DESCRIPTION

The CHL8318-20 is an 8-phase digital synchronous buck controller for core regulation of high-performance Intel® VR11.1 and VR11.0 platforms. The CHL8318-20 is fully compliant with VR11.1 including Power Status Indicator (PSI) and for improved light load efficiency and accurate current output (IMON). The IR CHL8318-20 includes a customized set of digital over-clocking features which require no external components. Gaming applications can use the SMBus interface to place the VRD into “Gamer Mode” to extend VID up to 2.3V with 6.25 mV resolution. The CHL8318-20 deploys a number of efficiency shaping features such as variable MOSFET gate drive versus load, programmable PSI modes for optimum light-load along with programmable phase shedding to autonomously add/drop phases versus load. CHL8318-20 supports three NTC temperature sensors to report temperature and trigger VR HOT and OTP faults. Digital thermal balancing allows proportional current imbalance between phases. The CHL8318-20 provides extensive OVP, UVP, OCP and OTP fault protection. Device and fault configuration parameters are easily defined using the IR Power Designer GUI and stored in on-chip non-volatile memory (NVM). The 3-pin SMBus interface can be used to monitor a variety of operating parameters on up to seven CHL8318-20 based VRs. The controller includes a unique sensorless and lossless input current monitoring capability.
