol ogy. It provides c omplete control logic and protections
for a high performance step-down DC-DC converter optimized for microprocessor power supply. It is designed
to drive N-Channel Mosfets in a synchronous-rectified buck topology. The device works properly with Vcc ranging from 5V to 12V and regulates the output voltage starting from a 1.26V power stage s upply voltage (Vin). The
output voltage of the converter can be precisely regulated, programming the VID pins, from 1.100V to 1.850V
with 25mV binary steps, with a maximum tolerance of ±1% over temperature and line voltage variations. The
device provides voltage-mode control with fast transient response. It includes a 200kHz free-running oscillator
that is adjustable from 50kHz to 1MHz.
The error amplifi er features a 15MHz gain-bandwid th product and 10V /
µ
s slew rate which permits high converter bandwidth for fast transient performanc e. The resul ting PWM duty cyc le ranges from 0% to 100%. The devi ce
protects against over-current conditions entering in HICCUP mode. The device monitors the current by using
the r
of the upper MOSFET which eliminates the need for a current sensing resistor.

Oscillator
The switching frequency is internally fixed to 200kHz. The internal oscillator generates the triangular waveform
for the PWM charging and discharging with a constant c urrent an internal capacit or. The current deliver ed to the
oscillator is ty pically 50
µ
A (Fsw=200KHz) and may be varied using an external resistor (RT) connected between
RT pin and GND or VCC. Since the RT pin is maintained at fixed voltage (typ. 1.235V), the frequency is varied
proportionally to the current sunk (forced) from (into) the pin.
In particular connecting it to GND the frequency is increased (current is sunk from the pin), according to the
following relationship:

Digital to Analog Converter
The built-in digital to analog converter allows the adjustment of the output voltage from 1.30V to 2.05V with
50mV binary steps and from 2.10V to 3.50V with 100mV binary steps as shown in the previous table 1. The
internal reference is trimmed to ensure the precision of 1%.
The internal reference voltage for the regulation is programmed by the voltage identification (VID) pins. These
are TTL compatible inputs of an internal DAC that is realized by means of a series of resistors providing a partition of the internal voltage reference. The VID code drives a multiplexer that selects a voltage on a precise
point of the divider. The DAC output is delivered to an amplifier obtaining the V
set-point of the error amplifier). Internal pull-ups are provided (realized with a 5
voltage reference (i.e. the
PROG
µ
A current generator); in this
way, to program a logic "1" it is enough to leave the pin floating, while to program a logic "0" it is enough to short
the pin to GND.
The voltage identification (VID) pin configuration also sets the power-good thresholds (PGOOD) and the overvoltage protection (OVP) thresholds.
The VID code "11111" disable the device (as a short on the SS pin) and no output voltage is regulated.
Soft Start and Inhibit
At start-up a ramp is generated charging the external capacitor CSS by means of a 10µA constant current, as
shown in figure 1.
When the voltage across the soft start capacitor (V
6/17
) reaches 0.5V the lower power MOS is turned on to dis-
