19-3886; rev 1; 8/06 general description the max8809a/max8810a synchronous, 2-/3-/4- phase, step-down, current-mode controllers with inte- grated dual-phase mosfet drivers provide flexible solutions that fully comply with intel vrd11/vrd10 and amd k8 rev f cpu core supplies. the flexible design supplies load currents up to 150a for low-volt- age cpu core power requirements. a tri-state sel input is available to configure the vid logic for either the intel vrd11/vrd10 or amd k8 rev f applications. an enable input (en) is available to dis- able the ic. true-differential remote output-voltage sensing enables precise regulation at the load by elimi- nating the effects of trace impedance in the output and return paths. a high-accuracy dac combined with pre- cision current-sense amplifiers and droop control enable the max8809a/max8810a to meet the most stringent tolerance requirements of new-generation high-current cpus. these ics use either integral or volt- age-positioning feedback control to achieve high out- put-voltage accuracy. the comp input allows for either positive or negative voltage offsets from the vid code voltage. a power- good signal (vrready) is provided for startup sequencing and fault annunciation. the ss/ovp pin enables the programming of the soft-start period, and provides an indication of an overvoltage condition. a soft-stop feature prevents negative voltage spikes on the output at turn-off, eliminating the need for an exter- nal schottky clamp diode. the max8809a/max8810a incorporate a proprietary ?apid active average?current-mode control scheme for fast and accurate transient-response performance, as well as precise load current sharing. either the inductor dcr or a resistive current-sensing element is used for current sensing. when used with dcr sensing, rapid active current averaging (ra 2 ) eliminates the tolerance effects of the inductance and associated current-sens- ing components, providing superior phase current matching, accurate current limit, and precise load-line. the max8809a operates as a single-chip, 2-phase solution with integrated drivers. it also provides a 3rd- phase pwm output and easily supports 3-phase design by adding the max8552 high-performance driver. the max8810a enables up to 4-phase designs by adding the max8523 high-performance dual driver for a com- pact 2-chip solution. features ? vrd11/vrd10 and k8 rev f compliant ? ?.35% initial output voltage accuracy ? dual integrated drivers with integrated bootstrap diodes ? up to 26v input voltage ? adaptive shoot-through protection ? soft-start, soft-stop, vrready output ? fast load transient response ? individual phase, fully temperature- compensated cycle-by-cycle average current limit ? current foldback at short circuit ? voltage positioning or integral feedback ? differential remote voltage sensing ? programmable positive and negative offset voltages ? 150khz to 1.2mhz switching frequency per phase ? ntc-based, temperature-independent load line ? precise phase current sharing ? programmable thermal-monitoring output (vrhot) ? 6a peak mosfet drivers ? 0.3 /0.85 low-side, 0.8 /1.1 high-side drivers (typ) ? 40-pin and 48-pin thin qfn packages applications desktop pcs servers, workstations desknote and lcd pcs voltage-regulator modules max8809a/max8810a vrd11/vrd10, k8 rev f 2/3/4-phase pwm controllers with integrated dual mosfet drivers ________________________________________________________________ maxim integrated products 1 for pricing delivery, and ordering information please contact maxim/dallas direct! at 1-888-629-4642, or visit maxim? website at www.maxim-ic.com. ordering information + denotes lead-free package. note: all parts are specified in the -40 c to +85? extended temperature range. evaluation kit available part pin- package pkg code function max8809a etl+ 40 thin qfn 5mm x 5mm t4055-1 2-/3-phase max8810a etm+ 48 thin qfn 6mm x 6mm t4866-1 2-/3-/4-phase pin configurations appear at end of data sheet. intel is a registered trademark of intel corp.

2-/3-/4- phase, step-down, current-mode controllers with inte- grated dual-phase mosfet drivers provide flexible solutions that fully comply with intel vrd11/vrd10 and amd k8 rev f cpu core supplies. the flexible design supplies load currents of up to 150a for low-voltage cpu core power supplies. the max8809a is suitable for 2- or 3-phase core sup- ply applications. with an integrated dual-mosfet dri- ver, the max8809a offers a single-chip ic solution for dual-phase core supplies. together with the max8552, a high-performance single-phase mosfet driver, the max8809a also supports 3-phase core supplies. similarly, the max8810a features a single ic solution for dual-phase core supplies. it also features two-ic solutions for 3- or 4-phase core supplies by adding a single mosfet driver (max8552) or a dual-mosfet driver (max8523). both the max8809a and max8810a fully comply with intel vrd11, extended vrd10, and the amd k8 rev f vid codes. the sel input allows the user to select the architecture specifications. clock frequency (osc) an external resistor, r osc , from osc to gnd sets the internal clock frequency of the max8809a/max8810a. a 1% resistor is recommended to maintain good fre- quency accuracy. the internal clock frequency sets the per-phase switching frequency. the selection of switch- ing frequency per phase is influenced by factors such as the switching speed of the mosfets, the inductor? core material, different types of input and output capac- itors, and the available board space. once the per- phase switching frequency is selected, the internal clock frequency is determined using the procedure in the setting the switching frequency section. max8809a/max8810a ______________________________________________________________________________________ 19 vrd11/vrd10, k8 rev f 2/3/4-phase pwm controllers with integrated dual mosfet drivers voltage reference (ref) a precision 2v reference is provided by the max8809a/ max8810a at the ref output. ref is capable of sinking and sourcing up to 500? for external loads. connect a 0.1? to 1? ceramic capacitor from ref to gnd. internal refok circuitry monitors the reference voltage. the reference voltage must be above the refok thresh- old of 1.84v to activate the controller. the controller is disabled if the reference voltage falls below 1.74v. output current sensing (cs_+, cs_-) the output current of each phase is sensed differentially. a low-offset-voltage, differential-current amplifier (30v/v) at each phase allows low-resistance current- sense resistors to be used to minimize power dissipa- tion. sensing the current at the output of each phase offers advantages including less noise sensitivity, more accurate current sharing between phases, and the flex- ibility of using either a current-sense resistor or the dc resistance of the output inductor. using the dc resistance, r dc , of the output inductor (figure 3) allows higher efficiency. in this configuration, the initial tolerance and temperature coefficient of r dc must be accounted for in the output-voltage droop-error budget. the temperature coefficient can be compensat- ed; see the load-line independent inductor dc resistance temperature compensation section for more details. an rc-filtering network is needed to extract the current information from the output inductor. the time constant of the rc network is calculated as follows: where l is the inductance of the output inductor. for 20a or higher current-per-phase applications, the dc resistance of commercially available inductors is approximately 1m . to minimize current-sense error due to the bias current at the current-sense inputs, choose r1 less than 2k . determine the value for c1 as: select a 1% resistor for r1. for mainstream pcs 20% tolerance is recommended for c1, and for performance pcs 10% tolerance should be considered. if using an inductor with r dc greater than 1m , a resistor (r2) may be necessary to divide down the voltage across cs_+ and cs_-. the maximum average signal present at the input of the current-sense amplifier should not exceed 85mv. when a current-sense resistor is used for more accu- rate current sharing and load-line, a similar rc-filtering circuit is recommended to cancel the equivalent series inductance of the current-sense resistor, as shown in figure 4. again, select r2 less than 2k , and c2 is determined by the following equation: where esl is the equivalent series inductance of the current-sense resistor and r s is the value of the cur- rent-sense resistor. for example, a 1m , 2025 pack- age sense resistor has an esl of 1.6nh. if using an r s greater than 1m , a resistor (r2) may be necessary to divide down the voltage across cs_+ and cs_-. the maximum average signal present at the input of the current-sense amplifier should not exceed 85mv. output current limit and short-circuit protection (ilim) the max8809a/max8810a feature a precise average output current limit on a cycle-by-cycle basis using maxim? proprietary ra 2 technology. the current-limit scheme is insensitive to input-voltage variation, the inductor tolerance, and the tolerance of the current- sense capacitor, permitting the use of low-cost compo- nents to reduce total bom cost. furthermore, the current limit is fully temperature compensated resulting c esl rr s 2 2 = () c l rr dc 1 1 = () rc l r

current limit over the entire opera- tional temperature range. this eliminates the need to oversize mosfets and inductors to compensate for thermal effects. connecting ilim to v cc programs the default current-limit threshold. to select a different cur- rent-limit threshold, connect a resistor-divider from ref to gnd with ilim connected to the center tap. the volt- age at ilim is proportional to the current-limit threshold. see the setting the current-limit section for more details. the current-limit circuitry terminates the dh_ on-time immediately when the current-sense voltage (v cs_+ - v cs_- ) exceeds the current-limit threshold, allowing the output inductor current to ramp down. at the next switching cycle, the pwm pulse is skipped if the output inductor current is still above the current-limit threshold. otherwise, the new cycle initiates as normal. the max8809a/max8810a offer foldback-current pro- tection under soft-start and overload conditions. this feature allows the vrm to safely operate under short- circuit conditions and to automatically recover once the short-circuit condition is removed. if the output voltage falls below the vrready threshold during an overcur- rent event, the foldback current-limit circuitry sets the current-limit threshold to half the user-selected value. output differential sensing (rs+, rs-) the max8809a/max8810a feature differential output- voltage sensing to achieve the highest possible output accuracy. this allows the controllers to sense the actu- al voltage at the load, so the controller can compensate for losses in the power output and ground lines. traces from the load point back to rs+ and rs- should be routed close to each other and as far away as possible from noise sources (such as inductors and high di/dt traces). use a ground plane to shield the remote-sense traces from noise sources. to filter out common-mode noise, rc filtering is recommended for these inputs as shown in figure 5. for vrd applications, a 100 resis- tor with a 1nf capacitor should be used. for vrm applications, additional 50 resistors should be con- nected from these inputs to the local outputs of the converter before the vrm connector. this avoids excessive voltage at the cpu in case the remote-sense connections get disconnected. programming the output-voltage droop both the max8809a and max8810a employ peak-cur- rent-mode control with finite gain to actively set the out- put-voltage droop. figure 6 shows the simplified control block diagram. the relationship between the output inductor current in an n-phase dc-dc converter and the output voltage of the voltage-error amplifier is: where g ca (30v/v typ) is the gain of the differential cur- rent amplifier and n is the number of

integrated dual mosfet drivers load-line independent inductor dc resistance temperature compensation changes in inductor resistance due to temperature cause a change in the output-droop characteristic. this is compensated by changing the gain of the current- sense amplifier as a function of temperature. in doing so, the voltage at comp is independent of temperature, resulting in a temperature-independent load-line setting. additionally, the output short-circuit protection is also temperature independent because current limit is imple- mented by clamping the voltage at comp. this technol- ogy uses an ntc thermistor solely for temperature compensation, freeing it from being one of the compo- nents that determines the output load-line. therefore, only one ntc thermistor is needed to enable any output load-line. the same ntc thermistor is used for tempera- ture sense for the vrhot output. the max8809a/ max8810a temperature-compensation scheme is opti- mized for use with a panasonic ertj1vr103 10k ntc thermistor. other thermistors may be used. contact your local maxim representative for more details. loop compensation during a load transient, the output voltage instantly changes due to the esr of the output capacitors by an amount equal to their esr times the change in load cur- rent ( v out = r esr x i load ). the output voltage then deviates further based on the speed at which the loop compensates for the load transient. the voltage-posi- tioning method allows better utilization of the output reg- ulation window, resulting in less required output capacitors. the ra 2 architecture adjusts the output cur- rent based on the instantaneous output voltage, result- ing in fast voltage positioning. the voltage-error amplifier consists of a high-bandwidth, high-accuracy transconductance amplifier ( g mv in figure 7 ) . the nega- tive input of the transconductance amplifier is connected to the output of the remote-voltage differential amplifier, and the positive input is connected to the output of an internal dac controlled by the vid inputs. the dc gain of the transconductance amplifier is set to a finite value to achieve fast output-voltage positioning by connecting an rc circuit (r comp and c comp ) from comp to gnd. see the loop-compensation design section for details on selecting the required components. vr ready output (vrready) vrready is an open-drain output that turns high impedance when the output voltage reaches regula- tion. vrready goes low if v out is less than (v dac - 225mv) or greater than (v dac + 175mv), signaling an out-of-regulation fault. vrready is held low in shut- down, if v cc is less than the uvlo threshold, or during soft-start. for logic-level output voltages, connect an external pullup resistor between vrready and the logic power supply. a 100k resistor works well in most applications. dynamic vid change the max8809a/max8810a provide the ability for the cpu to dynamically change the vid inputs while the controller is operating (on-the-fly or otf). the output voltage changes in 6.25mv steps (intel) or 12.5mv/25mv steps (amd) when a vid change is detected. the controller provides a 400ns logic-skew window to prevent false code changes. the controller accepts both step-by-step changes of vid inputs or all-at-once vid input changes. for all-at-once vid input changes, the output-voltage slew rate is the same, 1 lsb per step and 2? duration. vrready is blanked during dynamic vid changes. multiphase operation selection the max8809a operates in either a 2- or 3-phase config- uration. connect pwm3 to v cc for 2-phase operation. the max8810a operates in 2-, 3- or 4-phase configura- tion. connect pwm4 to v cc for 3-phase operation. connect pwm4 and pwm3 to v cc for 2-phase operation. all active pwm outputs are held low during shutdown. uvlo and output enable when the ic supply voltage (v cc ) is less than the uvlo threshold (4.25v typ), all active pwm outputs are internally pulled low and most internal circuitry is shut down to reduce the quiescent current. when en is released and v cc > uvlo, the internal 100k resistor pulls en to v cc and soft-start is initiated (after a typical 2.2ms delay). r os r ll ref comp r os r ll buf comp max8810a max8809a figure 8. programming the output offset voltage max8809a/max8810a

voltage (v vl_ ) is less than its uvlo threshold (3.55v typ), dh_ and dl_ are held low. if v vl_ is above the uvlo threshold and while en is low, dl_ is driven high and dh_ is held low. this prevents the output of the converter from rising before a valid en high signal is present. soft-start the max8809a/max8810a soft-start with 6.25mv steps, regardless of processor architecture. connect a resistor between ss/ovp and gnd to program the soft- start time. when the device is enabled, ss/ovp is dri- ven to 2v and the current drawn by the set resistor is measured. this current sets the internal delay time between the dac voltage steps. select a resistor between 12k and 90.9k for a corresponding soft- start time of 500? to 6.5ms. for intel designs, the resistor value is calculated as: where t ss is the desired soft-start time (in ms) to the 1.1v v boot level. figure 9 shows the intel startup sequence, and table 1 shows the values of the time delays. for amd applications, the controllers soft-start up to the voltage set by the vid inputs. the soft-start time is set by the following equation: where v dac is the output voltage set by the vid inputs. figure 10 shows the amd startup sequence, and table 2 shows the values of the time delays. soft-stop when en goes low, the output of the converter ramps down to 0v in 6.25mv dac steps in the time set by the ss/ovp input.

when the output voltage exceeds the regulation voltage by 200mv (intel) or exceeds 1.8v (amd), all active pwm outputs are pulled low and the controller is latched off. ss/ovp is internally pulled to v cc to signal an overvolt- age fault. all dh_ outputs are held low and all dl_ out- puts are held high to discharge the output. the latch condition can only be cleared by cycling the input volt- age (v cc ). integrated dual-mosfet driver the max8809a/max8810a contain a dual-phase gate driver capable of driving 3000pf capacitive loads with only 32ns propagation delay and 11ns typical rise and fall times, allowing operation up to 1.2mhz per phase. adaptive dead time controls low-side mosfet turn-on and high-side mosfet turn-on. this maximizes converter efficiency, while allowing operation with a variety of mosfets. a uvlo circuit ensures proper power-on sequencing. adaptive shoot-through protection adaptive shoot-through protection is incorporated for the switching transition after the high-side mosfet is turned off and before the low-side mosfet is turned on. the low-side driver is turned on only when the lx_ voltage falls below 2.5v typical. in addition, a fixed 35ns delay time between the low-side mosfet turn-off and high-side mosfet turn-on adds further protection from ?hoot-through.?the 35ns time begins after dl_ has fallen through 1.5v typical. mosfet driver uvlo when v

driver the gate-drive voltage for the high-side mosfet dri- vers is generated by a flying-capacitor boost circuit. the capacitor between bst_ and lx_ is charged from the vl_ supply through an internal switch while the low- side mosfet is on. when the low-side mosfet is switched off, the stored voltage on the capacitor is stacked above lx_ to provide the necessary turn-on voltage for the high-side mosfet(s). no external boost diode is needed. see the boost capacitor selection section for details on selecting the correct capacitor. thermal protection the max8809a/max8810a feature a thermal-fault-pro- tection circuit. when the junction temperature rises above +160 c typical, an internal thermal sensor acti- vates the shutdown circuit to hold all mosfet drivers and active pwm outputs low to disable switching. the thermal sensor reactivates the controller after the junc- tion temperature cools by 25 c typical. temperature monitoring (vrtset, vrhot) the max8809a/max8810a contain temperature-moni- toring circuitry that allows the user to program a tem- perature trip point between +60 c and +125 c, and monitor an active-high, open-drain vrhot output. connect a resistor from vrtset to gnd to set the tem- perature-monitoring threshold. the resistor is calculat- ed as follows: where k t is a temperature scale factor specifically for the panasonic ertj1vr103 ntc thermistor. table 3 provides values of k t and the closest standard 1% r vrtset values needed to program the vrhot thresh- old over a +60 c to +125 c range. r vrtset must be greater than 20k . contact your local maxim represen- tative for information on using other thermistors. architecture selection and timing amd k8 rev f the amd k8 rev f processor uses a 6-bit vid code that specifies a 0.375v to 1.55v output voltage range (see table 4). leave sel unconnected to select the amd k8 rev f architecture. the startup sequencing and timing specifications are shown in figure 10. note that the vid input defines the amd processor boot level, and there is no internal default. the boot level is not latched; therefore, if the codes change during soft- start, the boot level also changes. extended intel vrd10 the intel vrd10 processor uses a 7-bit vid code that specifies a 0.83125v to 1.6v output voltage range (see table 5). connect sel to gnd to select the vrd10 architecture. the startup sequencing and timing speci- fications are shown in figure 9. the intel boot level is internally set to 1.1v; therefore, the vid inputs are ignored during soft-start. in compliance with the intel vrd specifications, there is a typical 2.2ms delay after en is asserted before soft-start begins. this delay is not included in the soft-start time set by ss/ovp. intel vrd11 the intel vrd11 processor uses an 8-bit vid code that specifies a 0.3125v to 1.6v output voltage range (see table 6). connect sel to v cc to select the vrd11 architecture. the startup sequencing and timing speci- fications are

representative to obtain a spreadsheet-based tool to facilitate your design. setting the switching frequency the switching frequency influences the switching loss, the size of the power mosfets, and the size of power components such as output inductors and capacitors. higher switching frequencies result in smaller external components and more compact designs. however, power-mosfet switching losses and magnetic core losses in the output inductor increase with switching frequency, reducing efficiency. select a switching fre- quency as a tradeoff between size and efficiency. once the per-phase switching frequency is selected, the internal oscillator frequency (f osc ) must be set. determine the required oscillator frequency based on the desired per-phase switching frequency (f sw ) from table 7. for 2- or 4-phase designs, the internal clock frequency should be set at four times the desired per-phase switching frequency. in 3-phase designs, the internal clock frequency should be set at three times the desired per-phase switching frequency. set the internal clock frequency with a resistor from osc to gnd (r osc ). the value of r osc for a given internal clock frequency is approximated from the following equation: rf osc osc . . = ? 161 88 1 2074 table 7. required clock frequency for per-phase switching frequency no. of phases configuration f osc 2 pwm3 = v cc

and r osc is in k . also see the per-phase frequency vs. r osc graph in the typical operating characteristics for the relationship between the clock frequency and the value of the fre- quency-setting resistor. output inductor selection the output inductor is selected based on the desired amount of inductor ripple current. a larger inductance value minimizes output ripple current and increases efficiency but slows down the output-inductor-current slew rate during a load transient. lir is the ratio of rip- ple current to the total current per phase. for the best tradeoff of size, cost, and efficiency, an lir of 30% to 60% is recommended (lir = 0.3 to 0.6). choose a higher lir when more phases are used to take advan- tage of ripple-current cancellation. the inductor value is determined from: where f sw is the per-phase switching frequency, i out_max is the maximum-rated output current, d is the duty ratio, n is the number of phases, and v out is the output voltage at a given vid code. the output-inductor ripple current produces a ripple voltage across the out- put-capacitor esr that usually is the dominant compo- nent of the output voltage ripple. for an n-phase buck converter with a d x n factor of less than 1, the output ripple voltage, v ripple , can be calculated using: this equation takes into account the voltage ripple can- cellation from multiphase designs. optimum voltage positioning (droop) requires the effective output-capac- itor esr to match the load resistance, r o . for initial rip- ple-voltage estimates, replace r esr_co with r o . if the output-ripple-voltage specification is not satisfied, a larger value of output inductance should be chosen. the selected inductor should have the lowest possible dc resistance, and the saturation current should be greater than the peak inductor current, i peak . i peak is found from: when the dc resistance (r dc ) of the output inductor is used for current sensing, the dc resistance should be a minimum of 0.5m . it is also important that the peak-to-peak ripple voltage at the input of the current-sense amplifier not exceed 23mv: (v cs+ - v cs- ) = i ripple x r sense where r sense is the sense resistance value at the highest operating temperature. if this condition is not met, then the lir must be adjusted or the input signal to the current-sense amplifier must be scaled down with a resistor-divider. output capacitor selection in most cases, selection of the output capacitor is dic- tated by the target esr requirement, r esr_co = r o (load resistance), to meet the core-supply transient response. however, the minimum output capacitance, c o(min) , required to meet load-dump requirements, is estimated based on energy balance from: where i init and i fin are the initial and final values of the inductor current during a load dump, v init is the volt- age prior to the load dump, v fin is the voltage after, and v ov is the allowed overshoot above v fin . the above equation is an approximation, and the output- capacitance value obtained serves as a good starting point. the final value should be obtained from actual measurements. there is also an upper limit on the amount of output capacitance to meet the otf vid change requirement. too much output capacitance can prevent the output voltage from reaching the new vid output voltage with- in the otf time window: where t otf is the time window to achieve v otf (change in output voltage). if c o(max) is less than c o(min) , the system does not meet the vid otf specifi- cation. i lim is usually set at 110% to 120% of i out_max . rms ripple current rating is an additional requirement for the output capacitors. for a multiphase buck con- verter, the rms ripple current in the output capacitors is given by: for (n x d) 1, where d is the duty cycle and is com- puted from the following equation: d nv i r r nv i r r out out max dson ls dc in out max dson hs ds lo = + + ? ? __ ___ () () i vnd lf co rms out sw _ () = ? 1

switching. the input capacitors must meet the ripple-current requirement (i rms ) imposed by the switching currents as defined by the following equation: for (d x n) 1 use the minimum input voltage for calculating the duty cycle to obtain the worst-case input-capacitor rms rip- ple current. low-esr aluminum electrolytic, polymer, or ceramic capacitors should be used to avoid large volt- age transients at the input during a large step load change at the output. the ripple-current specifications provided by the manufacturer should be carefully reviewed for temperature derating. additional small- value, low-esl ceramic capacitors (1? to 10? with proper voltage rating) can be used in parallel to reduce any high-frequency ringing. boost capacitor selection the max8809a/max8810a use a bootstrap circuit to generate the floating supply voltages for the high-side drivers. the selected high-side mosfet determines the appropriate boost capacitance values according to the following equation: where m hs is the total number of high-side mosfets handled by each bst_ capacitor, q gate_hs is the total gate charge of each high-side mosfet, and v bst is the voltage variation allowed on the high-side mosfet drive. choose v bst = 0.1v to 0.2v when determining the c bst_ value. use low-esr ceramic capacitors for c bst_ . note that q gate_hs is a function of gate-drive voltage v vl_ and should be obtained from the mosfet data sheet v gs vs. q gate curve. vl_ bypass capacitor selection vl _ provides the supply voltages for the low-side dri- vers. the decoupling capacitor at vl_ also charges the high-side driver? bst capacitor during the time period when the low-side mosfet is turned on. therefore, the decoupling capacitor for vl_ should be large enough to minimize the ripple voltage during switching transi- tions. choose c vl_ according to the following equation: power-mosfet selection mosfet power dissipation depends on the gate-drive voltage (v d ), the on-resistance (r dson ), the total gate charge (q gate ), and the gate threshold voltage (v th ). the supply voltage (vl_) range for the mosfet drivers is from 4.5v to 7v. with v gate < 10v, logic-level threshold mosfets are recommended. power dissipation in the high-side mosfet consists of two parts: the conduction loss and the switching loss. the per phase conduction loss for the high side can be calculated from: where n is the number of phases and m hs is the num- ber of mosfets in parallel for each phase. total high- side conduction loss equals the number of phases times p cond_hs . switching loss is the major contributor to the high-side mosfet power dissipation due to the hard switching transition every time it turns on. the switching loss is found from the following: where v d is the gate-drive voltage and r gate is the total gate resistance including the driver? on-resistance (see the electrical characteristics table) and the mosfet gate resistance. for a logic-level power mosfet, the gate resistance is approximately 2 . q miller is the mosfet miller charge found in the mosfet data sheet. note that adding more mosfets in parallel on the high side increases the switching loss. smaller miller gate charge and lower gate resistance usually result in lower switching loss. the low-side mosfet power dissipation is mostly attributed to the conduction loss. switching loss is neg- ligible due to the zero-voltage switching at turn-on and body-diode clamp at turn-off. power dissipation in the low-side mosfets of each phase can be calculated from the following equation: pd i n lir r m cond ls out max dson ls ls _ __ () =?

with integrated dual mosfet drivers this simplified transfer function ignores a double pole due to the current-mode sampling effect, which can be approximately placed at 1/2 the per-phase switching frequency. as a rule-of-thumb, the loop should be designed to close between 1/5th and 1/10th of the per-phase switching frequency. at this point, a determination should be made as to which of the following cases applies to the desired crossover frequency: case 1: pole < 2 x f crossover < zero this case is likely to exist in situations where the zero frequency ( zero ) is relatively high due to use of low- value output capacitors with low esr (e.g., 560?/7m or all-ceramic designs). analysis of the control-to-output transfer function for this case shows that 1) the slope is -1 at the crossover frequency due to the low-frequency pole ( pole ), and 2) the compensation must provide gain boost at the crossover frequency to bring the loop gain to zero at crossover. because of item 1), the compensator gain must be flat at crossover so that the closed-loop gain rolls off with -1 slope at crossover. for this case, it is recommended to design the com- pensator with type ii compensation. the zero is placed to ensure flat gain at crossover, and the 2nd pole pro- vides phase shift above crossover. the compensator consists of a series resistor (r comp ) and capacitor (c comp1 ) from comp to gnd, and a second capacitor (c comp2 ) placed from comp to gnd, in parallel to r comp and c comp1 (see figure 11). the first step in the compensator design is to choose the desired phase margin at crossover and solve for the error-amplifier phase shift: error_amplifier = margin - contr_output where margin is the desired phase margin at cross- over, and contr_output is the phase shift from control- to-output (at crossover). the next step is to determine the constant k value in the equation below, which provides the desired error-ampli- fier phase shift determined above. the value of k deter- mines the locations of the error-amplifier zero and high-frequency pole relative to the crossover frequency: the simplified compensator transfer function can be modeled at low frequencies as: where g mv is the transconductance of the error amplifi- er. at crossover, c comp1 is essentially a short and can be ignored. the compensator must provide gain boost to bring the loop gain to zero at crossover. applying these criteria and solving for r comp : solving for c comp1 and c comp2 is now relatively straightforward: case 2: zero < 2 x f crossover < pole-cm where pole-cm is the frequency of the double pole created by the sampling effect. this case is likely to exist in situations where high-capacitance, high-esr output capacitors (e.g., low-cost aluminum electrolytic such as 2800?/12m ) are used. analysis of the control-to-output transfer function for this case shows that 1) the slope is zero at crossover so the compensation must roll off with a -1 slope, and 2) the compensation must provide gain boost at the crossover frequency to bring the loop gain to zero at crossover. both of these conditions are satisfied with the following relationship: g

the error amplifier (comp) to gnd. solving for c comp : multiload-line programming (max8810a) in some applications, it may be desired to implement multiple load-lines. this is easily accomplished by switching resistors in parallel with r ll (figure 12). paralleling resistors with r ll causes the load-line resis- tance to increase. with this scheme implemented for the max8810a, the offset voltage is not affected by the new load-line setting. it is also not necessary to change the temperature compensation based on the new load- line setting. switches s1 and s2 can be implemented with small-signal n-channel mosfets. r ll1 and r os are designed using methods described in the loop-compensation design section. r o1 , r o2 , and r o3 are the required load-line resistances. r ll2 and r ll3 are calculated as follows: setting the current limit the current-limit threshold sets the maximum available output dc current. the output current limit should be selected to meet the otf requirement as described in the output capacitor selection section. the voltage at ilim and the value of the current-sense resistor or the dc resistance of the output inductor sets the current- limit threshold: where r sense is the resistance of the current-sensing element. the value of r sense at room temperature must be used because the max8809a and max8810a provide temperature-compensated current limit. v ilim is set by connecting ilim to the center tap of a resistor- divider from ref to gnd. select r1 and r3 (figure 13) so the current through the divider is at least 10?: r1 + r3 <

vrd11/vrd10, k8 rev f 2/3/4-phase pwm controllers with integrated dual mosfet drivers applications information pc board layout guidelines a properly designed pc board layout is important in any switching dc-dc converter circuit. mount the mosfets, inductors, input/output capacitors, and cur- rent-sense resistor on the top side of the pc board. a single large ground plane is preferred; however it is very important to partition the ?nalog?portion of this ground plane from the ?ower?portion of the ground plane. ensure that all analog ground connections are made to the ground plane away from any areas of power ground switching currents. do not connect the analog returns at a single point to the ground plane; use as many direct connections as possible. connect the gnd of the ic to the thermal pad of the ic on the top layer. connect the thermal pad to the ground plane through at least nine 10-mil drill size vias. to help dissipate heat, place high-power components (mosfets and inductors) on a large copper area, or use a heat sink. keep high-current traces short, wide, and tightly coupled to reduce trace inductances and resistances. gate-drive traces should be at least 20 mils wide, kept as short as possible, and tightly cou- pled to reduce emi and ringing induced by high-fre- quency gate currents. adjacent dh_ and lx_ traces should be tightly coupled. connect the pgnd_ pins to the ground plane near the controller through two vias (each). a clean current-sense signal is critical to a successful layout. always place the current-sense traces on the bottom layer. make sure all adjacent traces (for exam- ple cs1+, cs2+, and cs12-) are tightly coupled. kelvin connections to the current-sense element are essential. for inductor dcr current-sensing, place all current- sense components near the inductor, except for the fil- tering capacitors, which should be placed next to the controller ic. this ensures that noise generated by large di/dt on the lx node is kept away from both cur- rent-sense signals and the controller ic. to ensure the integrity of the current-sense signal, the inner layer above the bottom layer must be a solid ground plane. place the vl_ decoupling capacitor on the top layer and near the vl_ pins. the negative terminal of the vl_ decoupling capacitor should be connected to pgnd_ on the top layer. also place the bst capacitors on the top layer near the controller. when needed always use double vias on the driver traces to reduce inductance. do not connect the pgnd_ pins to the thermal pad on the top layer. the ntc thermistor should be placed near the ?ottest inductor. use two traces, tightly coupled, to return to the controller. to ensure temperature compensation accuracy, make sure that the gnd trace of the ntc is not ?ccidentally?connected to any other gnd trace or ground plane on the way back to the controller. place the buf capacitor, ref capacitor, vcc capaci- tor, the current-sense decoupling capacitors, and the remote-sense decoupling capacitors as close to the max8809a/max8810a as possible. all decoupling capacitors must make a direct connection to the corre- sponding pin. making the connection using vias to transition between layers creates parasitic inductance, which negates the benefit of the decoupling capacitor. if this cannot be avoided, use double vias to minimize the parasitic inductance. a sample layout is available in the evaluation kit to speed designs. chip information process: bicmos max8809a/max8810a 40
