Multiphase PWM Regulator for IMVP-6.5™ Mobile CPUs
and GPUs
ISL62882, ISL62882B
Features
The ISL62882 is a multiphase PWM buck regulator for
miroprocessor or graphics processor core power supply. The
multiphase buck converter uses interleaved phases to reduce the
total output voltage ripple with each phase carrying a portion of the
total load current, providing better system performance, superior
thermal management, lower component cost, reduced power
dissipation, and smaller implementation area. The ISL62882 uses
two integrated gate drivers to provide a complete solution. The PWM
modulator is based on Intersil's Robust Ripple Regulator (R3)
technology™. Compared with traditional modulators, the R3™
modulator commands variable switching frequency during load
transients, achieving faster transient response. With the same
modulator, the switching frequency is reduced at light load,
increasing the regulator efficiency.
• Programmable 1- or 2-Phase CPU Mode Operation or 1-Phase
GPU Mode Operation
• Precision Multiphase Core Voltage Regulation
- 0.5% System Accuracy Over-Temperature
- Enhanced Load Line Accuracy
The ISL62882 can be configured as CPU or graphics Vcore controller
and is fully compliant with IMVP-6.5™ specifications. It responds to
PSI# and DPRSLPVR signals by adding or dropping Phase 2,
adjusting overcurrent protection threshold accordingly, and
entering/exiting diode emulation mode. It reports the regulator
output current through the IMON pin. It senses the current by using
either discrete resistor or inductor DCR whose variation over
temperature can be thermally compensated by a single NTC
thermistor. It uses differential remote voltage sensing to accurately
regulate the processor die voltage. The unique split LGATE function
further increases light load efficiency. The adaptive body diode
conduction time reduction function minimizes the body diode
conduction loss in diode emulation mode. User-selectable overshoot
reduction function offers an option to aggressively reduce the output
capacitors as well as the option to disable it for users concerned
about increased system thermal stress. The ISL62882 offers the
FB2 function to optimize 1-phase performance.
The ISL62882B has the same functions as the ISL62882, but
comes in a different package.

The ISL62882 is a multiphase regulator implementing Intel®
IMVP-6.5™ protocol. It can be programmed for 1- or 2-phase
operation for microprocessor core applications. It uses Intersil
patented R3™ (Robust Ripple Regulator™) modulator. The R3™
modulator combines the best features of fixed frequency PWM
and hysteretic PWM while eliminating many of their shortcomings.
Figure 5 conceptually shows the ISL62882 multiphase R3™
modulator circuit, and Figure 6 shows the operation principles.
A current source flows from the VW pin to the COMP pin, creating
a voltage window set by the resistor between the two pins. This
voltage window is called VW window in the following discussion.

Inside the IC, the modulator uses the master clock circuit to
generate the clocks for the slave circuits. The modulator
discharges the ripple capacitor Crm with a current source equal
to gmVo, where gm is a gain factor. Crm voltage Vcrm is a
sawtooth waveform traversing between the VW and COMP
voltages. It resets to VW when it hits COMP, and generates a
one-shot master clock signal. A phase sequencer distributes the
master clock signal to the slave circuits. If the ISL62882 is in
2-phase mode, the master clock signal will be distributed to
Phases 1 and 2, and the Clock1 and Clock2 signals will be 180°
out-of-phase. If the ISL62882 is in 1-phase mode, the master
clock signal will be distributed to Phases 1 only and be the
Clock1 signal.
Each slave circuit has its own ripple capacitor Crs, whose voltage
mimics the inductor ripple current. A gm amplifier converts the
inductor voltage into a current source to charge and discharge
Crs. The slave circuit turns on its PWM pulse upon receiving the
clock signal, and the current source charges Crs. When Crs
voltage VCrs hits VW, the slave circuit turns off the PWM pulse,
and the current source discharges Crs.

June 21, 2011
ISL62882, ISL62882B
Since the ISL62882 works with Vcrs, which are large amplitude
and noise-free synthesized signals, the ISL62882 achieves lower
phase jitter than conventional hysteretic mode and fixed PWM
mode controllers. Unlike conventional hysteretic mode
converters, the ISL62882 has an error amplifier that allows the
controller to maintain a 0.5% output voltage accuracy.
Figure 7 shows the operation principles during load insertion
response. The COMP voltage rises during load insertion,
generating the master clock signal more quickly, so the PWM
pulses turn on earlier, increasing the effective switching frequency,
which allows for higher control loop bandwidth than conventional
fixed frequency PWM controllers. The VW voltage rises as the
COMP voltage rises, making the PWM pulses wider. During load
release response, the COMP voltage falls. It takes the master clock
circuit longer to generate the next master clock signal so the PWM
pulse is held off until needed. The VW voltage falls as the VW
voltage falls, reducing the current PWM pulse width. This kind of
behavior gives the ISL62882 excellent response speed.
The fact that both phases share the same VW window voltage
also ensures excellent dynamic current balance between phases.
Figure 9 shows the operation principle in diode emulation mode at
light load. The load gets incrementally lighter in the three cases
from top to bottom. The PWM on-time is determined by the VW
window size, therefore is the same, making the inductor current
triangle the same in the three cases. The ISL62882 clamps the
ripple capacitor voltage Vcrs in DE mode to make it mimic the
inductor current. It takes the COMP voltage longer to hit Vcrs,
naturally stretching the switching period. The inductor current
triangles move further apart from each other such that the
inductor current average value is equal to the load current. The
reduced switching frequency helps to increase light load efficiency.

FIGURE 8. DIODE EMULATION
ISL62882 can operate in diode emulation (DE) mode to improve
light load efficiency. In DE mode, the low-side MOSFET conducts
when the current is flowing from source to drain and does not
allow reverse current, emulating a diode. As Figure 8 shows,
when LGATE is on, the low-side MOSFET carries current, creating
negative voltage on the phase node due to the voltage drop
across the ON-resistance. The ISL62882 monitors the current
through monitoring the phase node voltage. It turns off LGATE
when the phase node voltage reaches zero to prevent the
inductor current from reversing the direction and creating
unnecessary power loss.
If the load current is light enough, as Figure 8 shows, the inductor
current will reach and stay at zero before the next phase node
pulse, and the regulator is in discontinuous conduction mode
(DCM). If the load current is heavy enough, the inductor current
will never reach 0A, and the regulator is in CCM although the
controller is in DE mode.

Start-up Timing
With the controller's VDD voltage above the POR threshold, the
start-up sequence begins when VR_ON exceeds the 3.3V logic high
threshold. Figure 10 shows the typical start-up timing when the
ISL62882 is configured for CPU VR application. The ISL62882
uses digital soft-start to ramp-up DAC to the boot voltage of 1.1V at
about 2.5mV/µs. Once the output voltage is within 10% of the
boot voltage for 13 PWM cycles (43µs for frequency = 300kHz),
CLK_EN# is pulled low and DAC slews at 5mV/µs to the voltage set
by the VID pins. PGOOD is asserted high in approximately 7ms.
Similar results occur if VR_ON is tied to VDD, with the soft-start
sequence starting 120µs after VDD crosses the POR threshold.
Figure 11 shows the typical start-up timing when the ISL62882 is
configured for GPU VR application. The ISL62882 uses digital
soft start to ramp up DAC to the voltage set by the VID pins. The
slew rate is 5mV/µs when there is DPRSLPVR = 0, and is
doubled when there is DPRSLPVR = 1. Once the output voltage is
within 10% of the target voltage for 13 PWM cycles (43µs for
frequency = 300kHz), CLK_EN# is pulled low. PGOOD is asserted
high in approximately 7ms. Similar results occur if VR_ON is tied
to VDD, with the soft-start sequence starting 120µs after VDD
crosses the POR threshold.

After the start sequence, the ISL62882 regulates the output
voltage to the value set by the VID inputs per Table 1. The
ISL62882 will control the no-load output voltage to an accuracy of
±0.5% over the range of 0.75V to 1.5V. A differential amplifier
allows voltage sensing for precise voltage regulation at the
microprocessor die.

Equation 4 is the exact equation required for load line

Phase Current Balancing
As the load current increases from zero, the output voltage will
droop from the VID table value by an amount proportional to the
load current to achieve the load line. The ISL62882 can sense
the inductor current through the intrinsic DC Resistance (DCR) of
the inductors as shown in Figure 1 or through resistors in series
with the inductors as shown in Figure 2. In both methods,
capacitor Cn voltage represents the inductor total currents. A
droop amplifier converts Cn voltage into an internal current
source with the gain set by resistor Ri. The current source is used
for load line implementation, current monitor and overcurrent
protection.
Figure 12 shows the load line implementation. The ISL62882
drives a current source Idroop out of the FB pin, described by
Equation 1.
2xV Cn
I droop = ---------------Ri
(EQ. 4)
The VCCSENSE and VSSSENSE signals come from the processor die.
The feedback will be open circuit in the absence of the processor. As
Figure 12 shows, it is recommended to add a “catch” resistor to feed
the VR local output voltage back to the compensator, and add
another “catch” resistor to connect the VR local output ground to the
RTN pin. These resistors, typically 10Ω~100Ω, will provide voltage
feedback if the system is powered up without a processor installed.

FIGURE 13. CURRENT BALANCING CIRCUIT
The ISL62882 monitors individual phase average current by
monitoring the ISEN1 and ISEN2 voltages. Figure 13 shows the
current balancing circuit recommended for ISL62882. Each
phase node voltage is averaged by a low-pass filter consisting of
Rs and Cs, and presented to the corresponding ISEN pin. Rs
should be routed to inductor phase-node pad in order to
eliminate the effect of phase node parasitic PCB DCR. Equations
5 and 6 give the ISEN pin voltages:
V ISEN1 = ( R dcr1 + R pcb1 ) × I L1
(EQ. 5)
Idroop flows through resistor Rdroop and creates a voltage drop as
shown in Equation 2.
V ISEN2 = ( R dcr2 + R pcb2 ) × I L2
(EQ. 6)
V droop = R droop × I droop
where Rdcr1 and Rdcr2 are inductor DCR; Rpcb1 and Rpcb2 are
parasitic PCB DCR between the inductor output side pad and the
output voltage rail; and IL1 and IL2 are inductor average currents.
(EQ. 2)
Vdroop is the droop voltage required to implement load line.
Changing Rdroop or scaling Idroop can both change the load line
slope. Since Idroop also sets the overcurrent protection level, it is
recommended to first scale Idroop based on OCP requirement,
then select an appropriate Rdroop value to obtain the desired
load line slope.
Differential Sensing
Figure 12 also shows the differential voltage sensing scheme.
VCCSENSE and VSSSENSE are the remote voltage sensing signals
from the processor die. A unity gain differential amplifier senses
the VSSSENSE voltage and add it to the DAC output. The error
amplifier regulates the inverting and the non-inverting input
voltages to be equal as shown in Equation 3:
16
The ISL62882 will adjust the phase pulse-width relative to the
other phase to make VISEN1 = VISEN2, thus to achieve IL1 = IL2,
when there are Rdcr1 = Rdcr2 and Rpcb1 = Rpcb2.
Using same components for L1 and L2 will provide a good match
of Rdcr1 and Rdcr2. Board layout will determine Rpcb1 and Rpcb2.
It is recommended to have symmetrical layout for the power
delivery path between each inductor and the output voltage rail,
such that Rpcb1 = Rpcb2 .

Sometimes, it is difficult to implement symmetrical layout. For
the circuit Figure 13 shows, asymmetric layout causes different
Rpcb1 and Rpcb2 thus current imbalance. Figure 14 shows a
differential-sensing current balancing circuit recommended for
ISL62882. The current sensing traces should be routed to the
inductor pads so they only pick up the inductor DCR voltage. Each
ISEN pin sees the average voltage of two sources: its own phase
inductor phase-node pad, and the other phase inductor output
side pad. Equations 7 and 8 give the ISEN pin voltages:
V ISEN1 = V 1p + V 2n
(EQ. 7)
V ISEN2 = V 2p + V 1n
(EQ. 8)
REP RATE = 50kHz
The ISL62882 will make VISEN1 = VISEN2. So there are:
V 1p + V 2n = V 2p + V 1n
(EQ. 9)
Rewriting Equation 9 gives:
V 1p – V 1n = V 2p – V 2n
(EQ. 10)
REP RATE = 100kHz
Therefore:
R dcr1 × I L1 = R dcr2 × I L2
(EQ. 11)
Current balancing (IL1 = IL2) will be achieved when there is
Rdcr1 = Rdcr2. Rpcb1 and Rpcb2 will not have any effect.
Since the slave ripple capacitor voltages mimic the inductor
currents, R3™ modulator can naturally achieve excellent current
balancing during steady state and dynamic operations. Figure 15
shows current balancing performance of the ISL62882
evaluation board with load transient of 15A/50A at different rep
rates. The inductor currents follow the load current dynamic
change with the output capacitors supplying the difference. The
inductor currents can track the load current well at a low rep rate,
but cannot keep up when the rep rate gets into the hundred-kHz
range, where it’s out of the control loop bandwidth. The controller
achieves excellent current balancing in all cases.
REP RATE = 200kHz

CCM Switching Frequency
The Rfset resistor between the COMP and the VW pins sets the
VW windows size, therefore sets the switching frequency. When
the ISL62882 is in continuous conduction mode (CCM), the
switching frequency is not absolutely constant due to the nature
of the R3™ modulator. As explained in the “Multiphase R3™
Modulator” on page 12, the effective switching frequency will
increase during load insertion and will decrease during load
release to achieve fast response. On the other hand, the
switching frequency is relatively constant at steady state.
Variation is expected when the power stage condition, such as
input voltage, output voltage, load, etc. changes. The variation is
usually less than 15% and doesn’t have any significant effect on
output voltage ripple magnitude. Equation 12 gives an estimate
of the frequency-setting resistor Rfset value. 8kΩ Rfset gives
approximately 300kHz switching frequency. Lower resistance
gives higher switching frequency.
R fset ( kΩ ) = ( Period ( μs ) – 0.29 ) × 2.65

Table 3 shows the ISL62882 operational modes, programmed by
the logic status of the PSI# and DPRSLPVR pins.
In 2-phase configuration, the ISL62882 enters 1-phase CCM for
(PSI# = 0 and DPRSLPVR = 0). It drops phase 2 and reduces the
overcurrent and the way-overcurrent protection levels to 1/2 of
the initial values. The ISL62882 enters 1-phase DE mode when
DPRSLPVR = 1 by dropping phase 2.
In 1-phase configuration, the ISL62882 does not change the
operational mode when the PSI# signal changes status. It enters
1-phase DE mode when DLPRSLPVR = 1.
Dynamic Operation
When the ISL62882 is configured for CPU VR application, it
responds to VID changes by slewing to the new voltage at
5mV/µs slew rate. As the output approaches the VID command
voltage, the dv/dt moderates to prevent overshoot. Geyserville-III
transitions commands one LSB VID step (12.5mV) every 2.5µs,
controlling the effective dv/dt at 5mv/µs. The ISL62882 is
capable of 5mV/µs slew rate.
When the ISL62882 is configured for GPU VR application, it
responds to VID changes by slewing to the new voltage at a slew
rate set by the logic status on the DPRSLPVR pin. The slew rate is
5mV/µs when DPRSLPVR = 0 and is doubled when
DPRSLPVR = 1.
When the ISL62882 is in DE mode, it will actively drive the output
voltage up when the VID changes to a higher value. It’ll resume
DE mode operation after reaching the new voltage level. If the
load is light enough to warrant DCM, it will enter DCM after the
inductor current has crossed zero for four consecutive cycles. The
ISL62882 will remain in DE mode when the VID changes to a
lower value. The output voltage will decay to the new value and
the load will determine the slew rate. Over-voltage protection is
blanked during VID down transition in DE mode until the output
voltage is within 60mV of the VID value.
During load insertion response, the Fast Clock function increases
the PWM pulse response speed. The ISL62882 monitors the
VSEN pin voltage and compares it to 100ns-filtered version.
When the unfiltered version is 20mV below the filtered version,
the controller knows there is a fast voltage dip due to load
insertion, hence issues an additional master clock signal to
deliver a PWM pulse immediately.
10mV/µs
The ISL62882 can be configured for 2- or 1-phase operation.
For 1-phase configuration, tie the ISEN2 pin to 5V. In this
configuration, only phase-1 is active.
Table 2 shows the ISL62882 configurations, programmed by the
ISEN2 pin status and the Rbias value.
If the ISEN2 pin is connected to the power stage, the ISL62882 is
in 2-phase CPU VR configuration. Rbias = 147kΩ disables the
overshoot reduction function and Rbias = 47kΩ enables it.
18
If ISEN2 is tied to 5V, the ISL62882 is configured for 1-phase
operation. Rbias = 147kΩ sets 1-phase CPU VR configuration
and Rbias = 47kΩ sets 1-phase GPU configuration.
The R3™ modulator intrinsically has voltage feed-forward. The
output voltage is insensitive to a fast slew rate input voltage
change.
Protections
The ISL62882 provides overcurrent, current-balance,
undervoltage, overvoltage, and over-temperature protections.
The ISL62882 determines overcurrent protection (OCP) by
comparing the average value of the droop current Idroop with an
internal current source threshold. It declares OCP when Idroop is
above the threshold for 120µs. A resistor Rcomp from the COMP
pin to GND programs the OCP current source threshold, as well
FN6890.4
June 21, 2011
ISL62882, ISL62882B
as the overshoot reduction function in 1-phase configuration, as
Table 4 shows. It is recommended to use the nominal Rcomp
value. The ISL62882 detects the Rcomp value at the beginning of
start-up, and sets the internal OCP threshold accordingly. It
remembers the Rcomp value until the VR_ON signal drops below
the POR threshold.

FUNCTION
The second level of overvoltage protection is different. If the output
voltage exceeds 1.55V, the ISL62882 will immediately declare an
OV fault, de-assert PGOOD, and turn on the low-side power
MOSFETs. The low-side power MOSFETs remain on until the output
voltage is pulled down below 0.85V when all power MOSFETs are
turned off. If the output voltage rises above 1.55V again, the
protection process is repeated. This behavior provides the
maximum amount of protection against shorted high-side power
MOSFETs while preventing output ringing below ground. Resetting
VR_ON cannot clear the 1.55V OVP. Only resetting VDD will clear it.
The 1.55V OVP is active all the time when the controller is enabled,
even if one of the other faults have been declared. This ensures
that the processor is protected against high-side power MOSFET
leakage while the MOSFETs are commanded off.
Disabled
The ISL62882 has a thermal throttling feature. If the voltage on
the NTC pin goes below the 1.18V OT threshold, the VR_TT# pin is
pulled low indicating the need for thermal throttling to the
system. No other action is taken within the ISL62882 in response
to NTC pin voltage.
Enabled
Table 5 summarizes the fault protections.
The default OCP threshold is the value when Rcomp is not populated.
It is recommended to scale the droop current Idroop such that the
default OCP threshold gives approximately the desired OCP level,
then use Rcomp to fine tune the OCP level if necessary.
For overcurrent conditions above 2.5x the OCP level, the PWM
outputs will immediately shut off and PGOOD will go low to
maximize protection. This protection is also referred to as wayovercurrent protection or fast-overcurrent protection, for shortcircuit protections.

The ISL62882 has two levels of overvoltage protections. The first
level of overvoltage protection is referred to as PGOOD
overvoltage protection. If the output voltage exceeds the VID set
value by +200mV for 1ms, the ISL62882 will declare a fault and
de-assert PGOOD.
The ISL62882 takes the same actions for all of the above fault
protections: de-assertion of PGOOD and turn-off of the high-side
and low-side power MOSFETs. Any residual inductor current will
decay through the MOSFET body diodes. These fault conditions
can be reset by bringing VR_ON low or by bringing VDD below the
POR threshold. When VR_ON and VDD return to their high
operating levels, a soft-start will occur.

Current Monitor
The ISL62882 provides the current monitor function. The IMON
pin outputs a high-speed analog current source that is 3 times of
the droop current flowing out of the FB pin. Thus Equation 13:
I IMON = 3 × I droop
(EQ. 13)
As Figures 1 and 2 show, a resistor Rimon is connected to the
IMON pin to convert the IMON pin current to voltage. A capacitor
can be paralleled with Rimon to filter the voltage information. The
IMVP-6.5™ specification requires that the IMON voltage
information be referenced to VSSSENSE.
Overshoot Reduction Function
The IMON pin voltage range is 0V to 1.1V. A clamp circuit
prevents the IMON pin voltage from going above 1.1V.
The ISL62882 has an optional overshoot reduction function.
Tables 2 and 4 show to enable and disable it.

FIGURE 16. FB2 FUNCTION IN 2-PHASE MODE
Figure 16 shows the FB2 function. A switch (called FB2 switch)
turns on to short the FB and the FB2 pins when the controller is in
2-phase mode. Capacitors C3.1 and C3.2 are in parallel, serving
as part of the compensator. When the controller enters 1-phase
mode, the FB2 switch turns off, removing C3.2 and leaving only
C3.1 in the compensator. The compensator gain will increase
with the removal of C3.2. By properly sizing C3.1 and C3.2, the
compensator cab be optimal for both 2-phase mode and 1-phase
mode.
When the FB2 switch is off, C3.2 is disconnected from the FB pin.
However, the controller still actively drives the FB2 pin voltage to
follow the FB pin voltage such that C3.2 voltage always follows
C3.1 voltage. When the controller turns on the FB2 switch, C3.2
will be reconnected to the compensator smoothly.
The FB2 function ensures excellent transient response in both
2-phase mode and 1-phase mode. If one decides not to use the
FB2 function, simply populate C3.1 only.
Adaptive Body Diode Conduction Time
Reduction
In DCM, the controller turns off the low-side MOSFET when the
inductor current approaches zero. During on-time of the low-side
MOSFET, phase voltage is negative and the amount is the
MOSFET rDS(ON) voltage drop, which is proportional to the
inductor current. A phase comparator inside the controller
monitors the phase voltage during on-time of the low-side
MOSFET and compares it with a threshold to determine the
zero-crossing point of the inductor current. If the inductor current
20
has not reached zero when the low-side MOSFET turns off, it’ll
flow through the low-side MOSFET body diode, causing the phase
node to have a larger voltage drop until it decays to zero. If the
inductor current has crossed zero and reversed the direction
when the low-side MOSFET turns off, it’ll flow through the
high-side MOSFET body diode, causing the phase node to have a
spike until it decays to zero. The controller continues monitoring
the phase voltage after turning off the low-side MOSFET and
adjusts the phase comparator threshold voltage accordingly in
iterative steps such that the low-side MOSFET body diode
conducts for approximately 40ns to minimize the body
diode-related loss.
When a load release occurs, the energy stored in the inductors
will dump to the output capacitor, causing output voltage
overshoot. The inductor current freewheels through the low-side
MOSFET during this period of time. The overshoot reduction
function turns off the low-side MOSFET during the output voltage
overshoot, forcing the inductor current to freewheel through the
low-side MOSFET body diode. Since the body diode voltage drop
is much higher than MOSFET Rdson voltage drop, more energy is
dissipated on the low-side MOSFET therefore the output voltage
overshoot is lower.
If the overshoot reduction function is enabled, the ISL62882
monitors the COMP pin voltage to determine the output voltage
overshoot condition. The COMP voltage will fall and hit the clamp
voltage when the output voltage overshoots. The ISL62882 will
turn off LGATE1 and LGATE2 when COMP is being clamped. All
the low-side MOSFETs in the power stage will be turned off. When
the output voltage has reached its peak and starts to come
down, the COMP voltage starts to rise and is no longer clamped.
The ISL62882 will resume normal PWM operation.
When PSI# is low, indicating a low power state of the CPU, the
controller will disable the overshoot reduction function as large
magnitude transient event is not expected and overshoot is not a
concern.
While the overshoot reduction function reduces the output voltage
overshoot, energy is dissipated on the low-side MOSFET, causing
additional power loss. The more frequent transient event, the more
power loss dissipated on the low-side MOSFET. The MOSFET may
face severe thermal stress when transient events happen at a high
repetitive rate. User discretion is advised when this function is
enabled.

The ISL62882 uses a resistor (1% or better tolerance is
recommended) from the RBIAS pin to GND to establish highly
accurate reference current sources inside the IC. Refer to Table 2
to select the resistance according to desired configuration. Do not
connect any other components to this pin. Do not connect any
capacitor to the RBIAS pin as it will create instability.

ISL62882, ISL62882B
Care should be taken in layout that the resistor is placed very
close to the RBIAS pin and that a good quality signal ground is
connected to the opposite side of the RBIAS resistor.
Ris and Cis
As Figures 1 thru 4 show, the ISL62882 needs the Ris - Cis
network across the ISUM+ and the ISUM- pins to stabilize the
droop amplifier. The preferred values are Ris = 82.5Ω and
Cis = 0.01µF. Slight deviations from the recommended values
are acceptable. Large deviations may result in instability.

where N is the number of phases.
Transfer function Acs(s) always has unity gain at DC. The inductor
DCR value increases as the winding temperature increases,
giving higher reading of the inductor DC current. The NTC Rntc
values decreases as its temperature decreases. Proper
selections of Rsum, Rntcs, Rp and Rntc parameters ensure that
VCn represent the inductor total DC current over the temperature
range of interest.
There are many sets of parameters that can properly
temperature-compensate the DCR change. Since the NTC network
and the Rsum resistors form a voltage divider, Vcn is always a
fraction of the inductor DCR voltage. It is recommended to have a
higher ratio of Vcn to the inductor DCR voltage, so the droop circuit
has higher signal level to work with.

Io
FIGURE 17. DCR CURRENT-SENSING NETWORK
Figure 17 shows the inductor DCR current-sensing network for a
2-phase solution. An inductor current flows through the DCR and
creates a voltage drop. Each inductor has two resistors in Rsum and
Ro connected to the pads to accurately sense the inductor current by
sensing the DCR voltage drop. The Rsum and Ro resistors are
connected in a summing network as shown, and feed the total
current information to the NTC network (consisting of Rntcs, Rntc
and Rp) and capacitor Cn. Rntc is a negative temperature coefficient
(NTC) thermistor, used to temperature-compensate the inductor
DCR change.
The inductor output side pads are electrically shorted in the
schematic, but have some parasitic impedance in actual board
layout, which is why one cannot simply short them together for the
current-sensing summing network. It is recommended to use
1Ω~10Ω Ro to create quality signals. Since Ro value is much
smaller than the rest of the current sensing circuit, the following
analysis will ignore it for simplicity.
The summed inductor current information is presented to the
capacitor Cn. Equations 14 thru 18 describe the
frequency-domain relationship between inductor total current
Io(s) and Cn voltage VCn(s).

A typical set of parameters that provide good temperature
compensation are: Rsum = 3.65kΩ, Rp = 11kΩ, Rntcs = 2.61kΩ
and Rntc = 10kΩ (ERT-J1VR103J). The NTC network parameters
may need to be fine tuned on actual boards. One can apply full
load DC current and record the output voltage reading
immediately; then record the output voltage reading again when
the board has reached the thermal steady state. A good NTC
network can limit the output voltage drift to within 2mV. It is
recommended to follow the Intersil evaluation board layout and
current-sensing network parameters to minimize engineering
time.
VCn(s) also needs to represent real-time Io(s) for the controller to
achieve good transient response. Transfer function Acs(s) has a
pole ωsns and a zero ωL. One needs to match ωL and ωsns so
Acs(s) is unity gain at all frequencies. By forcing ωL equal to ωsns
and solving for the solution, Equation 19 gives Cn value.

For example, given N = 2, Rsum = 3.65kΩ, Rp = 11kΩ,
Rntcs = 2.61kΩ, Rntc = 10kΩ, DCR = 0.88mΩ and L = 0.36µH,
Equation 19 gives Cn = 0.294µF.
Assuming the compensator design is correct, Figure 18 shows the
expected load transient response waveforms if Cn is correctly
selected. When the load current Icore has a square change, the
output voltage Vcore also has a square response.
If Cn value is too large or too small, VCn(s) will not accurately
represent real-time Io(s) and will worsen the transient response.
Figure 19 shows the load transient response when Cn is too
small. Vcore will sag excessively upon load insertion and may
create a system failure. Figure 20 shows the transient response
when Cn is too large. Vcore is sluggish in drooping to its final
value. There will be excessive overshoot if load insertion occurs
during this time, which may potentially hurt the CPU reliability.
22
FIGURE 22. OPTIONAL CIRCUITS FOR RING BACK REDUCTION
Figure 21 shows the output voltage ring back problem during load
transient response. The load current io has a fast step change, but
the inductor current iL cannot accurately follow. Instead, iL
responds in first order system fashion due to the nature of current
loop. The ESR and ESL effect of the output capacitors makes the
output voltage Vo dip quickly upon load current change. However,
the controller regulates Vo according to the droop current idroop,
which is a real-time representation of iL; therefore it pulls Vo back
to the level dictated by iL, causing the ring back problem. This
phenomenon is not observed when the output capacitor have very
low ESR and ESL, such as all ceramic capacitors.
Figure 22 shows two optional circuits for reduction of the ring back.
Cn is the capacitor used to match the inductor time constant. It
usually takes the parallel of two (or more) capacitors to get the
desired value. Figure 22 shows that two capacitors Cn.1 and Cn.2
are in parallel. Resistor Rn is an optional component to reduce
the Vo ring back. At steady state, Cn.1 + Cn.2 provides the desired
Cn capacitance. At the beginning of io change, the effective
capacitance is less because Rn increases the impedance of the
Cn.1 branch. As Figure 19 explains, Vo tends to dip when Cn is too
small, and this effect will reduce the Vo ring back. This effect is
more pronounced when Cn.1 is much larger than Cn.2. It is also
more pronounced when Rn is bigger. However, the presence of
Rn increases the ripple of the Vn signal if Cn.2 is too small. It is
recommended to keep Cn.2 greater than 2200pF. Rn value
usually is a few ohms. Cn.1, Cn.2 and Rn values should be
determined through tuning the load transient response
waveforms on an actual board.
FN6890.4
June 21, 2011
ISL62882, ISL62882B
Rip and Cip form an R-C branch in parallel with Ri, providing a
lower impedance path than Ri at the beginning of io change. Rip
and Cip do not have any effect at steady state. Through proper
selection of Rip and Cip values, idroop can resemble io rather than
iL, and Vo will not ring back. The recommended value for Rip is
100Ω. Cip should be determined through tuning the load
transient response waveforms on an actual board. The
recommended range for Cip is 100pF~2000pF. However, it
should be noted that the Rip -Cip branch may distort the idroop
waveform. Instead of being triangular as the real inductor
current, idroop may have sharp spikes, which may adversely
affect idroop average value detection and therefore may affect
OCP accuracy. User discretion is advised.
Resistor Current-Sensing Network
PHASE1
Overcurrent Protection
Refer to Equation 1 on page 16 and Figures 12, 17 and 23;
resistor Ri sets the droop current Idroop. Table 4 shows the
internal OCP threshold. It is recommended to design Idroop
without using the Rcomp resistor.
For example, the OCP threshold is 40µA for 2-phase solution. We
will design Idroop to be 34.3µA at full load, so the OCP trip level is
1.16x of the full load current.
For inductor DCR sensing, Equation 23 gives the DC relationship
of Vcn(s) and Io(s).

FIGURE 23. RESISTOR CURRENT-SENSING NETWORK
Figure 23 shows the resistor current-sensing network for a
2-phase solution. Each inductor has a series current-sensing
resistor Rsen. Rsum and Ro are connected to the Rsen pads to
accurately capture the inductor current information. The Rsum
and Ro resistors are connected to capacitor Cn. Rsum and Cn
form a filter for noise attenuation. Equations 20 thru 22 give

DCR = 0.88mΩ, Iomax = 51A and Idroopmax = 34.3µA,
Equation 26 gives Ri = 998Ω.

where Iomax is the full load current, Idroopmax is the
corresponding droop current. For example, given N = 2,
Rsen = 1mΩ, Iomax = 51A and Idroopmax = 34.3µA, Equation 30
gives Ri = 1.487kΩ.
A resistor from COMP to GND can adjust the internal OCP
threshold, providing another dimension of fine-tune flexibility.
Table 4 shows the detail. It is recommended to scale Idroop such
that the default OCP threshold gives approximately the desired
OCP level, then use Rcomp to fine tune the OCP level if necessary.

(EQ. 37)
For example, given LL = 1.9mΩ, Rdroop = 2.825kΩ,
VRimon = 963mV at Iomax = 51A, Equation 37 gives
Rimon = 9.358kΩ.
A capacitor Cimon can be paralleled with Rimon to filter the IMON
pin voltage. The RimonCimon time constant is the user’s choice. It
is recommended to have a time constant long enough such that
switching frequency ripples are removed.
Compensator
Figure 18 shows the desired load transient response waveforms.
Figure 24 shows the equivalent circuit of a voltage regulator (VR)
with the droop function. A VR is equivalent to a voltage source
(= VID) and output impedance Zout(s). If Zout(s) is equal to the
load line slope LL, i.e., constant output impedance, in the entire
frequency range, Vo will have square response when Io has a
square change.
(EQ. 32)
Zout(s) = LL
Substitution of Equation 25 and rewriting Equation 31, or
substitution of Equation 29 and rewriting Equation 32 give the
same result in Equation 33:
Io
R droop = ---------------- × LL

Rewriting Equation 36 and application of full load condition gives
Equation 37:

(EQ. 33)
One can use the full load condition to calculate Rdroop. For
example, given Iomax = 51A, Idroopmax = 34.3µA and
LL = 1.9mΩ, Equation 33 gives Rdroop = 2.825kΩ.
It is recommended to start with the Rdroop value calculated by
Equation 33, and fine tune it on the actual board to get accurate
load line slope. One should record the output voltage readings at
no load and at full load for load line slope calculation. Reading
the output voltage at lighter load instead of full load will increase
the measurement error.
Current Monitor
Refer to Equation 13 for the IMON pin current expression.
Refer to Figures 1 and 2, the IMON pin current flows through
Rimon. The voltage across Rimon is expressed in Equation 34:
V Rimon = 3 × I droop × R imon
(EQ. 34)
Rewriting Equation 33 gives Equation 35:
Io
I droop = ------------------ × LL
R droop
(EQ. 35)
Substitution of Equation 35 into Equation 34 gives Equation 36:

(EQ. 36)
FIGURE 24. VOLTAGE REGULATOR EQUIVALENT CIRCUIT
Intersil provides a Microsoft Excel-based spreadsheet to help
design the compensator and the current sensing network, so the
VR achieves constant output impedance as a stable system.
Figure 27 shows a screenshot of the spreadsheet.
A VR with active droop function is a dual-loop system consisting of
a voltage loop and a droop loop which is a current loop. However,
neither loop alone is sufficient to describe the entire system. The
spreadsheet shows two loop gain transfer functions, T1(s) and
T2(s), that describe the entire system. Figure 25 conceptually
shows T1(s) measurement set-up and Figure 26 conceptually
shows T2(s) measurement set-up. The VR senses the inductor
current, multiplies it by a gain of the load line slope, then adds it
on top of the sensed output voltage and feeds it to the
compensator. T(1) is measured after the summing node, and T2(s)
is measured in the voltage loop before the summing node. The
spreadsheet gives both T1(s) and T2(s) plots. However, only T2(s)
can be actually measured on an ISL62882 regulator.
T1(s) is the total loop gain of the voltage loop and the droop loop.
It always has a higher crossover frequency than T2(s) and has
more meaning of system stability.
T2(s) is the voltage loop gain with closed droop loop. It has more
meaning of output voltage response.
Design the compensator to get stable T1(s) and T2(s) with
sufficient phase margin, and output impedance equal or smaller
than the load line slope.

FIGURE 28. OPTIONAL SLEW RATE COMPENSATION CIRCUIT
FOR1-TICK VID TRANSITION
During a large VID transition, the DAC steps through the VIDs at a
controlled slew rate. For example, the DAC may change a tick
(12.5mV) per 2.5µs per, controlling output voltage Vcore slew
rate at 5mV/µs.
Figure 28 shows the waveforms of 1-tick VID transition. During
1-tick VID transition, the DAC output changes at approximately
15mV/µs slew rate, but the DAC cannot step through multiple
VIDs to control the slew rate. Instead, the control loop response
speed determines Vcore slew rate. Ideally, Vcore will follow the FB
pin voltage slew rate. However, the controller senses the inductor
current increase during the up transition, as the Idroop_vid
waveform shows, and will droop the output voltage Vcore
accordingly, making Vcore slew rate slow. Similar behavior occurs
during the down transition.
To control Vcore slew rate during 1-tick VID transition, one can
add the Rvid-Cvid branch, whose current Ivid cancels Idroop_vid.
When Vcore increases, the time domain expression of the
induced Idroop change is

Figure 29 shows the thermal throttling feature with hysteresis.
An NTC network is connected between the NTC pin and GND. At
low temperature, SW1 is on and SW2 connects to the 1.20V side.
The total current flowing out of the NTC pin is 60µA. The voltage
on NTC pin is higher than threshold voltage of 1.20V and the
comparator output is low. VR_TT# is pulled up by the external
resistor.
When temperature increases, the NTC thermistor resistance
decreases so the NTC pin voltage drops. When the NTC pin
voltage drops below 1.20V, the comparator changes polarity and
turns SW1 off and throws SW2 to 1.24V. This pulls VR_TT# low
and sends the signal to start thermal throttle. There is a 6µA
current reduction on NTC pin and 40mV voltage increase on
threshold voltage of the comparator in this state. The VR_TT#
signal will be used to change the CPU operation and decrease
the power consumption. When the temperature drops down, the
NTC thermistor voltage will go up. If NTC voltage increases to
above 1.24V, the comparator will flip back. The external
resistance difference in these two conditions is shown in
Equation 44:
Current Balancing
Refer to Figures 1 and 2. The ISL62882 achieves current
balancing through matching the ISEN pin voltages. Rs and Cs
form filters to remove the switching ripple of the phase node
voltages. It is recommended to use rather long RsCs time
constant such that the ISEN voltages have minimal ripple and
represent the DC current flowing through the inductors.
Recommended values are Rs = 10kΩ and Cs = 0.22µF.
Layout Guidelines
Table 6 shows the layout considerations. The designators refer to
the reference design shown in Figure 31.
TABLE 6. LAYOUT CONSIDERATION
PIN
NAME
LAYOUT CONSIDERATION
EP
GND
Create analog ground plane underneath the
controller and the analog signal processing
components. Don’t let the power ground plane
overlap with the analog ground plane. Avoid noisy
planes/traces (e.g.: phase node) from crossing
over/overlapping with the analog plane.
1
PGOOD
No special consideration
One needs to properly select the NTC thermistor value such that
the required temperature hysteresis correlates to 2.96kΩ
resistance change. A regular resistor may need to be in series with
the NTC thermistor to meet the threshold voltage values.
2
PSI#
No special consideration
3
RBIAS
Place the RBIAS resistor (R16) in general proximity
of the controller. Low impedance connection to the
analog ground plane.
For example, given Panasonic NTC thermistor with B = 4700, the
resistance will drop to 0.03322 of its nominal at +105°C, and
drop to 0.03956 of its nominal at +100°C. If the required
temperature hysteresis is +105°C to +100°C, the required
resistance of NTC will be as shown in Equation 45:
4
VR_TT#
No special consideration
5
NTC
The NTC thermistor (R9) needs to be placed close
to the thermal source that is monitor to determine
thermal throttling. Usually it’s placed close to
phase-1 high-side MOSFET.
6
VW
Place the capacitor (C4) across VW and COMP in
close proximity of the controller
Therefore, a larger value thermistor such as 470k NTC should be
used.
7
COMP
8
FB
Place the compensator components (C3, C5, C6
R7, R11, R10 and C11) in general proximity of the
controller.
At +105°C, 470kΩ NTC resistance becomes
(0.03322 × 470kΩ) = 15.6kΩ. With 60µA on the NTC pin, the
voltage is only (15.6kΩ × 60µA) = 0.937V. This value is much
lower than the threshold voltage of 1.20V. Therefore, a regular
resistor needs to be in series with the NTC. The required
resistance can be calculated by Equation 46:
9
FB2
10
ISEN2
A capacitor (C9) decouples it to VSUM-. Place it in
general proximity of the controller.

ISEN1
A capacitor (C10) decouples it to VSUM-. Place it in
general proximity of the controller.
12
VSEN
13
RTN
Place the VSEN/RTN filter (C12, C13) in close
proximity of the controller for good decoupling.

4.42k is a standard resistor value. Therefore, the NTC branch
should have a 470k NTC and 4.42k resistor in series. The part
number for the NTC thermistor is ERTJ0EV474J. It is a 0402
package. NTC thermistor will be placed in the hot spot of the
board.

ISUM+
Place the current sensing circuit in general
proximity of the controller.
Place C82 very close to the controller.
Place NTC thermistors R42 next to phase-1
inductor (L1) so it senses the inductor temperature
correctly.
Each phase of the power stage sends a pair of
VSUM+ and VSUM- signals to the controller. Run
these two signals traces in parallel fashion with
decent width (>20mil).
IMPORTANT: Sense the inductor current by routing
the sensing circuit to the inductor pads.
Route R63 and R71 to the phase-1 side pad of
inductor L1. Route R88 to the output side pad of
inductor L1.
Route R65 and R72 to the phase-2 side pad of
inductor L2. Route R90 to the output side pad of
inductor L2.
If possible, route the traces on a different layer
from the inductor pad layer and use vias to
connect the traces to the center of the pads. If no
via is allowed on the pad, consider routing the
traces into the pads from the inside of the inductor.
The following drawings show the two preferred
ways of routing current sensing traces.
27
VSSP2
Run these two traces in parallel fashion with
decent width (>30mil). Avoid any sensitive analog
signal trace from crossing over or getting close.
Recommend routing VSSP2 to the phase-2 lowside MOSFET (Q5 and Q1) source pins instead of
general power ground plane for better
performance.

DATE
REVISION
CHANGE
5/6/11
FN6890.4
Updated to most current Intersil template.
Page 8, Electrical Spec table: Added min and max limits for IMON Output Current, Condition ISUM – pin current = 5µA, Min: 22
Max: 37.5
Page 8, Note 6: Updated over temp note in Min Max column of spec tables from "Compliance to datasheet limits is assured by
one or more methods: production test, characterization and/or design." To: "Parameters with MIN and/or MAX limits are 100%
tested at +25°C, unless otherwise specified. Temperature limits established by characterization and are not production tested."
2/10/11
FN6890.3
Page 7, Electrical Spec table: removed min and max limits for IMON Output Current, Condition ISUM – pin current = 5µA
Pg 2 - Updated Tape & Reel note in Ordering Information from "Add “-T” suffix for tape and reel." to new standard "Add “-T*” suffix
for tape and reel." The "*" covers all possible tape and reel options.
Removed -T FGs that are covered by "-T*" note (IRTZ-T, HRTZ-T, BHRTZ-T)
Updated Intersil Trademark statement at bottom of page 1 per directive from Legal.
Updated over temp note in Min Max column of spec tables from "Parameters with MIN and/or MAX limits are 100% tested at
+25°C, unless otherwise specified. Temperature limits established by characterization and are not production tested." to new
standard "Compliance to datasheet limits is assured by one or more methods: production test, characterization and/or design."
Electrical Spec table: Removed Note 7 "Limits established by characterization and are not production tested." and references to
it in the table.
Updated L40.5x5 POD to rev .1. Changes from rev 0:
Added Note 7 (JEDEC reference drawing: MO-220WHHE-1)
Added Note 4 callout to Dimension b in bottom view
12/3/09
FN6890.2
Removed ISL62882A device from data sheet.
11/4/09
FN6890.2
Converted to new Intersil template. On page 19, Modes of Operation section last paragraph Changed from "Rbias =
147kohm enables the overshoot reduction function and Rbias = 47kohm disables it" to "Rbias = 147kohm disables the
overshoot reduction function and Rbias = 47kohm enables it". Applied Intersil Standards as follows: Ordering information
with notes and links, Added bold verbiage to Electrical spec conditions for over-temp and bolded min and max value
columns. Pin Descriptions placed in Table.
8/24/09
FN6890.1
8/18/09 - See attached .doc file for changes.
7/10/09: Updated Figures 1, 2, 10, 11 and 27. Per Jia, “All the drawings have updated the way ISEN capacitors are
connected. They used to be connected to from ISEN to GND, now they are connected from ISEN to Vo. It’s an application
patch that helps to avoid false IBAL fault during phase dropping due to an IC design error.”
Changed “GND” to “VSUM-“ for pins 10 and 11 in table 5. Pin 10 now reads “A capacitor (C9) decouples it to VSUM-. Place
it in general proximity of the controller.” Pin 11 now reads “A capacitor (C10) decouples it to VSUM-. Place it in general
proximity of the controller.”
5/19/09: Changed under Recommended Operating Conditions- Battery Voltage VIN from "+5V to 21V" to "+5V to 25V"
04/01/09
