Hybrid PMIC for Enterprise Storage and Computing Data Sheet Rev. B, February 2, 2023 Subject to change without notice 27 of 56 www.qorvo.com SYSTEM CONTROL INFORMATION General The ACT86600 PMIC is a high voltage input, single-chip, integrated power management solution. It is ideally suited to power enterprise solid state drives (SSD) and computing power and memory and s torage from 12V input rails. It integrates four high voltage, high power DC/DC, two with 4A outputs and two with 6A outputs. It also has a buck-boost and an always on buck supply. It incorporates seven GPIOs to maximize system level flexibility. Its master controller manages startup sequencing, timing, voltages, slew rates, sleep states, and fault conditions. I 2C configurability allows system level changes without the need for costly PCB changes. It is highly flexible and can be rec onfigured via I 2C for multiple applications without the need for PCB changes. The low external component count and high configurability significantly speeds time to market. Examples of configurable options include output voltage, startup time, slew rate, system level sequencing, switching frequency, sleep modes, operating modes etc. The high voltage step-down regulators use a proprietary control architecture that is based on a constant on-time (COT) topology. It is designed for high efficiency, has programmable switching frequency options, and is suitable for high conversion ratios to support output voltages down to 0.6V. The regulators are optimized for single stage voltage conversion from 12V input power sources. The proprietary architecture allows the regulators to work at near constant frequency at any given operating point. In continuous conduction mode (CCM), the regulators operate at a near ly constant frequency across load. The switching frequency is selec table to allow system optimization and to accommodate a variety of inductor values and sizes. When load current is reduced and the regulators operate in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) , the IC automatically reduces switching frequency to maintain high efficiency. This results in high efficiency across the entire output current range. The quiescent current under no load conditions is minimal and also contributes to the high efficiency achieved under light loads conditions. Buck1 and Buck2 each provide 6A outputs. These two outputs can be operated in parallel to provide a 12A, dual phase output. Buck3 and Buck4 each provide 4A outputs and can be operated in parallel to provide an 8A output. BBST, the buck -boost converter, provides up to 0.6A. BBST can also be configured for buck only operation for lower output voltages. It is optimized for maximum efficiency with a 12V input (unregulated) to a 12V regulated output that is typical in SSD applications. The always-on supply, VCC5, is a buck converter that efficiently generates the ACT86600 internal bias supply from the system input voltage. It can also be used to power additional external circuitry. The ACT86600 contains seven configurable GPIOS available that can be programmed to implement a variety of system functions. They can be programmed to generate interrupts - as an interrupt request pin (nIRQ pin), to control and sequence external regulators, to enable or disable internal regulators, as input lines to control entry or exit from low power states such as SLEEP and deep sleep (DPSLP) modes and other such system related functions. Two of the GPIOs can also function as current sinks to drive LEDS. The GPIOs can also be used to perform dynamic voltage scaling or DVS for the buck regulators. This function allow s the user to scale the output voltage of buck regulators high during normal operation and regulate at a lower voltage to conserve power during SLEEP or DPSLP cases. The ACT86600 master controller monitors all outputs and reports faults via I2C and hardwired status signals. Faults can be masked, and fault levels and responses are configurable via I2C. Many of the ACT86600 pins and functions are configurable. The IC’s default functionality is defined by the default CMI (Code Matrix Index), but much of this functionality can be changed via I2C. The GPIOs can be configured as enable inputs, reset outputs, dynamic voltage (DVS) inputs, LED drivers, etc. The GPIO configuration is specifically defined for each ACT86600 orderable part number. The first part of t he datasheet describes basic IC functionality and default pin functions. The end of the datasheet provides the configuration and functionality specific to each CMI version. Contact Qorvo for additional information about other configurations. I2C Serial Interface To ensure compatibility with a wide range of systems, the ACT86600 uses standard I2C commands. The ACT86600 operates as a slave device and can be factory configured to one of four 7- bit slave addresses. The 7- bit slave address is followed by an eighth bit, which indicates whether the transaction is a read- operation or a write- operation. Refer to each specific CMI for the IC’s slave address.

The I 2C functionality is operational in all states except RESET. I2C commands are communicated using the SCL and SDA pins. SCL is the I2C serial clock input. SDA is the data input and output. SDA is open drain and must have a pull-up resistor. Signals on these pins must meet timing requirements in the Electrical Characteristics Table. The IC implements a special register passcode that enables I2C write transactions. This prevents accidental register changes. Enable I 2C write functionality by writing a value of 0xAAh to register 0x0Ah (Unlock Register Key). Change this register to any other value to prevent accidental changes to the I2C register values. The IC also gives the customer the ability to r ead the CMI version via I 2C. Register 0x19h bits [7:4] contain this info. I2C Registers The ACT86600 contains an array of internal registers that contain the IC’s basic instructions for setting up the IC configuration, output voltages, sequencing, fault thresholds, fault masks, etc. These registers are what give the IC its operating flexibility. The two types of registers are described below. Basic Volatile – These are R/W (Read and Write) and RO (Read only). After the IC is powered, the user can modify the R/W register values to change IC functionality. Changes in functionality include things like masking certain faults. The RO registers communicate IC status such as fault conditions. Any changes to these registers are lost when power is recycled. The default values are fixed and cannot be changed by the factory or the end user. Basic Non-Volatile – These are R/W and RO. After the IC is powered, the user can modify the R/W register values to change IC functionality. Changes in functionality include things l ike output voltage settings, startup delay time, and current limit thresholds. Any changes to these registers are lost when power is recycled. The default values can be modified at the factory to optimize IC functionality for specific applications. Please contact Qorvo for custom options and minimum order quantities. When modifying only certain bits within a register, take care to not inadvertently change other bits. Inadvertently changing register contents can lead to unexpected device behavior. I2C Write Protection The IC implements I 2C write protection to prevent accidental changes to the register settings. Writing the value 0xAAh into to register 0x0Ah unlocks the registers and allows the user to modify the register settings. After completing any r equired configuration changes, write any value other than 0xAA into register 0x0Ah to lock the registers again. Coding Matrix Index (CMI) The ACT86600 contains a CMI configuration that allows tremendous flexibility. The CMI allows the ACT86600 to be configured and optimized for many different systems and applications. The default CMI configuration can be modified via I 2C commands and can therefore be altered by host processor firmware at any time. At system startup, the host processor can access the intern al registers any time after VCC5 is powered up and the IC is in the RESET state. This allows the ACT86600 startup sequence and all other configurable parameters to be modified before the startup sequence begins. This enables tremendous system level flexibility. Firmware intervention or control is not typically necessary in most cases. This is especially true if the default CMI is optimized at the factory for the system. Please contact Qorvo for custom options and minimum order quantities. ENABLE OPERATING MODES The ACT86600 can be factory configured into one of two modes: PWREN and Always -On. Note that these modes are factory configured and cannot be changed by the user. The Ordering Table and the CMI Options section at the end of the datasheet shows the operating mode for each CMI option. Always-On Operating Mode The Always -On operating mode allows the IC to automatically start the turn-on sequence when the AVIN input voltage rises above a specific threshold. Turn on does not require any GPIOs or microprocessor inputs.

Hybrid PMIC for Enterprise Storage and Computing Data Sheet Rev. B, February 2, 2023 Subject to change without notice 29 of 56 www.qorvo.com The outputs automatically turn off when the input voltage drops below the threshold. The AVIN UVLO threshold is set by the AVINMON register bits REG0x0F[2:1]. Table 1: AVIN UVLO Settings AVINMON[2:0] AVIN UVLO Threshold (V) 000 3.0 001 3.2 010 3.4 011 3.6 100 3.8 101 4.0 110 8.0 111 9.0 PWREN Operating Mode The PWREN operating mode requires either GPIO or microprocessor inputs to enable the outputs. If power is applied with PWREN held low, the outputs do not turn on. When PWREN is pulled high, the IC starts the turn on sequencing. If PWREN is pulled up to a l ogic high when input power is applied, the outputs automatically start the turn on sequencing. A typical enable sequence is initiated when power is applied and the PWREN pin is asserted high. After power is applied to the system processor, it then holds PWREN high to keep the IC turned on. The CMI can also be configured to allow the processor to pull another GPIO high to keep the system turned on. After the system is up and running, the processor can pull PWREN low to put the IC into DPSLP mode. As with the power enable sequence, a typical disable sequence is initiated when the user de- asserts the PWREN input to enter DPSLP state. STATE MACHINE Figure 6 shows the internal state machine. The ACT86600 features a variety of control sequences that are optimized for supporting system power up, power down and SLEEP/STANDBY and DPSLP states. The IC has two low power states, SLEEP and DPSLP, which all the user to user configurable low power functionality to optimize system efficiency. The PMIC can be configured for many types of processors. It should also be noted that each of SLEEP or DPSLP states can be configured via I2C to be different every time one of these modes is entered. These offer versatile low power modes that allow the system designer the possibility of emulating several low power mode combinations with a single configurable state of the PMIC. RESET State In the RESET state, the ACT86600 is waiting for the input voltage on AVIN to be within a valid range defined by the AVIN_UV and AVIN_OV thresholds. All regulators are off in RESET. All reset outputs are asserted low. All volatile registers are reset to defaults and Non- Volatile registers are reset to programmed defaults. The IC transitions from RESET to POWER SEQUENCE START when the input voltage enters the valid range. The IC transitions from any other state to RESET if the AVIN voltage exceeds the UV or OV thresholds. The IC also enters this state after seven attempts to restart due to an output voltage fault. It is important to note any transition to RESET returns all volatile and non- volatile registers to their default states. POWER SEQUENCE START State The POWER SEQUENCE START state is a transitional state while the regulators are starting. The IC does not operate in this state. The IC enters this state when it exits the RESET, SLEEP, and DPSLP states. Typical operation is to transition from POWER SEQUENCE to POWER ON. However, the customer can transition directly from POWER SEQ UENCE to either SLEEP or DPSLP by setting the proper conditions to do so. These conditions are described in the SLEEP and DPSLP sections.

Hybrid PMIC for Enterprise Storage and Computing Data Sheet Rev. B, February 2, 2023 Subject to change without notice 34 of 56 www.qorvo.com THERMAL FAULT State The ACT8660 transitions to the THERMAL FAULT State when the IC’s temperature is higher than Thermal shutdown threshold (1 55 Deg). This is also referred to as Over Temperature Shutdown (OTS). This temperature threshold is not adjustable. In this state, all regulators are shut down. There are two control bits that determine the behavior of all the regulators when an over temperature condition occurs. T hese are DIS_OTS and DIS_OTS_VCC5. DIS_OTS controls the behavior of all regulators except the VCC5 output. DIS_OTS_VCC5 only controls the VCC5 regulator. DIS_OTS = 0, DIS_OTS_VCC5 = 0. With these setting, all outputs turn off during an OTS condition. If the loading in VCC5 is high enough to discharge the voltage below the IC’s POR voltage (~2.4V) before the IC restarts, the IC restarts from the RESET State and all I2C registers reset to their default values. If VCC5 does not discharge below ~2.4V before the IC restarts, the I2C registers retain their values. DIS_OTS = 0, DIS_OTS_VCC5 = 1. This is the typical configuration. This setting assumes that there is no external loading on the VCC5 output and the VCC5 output is intended for only powering the PMIC. With these conditions, faults on VCC5 are unlikely. When an overtemperature condition occurs, all regulators (not including VCC5) power off. They turn back on when the OTS condition clears. Note that VC C5 remains on through th is process. This setting assumes that fault conditions (shorted output) on the VCC5 output are unlikely and therefore does not guarantee protection on the VCC5 output during OTS events. There is a current limit circuit that limits the VCC5 current, but VCC5 does not shut down during OTS events. In this configuration, a shorted VCC5 output that could be causing an OTS condition will cause the VCC5 output to continue to remain on through the OTS conditions. DIS_OTS = 1, DIS_OTS_VCC5 = 0. The buck and buck-boost regulators remain on, but VCC5 turns off. When VCC5 shuts down during OTS, t he VCC5 capacitor gets discharged to the undervoltage (POR) level and then an internal pre-regulator turns on to power VCC5 back up again (power cycle VCC5 and the PMIC). The internal pre- regulator has a pull up or charging current limit of 40mA typically and is turned on after the POR level has been reached during discharge of the VCC5 output. DIS_OTS = 1, DIS_OTS_VCC = 1. The IC does not enter OTS and all outputs stay on. If the mini-buck regulator is not used and AVIN is supplied with an external 5V supply, VCC5 i s just a bypassed output from AVIN. DIS_OTS_VCC5 should be set to 1 so VCC5 is not turned off during the OTS. Note that the DIS_OTS and DIS_OTS_VCC5 bits are not user configurable.

Hybrid PMIC for Enterprise Storage and Computing Data Sheet Rev. B, February 2, 2023 Subject to change without notice 35 of 56 www.qorvo.com FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION The ACT86600 is a feature rich IC that provides a lot of system level flexibility. The sections below describe the different IC functions. Sequencing The ACT86600 provides the end user with extremely versatile sequencing capability that can be optimized for many different applications. Each of the five outputs (not including VCC5) has four basic sequencing parameters: input trigger, turn- on delay, turn- off delay, and output voltage. Each of these parameters is controlled via the ICs internal registers. The ACT86600 can use its GPIOs to control external regulators which allows it to seamlessly integrate additional external power supplies into the overall startup sequencing. This allows the PMIC to behave like a single but larger power management system by controlling both internal and external reg ulators. The GPIOs can also managing low power modes such as the SLEEP and DPSLP states which eliminates the need for external logic or microcontrollers that may otherwise be needed for system power management or safety monitoring. The default settings are controlled by the IC’s CMI, which is shown at the end of this datasheet. Contact Qorvo for custom sequencing configurations. Refer to the Qorvo Application Note, AN119, ACT86600 Register Definitions, for full details on the I 2C register map functionality and programming ranges. Input trigger . The input trigger for a regulator is the event that turns that regulator on. Each output can have a separate input trigger. The input trigger can be the internal power ok (POK) signal from one of the other regulators, the internal VIN POK signal, or an external signal applied to a GPIO pin. This flexibility allows a wide range of sequencing possibilities, including having some of the outputs be sequenced with an external power supply or a control signal f rom the host. As an example, if the Buck2 input trigger is Buck1, Buck2 will not turn on until Buck1 is in regulation. Input triggers are defined at the factory and can only be changed with a custom CMI configuration. The GPIOx outputs can be connected to an internal power supply’s POK signal and used to trigger external supplies in the overall sequencing scheme. The GPIOx inputs can also be connected to an external power supply’s power good output and used as an input trigger for an ACT86600 supply. Turn-on Delay. The turn- on delay is the time between an input trigger going active and the output starting to turn on. Each output’s turn-on delay is configured via its I2C bit ON DELAY. Turn-on delays can be changed after the IC is powered on, but they are volatile and reset to the factory defaults when power is recycled. Turn-off Delay. The turn-off delay is the time between an input trigger going inactive and the output starting to turn off. Each output’s turn-off delay is configured via its I2C bit OFF DELAY. Turn-off delays can be changed after the IC is powered on, but they are volatile and reset to the factory defaults when power is recycled. Softstart Time. The softstart time is the time it takes an output to ramp from 5% to 9 5% of its programmed voltage. All HV Buck converters have a fixed 1ms softstart time. The Buck -boost has a fixed 10ms softstart time. The VCC5 output has a fixed 1ms softstart time. Output Voltage. The output voltage is each regulator’s desired voltage. Each output voltage (not includi ng the VCC5 output) is programmed via its I2C bits VSET0 and VSET1. As for buck, the output regulates to VSET0 in ACTIVE mode. Its output can be programmed to regulate to VSET1 in DVS, SLEEP, and DSPSLP modes. Each buck's output voltage can be changed after the IC is powered on, but the new setting is volatile and is reset to the factory defaults when power is recycled. Buck output voltages can be changed on the fly. If a large output voltage change is required, it is best to make multiple smaller changes. This prevents the IC from detecting an instantaneous over or under voltage condition because the fault thresholds are immediately changed, but the output takes time to respond. As for buck-boost, its output can be programmed to VSET0 or VSET1 by the GPIO pin setting before the IC is powered on. After the IC is powered on, the buck-boost can be turned on or off (via its I2C bit "ON" or in SLEEP/DPSLP mode) but cannot be programmed to change its regulation voltage. The buck -boost output voltage cannot be changed between VSET0 and VSET 1. The buck-boost VSET0 and VSET1 values cannot be changed either. The VCC5 output voltage is controlled by the VCC5_SET register. Dynamic Voltage Scaling On-the-fly dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) is available for the four buck regulators. The VCC5 and the buck - boost regulator output s do not have DVS capability. DVS can be implemented with either the I2C interface or a GPIO. DVS allows systems to save power by quickly adjusting the microprocessor performance level when the workload changes. Note that DVS is not a different operating state. DVS is just a different output voltage in while the IC operates in the ACTIVE state. Each buck converter operates at its VOUT0 voltage in normal operation and operates at its VOUT1 voltage when the

Hybrid PMIC for Enterprise Storage and Computing Data Sheet Rev. B, February 2, 2023 Subject to change without notice 36 of 56 www.qorvo.com DVS input trigger is active. DVS can be implemented in four ways. The first method is to individually put each buck converter in DVS by manually writing a new voltage regulation setpoint into its VOUT0 register. The second method implements DVS for all buck converters at one time via a single GPIO input. The IC’s specific CMI determines the specific GPIO used for DVS. This setting can be modified with a custom CMI. The third method implements DVS for all buck converters at one time via I 2C. This function requires EN_DVS_I2C = 1. Then enable DVS via a single I 2C write to one of the three following bits: DVS_FROM_I2C_DB9 DVS_FROM_I2C_DB10 DVS_FROM_I2C_DB11 The specific bit required to enter DVS is determined by each IC’s CMI settings. The fourth method enables DVS when the IC enters the SLEEP state. When GB_SLEEP_CONTROL_DB9 = 1, then any condition that puts the IC into the SLEEP state also puts the IC into DVS mode. For fault free operation, the user must ensure output load conditions plus the current required to charge the output capacitance during a DVS rising voltage condition does not exceed the current limit setting of the regulator. As with any power supply, changing an output voltage too fast can require a current higher than the current limit setting. The user must ensure that the voltage step, slew rate, and load current conditions do not result in an instantaneous loading that results in a current limit condition. Note that the EN_DVS_BY_I2C and GB_SLEEP_CONTROL_DB9 bits are not user configurable. Enable / Disable Control During normal operation, each output may be enabled or disabled via the I2C interface or a GPIO. The specific I2C command or GPIO is CMI specific. Note that disabling a regulator that is used as an input trigger to another regulator may or may not disable the other regulators following it, depending on the specific CMI settings. Contact Qorvo if different functionality is needed. Each output has a load discharge function designed to quickly pull the output voltage to ground when the converter is disabled. The circuit connects an internal resistor (10ohm for Buck1,2,3,4 and 20ohms for the buck -boost) from the output to PGND when the converter is disabled. Input Voltage Monitoring (SYSMON) The ACT86600 monitor s the voltage on the AVIN pin. The AVIN pin can be connected to one of the VINx input pins and the IC will monitor both over voltage and undervoltage conditions . Based on the IC’s configuration, if AVIN reaches the UV or OV thresholds, the IC either shuts down the ACT86600 or asserts the nRESET pin low. The SYSMON function is intended to monitor the system’s input voltage and alert the system when the supply voltage drops below a configurable threshold voltage before but is still above minimum allowable operating voltage. It also detects overvoltage conditions and either shuts down or alerts the system by pulling nRESET low. Fault Protection The ACT86600 contains several levels of fault protection, including the following: Output Overvoltage Output Undervoltage Output Current Limit and short circuit Thermal Warning Thermal Shutdown There are three types of I2C register bits associated with each fault condition: fault flag bits, fault bits, and mask bits. The fault flag bits display the real-time fault status. Their status is valid regardless of the fault mask bit setting. The mask bits either block or allow the fault to affect the fault bit. Each potential fault condition can be masked via I2C if desired. Any unmasked fault condition results in the fault bit going high, which asserts the nIRQ pin. nIRQ is typically active low. The nIRQ pin only de- asserts after the fault condition is no longer present and the corresponding fault bit is read via I 2C. Note that masked faults can still be read in the fault flag bit. Refer to the Qorvo Application Note describing the Register Map for full details on I2C functionality and programming ranges. nIRQ (Interrupt) The interrupt function is typically used to drive the interrupt input of the system processor. Many of the ACT86600's functions support interrupt-generation as a result of various conditions. These are typically masked by default but may be unmasked via the I 2C interface. For more information about the available fault conditions, refer t o the appropriate sections of this datasheet. nIRQ can be triggered from:

Hybrid PMIC for Enterprise Storage and Computing Data Sheet Rev. B, February 2, 2023 Subject to change without notice 37 of 56 www.qorvo.com 1. Die temperature warning 2. Any regulator exceeding peak current limit for 16 cycles after soft start or a UV/OV condition. 3. Input goes above OVP threshold or falls below the UV threshold 4. Watch Dog timer expiring If any of these faults occur the nIRQ output is asserted active low. After nIRQ pin is asserted, an I2C read of the interrupt status registers clears the interrupt provided the interrupting condition is removed. If the interrupting condition is still present, nIRQ stays asserted and the interrupt status bit stays set. The ICs specific CMI determines which GPIOx is used for the nIRQ pin. nIRQ is an open- drain output and should be pulled up to an appropriate supply voltage with a 10kΩ or greater pull-up resistor. nRESET The ACT86600 provides a reset function to issue a master reset to the system CPU/controller. nRESET is immediately asserted low when either the VINx or AVIN voltage is above or below the UV or OV thresholds or any power supply that is connected to the nRESET functionality goes below its Power Good threshold. The input to the nRESET signal is typically tied to all regulators whose outputs are necessary for the system controller and I/O signals to function properly. Configurable register bits in each regulator determine if that regulator’s POK signal controls the nRESET signal. In general, the behavior of the nRESET output is such that the nRESET output is low if any one of the Power Okay (POK) signal s from the controlling regulators is low. In other words, if any one of the controlling regulator outputs is not okay, the nRESET output is asserted low. A regulator’s POK signal can be low (not asserted) when the regulator is enabled and the output is not in regulation. Disabled regulators do not affect the nRESET signal, even if its POK signal is configured to control the nRESET output. This is because, a disabled regulator’s POK signal is disabled and held high. A regulator’s POK signal becomes active low when the regulator is enabled. It stays low during softstart until the output voltage reaches 90% of the target regulation voltage. The ACT86600 generates an internal reset signal, nRESETI. nRESETI is the logical equivalent of the functional “AND” of all the regulator POK signals that are set to control the nRESET output. When a regulator that is tied to the nRESET output is enabled, its POK signal typically goes low for the time between its enable signal going high to the time its output voltage reaches ~90% of the target output voltage. During this time, the nRESETI signal also goes low. On every rising transition of the nRESETI signal, a timer is started to wait for a delay set by the RST_DLY [] control bits. This nRESET delay can be 20, 40, 60 or 100ms . The nRESET output is a de- glitched version of nRESETI. nRESET follows the nRESETI signal on the falling edge but the rising edge is delayed by RST_DLY. nRESET is deasserted high following the reset delay after nRESETI goes high. All regulator outputs that control the nRESET signal must be configured to turn on within the “nRESET delay time” of each other during the power on sequence. This requirement ensures that nRESET has a single low to high transition after a power on sequence. nRESET will then stay asserted for the programmed delay time after the last power supply goes into regulation. The IC’s specific CMI configures which power supplies are connected to the nRESET functionality. The IC’s CMI also programs the specific GPIOx pin used for the reset functionality. EXT_EN The ACT86000 provides an external power supply enable function, EXT_EN. EXT_EN is used to control an external regulator or to provide a control signal to other system components. It is used as part of the sequencing profile and can be programmed to have different input triggers as well as delay times. EXT_EN and EXT_PG allow the IC to fully incorporate one or more external power supplies into the startup sequence. The IC’s CMI programs the specific GPIOx pin used for the EXT_EN functionality. EXT_PG The ACT86600 provides an external power good input function, EXT_PG. This function is used as an input trigger from an external power supply. EXT_PG can be used as the input trigger to turn on ACT86600 power supplies. EXT_EN and EXT_PG allow t he IC to fully incorporate one or more external power supplies into the startup sequence. The IC’s CMI programs the specific GPIOx pin used for the EXT_EN functionality. AVIN UVP and OVP CONTROL The AVIN pin implements both undervoltage and overvoltage detection. When AVIN detects a UV or OV condition, it generates a fault condition and triggers an under-voltage protection (UVP) or over -voltage protection (OVP) function.

B, February 2, 2023 Subject to change without notice 39 of 56 www.qorvo.com Output Voltage Under/Over Voltage The ACT86600 monitors each individual output voltage for under voltage and over voltage conditions. If an output enters an UV/OV fault condition, the IC shuts down all outputs for 100ms and restarts with the programmed power up sequence. If an output is in current limit, it is possible that its voltage can drop below the UV threshold which also shuts down all outputs. If that behavior is not desired, mask the appropriate fault bit. Each output still provides its real -time UV/OV fault status via its fault fl ag, even if the fault is masked. Masking an OV/UV fault just prevents the fault from being reported via the IRQ pin. A UV/OV fault condition pulls the nRESET pin low. Note that the IC’s specific CMI sets the defaults for which regulators mask the UV and OV fault conditions. The under -voltage condition on the output of each regulator is reported via a Power OK or POK signal which is high only when the regulator output is typically within 90% to 110% of the target regulation voltage. The POK signal from each regulator can be used for sequencing other regulators in a programmable order to ensure safe turn on and turn off. It can also be used to drive a GPIO output. Watch-Dog Supervision The ACT86600 features a watchdog supervisory function to reset the system if the host microprocessor locks up. The 8s internal watchdog timer is enabled by setting either of the I2C bits WDSREN [] or WDPCEN [] to 1. WDSREN stands for Watch Dog Soft Reset Enable and WDPCEN stands for Watch Dog Power Cycle Enable. Once enabled, the 8s watchdog timer is reset whenever there is I 2C activity. If no I 2C transaction is detected for 8s, the watchdog timer expires and the PMU either performs a soft -reset or power cycle, depending on whether WDSREN [] or WDPCEN [] bit is set. If the IC performs a soft -reset, it toggles the nRESET pin, but the IC retains the latest programmed I2C settings. If the IC performs a power cycle, all outputs turn off and the IC restarts with the default I 2C register settings. Software-Initiated Power Cycle ACT86600 supports a software-initiated power cycle. This power cycle is initiated by setting the MR [] bit to 1. This power cycle turns off all outputs and transitions the state machine to the RESET State. Note that this resets the MR bit back to 0. Output Current Limit The ACT86600 incorporates a three- level overcurrent protection scheme for the buck converters and a single level scheme for the LDOs. For the buck converters, the overcurrent current threshold refers to the peak switch current. The first protection level is when a buck converter’s peak switch current reaches 80% of the Cycle-by-Cycle current limit threshold for greater than 16 switching cycles. Under this condition, the IC reports the fault via the appropriate fault flag bit. If the fault is unmasked, it asserts the nIRQ pin. The next level is when the current increases to the Cycle- by-Cycle threshold. The buck converter limits the peak switch current in each switching cycle. This reduces the effective duty cycle and causes the output voltage to drop, potentially creating an undervoltage condition. When the overcurrent condition results in an UV condition, and UV is not masked, the IC turns off all supplies for 100ms and restarts. The third level is when the peak switch current reaches 122% of the Cycle-by- Cycle current limit threshold. This immediately shuts down the regulator and waits 14ms before restarting. The overcurrent fault limits for the buck converters are adjustable via I 2C. Overcurrent fault reporting can be masked via I 2C, but the overcurrent limits are always active and will shut down the IC when exceeded. Thermal Warning and Thermal Shutdown The ACT86600 monitors its internal die temperature and reports a warning via nIRQ when the temperature rises above the Thermal Interrupt Threshold of typically 135 deg C. It reports a fault when the temperature rises above the Thermal Shutdown Temperature of typically 155 deg C. A temperature fault shuts down all outputs unless the fault is masked. Both the fault and the warning can be masked via I2C. The temperature warning and fault flags still provide real-time status even if the faults are masked. Masking just prevents the faults from being reported via the nIRQ pin. PIN DESCRIPTIONS Many of the ACT86600 input and out put pins are configurable via CMI configurations. The following descriptions refer to basic pin functions and capabilities. Refer to the CMI Options section in the back of the datasheet for specific pin functionality for each CMI. VINx VINx pins are the de dicated input power to the buck converters. Each buck converter’s input can be connected to a different voltage to optimize system level performance if desired. Each VINx undervoltage threshold is fixed at ~2.9V rising and ~2.7V falling. The

B, February 2, 2023 Subject to change without notice 40 of 56 www.qorvo.com overvoltage thresholds can be independently configured for each regulator’s input source. This is set by the PVIN_OV_OPT register bits. These are not user adjustable. The different OV settings give the ACT86600 very high flexibility to be used in a variety of different configurations. Each buck converter’s VINx must be bypassed directly to its dedicated PGNDx on the top PCB layer with a at least a 10µF capacitor. AVIN AVIN is the power supply to the fixed VCC5 regulator. AVIN should be connected either 5.0V or the highes t available power supply of the chip. Because VCC5 powers the IC and the gate drivers, Connecting AVIN to 5V or higher results in the best overall efficiency. Using a voltage lower than 5V can result in lower than expected efficiency because the lower input voltage does not provide sufficient gate drive strength to fully turn on the internal FETs. Note that AVIN must be connected to a voltage equal to or higher than the highest input voltage on the VINx pins. VBOOTx VBOOTx are the bootstrap pins that provide bias power for the internal FETs. Connect a 22nF or larger capacitor between each VBOOTx pin and its associated SWx pin. VINBB VINBB is the dedicated input power pin for the buck - boost converter. VINBB must be bypassed directly to PGND on the top PCB layer with at least a 10µ F capacitor. SW1/2/3/4/7 SW1/2/3/4 are the switch nodes for the main high voltage, high current buck converters. SW7 is the switch node for the VCC5 buck converter. They connect directly to the buck inductors on the top layer. SW5/6 SW5/6 are the switch nodes for the buck -boost converter. They connect directly to the buck -boost inductor. SW5 switches when the buck -boost operates in buck or buck-boost mode. SW6 switches when the IC operates in boost or buck -boost mode. Both SW5 and SW6 switch when the buck-boost operates in true buck- boost mode. VBBST VBBST is the output voltage of the buck-boost converter. VCC5 The VCC5 pin serves two purposes. When the VCC5 converter operates in buck or LDO mode, the VCC5 pin operates as the feedback voltage and should be Kelvin connected to the output capacitor. When the VCC5 supply is configured for bypass mode, the VCC5 pin is the output voltage from the IC. In both cases, VCC5 is the input power pin that powers the ICs internal circuitry. VFBx The VFBx pins are the feedback pins for the regulators. They should be kelvin connected to the buck output capacitors. VIO VIO is the bias supply input to the IC’s digital circuitry. It powers the GPIO pins. VIO is typically connected to the VINx pins but can be powered from a different voltage rail if desired. VIO should be bypassed to PGND with a 1µF ceramic capacitor. SCL, SDA These are the I 2C clock and data pins to the IC. They have standard I2C functionality. They are open drain and require a pullup resistor. GPIOx The ACT86600 has seven GPIO pins. Each GPIO is programmed for a specific function by the IC’s CMI. The available functions are input triggers for sequencing (EXT_PG), output triggers for sequencing external supplies (EXT_EN), nRESET, nIRQ, DVS input, voltage select pins for the voltage regulators, LED drivers, standard GPIOs, and a comparator. The available GPIO functionality includes digital outputs based on a converter’s internal POK signal, digital inputs to turn converters on or off, sequencing inputs, and digital inputs to enter SLEEP and DPSLP modes. These configurable options allow both a variety of system functions and flexibility of pin functions. It also allows pin functionality changes on-the-fly. GPIO1 can be configured with an internal 200kΩ pullup resistor to VIO or to VCC5. When register 0x10h bit 0 = 0, the pullup resistor is disconnected. When register 0x10h bit 0 = 1, the pullup resistor is connected. When register bit VINIO1_SEL = 0, the pul lup voltage is VIO. When register bit VINIO1_SEL = 1, the pullup voltage is VCC5. GPIO2 through GPIO7 can be configured with an internal 200k Ω pullup resistor to VIO. When the GPIOx’s bit in register 0x10h = 0, the resistor is disconnected. When it = 1, the resistor is connected. The standard GPIO function can be configured for open drain and push-pull outputs.

B, February 2, 2023 Subject to change without notice 42 of 56 www.qorvo.com HIGH VOLTAGE STEP-DOWN DC/DC REGULATORS General Description The ACT86000 contains four fully integrated, high voltage, step-down converters. Buck1/2 are 6A outputs while Buck3/4 are 4A outputs. The buck converters can be operated in parallel to provide higher output currents. They use a proprietary topology based on a Cons tant ON Time (COT) architecture. They are synchronous step-down converters that use a hysteretic constant on- time mode that enables very low quiescent current during stand-by operation. They allow the use of small external components while emulating a cons tant frequency PWM mode regulator during continuous current mode operation under high load current situations. The integrated, low Rdson FETs help achieve greater than 95% efficiency. They are internally compensated, requiring only three small external components (Cin, Cout, Lout) for operation. All regulators are available with a variety of standard and custom output voltages and may be software-controlled via the I2C interface for systems that require advanced power management functions. The ACT86600 buck regulators are highly configurable and can be quickly and easily reconfigured via I2C. This allows them to support changes in hardware requirements without the need for PCB changes. Examples of I2C functionality are given below: Real-time power good, OV, and current limit status Ability to mask individual faults Dynamically change output voltage On/Off control Low power mode Overcurrent thresholds Sequencing order and delay times Refer to the Qorvo Application Note describing the Register Map for full details on I2C functionality and programming ranges. Each HV Buck has a separate input voltage pin, VINx. This allows the user to supply each regulator with a power source of choice and therefore optimize the power demand from each available power source. For example, each HV regulator can be supplied with either a 12.0V or 5.0V power supply (3.0 – 14.4V typical range). Each HV Buck input voltage OV threshold can be independently configured for a 5.8V or a 15V input. This setting is factory configured to 5.8V or 15V and is not user adjustable. Operating Mode By default, the Buck1/2/3/4 regulators operate in a pseudo fixed- frequency PWM mode at medium to heavy loads, then transition to a proprietary power - saving mode at light loads in order to save power and improve efficiency at light loads. To further optimize efficiency and reduce power losses at extremely light loads, an additional lower power mode, LPM, is available. LPM minimizes quiescent current i n between switching cycles. Setting I2C bit EN_LPM = 1 enables LPM mode and reduces the quiescent current by approximately 37 0µA. To minimize load transient drops when going from LPM to full load, the output voltage is increased by 2% in LPM mode. The output voltage ripple increases to approximately 4% of the output voltage. The customer should test both settings in their system and choose the best option to balance power consumption, voltage ripple, and transient response in their system. LPM is enabled when I2C bits EN_LPM = 1. Synchronous Rectification Each HV Buck regulator features an integrated synchronous rectifier (or LS FET), maximizing efficiency and minimizing the total solution size and cost by eliminating the need for external rectifiers. Enable / Disable Control When power is applied to the IC, all converters automatically turn on according to a pre- programmed sequence. O nce in normal operation (ACTIVE state), each converter can be independently disabled via I 2C. Each CMI version requires a different set of commands to disable a converter, so contact the factory for specific instructions if needed. Each converter contains an optional integrated discharge resistor that actively discharges the output capacitor when the regulator is disabled. The discharge function is typically enabled by default. This function is not user selectable. Soft-Start The HV BUCK regulators include a fixed 1ms internal soft-start ramp which limits the rate of change of the output voltage. This time is measured from 5% to 95% of the programmed output voltage. This minimizes input inrush current and ensures that the output powers up in a monotonic manner that is independent of current load on the outputs. This circuitry is effective any time the regulator is enabled, as well as during re- try after responding to a short-circuit or other fault condition

Hybrid PMIC for Enterprise Storage and Computing Data Sheet Rev. B, February 2, 2023 Subject to change without notice 43 of 56 www.qorvo.com Output Voltage Setting The HV Bucks regulate to the voltage defined by their I2C register VSET0 in normal operation and by VSET1 in DVS mode. Each Buck regulator can be programmed to one of two output voltage ranges: Output-Low Range and Output-High Range. Each buck converter’s output range can be programmed independently of the others. Note that the output voltage range should NOT be changed while the output is enabled. Qorvo does not recommend changing the output voltage range from its default setting because its internal voltage reference is only trimmed to its default setting. When the buck converter’s VOUT_OPT bit = 0, that output uses Output -High Range. When VOUT_OPT = 1, that output uses the Output-Low Range. The programming range for Output -High is 0. 6V to 5.26V in 20mV steps. VBUCKx = 0.6V + VSETx * 0.02V Where VSETx is the decimal equivalent of the value in each regulator’s I 2C V SETx register. The V SETx registers contain an unsigned 8- bit binary value. As an example, if Buck 1’s VSET0 register contains 00111100b (60 decimal), the output voltage is 1.8V. Note that the maximum output voltage is 5.26V. If VSETx is programmed higher than 233 decimals , the keeps the programmed value and sets the output voltage to 5.26V. The programming range for Output -Low is 0. 6V to 1.875V in 5mV steps. VBUCKx = 0.6V + VSETx * 0.005V Where VSETx is the decimal equivalent of the value in each regulator’s I 2C V SETx register. The V SETx registers contain an unsigned 8- bit binary value. As an example, if Buck 1’s VOUT0 register contains 11110000b (240 decimal), the output voltage is 1.8V. Qorvo recommends that a buck converter’s output voltage be kept within +/ - 25% of the default output voltage t o maintain accuracy. Voltage changes larger than +/- 25% may require different factory trim settings (new CMI) to maintain accuracy. Duty Cycle Limitations / Minimum On-Time The HV Buck minimum on- time is 50ns. This limits the minimum allowable output voltage. This is a standard limitation for all buck converters with high input voltages and low output voltages. The following equation calculates the maximum allowable switching frequency for a HV Buck design. 𝐹𝐹𝑆𝑆𝑆𝑆_𝑚𝑚𝑚𝑚𝑚𝑚 = 𝑉𝑉𝑉𝑉𝑉𝑉𝑉𝑉𝑚𝑚𝑚𝑚𝑚𝑚 50𝑛𝑛𝑛𝑛 ∗𝑉𝑉𝑉𝑉𝑉𝑉𝑚𝑚𝑚𝑚𝑚𝑚 Where F sw_max is the maximum allowable switching frequency, VOUT min is the minimum required output voltage, and VIN max is the maximum input voltage on VINx. Dynamic Voltage Scaling Each buck converter supports Dynamic Voltage Scaling (DVS). DVS allows the user to optimize the processor’s energy to complete tasks by lowering the processor’s operating frequency and input voltage when lower performance is acceptable. In normal operation, each output regulates to the voltage programmed in the I 2C register VSET0. During DVS, each output regulates to VSET1. When entering and exiting DVS, the IC’s digital logic steps the output setting through each step between the initial and final settings at a rate of 20mV/us in low - output range and 80mV/us in high-output range. During this transition, the regulators’ OV and UV thresholds are ignored to avoid triggering false OV or UV faults. To achieve the fastest transition, the regulator may be temporarily forced into “forced PWM” during the transition. This ensures that the output voltage reaches the new set point as quickly as possible by actively charging or discharging the output capacitor. The IC can be programmed to enter DVS by I 2C, when the IC enters SLEEP mode, or when the IC enters DPSLP mode. Overcurrent and Short Circuit Protection Each buck converter provides overcurrent and short circuit protection with built -in foldback protect ion. Overcurrent protection is achieved with cycle- by-cycle current limiting on both the HS and LS FETs. The HS FET implements peak overcurrent threshold while the LS FET implements valley protection. These thresholds are set by each converter’s ILIM I2C register bits.

The following equation calculates the output voltage ripple as a function of output capacitance. VRIPPLE = ∆𝑉𝑉𝐿𝐿 8 ∗𝐹𝐹𝑆𝑆𝑆𝑆 ∗𝐶𝐶𝑂𝑂𝑂𝑂𝑂𝑂 Where ΔIL is the inductor ripple current, F SW is the switching frequency, and COUT is the output capacitance after taking DC bias into account. Output capacitance affects low power mode behavior and the output capacitor discharge time at turnoff. System level evaluation should be performed to optimize the needed output capacitor value. Two of the most common dielectrics are Y5V and X5R. Whereas Y5V dielectrics are inexpensive and can provide high capacitance in small packages, their capacitance varies greatly ov er their voltage and temperature ranges and are not recommended for DC/DC applications. X5R and X7R dielectrics are more suitable for output capacitor applications. Be sure to consider the capacitor’s DC bias effects and maximum ripple current rating when using capacitors smaller than 0805. POK [] and Output Fault Interrupt Each regulator features an internal Power -OK (POK) output. Each POK output can drive the startup and shutdown sequence of another regulator. It can also drive a GPIO output. The POK out put also drives a status bit that can be read by the system microprocessor via the I2C interface. If an output voltage is lower than the power-OK threshold, typically ~10.0% below the programmed regulation voltage, that regulator’s POK [] bit is set to 0. The POK status bit can be masked if desired. Mask POK by setting the Buck converter’s nFLTMSK [-] bit to 0. When nFLTMSK = 1, the POK fault is not masked. The ACT86600 interrupts the processor when the DC/DC's output voltage falls below the Power-OK (POK) threshold by asserting the nIRQ pin low. nIRQ remains asserted until either the regulator is turned off or the output voltage goes back into regulation and the POK [] bit has been read via I 2C. The POK interrupt is cleared when the POK fault condition is no longer present and the microprocessor performs an I 2C read of the POK register bit. Note that even if the POK fault is no longer present, the POK bit is latched to 0 until after the I2C read is performed. High Current Paralleled Outputs The ACT86600’s allows the HV Bucks to be operated in parallel to provide higher output currents. Buck1/2 can be operated in parallel to provide a single 12A output. Buck3/4 can be paralleled to provide an 8A output. Note that Buck1/2 can be operated in sin gle or dual phase mode independently of the Buck3/4. When operated in parallel, the two converters switch out of phase to minimize ripple currents and noise. The output inductor and capacitor requirements are the same as single phase operation. Note that dual phase operation requires a dedicated CMI. The customer cannot modify register setting to change outputs from single to dual or dual to single phase operation Buck1’s register settings are used for Buck1/2 dual phase operation. Buck3’s register settings are used for Buck3/4 dual phase operation. The PCB considerations for dual phase operation are identical to single phase operation. Dual phase operation is achieved by simply connecting the two output voltages together. Differential remote sensing is an available option with dual phase operation. Differential Remote Sensing Option Differential remote sensing is an available option with dual phase operation. Differential remote sensing al- lows the feedback path to compensate for voltage drops in both the positive and negative current path. Disable differential remote sensing by setting MUL_GNDS_SEL = 0. VFB1, VFB2, VFB3, and VFB4 must all be connected to their output voltages. Enable differential remote sensing by setting MUL_GNDS_SEL = 1. VFB1 and VFB3 must be con- nected to their outputs. VFB2 and VFB4 are the nega- tive sensing input and must be connected to the output capacitor ground pin. The MUL_GNDS_SEL bit is not user configurable. HV Buck PCB Layout Considerations High switching frequencies and large peak currents make PC board layout an important part of step- down DC/DC converter design. A good design minimizes excessive EMI on the feedback paths and voltage gradients in the ground plane, both of which can result in instability or regulation errors. Fol low these layout guidelines when designing the ACT86600 PCB. Refer to the Qorvo ACT86600 Evaluation Kit for a layout example. 1.

Minimize the switch node trace length between each SWx pin and t he inductor. Avoid routing sensitive analog signals near these high frequency, high dV/dt traces. 3. The input capacitor and output capacitor grounds should be connected as close together as possible, with short, direct, and wide traces. 4. Connect the PGNDx ground pins and the AGND ground pin directly to the exposed pad under the IC. The AGND ground plane should be routed separately from the other ground planes and only connect to the main ground plane under the IC at the AGND pin. 5. Connect the VIO input capacitor to the power ground pins. Minimize the distance from this capacitor to VIO, but at a lower priority than the input capacitor placement. 6. Connect each regulator’s VFBx pin to its regulation point through the shortest possible path while keeping sufficient distance from switching nodes to prevent noise injection. Shield the VFBx traces from any noisy traces if they are routed near each other. Do not connect VFBx to the output power plane at the inductor. VFBx must be connected at the farthest output capacitor from the inductor or closer to the load bypass capacitors. 7. Connect the exposed pad directly the top layer ground plane. Connect the top layer ground plane to both internal ground planes and the PCB backside ground plane with thermal vias. Provide ground plane routing on multiple layers that allows the IC’s heat to flow into t he PCB and then spread radially from the IC. Avoid cutting the ground planes and adding vias that restrict the radial flow of heat.

B, February 2, 2023 Subject to change without notice 47 of 56 www.qorvo.com BUCK-BOOST REGULATOR General Description The ACT86600 contains a fully integrated, high voltage, Buck-boost converter. It can be configured for buck - boost mode or buck-only mode. In buck-boost mode, it provides up to 500mA of output current and operates with a 9.6V to 15.95V output voltage range. In buck-only mode, it provides up to 600mA of output current and operates with a 1V to 4.175V output voltage range. It uses a proprietary control architecture to maximize efficiency. The IC operates with current mode control with a factory selectable 562.5kHz or 1125kHz switching frequency. The integrated low Rdson FETs help achieve 95% efficiency. It is internally compensated, requiring only three small external components (Cin, Cout, Lout) for operation. It may be software controlled via I 2C interface. It can be configured in either buck-boost or boost mode. The Buck -boost converter is highly configurable and can be quickly and easily reconfigured via I 2C. This allows it to support changes in hardware requirements without the need for PCB changes. Examples of I 2C functionality are given below: Real-time power good, OV, and current limit status Ability to mask individual faults On/Off control Low power mode Overcurrent thresholds Sequencing order and delay times The Buck -boost has a dedicated input voltage pin, VINBB. This allows the user to supply it with a different power source from the other regulators and therefore optimize the power demand from each available power source. For example, it can be supplied with a 3.3V, 5V, or 12.0V input (3.0 – 14.4V typical range). The Buck- boost input voltage OV threshold can be i ndependently configured to 5.8V or 15V. This setting is factory configured and is not user adjustable. The Buck -boost is ideally suited for optimizing solid state drive (SSD) power solutions. The input voltage to a 12V SSD can vary as much as +/- 20%. However, an SSD’s VPP input rail requires a tightly regulated 12V +/- 3% input voltage. The ACT86660 Buck -boost architecture conditions the unregulated 12V input voltage to provide a tightly regulated 12V output voltage. It does this without the need for addit ional discrete regulators. Operating Modes By default, the Buck-boost regulator operates in a fixed- frequency PWM mode at medium to heavy loads, then transition to a proprietary power -saving mode at light loads in order to save power and improve efficiency at light loads. At light loads, the Buck-boost operates in “burst” or “skip” mode. It automatically skips cycles to minimize switching losses. It enters this mode when the load current drops low enough that the inductor current drops to 0A. This is the t ransition between continuous conduction mode (CCM) and discontinuous conduction mode (DCM). It skips switching cycles as needed to maintain a regulated output voltage when the required duty cycle is less than the minimum on-time. In burst or skip mode, higher efficiency is maintained even at light load conditions by operating the converter and switching only when necessary. The regulator automatically jumps out of skip or burst mode to PWM mode when the load current increases. The Buck-boost has two factory configurable operating modes: buck -boost mode or buck only. Note that the operating mode is set at the factory and is not user adjustable. Buck-boost Mode: In this mode, the output voltage can be either higher or lower than the input voltage. All four internal FETs switch to achieve this functionality. When the Buck -boost input voltage is below the voltage threshold set by I 2C bit BBST_THRESH, the control algorithm reconfigures the regulator into boost -only mode. This reduces power dissipation by fixing tw o FETs and using the other two as a boost converter. When the input voltage is greater than this threshold, the buck portion of the buck-boost (SW5) operates with a fixed duty cycle. The control loop modulates the boost portion (SW6) to regulate the output voltage. The transition between these two modes is seamless and does not require user intervention. In buck-boost mode, the output voltage must be higher than 60% of the input voltage. Buck-only Mode: In this mode, the control algorithm reconfigures the Buck-boost into a buck converter. Two FETs are fixed while the other two operate as a buck converter. This minimizes switching losses and power dissipation. In buck-only mode, the output voltage must be less than 70% of the input voltage. Synchronous Rectification The Buck-boost regulator features four fully integrated FETs.

Output Capacitor Selection The Buck-boost regulator is designed to take advantage of the benefits of ceramic capacitors, namely small size and very-low ESR capacitors. It is designed to operate with 2x22µF capacitors. To ensure stability, ensure that the actual output capacitance is greater than 20 µF. Design for an output ripple voltage less than 1% of the output voltage. The output capacitance can be increased to reduce output voltage ripple and improve load transients if needed. The following equations calculate the output voltage ripple as a function of output capacitance based on operating mode VRIPPLE (Buck-only) = ∆IL 8 ∗FSW ∗COUT VRIPPLE (Boost-only) = IOUT ∗1 − VIN VOUT FSW ∗COUT VRIPPLE (Buck-boost) = IOUT ∗1 −0.7 ∗ VIN VOUT FSW ∗COUT Where ΔIL is the inductor ripple current, F SW is the switching frequency, C OUT is the output capacitance after taking DC bias into account , and I OUT is the load current. Output capacitance affects low power mode behavior and the output capacitor discharge time at t urnoff. System level evaluation should be performed to optimize the needed output capacitor value. A capacitor’s actual capacitance is strongly affected by its DC bias characteristics. The input capacitor is typically an X5R, X7R, or similar dielectric. Us e of Y5V, Z5U, or similar dielectrics is not recommended. Be sure to consider the capacitor’s DC bias effects and maximum ripple current rating when using capacitors smaller than 0805. Input capacitor placement is critical for proper operation. The input capacitor must be placed as close to the IC as possible. The traces from the input pin to the capacitor and from the capacitor to PGND should as short and wide as possible. POK [] and Output Fault Interrupt The Buck -boost regulator features an internal Power - OK (POK) status bit that can be read by the system microprocessor via the I2C interface. It can also drive a GPIO output. The POK output also drives a status bit that can be read by the system microprocessor via the I2C interface. If an outp ut voltage is lower than the power-OK threshold, typically ~10.0% below the programmed regulation voltage, that regulator’s POK [] bit is set to 0. The POK status bit can be masked if desired. Mask POK by setting the nFLTMSK [ -] bit to 0. When nFLTMSK = 1, the POK fault is not masked. The ACT86600 interrupts the processor when the Buck - boost output voltage falls below the Power -OK (POK) threshold asserting the nIRQ pin low. nIRQ remains asserted until either the regulator is turned off or the output voltage goes back into regulation and the POK [] bit has been read via I 2C. The POK interrupt is cleared when the POK fault condition is no longer present and the microprocessor performs an I 2C read of the POK register bit. Note that even if the POK fault is no l onger present, the POK bit is latched to 0 until after the I2C read is performed. Buck-boost PCB Layout Considerations High switching frequencies and large peak currents make PC board layout an important part of step- down DC/DC converter design. A good des ign minimizes excessive EMI on the feedback paths and voltage gradients in the ground plane, both of which can result in instability or regulation errors. Follow these layout guidelines when designing the ACT86600 PCB. Refer to the Qorvo ACT86600 Evaluation Kit for a layout example. 1. Place the Buck -boost input and output capacitors as close as possible to the IC. When operating in Buck -boost mode, both the input and output capacitor placement are critical. In boost-only mode, the output capacitor placement should have higher priority. In buck- only mode, the input capacitor should have higher priority. Connect the input capacitors directly to VINBB and PGND. Connect the output capacitors directly to VBBST and PGND. Do not use vias to route power between the capacitors and the IC. 2. Minimize the switch node trace length between each SWx pin and t he inductor. Avoid routing sensitive analog signals near these high frequency, high dV/dt traces. 3. The input capacitor and output capacitor grounds should be connected as close together as possible, with short, direct, and wide traces.

Connect the PGND ground pin and the AGND ground pin directly to the exposed pad under the IC. The AGND ground plane should be routed separately from the other ground planes and only connect t o the main ground plane under the IC at the AGND pin. 5. Connect the exposed pad directly the top layer ground plane. Connect the top layer ground plane to both internal ground planes and the PCB backside ground plane with thermal vias. Provide ground plane routing on multiple layers that allows the IC’s heat to flow into the PCB and then spread radially from the IC. Avoid cutting the ground planes and adding vias that restrict the radial flow of heat of operating conditions.

VCC5 automatically switches operation between buck and LDO mode to optimize efficiency. It efficiently converts higher input voltages into the lower 5V required for internal biasing and gate drives. It operates from inputs as high as 18V. For 5V systems, it can be configured into bypass mode to directly pass the input voltage to the output.as an LDO. It provides up to 500mA and can be used to power additional system circuitry. It uses a proprietary control architecture to maximize efficiency. The emulated switching frequency is fixed at 2400kHz. The integrated low Rdson FETs help achieve 90% efficiency. It is internally compensated, requiring only three small external components (Cin, Cout, Lout) for operation. VCC5 is designed to optimize solid state drive (SSD) power solutions. A typical 12V system rail must be converted to 5V for biasing the power supply and other circuitry. The buck topology does this efficiently with minimal power loss. This eliminates the need for additional discrete regulators. Because VCC5 powers the PMIC bias circuitry and the internal gate drivers, its input, AVIN, should be powered by an input voltage that is 5V or higher. This ensures that all the ACT86600 power FETs are driven into full enhancement to get the best on- resistance (RDS ON) and highest efficiencies. Operating Modes VCC5 operates in a pseudo fixed- frequency PWM mode at medium to heavy loads, then transition to a proprietary power-saving mode at light loads in order to save power and improve efficiency at light loads. At light loads, it operates in “burst” or “skip” mode. It automatically skips cycles to minimize switching losses. It enters this mode when the load current drops low enough that the inductor current drops to 0A. This is the transition between continuous conduction mode (CCM) and discontinuous conduction mode (DCM). It skips switching cycles as needed to maintain a regulated output voltage when the required duty cycle is less than the minimum on- time. In burst or skip mode, higher efficiency is maintained even at light load conditions by operating the converter and switching only when necessary. The regulator automatically jumps out of skip or burst mode to PWM mode when the load current increases. VCC5 has two factory configurable operating modes: buck mode and bypass mode. Note that the operating mode is set at the factory and is not user adjustable. Buck Mode: In this mode, VCC5 operates as either a buck converter or an LDO. When AVIN is greater than 7V, the control algorithm automatically configures VCC5 into a buck converter. When the input drops below 6.5V, it changes the configuration into an LDO to minimize switching losses. The transition between these two modes is seamless and does not require user intervention. Bypass Mode: In this mode, the buck power FET is fully turned on and passes AVIN directly to the VCC5 output. This mode is intended for applications with an existing 5V input rail. When using bypas s mode, the output inductor is not required. Simply connect the output capacitor directly to VCC5 and leave SW7 floating. Synchronous Rectification VCC5 features two fully integrated FETs. This maximizes efficiency and minimizes the total solution size and cost by eliminating the need for external rectifiers. Enable / Disable Control VCC5 is an always -on rail and automatically turns on when the input voltage rises above the UVLO threshold. Once in normal operation (ACTIVE state), VCC5 cannot be disabled. Soft-Start VCC5 includes a fixed 400µs internal soft -start ramp which limits the rate of change of the output voltage. This time is measured from 0V to 5V. This minimizes input inrush current and ensures that the output powers up in a monotonic manner that is independent of current load on the outputs. This circuitry is effective any time the regulator is enabled, as well as during re- try after responding to a short-circuit or other fault condition. Output Voltage Setting VCC5 has a fixed 5V output. This vol tage is not user adjustable. Overcurrent and Short Circuit Protection VCC5 provides overcurrent and short circuit protection. It provides cycle -by-cycle current limit when in buck mode and current foldback when in LDO mode. If the peak current reaches the programmed threshold, the IC turns off the power FET for that switching cycle. This condition typically results in shutdown due to an UV condition due to the shortened switching cycle. When VCC5 voltage less than 2.6V the VCC5 regulator automatically switc h to LDO mode with current limit foldback to 50mA typical to provide further protection. If VCC5 starts up with output voltage lower than 2.6V, it

Hybrid PMIC for Enterprise Storage and Computing Data Sheet Rev. B, February 2, 2023 Subject to change without notice 53 of 56 www.qorvo.com can only go up with maximum 50mA load current. After start-up, more load (up to “Maximum Output Current”) can be added. This is the most common case. If VCC5 starts up with output voltage higher than 2.6V ( in case of starting up with pre-bias), it can go up with more than 50mA load current. Compensation VCC5 utilizes a proprietary internal compensati on scheme to simultaneously simplify external component selection while optimizing transient performance over their full operating range. No external compensation de- sign is required. Simply follow a few simple guidelines described below when choosing the output capacitor and inductor. Input Capacitor Selection The input requires a high quality, low -ESR, ceramic input capacitor. VCC5 can be connected to the same or a different voltage rail from the other converters. Even if it is connected to the same voltage rail, it must have a dedicated input capacitor. A 10µF capacitor is typically suitable, but this value can be increased without limit. Smaller capacitor values can be used with lighter output loads. Choose the input capacitor value to keep the input voltage ripple less than 50mV. When in buck-mode, the following equation calculates the input ripple. Vripple = 𝑉𝑉𝐼𝐼𝐼𝐼𝐼𝐼 ∗ 𝑉𝑉𝐼𝐼𝐼𝐼𝐼𝐼 𝑉𝑉𝑉𝑉𝑛𝑛 ∗1 −𝑉𝑉𝐼𝐼𝐼𝐼𝐼𝐼 𝑉𝑉𝑉𝑉𝑛𝑛 𝐹𝐹𝑛𝑛𝐹𝐹 ∗𝐶𝐶𝑉𝑉𝑛𝑛 Be sure to consider the capacitor’s DC bias effects and maximum ripple current rating when using capacitors smaller than 0805. A capacitor’s actual capacitance is strongly affected by its DC bias characteristics. The input capacitor is typically an X5R, X7R, or similar dielectric. Use of Y5V, Z5U, or similar dielectrics is not recommended. Input capacitor placement is critical for proper operation. The input capacitor must be placed as close to the IC as possible. The traces from AVIN to the capacitor and from the capacitor to PGND should as short and wide as possible. Inductor Selection VCC5 uses a proprietary internal compensation scheme to simultaneously simplify external component selection and optimize transient performance over its full operating range. It requires a 1µH inductor. Choose inductors with a low DC -resistance, or DCR, for higher efficiency and avoid inductor saturation by choosing inductors with DC ratings that exceed the maximum inductor peak current by at least 30%. Additionally, the inductor peak -to-peak current ripple must be carefully considered along with the selected switching frequency before selecting appropriate inductor values with adequate current rating. The following equation calculates the inductor ripple current. ∆𝑉𝑉𝐿𝐿 = 1 −𝑉𝑉𝑂𝑂𝑂𝑂𝑂𝑂 𝑉𝑉𝐼𝐼𝐼𝐼 ∗ 𝑉𝑉𝑂𝑂𝑂𝑂𝑂𝑂 𝐹𝐹𝑆𝑆𝑆𝑆 ∗𝐿𝐿 Where VOUT is the output voltage, VIN is the input voltage, FSW is the switching frequency, and L is the inductor value. Output Capacitor Selection VCC5 is designed to take advantage of the benefits of ceramic capacitors, namely small size and very -low ESR capacitors. It is designed to operate with greater than 10µF of capacitance. To ensure stability, ensure that the actual output capacitance is greater than 10µF. Design for an output ripple voltage less than 1% of the output voltage. The output capacitance can be increased to reduce output voltage ripple and improve load transients if needed. The following equation calculate the output voltage ripple VRIPPLE = ∆𝑉𝑉𝐿𝐿 8 ∗𝐹𝐹𝑆𝑆𝑆𝑆 ∗𝐶𝐶𝑂𝑂𝑂𝑂𝑂𝑂 Where ΔIL is the inductor ripple current, F SW is the switching frequency, and COUT is the output capacitance after taking DC bias into account. The 10µF capacitor is the output capacitor of the buck topology. Note that an additional 0.22µF must be connected directly to the VCC5 pin. This capacitor is a high frequency bypass capacitor that minimizes noise entering the IC. Two of the most common dielectrics are Y5V and X5R. Whereas Y5V dielectrics are inexpensive and can provide high capacitance in small packages, their capacitance varies greatly over their voltage and temperature ranges and are not recommended for DC/DC applications. X5R and X7R dielectrics are more suitable for output capacitor applications. Be sure to consider the capacitor’s DC bias effects and maximum ripple current rating when using capacitors smaller than 0805.
