19-4541; Rev 1; 7/09 Quad-Channel, I2C-Margining IDACs with Three Channels of Power-Supply Tracking General Description The DS4426 contains four I2C-adjustable current DACs capable of sinking or sourcing current. External resistors set the full-scale range of each output. Each DAC output has 127 sink and 127 source steps that are programmed by the I2C interface. Power-supply tracking functionality is provided for three channels using dedicated control inputs. Once power-supply tracking is accomplished, the current outputs default to zero. Two address pins allow up to four DS4426 devices to exist on the same I2C bus.

Three of the current outputs (OUT[3:1]) also have power-supply tracking circuitry that allows additional current to be sourced during power-up. To calculate the output-current value (IOUT) based on the corresponding DAC value (see Table 2 for corresponding memory addresses), use the following equation: IOUT = DACValue(dec) x IFS 127 Adjustable Current DACs Each output (OUT[3:0]) has 127 sink and 127 source settings that are programmed through the I2C interface. The full-scale current ranges (and corresponding step sizes) of the outputs are determined by external resistors connected to the corresponding FS pins (see Figure 1). The formula to determine the external resistor values (RFS) for each output is given by: R FS = VRFS x 127 16 x IFS where IFS is the desired full-scale current value, VRFS is the RFS voltage (see the DC Electrical Characteristics table), and RFS is the external resistor value. On power-up, the DS4426 current DAC outputs are set to zero current. This is done to prevent the device from sinking or sourcing an incorrect current before the system host controller has a chance to modify its setting. Note, however, that if power-supply tracking is enabled (see the Power-Supply Tracking Circuit section), then the DS4426 can still source current at power-up. When used in adjustable power-supply applications (see Figure 8), the DS4426 does not affect the initial power-up voltage of the supply because it defaults to providing zero output current on power-up unless power-supply tracking is enabled. As it sources or sinks current into the feedback voltage node, it changes the amount of output voltage required by the regulator to reach its steady-state operating point. 6 _______________________________________________________________________________________ Quad-Channel, I2C-Margining IDACs with Three Channels of Power-Supply Tracking I2C CONTROL MSB LSB TRACKING OUT[3:1] ONLY SOURCE OR SINK MODE CURRENT DAC[3:0] 127 POSITIONS EACH FOR SOURCE AND SINK MODE Using the external resistors RFS[3:0] to set the outputcurrent range, the DS4426 provides some flexibility for adjusting the impedances of the feedback network or the range over which the power supply can be controlled or margined. As a source for biasing instrumentation or other circuits, the DS4426 provides a simple and inexpensive current source with an I2C interface for control. The adjustable, full-scale range allows the application to get the most out of its 7-bit sink or source resolution. DS4426 FS[3:0] RFS[3:0] OUT[3:0] Power-Supply Tracking Circuit By making use of the power-supply tracking circuitry, the DS4426 has the ability to source current on powerup. This current is additive with the current DAC source/sink currents and is determined by the value of the gain resistor, RG, and the supply voltage, VCC. This current is controlled by the voltages presented to the corresponding INP and INN pins, and the voltages presented to the corresponding threshold (THR) pins. VCC Figure 1. Current DAC Detail Maximum Source Current RG GAIN INP + GVI INN OUT SLAVE FEEDBACK NODE The maximum current the DS4426 can source at power-up using the power-supply tracking circuitry depends on the value of the supply voltage, VCC, and the gain resistor, RG, connected from the corresponding GAIN pin to VCC. The maximum current (IMAX) that can be sourced to the corresponding OUT pin can be estimated using the following equation: IMAX SHUTDOWN DAC ( VCC - VOUT ) RG Figure 2. Gain Stage I IMAX AT VCC = +5.0V The power-supply tracking circuit can be estimated with Figure 2. Inputs for Power-Supply Tracking: INP and INN Each pair of power-supply tracking inputs, INP and INN, determines if and how much of the IMAX current is sourced when the power-supply tracking circuit is enabled. When the difference between the voltage presented to INP (V INP ) and INN (V INN ) is more than approximately +0.3V, then the maximum source current, as determined by the value IMAX, is sourced into the OUT pin connection. When the difference between VINP and VINN is less than approximately -0.2V, then no current is sourced into the corresponding OUT pin. The change in current from no current to IMAX can be estimated by the power-supply tracking gain, GVI (see the Power-Supply Tracking Characteristics table). Figure 3 shows the typical current behavior of the power-supply tracking circuit with respect to the voltage difference seen at the INP and INN inputs. 7 GVI -0.2 +0.3 V (VINP - VINN) Figure 3.

Enabling Power-Supply Tracking Using the THR Input THR Inputs for Enabling Power-Supply Tracking Comparators are used to individually enable/disable power-supply tracking based on the voltage presented to the corresponding THR pin relative to a fixed internal reference (VREF/2 = +0.62V). Figure 4 shows a typical startup and shutdown plot based on the voltage presented to the THR pin. Tracking can be disabled by connecting the corresponding THR pin to a voltage greater than VREF/2. Below this threshold, the tracking circuit is active. Loop Bandwidth Consideration Power-supply tracking is used to override each slave DC-DC's feedback loop during power-up and powerdown. Power-supply tracking is capable of slewing at a much faster rate than most DC-DC converters. Care must be exercised when selecting the loop bandwidth of the master DC-DC, slave DC-DC, and power-supply tracking control loop such that oscillations and overshoot are minimized. While the slave DC-DC supplies are tracking the master DC-DC supply, there are three time constants of concern: 1) Master BW. The master DC-DC control loop bandwidth, power-up ramp rate, and power-down ramp rate. 2) Slave BW. The slave DC-DC supplies control loop bandwidths. 3) Tracking BW. The DS4426 tracking circuit bandwidth. To ensure stable operation and minimize peaking, the bandwidths should follow the following rule: Master BW and Slave BW < (Tracking BW/10) Power-Supply Tracking in DC-DC Power Applications The DS4426 provides several options for power-supply tracking control of DC-DC power supplies. In many cases, it is desirable to prevent certain DC-DC supplies from exceeding the voltage of other supplies. This is often the case with the voltages applied to a digital core and I/O. Each DS4426 supports one master with three slave DC-DCs. See Figure 5 for more information. 8 _______________________________________________________________________________________ Quad-Channel, I2C-Margining IDACs with Three Channels of Power-Supply Tracking DS4426 5.0V VCC 0.1F 10k I 2C 10k 10k SDA SCL A0 A1 VREF REF 1.24V x3 INP[3:1] 5.0V RB[3:1] RG[3:1] RA[3:1] GAIN[3:1] VREF/2 DS4426 INN[3:1] VOUT SLAVE DC-DC CONVERTER COMP THR[3:1] FB RE[3:1] RF[3:1] OUT[3:1] VOUT MASTER DC-DC CONVERTER I2C CONTROL INTERFACE FS0 OUT0 FS[3:1] RFS[3:1] RFS0 FB RE0 RF0 VCC 10k RTHR[3:1] RD[3:1] RC[3:1] Figure 5. Typical DC-DC Power-Supply Tracking Application Ratiometric Tracking The DS4426 can maintain a defined ratio between a slave voltage and the master voltage where: KSM = VSLAVE/VMASTER. In Figure 5, this ratio is given by the following: KSM = [RB[3:1]/(RA[3:1] + RB[3:1])]/[RD[3:1]/(RC[3:1] + RD[3:1])]. Nonratiometric tracking is the special case where KSM = 1. Power-Supply Tracking Loop Gain Stability Slave DC-DC output tracking is controlled by the DS4426 sourcing current into the slave DC-DC's feedback loop. This changes the stability of the loop during tracking. The amount of gain used can be adjusted by changing the ratio of R L /R G . If oscillations occur, increasing RG reduces gain and increases the system's phase margin. If the slave DC-DC has a compensation pin, the RC network connected to this pin can also be adjusted to improve phase margin. This pin is often labeled COMP or ITH. A larger compensation time constant (increased R and/or increased C) often increases the stability of the system during tracking; however, this also modifies the DC-DC's transient response. In order to prevent modification of the slave DC-DC's transient response after power-supply tracking is complete, RG should first be modified before adjusting the compensation network. The higher the gain, the less the gain error. Reducing the gain increases the gain error during tracking. See Figure 4 for more information. _______________________________________________________________________________________ 9 Quad-Channel, I2C-Margining IDACs with Three Channels of Power-Supply Tracking DS4426 Table 1.

Memory Addresses MEMORY ADDRESS (HEX) F8h F9h FAh FBh CURRENT SOURCE OUT0 OUT1 OUT2 OUT3 Inputs for Tracking in DC-DC Power Applications When enabling/disabling the power-supply tracking, a resistor-divider connected to the THR input sets the disable threshold (see VTHRESHOLD in Figure 4). The top of the resistor-divider must be connected to the master DC-DC voltage for correct operation. Below this threshold, the tracking circuit is active. Memory Organization The DS4426's current sources are controlled by writing to memory addresses listed in Table 2. The format of each of the output control registers is given by: BIT 7 (MSB) S BIT 6 D6 BIT 5 D5 BIT 4 D4 BIT 3 D3 BIT 2 D2 BIT 1 D1 BIT 0 (LSB) D0 Power-Supply Sequencing The DS4426 can be used to perform power-supply sequencing. This is a subset of power-supply tracking with modifications to the external resistor network. The basic concept is that the DS4426 sources maximum current into the slave power supply's feedback node until a voltage in the system has risen above a specific voltage level. By sourcing the maximum current into the feedback node, the power supply's output is held off. Maximum sourcing current is achieved with two steps: 1) Apply the maximum allowed input voltage across INP and INN. Connect INP to VCC - 1.4V using a voltage-divider to ground. Connect INN to ground. 2) Set the gain to the maximum allowed (RL/RG = 5). The slave power supply is allowed to turn on once the voltage on THR is greater than VREF/2. Use a resistordivider connected to the rising system voltage to scale the trip point to VREF/2. where: BIT NAME Sign Bit DESCRIPTION Determines if DAC sources or sinks current. For sink, S = 0. For source, S = 1. 7-bit data word controlling DAC output. Setting 0000000b outputs zero current regardless of the state of the sign bit. POWER-ON DEFAULT 0b S DX Data 0000000b I2C Slave Address The DS4426 responds to one of four I2C slave addresses determined by the state of the input on the two address inputs. The two input states are connected to VCC or connected to ground. For example: RFS0 = 80k and register 0xF8h is written to a value of 0xAAh. Use the following formula to calculate the output current: IFS = (1.0V/80k) x (127/16) = 99.22A The MSB of the output register is 1, so the output is sourcing the value corresponding to position 2Ah (42 decimal). The magnitude of the output current is equal to the following: 99.22A x (42/127) = 32.8125A 10 ______________________________________________________________________________________ Quad-Channel, I2C-Margining IDACs with Three Channels of Power-Supply Tracking I2C Serial Interface Description I2C Definitions The following terminology is commonly used to describe I2C data transfers: I 2 C Slave Address: The slave address of the DS4426 is determined by the state of the A0 and A1 pins (see Table 1). Master Device: The master device controls the slave devices on the bus. The master device generates SCL clock pulses and START and STOP conditions. Slave Devices: Slave devices send and receive data at the master's request. Bus Idle or Not Busy: Time between STOP and START conditions when both SDA and SCL are inactive and in their logic-high states. When the bus is idle it often initiates a low-power mode for slave devices. START Condition: A START condition is generated by the master to initiate a new data transfer with a slave. Transitioning SDA from high to low while SCL remains high generates a START condition. See Figure 3 for applicable timing. STOP Condition: A STOP condition is generated by the master to end a data transfer with a slave. Transitioning SDA from low to high while SCL remains high generates a STOP condition. See Figure 3 for applicable timing. Repeated START Condition: The master can use a repeated START condition at the end of one data transfer to indicate that it will immediately initiate a new data transfer following the current one. Repeated STARTs are commonly used during read operations to identify a specific memory address to begin a data transfer. A repeated START condition is issued identically to a normal START condition. See Figure 6 for applicable timing. Bit Write: Transitions of SDA must occur during the low state of SCL. The data on SDA must remain valid and unchanged during the entire high pulse of SCL, plus the setup-and-hold time requirements (Figure 6). Data is shifted into the device during the rising edge of the SCL. Bit Read: At the end of a write operation, the master must release the SDA bus line for the proper amount of setup time (Figure 6) before the next rising edge of SCL during a bit read. The device shifts out each bit of data on SDA at the falling edge of the previous SCL pulse, and the data bit is valid at the rising edge of the current SCL pulse. Remember that the master generates all SCL clock pulses, including when it is reading bits from the slave. Acknowledgement (ACK and NACK): An Acknowledgement (ACK) or Not Acknowledge (NACK) is always the ninth bit transmitted during a byte transfer. The device receiving data (the master during a read or the slave during a write operation) performs an ACK by transmitting a zero during the ninth bit. A device performs a NACK by transmitting a 1 during the ninth bit. Timing for the ACK and NACK is identical to all other bit writes (Figure 6). An ACK is the acknowledgment that the device is properly receiving data. A NACK is used to terminate a read sequence or as an indication that the device is not receiving data. Byte Write: A byte write consists of 8 bits of information transferred from the master to the slave (most significant bit first) plus a 1-bit acknowledgement from the slave to the master. The 8 bits transmitted by the master are done according to the bit-write definition, and the acknowledgement is read using the bit-read definition. Byte Read: A byte read is an 8-bit information transfer from the slave to the master plus a 1-bit ACK or NACK from the master to the slave. The 8 bits of information that are transferred (most significant bit first) from the slave to the master are read by the master using the bit-read definition, and the master transmits an ACK using the bit-write definition to receive additional data bytes. The master must NACK the last byte read to terminate communication so the slave returns control of SDA to the master. Slave Address Byte: Each slave on the I2C bus responds to a slave address byte sent immediately following a START condition. The slave address byte contains the slave address in the most significant 7 bits and the R/W bit in the least significant bit. The DS4426's slave address is determined by the state of the A0 and A1 pins (see Table 1). When the R/W bit is 0 (such as in 90h), the master is indicating it will write data to the slave. If R/W = 1 (91h in this case), the master is indicating it wants to read from the slave. If an incorrect slave address is written, the DS4426 assumes the master is communicating with another I2C device and ignores the communication until the next START condition is sent. Memory Address: During an I2C write operation, the master must transmit a memory address to identify the memory location where the slave is to store the data. The memory address is always the second byte transmitted during a write operation following the slave address byte. 11 DS4426 ______________________________________________________________________________________ Quad-Channel, I2C-Margining IDACs with Three Channels of Power-Supply Tracking DS4426 SDA tBUF tF tLOW SCL tHD:STA tSP tHIGH tHD:STA tR tHD:DAT STOP START tSU:DAT REPEATED START tSU:STA tSU:STO NOTE: TIMING IS REFERENCED TO VIL(MAX) AND VIH(MIN).

Figure 7. I2C Communication Examples I2C Communication Writing to a Slave: The master must generate a START condition, write the slave address byte (R/W = 0), write the memory address, write the byte of data, and generate a STOP condition. Remember that the master must read the slave's acknowledgement during all byte-write operations. Reading from a Slave: To read from the slave, the master generates a START condition, writes the slave address byte with R/W = 1, reads the data byte with a NACK to indicate the end of the transfer, and generates a STOP condition. 12 ______________________________________________________________________________________ Quad-Channel, I2C-Margining IDACs with Three Channels of Power-Supply Tracking Applications Information Example Calculations for an Adjustable Power Supply In this example, the circuit shown in Figure 8 is used to margin a +2.0V supply by 20%. The margined power supply has a DC-DC converter output voltage, VOUT, of +2.0V and a DC-DC converter feedback voltage, VFB, of +0.8V. To determine the relationship of R0A and R0B, start with the equation: R 0B VFB = x VOUT R 0 A + R 0B Substituting VFB = +0.8V and VOUT = +2.0V, the relationship between R0A and R0B is determined to be: R0A = 1.5 x R0B IOUT0 is chosen to be 100A (midrange source/sink current for the DS4426). Summing the currents into the feedback node, we have the following: IOUT0 = IR0B - IR0A where: IR0B = and IR0 A = VOUT - VFB R 0A VFB R 0B DS4426 To create a 20% margin in the supply voltage, the value of V OUT is set to +2.4V. With these values in place, R 0B is calculated to be 2.67k, and R 0A is VCC VOUT = 2.0V* 4.7k 4.7k SDA SCL VCC DC-DC CONVERTER DS4426 GND OUT0 OUT IR0A FB IR0B R0B = 2.67k R0A = 4k VFB = 0.8V* FS0 IOUT0 RFS0 = 80k *VOUT AND VFB VALUES ARE DETERMINED BY THE DC-DC CONVERTER AND SHOULD NOT BE CONFUSED WITH VOUT AND VREF OF THE DS4426.

The current DAC in this configuration allows the output voltage to be moved linearly from +1.6V to +2.4V using 127 settings. This corresponds to a resolution of 6.3mV/step. VCC Decoupling To achieve the best results when using the DS4426, decouple the power supply with a 0.01F (or 0.1F) capacitor. Use a high-quality, ceramic, surface-mount capacitor if possible. Surface-mount components minimize lead inductance, which improves performance. Ceramic capacitors tend to have adequate high-frequency response for decoupling applications.
