DESCRIPTION
The device is a power supply controller specifically
designed to provide a high performance DC/DC conversion for high cur rent m icr oprocess ors. A precis e 5
bit digital to analog converter (DAC) allows to adjust
the output voltage from 1.050 to 1.825 with 25mV 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 over-voltage. An external SCR
is triggered to crowbar the input supply in case of
hard overvoltage. An internal crowbar is also provided turning on the low side mosf et as long as the overvoltage is detected. In case of ove r-current detection,
the soft start capacitor is discharged an 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 synch ronou s-rectified buc k topology . The devic e works proper ly with V cc 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 1.050V to 1.825V
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 amplifier features a 15MHz gain-bandwidth product and 10V/
ms slew rate which permits high converter bandwidth for fast transient performance. The resulting PWM duty
cycle ranges from 0% to 100%. The device protects against over -curr ent condi tions entering in H ICCUP mode.
The device moni tors the curr ent by us ing the r
of the upper MOSFET which eliminates the need for a cur-
DS(ON)
rent sensing resistor.
The device is available in SO20 package.
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 tipically 50
µ
A (Fsw=200KHz) and may be v ari ed usi ng an external r esistor ( 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 sinked (forced) from (into) the pin.
In particular connecting it to GND the frequency is increased (current is sinked 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 1.050V to 1.825V with
25mV 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 D AC that is realised by means of a series of resistors rpoviding a partition of the internal voltage reference. The VID code drives a multiplexer that selects a voltage on a precis e
point of the divider. The D AC output i s del ivered to an amplifier obtaining the VPROG voltage referenc e ( i.e. the
set-point of the error amplifier). Internal pull-ups are provided (realized with a 5
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.
Soft Start and Inhibit

shown in figure 2.
