iP1202 Power Block
Description
The iP1202 is a fully optimized solution for medium current synchronous buck applications requiring up to 15A
or 30A. The iP1202 is optimized for 2 phase single output applications up to 30A or dual output, each up to
15A with interleaved input. It includes full function PWM control, with optimized power semiconductor chip-sets
and associated passives, achieving high power density. Very few external components are required to create
a complete synchronous buck power supply.
iPOWIR technology offers designers an innovative space-saving solution for applications requiring high power
densities. iPOWIR technology eases design for applications where component integration offers benefits in
performance and functionality. iPOWIR technology solutions are also optimized internally for layout, heat
transfer and component selection.

* Although, all of the difficult PCB layout and bypassing issues have been addressed with the internal design of the iPOWIR block, proper layout techniques
should be applied for the design of the power supply board. The iPOWIR block will function normally, but not optimally without any additional input decoupling
capacitors. Input decoupling capacitors should be added at Vin pin for stable and reliable long term operation. See layout guidelines in datasheet for more
detailed information.

Applying the Safe Operating Area (SOA) Curve
The SOA graph incorporates power loss and thermal resistance information in a way that allows one to solve for maximum
current capability in a simplified graphical manner. It incorporates the ability to solve thermal problems where heat is drawn

Output Current (A)
1) Draw a line from Case Temp axis at TCASE to the PCB
Temp axis at TPCB.
2) Draw a vertical line from the TX axis intercept to the SOA
curve. (see AN-1047 for further explanation of TX )
3) Draw a horizontal line from the intersection of the vertical
line with the SOA curve to the Y axis. The point at which
the horizontal line meets the y-axis is the SOA current.
4) If no top sided heatsinking is available, assume TCASE
temperature of 125°C for worst case performance.

Adjusting the Power Loss and SOA curves for different operating conditions
To make adjustments to the power loss curves in Fig. 2, multiply the normalized value obtained from the curves in Figs. 4,
5, 6 or 7 by the value indicated on the power loss curve in Fig. 2. Remember that the power loss in Fig 2. is the power loss
for 2 outputs operating with the same output voltage. If differing output voltages are used the initial power loss for each
channel needs to be divided by 2. Then if multiple adjustments are required, multiply all of the normalized values together,
then multiply that product by the value indicated on the power loss curve in Fig. 2. The resulting product is the final power
loss based on all factors. See example no. 1.
To make adjustments to the SOA curve in Fig. 3, determine your maximum PCB Temp & Case Temp at the maximum
operating current of each iP1202. Then, add the correction temperature from the normalized curves in Figs. 4, 5, 6 or 7 to
the TX axis intercept (see procedure no. 2 above) in Fig. 3. When multiple adjustments are required, add all of the temperatures
together, then add the sum to the TX axis intercept in Fig. 3. See example no. 2.
Operating Conditions for the following examples:
Output1
Output2
Output Current = 12A
Output Voltage = 1.2V
Input Voltage = 8V
Sw Freq= 300kHz
Inductor = 1.75µH
Output Current = 10A
Output Voltage = 3.3V
Input Voltage =8V
Sw Freq= 300kHz
Inductor = 1.75µH
Example 1) Adjusting for Maximum Power Loss:
Output1 (Fig. 2) Maximum power loss = W 8.25/2 = 4.125W
(Fig. 4) Normalized power loss for input voltage ≈ 0.93
(Fig. 5) Normalized power loss for output voltage ≈ 0.98
(Fig. 6) Normalized power loss for frequency ≈ 1.0
(Fig. 7) Normalized power loss for inductor value ≈ 0.98
Adjusted Power Loss = 4.125 x 0.93 x 0.98 x 1.0 x 0.98 ≈ 3.7W

Maximum power loss =6.4W /2 = 3.2W
Normalized power loss for input voltage ≈ 0.93
Normalized power loss for output voltage ≈ 1.075
Normalized power loss for frequency ≈ 1.0
Normalized power loss for inductor value ≈ 0.98
Adjusted Power Loss = 3.2W x 0.93 x 1.075 x 1.0 x 0.98 ≈ 3.13W
Total device power loss = 3.7W + 3.13W ≈ 6.8W
Example 2) Adjusting for SOA Temperature:
Assuming TCASE = 110°C & TPCB = 90°C for both outputs
Output1 (Fig. 4) Normalized SOA Temperature for input voltage ≈ -2.3°C
(Fig. 5) Normalized SOA Temperature for output voltage ≈ -0.6°C
(Fig. 6) Normalized SOA Temperature for frequency ≈ 0°C
(Fig. 7) Normalized SOA Temperature for inductor value ≈−0.7°C
TX axis intercept temp adjustment = -2.3°C - 0.6°C + 1.9°C - 0.7°C ≈ -3.6°C
The following example shows how the SOA current is adjusted for a TX change of -3.6°C and output 1 is in SOA

iP1202
iP1202 User’s Design Guidelines
The iP1202 can be configured as a dual channel 15A
or parallel single 30A power block consisting of optimized power semiconductors, PWM control and its
associated passive components. It is based on a synchronous buck topology and offers an optimized solution where space, efficiency and noise caused by
parasitics are of concern. The phase shifted, two output power block operates with fixed frequency voltage mode control and can be configured to operate
as a dual output or paralleled single output with current sharing. The iP1202 components are integrated
in a ball grid array (BGA) package.
This threshold voltage should be taken into consideration when designing sequencing profiles using
the iP1202 as it will effect start-up delays and ramptimes.
For proper implementation of sequencing of outputs
using the iP1202, refer to IR Application Note AN1053 - Power sequencing techniques using iP1201
and iP1202.

The input operating voltage range of the iP1202 is
5.5V to 13.2V. Both channels of the power block have
a common input.

Enabling the Outputs
The ENABLE pin turns on and turns off both outputs
of the iP1202 simultaneously. The iP1202 outputs will
be turned off by floating the ENABLE pin. ENABLE
low will start the outputs. The converter can also be
shutdown by pulling the soft-start pins to PGND
through a logic level MOSFET the drain of which connects to the soft start pin (see Fig.12). This feature
can be useful if sequencing or different start-up timing of the outputs are required. In situations where
the output has undergone a latched shutdown due to
overvoltage or overcurrent, cycling ENABLE will reset the outputs. Cycling soft start pins will not unlatch
the outputs.

Fig. 13: Power Up Threshold
Dual Soft Start
Mode of Operation
The Soft Start function provides a controlled rise of
the output voltage, thus limiting the inrush current
during start-up. The iP1202 provides two independent soft start functions. The soft start pins can be
connected to the soft start capacitors to provide different start-up and sequencing profiles.
Each soft start function has an internal 25uA +/-20%
current source that charges the external soft start
capacitor Css up to 3V. During power-up, the output
voltage starts ramping up only after the charging
voltage across the C ss capacitor has reached a
0.8Vtyp threshold, as shown in Fig. 13.
The iP1202 can be configured to provide either two
independent dual outputs or single paralleled output
with current share. In dual output mode, the two error
amplifiers of the PWM controller operate independently. Each output voltage of the iP1202 block is
controlled by its own error amplifier. The output of
the error amplifier and the internally generated ramp
signal are compared to produce PWM pulses of fixed
frequency that drive the internal power switches. In
this mode, the VP-ref pin must be connected to Vref
pin. Vref pin is the internally generated 0.8V reference input of first error amplifier . Refer to the internal block diagram of the iP1202 in Fig.1.
12
www.irf.com
iP1202
In single output mode, one error amplifier controls
the output voltage and the other amplifier monitors
the inductor current information for current sharing.
In this mode, VP-ref pin must be disconnected from
Vref pin and connected to the output of channel1
inductor, see Fig. 15. The inductor current information is provided through external shunts placed in
series with the output inductors.
A lossless inductor current sensing scheme can also
be implemented as shown in Fig.16, where the current is sensed through the DC resistance of the inductor. In this case RL and CL are selected such that
RLx CL = L / Rdc. Set RL = 1K and solve for CL. Rdc is
the internal DC resistance of inductor L.
In single output two phase mode, leave SS2 pin
open.
The iP1202 can also be configured in dual output
tracking mode where the second output tracks the
first output.
For a specific output configuration, follow the connection diagram shown in Fig.14, Fig.15, Fig.16 at
the end of this section.
Out of Phase Operation
The dual output PWM controller inside the iP1202
provides a 180° out of phase operation of the PWM
outputs. This method of control offers the advantage
of reducing the amount of input bypass capacitors
due to increase in input ripple frequency and hence
reduction of ripple amplitude. Moreover, for paralleled
output configurations 180° phase shifting contributes
to smaller output capacitors due to output inductor
ripple current cancellation and ripple reduction.
Frequency and Synchronization
The operating switching frequency (fSW) range of
iP1202 is 200 kHz to 400 kHz. The desired frequency
is set by placing an external resistor to the RT pin of
the iP1202. See Fig. 9 for the proper resistor value.
The iP1202 is capable of accepting an external digital synchronization signal. Synchronization will be
enabled by the rising edge clock. The free running
oscillator frequency is twice the per-channel frequency. During synchronization, RT is selected such
that the free running frequency is 20% below the
synchronization frequency. The maximum synchronization frequency that iP1202 can accept is 800kHz.
Note that the actual free running frequency of individual output is half the synchronization frequency.
www.irf.com
Synchronization capability is provided both in independent and parallel configurations. When unused,
the SYNC pin must be left floating.
Overcurrent Protection/Autorestart
The Overcurrent Protection function of the iP1202
offers two distinct modes: HICCUP of the output and
Overcurrent Shutdown. If the Hiccup pin is pulled
high (Hiccup enabled), hiccup mode will be selected.
If Hiccup pin is pulled low (Hiccup dis- abled),
overcurrent shutdown will be selected.
During overloads, in HICCUP disabled mode, the
controller shuts down as soon as the trip threshold
is reached. In HICCUP enabled mode, when
overcurrent trip threshold is reached, the power supply output shuts down and attempts to restart. The
time duration between the shutdown of the output
and the restart is determined by the time it takes to
discharge the soft start capacitor. Typically, the discharge time of the soft start capacitor is 10 times the
charge time. The duty cycle of the hiccup
process is typically 5%. The output will stay in hiccup indefinitely until the overload is removed. The
typical overcurrent trip threshold of the device is
internally set at 30A. The overcurrent shutdown / HICCUP threshold is ±30% accurate.
The iP1202 overcurrent shutdown and HICCUP
threshold can be set externally by adding ROCSET1 and
ROCSET2 resistors from OCSET1 and OCSET2 pins to
VSW1 and VSW2 pins respectively. Refer to Fig.8
for ROCSET1 and ROCSET2 selection.
Overvoltage Protection (OVP)
Overvoltage is sensed through separate output voltage sense pins FB1s and FB2s. A separate OVP
circuit is provided for each output and the OVP
threshold is set to 115% of the output voltage. Upon
overvoltage condition of either one of the outputs,
the OVP forces a latched shutdown on both outputs.
In this mode, the upper FETs turn off and the lower
FETs turn on, thus crowbaring the outputs. Reset is
performed by recycling the ENABLE pin. Overvoltage can be sensed by either connecting FB1s and
FB2s to their corresponding outputs through separate output voltage divider resistor networks, or they
can be connected directly to their corrsponding feedback pins FB1 and FB2. For Type III control loop
compensation, FB1s and FB2s should be connected
through voltage dividers only.

PGOOD
This is an output voltage status signal that is open
collector and is pulled low when the output voltage
falls below 85% of the output voltage. High state indicates that outputs are in regulation. There is only
one PGOOD for both outputs. The PGOOD pin can
be left floating if not used.

iP1202 Design Procedure
Only a few external components are required to complete a dual output synchronous buck power supply
using iP1202. The following procedure will guide the
designer through the design and selection process
of these external components.
A typical application for iP1202 will be:
VIN = 12V, VOUT1 = 1.5V, IOUT1 = 15A, VOUT2 = 2.5V, IOUT2
= 10A, fsw = 300kHz, Vp-p1 = Vp-p2 = 50mV
Setting the Output Voltage
The output voltage of the iP1202 is set by the 0.8V
reference Vref and external voltage dividers.
Vout1
R9
FB1
R7
ence source to VP-ref. In this case, to ensure proper
start-up, power to VP-ref and iP1202 must be applied simultaneuosly.
Setting the Overvoltage Trip
Both outputs of the iP1202 will shut down if either
one of the outputs experiences a voltage in the range
of 115% of VOUT. The overvoltage sense pins FB1s
and FB2s are connected to the output through voltage dividers, R13 and R14 (Fig. 17), and the trip
setpoints are programmed according to equation (1).
Separate overvoltage sense pins FB1s and FB2s are
provided to protect the power supply output if for some
reason the main feedback loop is lost (for instance,
loss of feedback resistors). An optional 100pF capacitor (C26) is used for delay and filtering purposes.
If this redundancy is not required and if Type II control loop compensation scheme is utilized, FB1s and
FB2s pins can be connected to FB1 and FB2 pins
respectively.
In parallel configuration, FB2s should be connected
to FB1s

For Type II compensation,
where,
tss is the output voltage ramp time in milliseconds,
and Css is the soft start capacitor in µF.
A 0.1µF capacitor will provide an output voltage rampup time of about 4ms.
VOUT1 is set according to equation (1):
VOUT1 = Vref x (1 + R9 /R7 ) (see Fig. 17)
(2)
(1)
Setting R7 to 1K, VOUT1 to 1.5V and Vref to 0.8V, will
result in R9= 875 ohms (select 887 ohms). Final values can be selected according to the desired accuracy of the output.
To set the output voltage for Type III compensation,
refer to equation (25) in Type III compensation section.
If the 0.8V reference is used to set the voltage for the
second output VOUT2, VP-ref pin must be shorted to
Vref pin and in a similar way, voltage divider resistors
are selected for the second output VOUT2. The second
output can also be set by applying an external refer16
Input Capacitor Selection
The switching currents impose RMS current requirements on the input capacitors. The expression in
equation (3) allows the selection of the input capacitors for duty cycles less than 0.5:

where, I1 and I2 are the load currents for outputs 1
and 2 respectively and D1 and D2 are the duty cycles
for channel 1 and channel 2 respectively.
For output1 of the above example D= 0.13 and,
For output2 of the above example D = 0.21 and,
For the above example, using equation (3) the capacitor rms current yields 5.8A.
www.irf.com
iP1202
For better efficiency and low input ripple, select low
ESR ceramic capacitors. The amount of the capacitors is determined based on the r.m.s. rating. In the
above example, a total of 4 x 22µF, 2A capacitors will
be required to support the input r.m.s. current, including derating (see the parts list in the reference design section of this datasheet).
The 180° out of phase operation of the iP1202 provides reduced voltage ripple at the input of the device. This reduction in ripple requires less input bypass capacitance.
For single output configuration and a duty cycle
greater than 0.5, select the input capacitors according to equation (4) :
I RMS = I LOAD
((2 − 2 D )(2 D − 1)
(4)
D is the duty cycle and is expressed as:
D = VOUT / VIN.
Output Capacitor CO Selection
Selection of the output capacitors depends on two
factors:
a. Low effective ESR for ripple and load transient requirements
To support the load transients and to stay within a
specified voltage dip ∆V due to the transients, e.s.r.
selection should satisfy equation (5):
Resr ≤ ∆V / ILoadmax
(5)
Where,
ILoadmax is the maximum load current.
(6)
Where,
Vp-p is the single phase peak to peak output voltage
ripple.
Iripple is the inductor current peak-to peak ripple.
In addition, the voltage ripple caused by the output
capacitor needs to be significantly smaller than the
ripple caused by the ESR of the capacitor. Use equation (7) to satisfy this requirement.
Co >
10
2⋅π ⋅ f s Resr
www.irf.com
When selecting output capacitors, it is important to
consider the overshoot performance of the power supply. If the amount of capacitance is not adequate, then,
when unloading the output, the magnitude of the overshoot due to stored inductor energy, and depending
on the speed of the response of the control loop, can
exceed the overvoltage trip threshold of the iP1202
and can cause undesirable shutdown of the output.
The magnitude of the overshoot should be kept below 1.125VOUT . To prevent the overshoot from tripping the output a delay can be added by installing
capacitor C26 as shown in Fig.17.
In paralleled single output configuration, due to 180°
phase shift, the peak to peak output voltage ripple
will be reduced because of doubling of the ripple frequency. Also, the resulting ripple current in the output capacitors will be smaller than the ripple current
of each channel. There is some cancellation effect of
these current, the magnitude of which depends on
the duty cycle.
b. Stability
If output voltage ripple is required to be maintained
at specified levels then, the expression in equation
(6) should be used to select the output capacitors.
Resr ≤ Vp-p / Iripple
If the inductor current ripple Iripple is 30% of IOUT1, the
50mV peak to peak output voltage ripple requirement
will be met if the total e.s.r. of the output capacitors is
less than 11mΩ. This will require 2 x 470µF POSCAP
capacitors (See the parts list in the reference design
section of this datasheet). Additional ceramic capacitors can be added in parallel to further reduce the
e.s.r. Care should be given to properly compensate
the control loop for low output capacitor e.s.r. values.
(7)
The value of the output capacitor e.s.r. zero frequency
fesr plays a major role in determining stability. fesr is
calculated by the expression in equation (8).
fesr = 1 / (2 π x Resr x CO)
(8)
Details on how to consider this parameter to design
for stability will be outlined in the control loop compensation section of this datasheet.
Inductor LO Selection
Inductor selection is based on trade-offs between size
and efficiency. Low inductor values result in smaller
sizes, but can cause large ripple currents and lower
efficiency. Low inductor values also benefit the transient performance.

Control Loop Compensation
C9
The iP1202 feedback control is based on single loop
voltage mode control principle if both outputs are
configured in dual output independent mode. In this
case, both outputs can have identical compensation.
If iP1202 outputs are configured for parallel operation, then compensation of the outputs will differ
slightly.
The goal in the design of the compensator is to
achieve the highest unity gain (0 db) crossover frequency with sufficient phase margin for the closed
loop transfer function. The LC filter of the power supply introduces a double pole with –40db/dec slope
and 1800 phase lag. The 180° phase contribution from
the LC filter is the source of instabilty.
The resonant frequency of the LC filter is expressed
by equation (10):
f LC = 1 / (2π L0 × C 0 )
(10)
The error amplifiers of the iP1202 PWM controller
are transconductance amplifiers, and their outputs
are available for external compensation.
Two type of compensators are studied in this section. The first one is called Type II and it is used to
compensate systems the e.s.r. frequency fesr (equation 8) of which is in the midfrequency range and Type
III that can be used for any type of output capacitors
and have a wide range of fesr.

Type III compensation scheme allows the use of any

This scheme suggests a double pole double zero

forces equal sharing of the inductor currents in both
outputs.
Voltage Loop
2. Select R23~ 10kΩ
Type II and Type III methods of voltage loop compensation discussed above, can be used to compensate the voltage loop of a single output iP1202.
In this case, the total amount of capacitance seen
by both channels and the inductance of the voltage
controlling channel should be considered for compensation.
3. Place the first zero fz1 at 75% of the resonant frequency fLC of the output filter.
Determine C9 from equation (22).
Current Loop
Use the following procedure for current loop compensation:
4. Place a third pole fP3 at or near the switching frequency fSW.
In Fig. 20, L1 and L2 are the inductors for outputs 1
and 2 respectively. Rsh1 and Rsh2 are the current
sensing shunts for the same outputs.
Follow the steps below to determine the feedback
loop compensation component values:
1. Select a zero db crossover frequency f0 in the range
of 10% to 20% of the switching frequency fsw.
Select C18 such that C18 <
C9
10
5. Calculate C19 from equation (24).
6. Place the second zero at 125% of the resonant
frequency fLC of the output filter. Calculate R9 using
equation (23).

It is recommended to set the channel 2 crossover

The power stage of the current loop has a dominant
pole at frequency expressed by equation (27):
fp =
Req
2⋅π ⋅ L2

where, Req represents the total resistance of the
power stage that includes the Rdson of the FET
switches, the DC resistance of the inductor and the
shunt resistance, and is expressed by equation (28):
(28)
Req = Rdson + RL + Rsh
use 10mohm for FET Rdson.
To calculate for C11, place the zero frequency fz at
10 times the dominant pole frequency fp using equation (29):

Layout Guidelines
For stable and noise free operation of the whole
power system, it is recommended that the designer
uses the following guidelines:
1. Follow the layout scheme presented in Fig. 32.
Make sure that the output inductors L1 and L2 are
placed as close to iP1202 as possible to prevent
noise propagation that can be caused by switching
of power at the switching node Vsw, to sensitive circuits.
2. Provide a mid-layer solid ground plane with connections to the top layer through vias. The PGND
pads of iP1202 also need to be connected to the
same ground plane through vias.
3. To increase power supply noise immunity, place
input and output capacitors close to one another,
as shown in the layout diagram. This will provide
short high current paths that are essential at the
ground terminals.
4. Although there is a certain degree of VIN bypassing inside the iP1202, the external input decoupling
www.irf.com
capacitors should be as close to the device as possible.
5. The Feedback tracks from the outputs VOUT1 and
VOUT2 to FB1 and FB2 respectively, should be routed
as far away from noise generating traces as possible.
6. The compensation components and the Vref bypass capacitor should be placed as close as possible to their corresponding iP1202 pins.
7. For single output configuration, the parasitic paths
leading to the common output connector from each
parallel branch should be symmetrically routed to
ensure equal current sharing.
8. Refer to IR application note AN-1029 to determine what size vias and copper weight and thickness to use when designing the PCB.
9. Place the overcurrent threshold setting resistors
ROCSET1 and ROCSET2 close to the iP1202 block at the
corresponding connection nodes.
