Description

The FAN5094 is a synchronous multi-phase DC-DC controller IC which provides a highly accurate, programmable output voltage for all high-performance processors. Two interleaved synchronous buck regulator phases with built-in current sharing operate 180 out of phase to provide the fast transient response needed to satisfy high current applications while minimizing external components. FAN5094s can be paralleled while maintaining both frequency and phase synchronization and ensuring current sharing in a high-power system. The FAN5094 features remote voltage sensing, Programmable Active Droop and advanced response for optimal converter transient response with minimum output capacitance. It has integrated high-current gate drivers with adaptive delay gate switching, eliminating the need for external drive devices. These make it possible to create power supplies running at a switching frequency as high as 4MHz, for ultra-high density. The FAN5094 uses a 5-bit D/A converter to program the output voltage from 1.100V to 1.850V in 25mV steps with an accuracy of 0.5%. The FAN5094 uses a high level of integration to deliver load currents in excess of 150A from a 12V source with minimal external circuitry. The FAN5094 also offers integrated functions including Power Good, Output Enable/Soft Start, under-voltage lockout, over- voltage protection, and current limiting with independent current sense on each phase. It is available in a 28-pin TSSOP package. Block Diagram +12V +12V +12V +12V FAN5094 VFB Processor PHASE CLK ISHR FAN5094 VFB PHASE CLK ISHR VFB FAN5094 Multi-Phase Interleaved Buck Converter

Application Information

The FAN5094 is a programmable synchronous multi-phase DC-DC controller IC. When designed around the appropriate external components, the FAN5094 can be configured to deliver more than 100A of output current, as appropriate for the new generation of high-current processors. The FAN5094 functions as a fixed frequency PWM step down regulator, with a high efficiency mode (E*) at light load. Main Control Loop Refer to the FAN5094 Block Diagram on page 7. The FAN5094 consists of two interleaved synchronous buck con- verters, implemented with summing-mode control. Each phase has its own current feedback, and there is a common voltage feedback. The two buck converters controlled by the FAN5094 are interleaved, that is, they run 180° out of phase with each other. This minimizes the RMS input ripple current, mini- mizing the number of input capacitors required. It also doubles the effective switching frequency, improving transient response. The FAN5094 implements “summing mode control”, which is different from both classical voltage-mode and current- mode control. It provides superior performance to either by allowing a large converter bandwidth over a wide range of output loads and external components. The control loop of the regulator contains two main sections: the analog control block and the digital control block. The analog section consists of signal conditioning amplifiers feeding into a comparator which provides the input to the digital control block. The signal conditioning section accepts inputs from a current sensor and a voltage sensor, with the voltage sensor being common to both phases, and the current sensor separate for each. The voltage sensor amplifies the difference between the VFB signal and the reference voltage from the DAC and presents the output to each of the two comparators. The current control path for each phase takes the difference between its PGND and SW pins when the low-side MOSFET is on, reproducing the voltage across the MOSFET and thus the input current; it presents the resulting signal to the same input of its summing amplifier, adding its signal to the voltage amplifier’s with a certain gain. These two signals are thus summed together. This sum is then pre- sented to a comparator looking at the oscillator ramp, which provides the main PWM control signal to the digital control block. The oscillator ramps are 180° out of phase with each other, so that the two phases are on alternately. The digital control block takes the analog comparator input to provide the appropriate pulses to the HDRV and LDRV output pins for each phase. These outputs control the exter- nal power MOSFETs. Remote Voltage Sense The FAN5094 has true remote voltage sense capability, elim- inating errors due to trace resistance. To utilize remote sense, the VFB and AGND pins should be connected as a Kelvin trace pair to the point of regulation, such as the processor pins. The converter will maintain the voltage in regulation at that point. Care is required in layout of these grounds; see the layout guidelines in this datasheet. High Current Output Drivers The FAN5094 contains four high current output drivers that utilize MOSFETs in a push-pull configuration. The drivers for the high-side MOSFETs use the BOOT pin for input power and the SW pin for return. The drivers for the low-side MOSFETs use the VCC pin for input power and the PGND pin for return. Typically, the BOOT pin will use a charge pump as shown in Figures 1–2. Note that the BOOT and VCC pins are separated from the chip’s internal power and ground, BYPASS and AGND, for switching noise immunity. Adaptive Delay Gate Drive The FAN5094 embodies an advanced design that ensures minimum MOSFET transition times while eliminating shoot-through current. It senses the state of the MOSFETs and adjusts the gate drive adaptively to ensure that they are never on simultaneously. When the high-side MOSFET turns off, the voltage on its source begins to fall. When the voltage there reaches approximately 2.5V , the low-side MOSFETs gate drive is applied with approximately 50nsec delay. When the low-side MOSFET turns off, the voltage at the LDRV pin is sensed. When it drops below approximately 2V , the high- side MOSFET’s gate drive is applied. Maximum Duty Cycle In order to ensure that the current-sensing and charge- pumping work, the FAN5094 guarantees that the low-side MOSFET will be on a certain portion of each period. For low frequencies, this occurs as a maximum duty cycle of approxi- mately 90%. Thus at 500KHz, with a period of 2µsec, the low-side will be on at least 2µsec • 10% = 200nsec. At higher frequencies, this time might fall so low as to be ineffective. The FAN5094 guarantees a minimum low-side on-time of approximately 330nsec, regardless of what duty cycle this corresponds to. Current Sensing The FAN5094 has two independent current sensors, one for each phase. Current sensing is accomplished by measuring the source-to-drain voltage of the low-side MOSFET during its on-time. Each phase has its own power ground pin, to per- mit the phases to be placed in different locations without affecting measurement accuracy. For best results, it is impor- tant to connect the PGND and SW pins for each phase as a Kelvin trace pair directly to the source and drain, respec-

PRODUCT SPECIFICATION FAN5094 REV. 1.0.2 5/13/02 17 Output Enable/Soft Start (ENABLE/SS) The FAN5094 will accept an open collector/TTL signal for controlling the output voltage. The low state disables the output voltage. When disabled, the PWRGD output is in the low state. Even if an enable is not required in the circuit, this pin should have attached a capacitor (typically 100nF) to soft- start the switching. A softstart capacitor may be approxi- mately chosen by the formula: However, C must be ≥ 100nF. Oscillator The FAN5094 oscillator section runs at a frequency deter- mined by a resistor from the RT pin to ground according to the formula The oscillator generates two square waves, 180° out of phase with each other. One is used internally, the other is sent to a second FAN5094 on the CLK pin. The square wave generates two internal sawtooth ramps, each at one-half the square wave frequency, and running 180° out of phase with each other. These ramps cause the turn-on time of the two phases to be phased apart and the four phases to be 90° apart each. The oscillator frequency of the FAN5094 can be programmed from 400KHz to 4MHz with each phase running at 100KHz to 1MHz, respectively. Selection of a frequency will depend on various system performance criteria, with higher frequency resulting in smaller components but lower efficiency. Programmable Active Droop™ The FAN5094 features Programmable Active Droop™: as the output current increases, the output voltage drops propor- tionately an amount that can be programmed with an exter- nal resistor. This feature is offered in order to allow maximum headroom for transient response of the converter. The current is sensed losslessly by measuring the voltage across the low-side MOSFET during its on time. Consult the section on current sensing for details. Note that this method makes the droop dependent on the temperature and initial tolerance of the MOSFET, and the droop must be calculated taking account of these tolerances. Given a maximum load current, the amount of droop can be programmed with a resistor to ground on the droop pin, according to the formula with V Droop the desired droop voltage, RT the oscillator resistor, Imax the load current at which the droop is desired, n the number of phases, and RDS, on the on-state resistance of one phase’s low-side MOSFET. Typical response time of the FAN5094 to an output voltage change is 100nsec. Important Note! The oscillator frequency must be selected before selecting the droop resistor, because the value of RT is used in the calculation of R Droop. Over-Voltage Protection The FAN5094 constantly monitors the output voltage for protection against over-voltage conditions. If the voltage at the VFB pin exceeds 2.2V , an over-voltage condition is assumed and the FAN5094 latches on the external low-side MOSFET and latches off the high-side MOSFET. The DC-DC converter returns to normal operation only after V CC has been recycled. Thermal Design Considerations Because of the very large gate capacitances that the FAN5094 may be driving, the IC may dissipate substantial power. It is important to provide a path for the IC’s heat to be removed, to avoid overheating. In practice, this means that each of the pins should be connected to as large a trace as possible. Use of the heavier weights of copper on the PCB is also desirable. Since the MOSFETs also generate a lot of heat, efforts should be made to thermally isolate them from the IC. Over Temperature Protection If the FAN5094 die temperature exceeds approximately 150°C, the IC shuts itself off. It remains off until the temper- ature has dropped approximately 25°C, at which time it resumes normal operation. Component Selection MOSFET Selection This application requires N-channel Enhancement Mode Field Effect Transistors. Desired characteristics are as follows:

  • Low Drain-Source On-Resistance, DS,ON < 10mΩ (lower is better);
  • Power package with low Thermal Resistance;
  • Drain-Source voltage rating > 15V;
  • Low gate charge, especially for higher frequency operation. For the low-side MOSFET, the on-resistance (R DS,ON) is the primary parameter for selection. Because of the small duty cycle of the high-side, the on-resistance determines the power dissipation in the low-side MOSFET and therefore significantly affects the efficiency of the DC-DC converter. For high current applications, it may be necessary to use two MOSFETs in parallel for the low-side for each phase. C t1 0 µA• RT Ω() 50 10• 9 RDroop Ω() 2n• V• Droop RT•

FAN5094 PRODUCT SPECIFICATION 20 REV. 1.0.2 5/13/02 PCB Layout Guidelines

  • Placement of the MOSFETs relative to the FAN5094 is critical. Place the MOSFETs such that the trace length of the HIDRV and LODRV pins of the FAN5094 to the FET gates is minimized. A long lead length on these pins will cause high amounts of ringing due to the inductance of the trace and the gate capacitance of the FET. This noise radiates throughout the board, and, because it is switching at such a high voltage and frequency, it is very difficult to suppress.
  • In general, all of the noisy switching lines should be kept away from the quiet analog section of the FAN5094. That is, traces that connect to pins 9-20 (LDRV , HDRV , GND and BOOT) should be kept far away from the traces that connect to pins 1 through 8, and pins 21-28.
  • Place the 0.1µF decoupling capacitors as close to the FAN5094 pins as possible. Extra lead length on these reduces their ability to suppress noise.
  • Each power and ground pin should have its own via to the appropriate plane. This helps provide isolation between pins.
  • Place the MOSFETs, inductor, and Schottky of a given phase as close together as possible for the same reasons as in the first bullet above. Place the input bulk capacitors as close to the drains of the high side MOSFETs as possible. In addition, placement of a 0.1µF decoupling cap right on the drain of each high side MOSFET helps to suppress some of the high frequency switching noise on the input of the DC-DC converter.
  • Place the output bulk capacitors as close to the CPU as possible to optimize their ability to supply instantaneous current to the load in the event of a current transient. Additional space between the output capacitors and the CPU will allow the parasitic resistance of the board traces to degrade the DC-DC converter’s performance under severe load transient conditions, causing higher voltage deviation. For more detailed information regarding capacitor placement, refer to Application Bulletin AB-5.
