DATA SHEET XPHASE3TM PHASE IC
DESCRIPTION
The IR3505 Phase IC combined with an IR XPhase3 Control IC provides a full featured and flexible way to implement power solutions for the latest high performance CPUs and ASICs. The "Control" IC provides overall system control and interfaces with any number of "Phase" ICs which each drive and monitor a single TM phase of a multiphase converter. The XPhase3 architecture results in a power supply that is smaller, less expensive, and easier to design while providing higher efficiency than conventional approaches.

SYSTEM THEORY OF OPERATION
PWM Control Method The PWM block diagram of the XPhase architecture is shown in Figure 1. Feed-forward voltage mode control with trailing edge modulation is used. A high-gain wide-bandwidth voltage type error amplifier in the Control IC is used for the voltage control loop. Input voltage is sensed in phase ICs and feed-forward control is realized. The PWM ramp slope will change with the input voltage and automatically compensate for changes in the input voltage. The input voltage can change due to variations in the silver box output voltage or due to the wire and PCB-trace voltage drop related to changes in load current.

Figure 1 PWM Block Diagram Frequency and Phase Timing Control The oscillator is located in the Control IC and the system clock frequency is programmable from 250kHz to 9MHZ by an external resistor. The control IC system clock signal (CLKOUT) is connected to CLKIN of all the phase ICs. The phase timing of the phase ICs is controlled by the daisy chain loop, where control IC phase clock output (PHSOUT) is connected to the phase clock input (PHSIN) of the first phase IC, and PHSOUT of the first phase IC is connected to PHSIN of the second phase IC, etc. and PHSOUT of the last phase IC is connected back to PHSIN of the control IC. During power up, the control IC sends out clock signals from both CLKOUT and PHSOUT pins and detects the feedback at PHSIN pin to determine the phase number and monitor any fault in the daisy chain loop. Figure 2 shows the phase timing for a four phase converter. The switching frequency is set by the resistor ROSC as shown in Figure 9. The clock frequency equals the number of phase times the switching frequency. Page 7 of 19 Sept 26 , 2007

Figure 2 Four Phase Oscillator Waveforms PWM Operation The PWM comparator is located in the phase IC. Upon receiving the falling edge of a clock pulse, the PWM latch is set; the PWM ramp voltage begins to increase; the low side driver is turned off, and the high side driver is turned on after the non-overlap time. When the PWM ramp voltage exceeds the error amplifier's output voltage the PWM latch is reset. This turns off the high side driver, turns on the low side driver after the non-overlap time, and activates the ramp discharge clamp. The clamp drives the PWM ramp voltage to the level set by the share adjust amplifier until the next clock pulse. The PWM latch is reset dominant allowing all phases to go to zero duty cycle within a few tens of nanoseconds in response to a load step decrease. Phases can overlap and go up to 100% duty cycle in response to a load step increase with turn-on gated by the clock pulses. An error amplifier output voltage greater than the common mode input range of the PWM comparator results in 100% duty cycle regardless of the voltage of the PWM ramp. This arrangement guarantees the error amplifier is always in control and can demand 0 to 100% duty cycle as required. It also favors response to a load step decrease which is appropriate given the low output to input voltage ratio of most systems. The inductor current will increase much more rapidly than decrease in response to load transients. An additional advantage of this PWM modulator is that differences in ground or input voltage at the phases have no effect on operation since the PWM ramps are referenced to VDAC. Figure 3 depicts PWM operating waveforms under various conditions.

TM
In a conventional synchronous buck converter, the minimum time required to reduce the current in the inductor in response to a load step decrease is;
TSLEW = L * ( I MAX - I MIN ) VO
The slew rate of the inductor current can be significantly increased by turning off the synchronous rectifier in response to a load step decrease. The switch node voltage is then forced to decrease until conduction of the synchronous rectifier's body diode occurs. This increases the voltage across the inductor from Vout to Vout + VBODYDIODE. The minimum time required to reduce the current in the inductor in response to a load transient decrease is now;
TSLEW = L * ( I MAX - I MIN ) VO + VBODYDIODE
Since the voltage drop in the body diode is often comparable to the output voltage, the inductor current slew rate can be increased significantly. This patented technique is referred to as "body braking" and is accomplished through the "body braking comparator" located in the phase IC. If the error amplifier's output voltage drops below the output voltage of the share adjust amplifier in the phase IC, this comparator turns off the low side gate driver. Lossless Average Inductor Current Sensing Inductor current can be sensed by connecting a series resistor and a capacitor network in parallel with the inductor and measuring the voltage across the capacitor, as shown in Figure 4. The equation of the sensing network is,
vC ( s ) = vL ( s ) 1 RL + sL = iL ( s ) 1 + sRCS CCS 1 + sRCS CCS
Usually the resistor Rcs and capacitor Ccs are chosen so that the time constant of Rcs and Ccs equals the time constant of the inductor which is the inductance L over the inductor DCR (RL). If the two time constants match, the voltage across Ccs is proportional to the current through L, and the sense circuit can be treated as if only a sense resistor with the value of RL was used. The mismatch of the time constants does not affect the measurement of inductor DC current, but affects the AC component of the inductor current. Page 9 of 19 Sept 26 , 2007

Figure 4 Inductor Current Sensing and Current Sense Amplifier
The advantage of sensing the inductor current versus high side or low side sensing is that actual output current being delivered to the load is obtained rather than peak or sampled information about the switch currents. The output voltage can be positioned to meet a load line based on real time information. Except for a sense resistor in series with the inductor, this is the only sense method that can support a single cycle transient response. Other methods provide no information during either load increase (low side sensing) or load decrease (high side sensing). An additional problem associated with peak or valley current mode control for voltage positioning is that they suffer from peak-to-average errors. These errors will show in many ways but one example is the effect of frequency variation. If the frequency of a particular unit is 10% low, the peak to peak inductor current will be 10% larger and the output impedance of the converter will drop by about 10%. Variations in inductance, current sense amplifier bandwidth, PWM prop delay, any added slope compensation, input voltage, and output voltage are all additional sources of peak-to-average errors. Current Sense Amplifier A high speed differential current sense amplifier is located in the phase IC, as shown in Figure 5. Its gain is nominally 32.5 and the 3850 ppm/C increase in inductor DCR should be compensated in the voltage loop feedback path. The current sense amplifier can accept positive differential input up to 50mV and negative up to -10mV before clipping. The output of the current sense amplifier is summed with the DAC voltage and sent to the control IC and other phases through an on-chip 3K resistor connected to the ISHARE pin. The ISHARE pins of all the phases are tied together and the voltage on the share bus represents the average current through all the inductors and is used by the control IC for voltage positioning and current limit protection. The input offset of this amplifier is calibrated to +/- 1mV in order to reduce the current sense error. The input offset voltage is the primary source of error for the current share loop. In order to achieve very small input offset error and superior current sharing performance, the current sense amplifier continuously calibrates itself. This calibration algorithm creates ripple on ISHARE bus with a frequency of fsw/(32*28) in a multiphase architecture. Average Current Share Loop Current sharing between phases of the converter is achieved by the average current share loop in each phase IC. The output of the current sense amplifier is compared with the average current at the share bus. If current in a phase is smaller than the average current, the share adjust amplifier of the phase will pull down the starting point of the PWM ramp thereby increasing its duty cycle and output current; if current in a phase is larger than the average current, the share adjust amplifier of the phase will pull up the starting point of the PWM ramp thereby decreasing its duty cycle and output current. The current share amplifier is internally compensated so that the crossover frequency of the current share loop is much slower than that of the voltage loop and the two loops do not interact.

Tri-State Gate Drivers The gate drivers can deliver up to 2A peak current (4A sink current for bottom driver). An adaptive non-overlap circuit monitors the voltage on the GATEH and GATEL pins to prevent MOSFET shoot-through current while minimizing body diode conduction. The non-overlap latch is added to eliminate the error triggering caused by the switching noise. An enable signal is provided by the control IC to the phase IC without the addition of a dedicated signal line. The error amplifier output of the control IC drives low in response to any fault condition such as VCCL TM under voltage or output overload. The IR3505 Body Braking comparator detects this and drives bottom gate output low. This tri-state operation prevents negative inductor current and negative output voltage during powerdown. A synchronous rectification disable comparator is used to detect converter CSIN- pin voltage, which represents local converter output voltage. If the voltage is below 75% of VDAC and negative current is detected, GATEL drives low, which disables synchronous rectification and eliminates negative current during power-up. The gate drivers pull low if the supply voltages are below the normal operating range. An 80k resistor is connected across the GATEH/GATEL and PGND pins to prevent the GATEH/GATEL voltage from rising due to leakage or other causes under these conditions. th Page 11 of 19 Sept 26 , 2007

Over Voltage Protection (OVP) The IR3505 includes over-voltage protection that turns on the low side MOSFET to protect the load in the event of a shorted high-side MOSFET, converter out of regulation, or connection of the converter output to an excessive output voltage. As shown in Figure 6, if ISHARE pin voltage is above V(VCCL) - 0.8V, which represents over-voltage condition detected by control IC, the over-voltage latch is set. GATEL drives high and GATEH drives low. The OVP circuit overrides the normal PWM operation and within approximately 150ns will fully turn-on the low side MOSFET, which remains ON until ISHARE drops below V(VCCL) - 0.8V when over voltage ends. The over voltage fault is latched in control IC and can only be reset by cycling the power to control IC. The error amplifier output (EAIN) is pulled down by control IC and will remain low. The lower MOSFETs alone can not clamp the output voltage however an SCR or N-MOSFET could be triggered with the OVP output to prevent processor damage.

Figure 6 - Over-voltage protection waveforms PWM Ramp Every time the phase IC is powered up PWM ramp magnitude is calibrated to generate a 50 mV/% ramp for a VCC=12V. For example, for a 15% duty ratio the ramp amplitude is 750mV for VCC=12V. Feed-forward control is achieved because the PWM ramp varies with VCC voltage proportionally after calibration. Debugging Mode If CSIN+ pin is pulled up to VCCL voltage, IR3505 enters into debugging mode. Both drivers are pulled low and ISHARE output is disconnected from the current share bus, which isolates this phase IC from other phases. However, the phase timing from PHSIN to PHSOUT does not change.

Emulated Bootstrap Diode IR3505 integrates a PFET to emulate the bootstrap diode. An external bootstrap diode connected from VCCL pin to BOOST pin can be added to reduce the drop across the PFET but is not needed in most applications.
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
IR3505 EXTERNAL COMPONENTS Inductor Current Sensing Capacitor CCS and Resistor RCS The DC resistance of the inductor is utilized to sense the inductor current. Usually the resistor RCS and capacitor CCS in parallel with the inductor are chosen to match the time constant of the inductor, and therefore the voltage across the capacitor CCS represents the inductor current. If the two time constants are not the same, the AC component of the capacitor voltage is different from that of the real inductor current. The time constant mismatch does not affect the average current sharing among the multiple phases, but does effect the current signal ISHARE as well as the output voltage during the load current transient if adaptive voltage positioning is adopted. Measure the inductance L and the inductor DC resistance RL. Pre-select the capacitor CCS and calculate RCS as follows. L RL (1) RCS = C CS Bootstrap Capacitor CBST Depending on the duty cycle and gate drive current of the phase IC, a capacitor in the range of 0.1uF to 1uF is needed for the bootstrap circuit. Decoupling Capacitors for Phase IC A 0.1uF-1uF decoupling capacitor is required at the VCCL pin. CURRENT SHARE LOOP COMPENSATION The internal compensation of current share loop ensures that crossover frequency of the current share loop is at least one decade lower than that of the voltage loop so that the interaction between the two loops is eliminated. The crossover frequency of current share loop is approximately 8 kHz. Output Voltage Bleed Resistor The floating high side driver draws bias current from the BOOST pin (3.5mA typical). This current flows out of the IR3505 through the SW pin and will charge up the output capacitor when the control IC is disabled. A bleed resistor connected from the converter output voltage to ground is required to prevent the output voltage from exceeding the control IC Over-Voltage protection threshold. The bleed resistor can be selected using the following equation. RBLEED = VBLEED / (5.8mA x N) (2)
Where VBLEED is the maximum desired output voltage pre-bias and N is the number of IR3505 used in the converter. Optional phases A converter can be designed to support more or less phases. This can be quite useful in situations where the final load current is unknown or where increased load current may be required at some time in the future. Page 13 of 19 Sept 26 , 2007

Figure 7 provides an application circuit that allows adjustment to the number of phases. By populating zero ohm jumpers, or not; the number of phases can be adjusted by diverting the daisy chain timing from a 3505 to the next one in sequence. The effect of more or less phases on converter performance can be tested without actually removing a 3505 or it's MOSFETs from the printed circuit board through use of a pull-up resistor from VCCL to the CSIN+ pin to enable de-bug mode.

LAYOUT GUIDELINES
The following layout guidelines are recommended to reduce the parasitic inductance and resistance of the PCB layout, therefore minimizing the noise coupled to the IC. * Dedicate at least one middle layer for a ground plane, which is then split into signal ground plane (LGND) and power ground plane (PGND). * Separate analog bus (EAIN, DACIN, and ISHARE) from digital bus (CLKIN, PHSIN, and PHSOUT) to reduce the noise coupling. * Connect PGND to LGND pins to their respective ground planes through vias. * Place current sense resistors and capacitors (RCS and CCS) close to phase IC. Use Kelvin connection for the inductor current sense wires, but separate the two wires by ground polygon. The wire from the inductor terminal to CSIN- should not cross over the fast transition nodes, i.e. switching nodes, gate drive outputs and bootstrap nodes. * Place the decoupling capacitor CVCCL as close as possible to the VCCL pin. * Place the phase IC as close as possible to the MOSFETs to reduce the parasitic resistance and inductance of the gate drive paths. * Place the input ceramic capacitors close to the drain of top MOSFET and the source of bottom MOSFET. Use combination of different packages of ceramic capacitors. * There are two switching power loops. One loop includes the input capacitors, top MOSFET, inductor, output capacitors and the load; another loop consists of bottom MOSFET, inductor, output capacitors and the load. Route the switching power paths using wide and short traces or polygons; use multiple vias for connections between layers.

PCB Metal and Component Placement * Lead land width should be equal to nominal part lead width. The minimum lead to lead spacing should be 0.2mm to minimize shorting. * Lead land length should be equal to maximum part lead length + 0.3 mm outboard extension + 0.05mm inboard extension. The outboard extension ensures a large and inspectable toe fillet, and the inboard extension will accommodate any part misalignment and ensure a fillet. * Center pad land length and width should be equal to maximum part pad length and width. However, the minimum metal to metal spacing should be 0.17mm for 2 oz. Copper ( 0.1mm for 1 oz. Copper and 0.23mm for 3 oz. Copper) * Four 0.3mm diameter vias shall be placed in the pad land spaced at 0.85mm, and connected to ground to minimize the noise effect on the IC, and to transfer heat to the PCB

Solder Resist * The solder resist should be pulled away from the metal lead lands by a minimum of 0.06mm. The solder resist mis-alignment is a maximum of 0.05mm and it is recommended that the lead lands are all Non Solder Mask Defined (NSMD). Therefore pulling the S/R 0.06mm will always ensure NSMD pads. * The minimum solder resist width is 0.13mm. * At the inside corner of the solder resist where the lead land groups meet, it is recommended to provide a fillet so a solder resist width of 0.17mm remains. * The land pad should be Solder Mask Defined (SMD), with a minimum overlap of the solder resist onto the copper of 0.06mm to accommodate solder resist mis-alignment. In 0.5mm pitch cases it is allowable to have the solder resist opening for the land pad to be smaller than the part pad. * Ensure that the solder resist in-between the lead lands and the pad land is 0.15mm due to the high aspect ratio of the solder resist strip separating the lead lands from the pad land. * The four vias in the land pad should be tented or plugged from bottom board side with solder resist.

Stencil Design * The stencil apertures for the lead lands should be approximately 80% of the area of the lead lands. Reducing the amount of solder deposited will minimize the occurrence of lead shorts. Since for 0.5mm pitch devices the leads are only 0.25mm wide, the stencil apertures should not be made narrower; openings in stencils < 0.25mm wide are difficult to maintain repeatable solder release. * The stencil lead land apertures should therefore be shortened in length by 80% and centered on the lead land. * The land pad aperture should be approximately 70% area of solder on the center pad. If too much solder is deposited on the center pad the part will float and the lead lands will be open. * The maximum length and width of the land pad stencil aperture should be equal to the solder resist opening minus an annular 0.2mm pull back to decrease the incidence of shorting the center land to the lead lands when the part is pushed into the solder paste.
