Two controllers (2 & 4) support loads up to 15A; two controllers (1 & 3) support load up to 5A. 6.5V to 20V input voltage range - no additional voltage rails required Output voltages programmable from 0.9V to 5.1V Up to 6 reconfigurable GPIO pins Fully programmable via I2C interface Independent Digital Pulse Width Modulator (DPWM) channels with five coefficient PID control High Integration: elimination of external circuits and components required for compensation, parameter adjustment and interface Programmable DPWM frequency range (300 kHz to 1.5 MHz) enables efficiency and component size optimization Complete power monitoring and reporting Independently controlled start-up delay and ramp for each regulator, including soft start with a pre-biased load voltage Independently controlled soft-stop delay and ramp for each regulator with a programmable stop voltage Over-temperature protection (OTP) and Under Voltage Lockout (UVLO); per-channel over-current protection (OCP) and over-voltage protection (OVP) Built-in LDO (configurable to 3.3V or 5V) with over-current protection Non-volatile memory for system configuration Configuration development tools GENERAL DESCRIPTION The XRP7740 is a quad-output pulse-width modulated (PWM) step-down DC-DC controller with a built-in LDO for standby power and GPIOs. The device provides a complete power management solution in one IC and is fully programmable via the included I2C serial interface. Independent Digital Pulse Width Modulator (DPWM) channels regulate output voltages and provide all required protection functions such as current limiting and over-voltage protection. Each output voltage can be programmed from 0.9V to 5.1V without the need of an external voltage divider. The wide range of the programmable DPWM switching frequency (from 300 KHz to 1.5 MHz) enables the user to optimize between efficiency and component size. Input voltage range is from 6.5V to 20V. Two controllers support a load of up to 5A, while the other two controllers support up to 15A. 2 I C bus interface is provided to program the IC as well as to communicate with the host for fault reporting and handling, power rail parameters monitoring, etc. The device offers a complete solution for soft-start and softstop. The start-up delay and ramp of each PWM regulator can be independently controlled. The device can start up a pre-biased PWM channel without causing large negative inductor current.

Each output voltage can be programmed from 0.9V to 5.1V without the need of an external voltage divider. The wide range of the programmable DPWM switching frequency (from 300 KHz to 1.5 MHz) enables the user to optimize for efficiency or component sizes. The digital regulation loop requires no external passive components for network compensation. The loop performance does not need to be compromised due to component tolerance, aging, and operating condition. Each digital controller provides a number of safety features, such as over-current protection (OCP) and over-voltage protection (OVP). The chip also provides over-temperature protection (OTP) and under-voltage lock-out (UVLO) for two input voltage rails. The XRP7740 also has up to 6 GPIOs and a Standby Linear Regulator to provide standby power. An I2C bus interface is provided to program the IC as well as to communicate with the host for fault reporting and handling, power rail monitoring, channel enable and disable, Standby Low Drop-out Regulator voltage reconfiguration, and Standby LDO enable and disable. The XRP7740 offers a complete solution for soft-start and soft-stop. The delay and ramp of each PWM regulator can be independently controlled. When a pre-bias voltage is present, the device holds both high-side and low-side MOSFETs off until the reference voltage ramps up higher than the output voltage. As a result, large negative inductor current and output voltage disturbance are avoided. During soft-stop, the output voltage ramps down with a programmable slope until it reaches a pre-set stop voltage. This pre-set value can be programmed between within zero volts and the target voltage with the same set target voltage resolution (see shutdown waveforms in Applications). Register Types There are two types of registers in the XRP7740: read/write registers and read-only registers. The read/write registers are used for the control functions of the IC and can be programmed using configuration non-volatile memory (NVM) or through an I2C command. The read-only registers are for feedback functions such as error/warning flags and for reading the output voltage or current. Non-Volatile Configuration Memory The non-volatile memory (NVM) in XRP7740 stores the configuration data for the chip and all of the power rails. This memory is normally configured during manufacturing time. Once a specific bit of the NVM is programmed, that bit can never be reprogrammed again [i.e. one-time programmable]. During chip power up, the contents in the NVM are automatically transferred to the internal registers of the chip. Programmed cells have been verified to be permanent for at least 10 years and are highly reliable. EXAR RESERVES THE RIGHT TO MAKE CHANGES TO THIS DATASHEET.

The startup stage is divided into three phases. The first phase is the internal LDO power-up phase. The second phase is the configuration transfer phase. The third phase is chip ready phase. The power up sequence is less than 1ms. Phase 1 VIN1 ENABLE_PIN VCC VDD VDDOK SYS_RESET CONFIG_TRANSFER CHIP_READY Phase 2 Phase 3 Power up sequence Internal LDO Power-Up Phase - Phase 1 When the ENABLE pin is set, internal VCC and VDD power up upon the power up of VIN1. Once the bandgap reference is stable and VCC and VDD fall into the acceptable range, an internal VDDOK flag is generated. A SYS_RESET remains low for a few clock cycles to reset all the internal registers. After that the internal CONFIGURATION_TRANSFER signal raises high and the chip transits to the second phase. Configuration Transfer Phase - Phase 2 In this phase, the contents in the configuration memory are transferred to the internal registers. The internal oscillator switches to the programed switching frequency. The GPIO pins are properly configured as either inputs or outputs. If the chip is programmed to run in the I2C mode, GPIO4 and GPIO5 are configured to serve as SDA and SCL for the I2C bus. If chip is programmed to run in the NON-I2C mode, then these two pins can be used as GPIO4 and GPIO5 respectively. In this phase, the chip is ready for normal operation. An internal CHIP_READY flag goes high and enables the I2C to acknowledge the Host's serial commands. Channels that are configured as always-on channels are enabled. Channels that are configured to be enabled by GPIOs are also enabled if the respective GPIO is asserted. Chip Ready Phase - Phase 3 EXAR RESERVES THE RIGHT TO MAKE CHANGES TO THIS DATASHEET.

DO NOT DISTRIBUTE OR COPY. 15 REV 1.1.0 XRP7740 Quad-Output Digital PWM Buck Controller Standby Low Drop-out Regulator This 100mA low drop-out regulator can be programmed as 3.3V or 5V in SET_STBLDO_EN_CONFIG register. Its output is seen on the LDOOUT Pin. This LDO is fully controllable via the Enable Pin (configured to turn on as soon as power is applied), a GPIO, and/or I2C communication. Enabling, Disabling and Reset The XRP7740 is enabled via raising the ENABLE Pin high. The chip can then be disabled by lowering the same ENABLE Pin. There is also the capability for resetting the Chip via an I2C SOFTRESET Command. For enabling a specific channel, there are several ways that this can be achieved. The chip can be configured to enable a channel at start-up as the default configuration residing in the non-volatile configuration memory of the IC. The channels can also be enabled using GPIO pins and/or an I2C Bus serial command. The registers that control the channel enable functions are the SET_EN_CONFIG and SET_CH_EN_I2C. Internal Gate Drivers The XRP7740 integrates Internal Gate Drivers for all 4 PWM channels. These drivers are optimized to drive both high-side and low side N-MOSFETs for synchronous operation. Both high side and low side drivers have the capability of driving 1 nF load with 30 ns rise and fall time. The drivers have built-in non-overlapping circuitry to prevent simultaneous conduction of the two MOSFETs. Fault Handling While the chip is operating there are four different types of fault handling: * * * * Under Voltage Lockout (UVLO) monitors the input voltage to the chip, and the chip will shutdown all channels if the voltage drops to critical levels. Over Temperature Protection (OTP) monitors the temperature of the chip, and the chip will shutdown all channels if the temperature rises to critical levels. Over Voltage Protection (OVP) monitors the voltage of channel and will shutdown the channel if it surpasses its voltage threshold. Over Current Protection (OCP) monitors the current of a channel, and will shutdown the channel if it surpasses its current threshold. The channel will be automatically restarted after a 200ms delay.

DO NOT DISTRIBUTE OR COPY. 16 REV 1.1.0 XRP7740 Quad-Output Digital PWM Buck Controller Under Voltage Lockout (UVLO) There are two locations where the under voltage can be sensed: VIN1 and VIN2. The SET_UVLO_WARN_VINx register that sets the under voltage warning set point condition at 100mV increments. When the warning threshold is reached, the Host is informed via a GPIO or by reading the READ_WARN_FLAG register. The SET_UVLO_TARG_VINx register that controls the under voltage fault set point condition at 100mV increments. This fault condition will be indicated in the READ_FAULT_WARN register. When an under voltage fault condition occurs (either on VIN1 or VIN2), the fault flag register is set and all of the XRP7740 outputs are shut down. The measured input voltages can be read back using the READ_VIN1 or READ_VIN2 register, and both registers have a resolution of 100mV per LSB. When the UVLO condition clears (voltage rises above the UVLO Warning Threshold), the chip can be configured to automatically restart. VIN1 This is a multi-function pin that provides power to both the Standby Linear Regulator and internal linear regulators to generate VCCA, VDD, and the Standby LDO (LDOUT). It is also used as a UVLO detection pin. If Vin1 falls below its user programmed limit, all channels are shut down. VIN2 VIN2 is required to be tied to VIN1 pin. It can be used as a UVLO detection pin. If VIN2 falls below its user programmed limit, all channels are shut down. Temperature Monitoring and Over Temperature Protection (OTP) Reading the junction temperature This register allows the user to read back the temperature of the IC. The temperature is expressed in Kelvin with a maximum range of 520K, a minimum of 200K, and an LSB of 5 degrees K. The temperature can be accessed by reading the READ_VTJ register. Over Temperature Warning There are also warning and fault flags that get set in the READ_OVV_UVLO_OVT_FLAG register. The warning threshold is configurable to 5 or 10 Degrees C below the fault threshold. When the junction temperature reaches 5 or 10 Degrees C below the user defined set point, the over-temperature warning bit [OTPW] gets set in the READ_OVV_UVLO_OVT_FLAG register to warn the user that the IC might go into an over temperature condition (and shutdown all of the regulators). Over Temperature Fault If the over temperature condition occurs both the OTP and OTPW bits will be set in the READ_OVV_UVLO_OVT_FLAG register and the IC will shut down all channels (but I2C will remain operational). The actual over temperature threshold can be set by the user by using a 7bit SET_THERMAL_SHDN register with an LSB of 5K. If the over temperature fault condition clears, then the IC can be set to restart the chip automatically. The restart temperature threshold can be set by the SET_THERMAL_RESTART register.

DO NOT DISTRIBUTE OR COPY. 17 REV 1.1.0 XRP7740 Quad-Output Digital PWM Buck Controller Output Voltage Setting and Monitoring The Output Voltage setting is controlled by the SET_VOUT_TARGET_CHx register. This register allows the user to set the output voltage with a resolution of 50mV for output voltages between 0 and 2.5V and with a resolution of 100mV for output voltages between 2.6V and 5.1V. Output voltages higher than 5.1V can be achieved by adding an external voltage divider network. The output voltage of a particular channel can be read back using the READ_VOUTx register. Output Voltage from 0.9V to 5.1V Per the equation below, for values between 0.9V and 5.1V the output voltage is equal to the binary number stored in the SET_VOUT_TARGET_CHx register multiplied by 50mV. When programming an output voltage from 2.6V to 5.1V, odd binary values should be avoided. As a result, the set resolution for an output voltage higher than 2.5V is 100mV. Output VOUT Higher Than 5.1V To set the output voltage higher than 5.1V, the user needs to add an external voltage divider. The resistors used in the voltage divider should be below 10k. The SET_VOUT_TARGET_CHx register should be set to 0x32 which is equivalent to an output voltage of 2.5V without the external divider network. The output voltage regulation in this case might exceed 2% due to extra error from the resistor divider. R1 and R2 follow the definition below. External divider network for high output voltage Output Voltage Lower Than 0.9V The XRP7740 can be programmed to regulate an output voltage lower than 0.9V. However, in this case the specification of +-2% output voltage accuracy may be exceeded. EXAR RESERVES THE RIGHT TO MAKE CHANGES TO THIS DATASHEET. EXAR CONFIDENTIAL, PRELIMINARY & PROPRIETARY.

The over-voltage protection is always active even during soft-start condition. When the over-voltage condition is tripped, the controller will shut down the channel. When the channel is shut down the controller will then set corresponding OVP Fault bits in the READ_OVV_UVLO_OVT_FLAG register. The VOUT OVP Threshold is 150mV to 300mV above nominal VOUT for a Voltage Target of 2.5V or less. For the Voltage Target of 2.6V to 5.1V, the VOUT OVP Threshold is 300mV to 600mV. Once the over-voltage Channel is disabled, the controller will check the SET_FAULT_RESP_CONFIG_LB and SET_FAULT_RESP_CONFIG_HB to determine whether there are any "following" channels that need to be shut down. Any following channel will be disabled when the channel with the Over Voltage Fault is disabled. The channel(s) will remain disabled, until the Host takes action to enable the channel(s). Any of the fault and warning conditions can also be configured to be represented using the general purpose input 2 output pins (GPIO) to use as an interface with non I C compatible devices. For further information on this topic see the "GPIO Pins" Section. During OVP fault shutdown of the channel, the customer has the option to choose two types of shutdown for each channel. The first shutdown is `passive shutdown' where the IC merely stops outputting pulses. The second shutdown is a `brute force' shutdown where the GL remains on as the channel reaches its discharged voltage. Note that if the `brute force' method is chosen, then GL will permanently remain high until the channel is reenabled. Output Current Setting and Monitoring XRP7740 utilizes a low side MOSFET Rdson current sensing technique. The voltage drop on Rdson is measured by dedicated current ADC. The ADC results are compared to a maximum current threshold and an over-current warning threshold to generate the fault and warning flags. Maximum Output Current The maximum output current is set by the SET_VIOUT_MAX_CHx register and SET_ISENSE_PARAM_CHx register. The SET_VIOUT_MAX_CHx register is an 8 bit register. Bits [5:0] set the maximum current threshold and bits [7:6] set the over-current warning threshold. The LSB for the current limit register is 5 mV and the allowed voltage range is between 0 and 315mV. To calculate the maximum current limit, the user needs to provide the MOSFET Rdson. The maximum current can be calculated as: Where Kt is the temperature coefficient of the MOSFET Rdson; Vsense is the voltage across Rdson; IOUTMAX is the maximum output current. Over-Current Warning The XRP7740 also offers an Over-Current warning flag. This warning flag resides in the READ_OVC_FLAG register. The warning flag bit will be set when the output current gets to within a specified value of the output current limit threshold enabling the host to reduce power consumption. The SET_VIOUT_MAX_CHx register allows the warning flag threshold to be set 10mV, 20mV, 30mV or 40mV below VIOUT_MAX. The warning flag will be automatically cleared when the current drops below the warning threshold. EXAR RESERVES THE RIGHT TO MAKE CHANGES TO THIS DATASHEET.

DO NOT DISTRIBUTE OR COPY. 19 REV 1.1.0 XRP7740 Quad-Output Digital PWM Buck Controller Over-Current Fault Handling When an over-current condition occurs, PWM drivers in the corresponding channels are disabled. After a 200ms timeout, the controller is re-powered and soft-start is initiated. When the over-current condition is reached the controller will check the SET_FAULT_RESP_CONFIG_LB and SET_FAULT_RESP_CONFIG_HB to determine whether there are any "following" channels that need to be similarly restarted. The controller will also set the fault flags in READ_OVC_FAULT_WARN register. Typically the over-current fault threshold would be set to 130-140% of the maximum desirable output current. This will help avoid any over-current conditions caused by transients that would shut down the output channel. Chip Operation and Configuration Soft-Start The SET_SS_RISE_CHx register is a 16 bit register which specifies the soft-start delay and the ramp characteristics for a specific channel. This register allows the customer to program the channel with a 250us step resolution and up to a maximum 16ms delay. Bits [15:10] specify the delay after enabling a channel but before outputting pulses; where each bit represents 250us steps. Bits [9:0] specify the rise time of the channel; these 10 bits define the number of microseconds for each 50mV increment to reach the target voltage.

DO NOT DISTRIBUTE OR COPY. 20 REV 1.1.0 XRP7740 Quad-Output Digital PWM Buck Controller Soft-Stop The SET_PD_FALL_CHx register is a 16 bit register. This register specifies the soft-stop delay and ramp (falltime) characteristics for when the chip receives a channel disable indication from the Host to shutdown the channel. Bits [15:10] specify the delay after disabling a channel but before starting the shutdown of the channel; where each bit represents 250us steps. Bits [9:0] specify the fall time of the channel; these 10 bits define the number of microseconds for each 50mV increment to reach the discharge threshold. Channel Soft-Stop Sequence Power Good Flag The XRP7740 allows the user to set the upper and lower bound for a power good signal per channel. The SET_PWRG_TARG_MAX_CHx register sets the upper bound, the SET_PWRG_TARG_MIN_CHx register sets the lower bound. Each register has a 20mV LSB resolution. When the output voltage is within bounds the power good signal is asserted high. Typically the upper bound should be lower than the over-voltage threshold. In addition, the power good signal can be delayed by a programmable amount set in the SET_PWRGD_DLY_CHx register. The power good delay is only set after the soft-start period is finished. If the channel has a pre-charged condition that falls into the power good region, a power good flag is not set until the soft-start is finished.

Bits [6:4] set the oscillator frequency and bits [2:0] set the clock divider. The tables below summarize the available Main Oscillator and PWM switching frequency settings in the XRP7740. Main Oscillator Frequency SET_SW_FREQUENCY[6:4] Main Oscillator Frequency Ts 000 48MHz 20.8ns 001 44.8MHz 22.3ns 010 41.6MHz 24ns 011 100 38.4MHz 35.2MHz 26ns 28.4ns 101 32MHz 31.25ns 110 28.8Mhz 34.7ns 111 25.6MHz 39ns PWM Switching Frequency SET_SW_FREQUENCY[2:0] 000 001 010 011 100 101 110 111 000 NA 1.5MHz 1.0MHz 750KHz 600KHZ 500KHz 429KHZ 375KHz 001 NA 1.4MHz 933KHz 700KHz 560KHz 467KHZ 400KHZ 350KHz 010 NA 1.3MHz 867KHz 650KHz 520KHz 433KHz 370KHz 325KHz SET_SW_FREQUENCY[6:4] 011 100 101 NA NA NA 1.2MHz 1.1MHz 1.0MHz 800KHz 733KHz 667KHz 600KHz 550KHz 500KHz 480KHz 440KHz 400KHz 400KHz 367KHz 333KHz 343KHz 314KHz NA 300KHz NA NA 110 NA 900KHz 600KHz 450KHz 360KHz 300KHz NA NA 111 NA 800KHz 533KHz 400KHz 320KHz NA NA NA Setting the PWM switching frequency There are a number of options that could result in similar PWM switching frequency as shown above. In general, the chip consumes less power at lower oscillator frequency. When synchronization to external clock is needed, the user can choose the oscillator frequency to be within +/- 5% of the external clock frequency. A higher Main Oscillator frequency will not improve accuracy or any performance efficiency. PWM Switching Frequency Considerations There are several considerations when choosing the PWM switching frequency. Minimum On Time Minimum on time determines the minimum duty cycle at the specific switching frequency. The minimum on time for the XRP7740 is 40ns. As an example the minimum duty cycle is 4% for 1MHz PWM frequency. This is important since the minimum on time dictates the maximum conversion ratio that the PWM controller can achieve.

DO NOT DISTRIBUTE OR COPY. 22 REV 1.1.0 XRP7740 Quad-Output Digital PWM Buck Controller Maximum Duty Cycle The maximum duty cycle is dictated by the minimum required time to sample the current when the low side MOSFET is on. For the XRP7740, the minimum required sampling time is about 16 clock cycles at the main oscillator frequency. When calculating maximum duty cycle, the sampling time needs to be subtracted using the below equation. For example, if operating at 1MHz using the 32MHz main oscillator frequency, the maximum duty cycle would be: Maximum Duty Cycle% = (1 - ((16/clock frequency)*PWM frequency)) - 0.03) * 100 47% On the other hand, if the 48MHz main oscillator frequency was chosen for the 1MHz PWM frequency, the maximum duty cycle would be: Maximum Duty Cycle% = (1 - ((16/clock frequency)*PWM frequency) - 0.03) * 100 64% Therefore, it is best to choose the highest main oscillator frequency for a particular PWM frequency if duty cycle limit might be encountered. The maximum duty cycle for any PWM frequency can easily be determined using the following table: Main Osc. Frequency Maximum Duty Cycle 47% 64% 72% 77% 80% 83% 85% 48MHz 1.5MHz 1.0MHz 750KHz 600KHZ 500KHz 429KHZ 375KHz 44.8MHz 1.4MHz 933KHz 700KHz 560KHz 467KHZ 400KHZ 350KHz 41.6MHz 1.3MHz 867KHz 650KHz 520KHz 433KHz 370KHz 325KHz 38.4MHz 35.2MHz PWM Frequency 1.2MHz 1.1MHz 800KHz 733KHz 600KHz 550KHz 480KHz 440KHz 400KHz 367KHz 343KHz 314KHz 300KHz NA 32MHz 1.0MHz 667KHz 500KHz 400KHz 333KHz NA NA 28.8Mhz 900KHz 600KHz 450KHz 360KHz 300KHz NA NA 25.6MHz 800KHz 533KHz 400KHz 320KHz NA NA NA It is highly recommended that the maximum duty cycle obtained from the table above be programmed into each of the channels using the SET_DUTY_LIMITER_CHx register. This ensures that under all conditions (including faults), there will always be sufficient sampling time to measure the output current. When the duty cycle limit is reached, the output voltage will no longer regulate and will be clamped based on the maximum duty cycle limit setting. Efficiency The PWM Switching frequency plays an important role on overall power conversion efficiency. As the switching frequency increase, the switching losses also increase. Please see the APPLICATION INFORMATION, Typical Performance Data for further examples. Component Selection and Frequency Typically the components become smaller as the frequency increases, as long as the ripple requirements remain constant. At higher frequency the inductor can be smaller in value and have a smaller footprint while still maintaining the same current rating. EXAR RESERVES THE RIGHT TO MAKE CHANGES TO THIS DATASHEET.

This function can be configured using the SET_SYNC_MODE_CONFIG register. This register sets the operation of the XRP7740 when an external clock is required. By selecting the appropriate bit combination the user can configure the IC to function as a master or a slave when two or more XRP7740s are used to convert power in a system. Automatic clock selection is also provided to allow operation even if the external clock fails by switching the IC back to an internal clock. External Clock Synchronization Even when configured to use an external clock, the chip initially powers up with its internal clock. The user can set the percent target that the frequency detector will use when comparing the internal clock with the clock frequency input on the GPIO pin. If the external clock frequency is detected to be within the window specified by the user, then a switchover will occur to the external clock. If the IC does not find a clock in the specified frequency target range then the external clock will not be used and the IC will run on the internal clock that was specified by the user. If the external clock fails the user can chose to have the internal clock take over, using the automatic switch back mode in the SET_SYNC_MODE_CONFIG register. CLK_IN GPIO1 XRP7740 Configured for external clock use XRP7740 Configured For External Clock Use Synchronized Operation as a Master and Slave Unit Two XRP7740s can be synchronized together. This Master-Slave configuration is described below. Master When the XRP7740 powers up as a master unit after the internal configuration memory is loaded the unit will send CLK_OUT and SYNC_OUT signals to the slave on the preconfigured GPIO pins Slave When powering in sync mode the slave unit will initially power up with its internal clock to transfer the configuration memory. Once this transfer occurs, then the unit is set to function as a slave unit. In turn the unit will take the external clock provided by the master to run as its main internal clock.

All of the same rules apply as in the External clock synchronization, Synchronized operation as a Slave unit section of this document.

Two or more of the channels can use the same phase shift, however, it is preferable to run each channel at separate phases. GPIO Pins The General Purpose Input Output (GPIO) Pins are the basic interface between the XRP7740 and the system. Although all of the stored data within the IC can be read back using the I2C bus it is sometimes convenient to have some of those internal register to be displayed and or controlled by a single data pin. Besides simple input output functions the GPIO pins can be configured to serve as external clock inputs. These pins can be programmed using OTP bits or can be programmed using the I2C bus. This GPIO_CONFIG register allows the user close to 100 different configuration functions that the GPIO can be programmed to do. NOTE: the GPIO Pins (and all I/Os) should NOT be driven without a 10K resistor when VIN is not being applied to the IC. GPIO Pins Polarity The polarity of the GPIO pin can be set by using the GPIO_ACT_POL register. This register allows any GPIO pin whether configured as an input or output to change polarity. Bits [5:0] are used to set the polarity of GPIO 0 though 5. If the IC operates in I2C mode, then the commands for Bits [5:4] are ignored. Supply Rail Enable Each GPIO can be configured to enable a specific power rail for the system. The GPIOx_CFG register allows a GPIO to enable/disable any of the following rails controlled by the chip: * A single buck power controller * The Standby LDO * Any mix of the Standby LDO and power controller(s) When the configured GPIO is asserted externally, the corresponding rails will be enabled, and they will be similarly disabled when the GPIO is de-asserted. This supply enabling/disabling can also be controlled through the I2C interface. Power Good Indicator The GPIO pins can be configured as Power Good indicators for one or more rails. The GPIO pin is asserted when all rails configured for this specific IO are within specified limits for regulation. This information can also be found in the READ_PWRGD_SS_FLAG status register.

Each GPIO can be configured to signal one of the following: * * * * * * OCP Fault on Channel 1 - 4 OCP Warning on Channel 1 - 4 OVP Fault on Channel 1 - 4 UVLO Fault on VIN1 or VIN2 UVLO Warning on VIN1 or VIN2 Over Temperature Fault or Warning I2C Communication The I2C communication is standard 2-wire communication available between the Host and the IC. This interface allows for the full control, monitoring, and reconfiguration of the semiconductor. The I2C Slave address is saved in the NVM. Therefore, each customer can choose the 7-bit Slave Address which will work best in their design (in relation to any other I2C devices on the bus). External Component Selection Inductor Selection Select the Inductor for inductance L and saturation current Isat. Select an inductor with Isat higher than the programmed over current limit. Calculate inductance from: Where: VIN is the converter input voltage VOUT is the converter output voltage fs is the switching frequency Irip is the inductor peak-to-peak current ripple (nominally set to 30% of Iout) Keep in mind that a higher Irip results in a smaller inductance value which has the advantages of smaller size, lower DC equivalent resistance (DCR), and allows the use of a lower output capacitance to meet a given step load transient. A higher Irip, however, increases the output voltage ripple, requires higher saturation current limit, and increases critical conduction. Notice that this critical conduction current is half of Irip. Capacitor Selection Output Capacitor Selection Select the output capacitor for voltage rating, capacitance and Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR). Nominally the voltage rating is selected to be at least twice as large as the output voltage.

This causes an overshoot in output voltage that is corrected by power switch reduced duty cycle. Use the following equation to calculate Cout: Cout = L Where: ( I 2 - I1 ) 2 2 2 Vos - Vout L is the output inductance I2 is the step load high current I1 is the step load low current Vos is output voltage including the overshoot VOUT is the steady state output voltage Or it can be expressed approximately as: Cout = L ( I 2 - I1 ) 2 2Vout V Here, V = Vos - Vout is the overshoot voltage deviation. Select ESR such that output voltage ripple (Vrip) specification is met. There are two components in Vrip. First component arises from the charge transferred to and from Cout during each cycle. The second component of Vrip is due to the inductor ripple current flowing through the output capacitor's ESR. It can be calculated for Vrip: Where: Irip is the inductor ripple current fs is the switching frequency Cout is the output capacitance Note that a smaller inductor results in a higher Irip, therefore requiring a larger Cout and/or lower ESR in order to meet Vrip. Input Capacitor Selection Select the input capacitor for Voltage, Capacitance, ripple current, ESR and ESL. Voltage rating is nominally selected to be at least twice the input voltage. The RMS value of input capacitor current, assuming a low inductor ripple current, can be approximated as: I in = I out D(1 - D) Where: Iin is the RMS input current Iout is the DC output current D is the duty cycle EXAR RESERVES THE RIGHT TO MAKE CHANGES TO THIS DATASHEET.

The input voltage ripple also has two major components: the voltage drop on the main capacitor VCin and the voltage drop due to ESR - VESR . The contribution to Input voltage ripple by each term can be calculated from: VCin = I outVout (Vin - Vout ) 2 f s C inVin VESR = ESR ( I out + 0.5 I rip ) Total input voltage ripple is the sum of the above: VTot = VCin + VESR Power MOSFETs Selection Selecting MOSFETs with lower Rdson reduces conduction losses at the expense of increased switching losses. A simplified expression for conduction losses is given by: Pcond = I out Rdson 2 Vout Vin MOSFET's junction temperature can be estimated from: T j = 2 Pcond Rthja + Tambient This assumes that the switching loss is the same as the conduction loss.
