NCP5210
3−in−1 PWM Dual Buck
and Linear DDR Power
Controller
The NCP5210, 3−in−1 PWM Dual Buck and Linear DDR Power
Controller, is a complete power solution for MCH and DDR memory.
This IC combines the efficiency of PWM controllers for the VDDQ
supply and the MCH core supply voltage with the simplicity of linear
regulator for the VTT termination voltage.
This IC contains two synchronous PWM buck controller for driving
four external N−Ch FETs to form the DDR memory supply voltage
(VDDQ) and the MCH regulator. The DDR memory termination
regulator (VTT) is designed to track at the half of the reference voltage
with sourcing and sinking current.
Protective features include, soft−start circuitry, undervoltage
monitoring of 5VDUAL and BOOT voltage, and thermal shutdown.
The device is housed in a thermal enhanced space−saving
QFN−20 package.

DETAILED OPERATION DESCRIPTIONS
General
S5−To−S0 Mode Power−Up Sequence
The NCP5210 3−In−1 PWM Dual Buck Linear DDR
Power Controller contains two high efficiency PWM
controllers and an integrated two−quadrant linear regulator.
The VDDQ supply is produced by a PWM switching
controller with two external N−Ch FETs. The VTT
termination voltage is an integrated linear regulator with
sourcing and sinking current capability which tracks at 1/2
VDDQ. The MCH core voltage is created by the secondary
switching controller.
The inclusion of soft−start, supply undervoltage monitors,
short circuit protection and thermal shutdown, makes this
device a total power solution for the MCH and DDR
memory system. This device is housed in a thermal
enhanced space−saving QFN−20 package.
The ACPI control logic is enabled by the assertion of
_VREFGD. Once the ACPI control is activated, the
powerup sequence starts by waking up the 5VDUAL
voltage monitor block. If the 5VDUAL supply is within the
preset levels, the BOOT under voltage monitor block is then
enabled. After 12VATX is ready and the BOOT UVLO is
asserted LOW, the ACPI control triggers this device from S5
shutdown mode into S0 normal operating mode by
activating the soft−start of DDQ switching regulator,
providing BUF_CUT remaining LOW.
Once the DDQ regulator is in regulation and the soft−start
interval is completed, the _INREGDDQ signal is asserted
HIGH to enable the VTT regulator as well as the V1P5
switching regulator.
ACPI Control Logic
DDQ Switching Regulator
The ACPI control logic is powered by the 5VDUAL
supply. External control is applied to the high impedance
CMOS input labeled BUF_CUT. This signal and two
internal under voltage detectors are used to determine the
operating mode according to the state diagram in Figure 17.
These UVLOs monitor the external supplies, 5VDUAL
and 12VATX, through 5VDUAL and BOOT pins
respectively. Two control signals, _5VDUALGD and
_BOOTGD, are asserted when the supply voltages are good.
The device is powered up initially in the S5 shutdown
mode to minimize the power consumption. When all three
supply voltages are good and BUF_CUT is LOW, the device
enters the S0 normal operating mode. Transition of
BUF_CUT from LOW to HIGH in S0 mode triggers the
device into S3 sleep mode. In S3 mode 12VATX supply
collapses. When BUF_CUT is deasserted the state will
change back to S0 mode. The IC can re−enter S5 mode by
removing one of the supplies during S0 mode. It should be
noted that transitions from S3 to S5 or vice versa are not
allowed. A timing diagram is shown in Figure 16.
Table 1 summarizes the operating states of all the
regulators, as well as the conditions of output pins.
In S0 mode the DDQ regulator is a switching synchronous
rectification buck controller driving two external power
N−Ch FETs to supply up to 20 A. It employs voltage mode
fixed frequency PWM control with external compensation
switching at 250kHz ± 13.2%. As shown in Figure 2, the
VDDQ output voltage is divided down and fed back to the
inverting input of an internal amplifier through the FBDDQ
pin to close the loop at VDDQ = VFBQ × (1 + R1/R2). This
amplifier compares the feedback voltage with an internal
reference voltage of 1.190 V to generate an error signal for
the PWM comparator. This error signal is compared with a
fixed frequency RAMP waveform derived from the internal
oscillator to generate a pulse−width−modulated signal. The
PWM signal drives the external N−Ch FETs via the
TG_DDQ and BG_DDQ pins. External inductor L and
capacitor COUT1 filter the output waveform. When the IC
leaves the S5 state, the VDDQ output voltage ramps up at a
soft−start rate controlled by the capacitor at the SS pin.
When the regulation of VDDQ is detected in S0 mode,
_INREGDDQ goes HIGH to notify the control block.
In S3 standby mode, the switching frequency is doubled
to reduce the conduction loss in the external N−Ch FETs.
Internal Bandgap Voltage Reference
An internal bandgap reference is generated whenever
5VDUAL exceeds 2.7 V. Once this bandgap reference is in
regulation, an internal signal _VREFGD is asserted.

NCP5210
at the half of DDQ_REF. This regulator is stable with any
value of output capacitor greater than 470 F, and is
insensitive to ESR ranging from 1−m to 400 m.
For enhanced efficiency, an active synchronous switch is
used to eliminate the conduction loss contributed by the
forward voltage of a diode or Schottky diode rectifier.
Adaptive non−overlap timing control of the complementary
gate drive output signals is provided to reduce
shoot−through current that degrades efficiency.
Fault Protection of VTT Active Terminator
To provide protection for the internal FETs, bi−directional
current limit preset at 2.4 A magnitude is implemented. The
VTT current limit provides a soft−start function during
startup.
Tolerance of VDDQ
Both the tolerance of VFBQ and the ratio of the external
resistor divider R1/R2 impact the precision of VDDQ. With
the control loop in regulation, VDDQ = VFBQ × (1 +
R1/R2). With a worst case (for all valid operating
conditions) VFBQ tolerance of ±1.5%, a worst case range of
±2% for VDDQ will be assured if the ratio R1/R2 is
specified as 1.100 ±1%.
MCH Switching Regulator
The secondary switching regulator is identical to the DDQ
regulator except the output is 10 A, no fault protection is
implemented and the soft−start timing is twice as fast with
respect to CSS.
BOOT Pin Supply Voltage
Fault Protection of VDDQ Regulator
In typical application, a flying capacitor is connected
between SWDDQ and BOOT pins. In S0 mode, 12VATX is
tied to BOOT pin through a Schottky diode as well. A 13−V
Zener clamp circuit must clamp this boot strapping voltage
produced by the flying capacitor in S0 mode.
In S3 mode the 12VATX is collapsed and the BOOT
voltage is created by the Schottky diode between 5VDUAL
and BOOT pins as well as the flying capacitor. The
BOOT_UVLO works specially. The _BOOTGD goes low
and the IC remains in S3 mode.
In S0 mode, an internal voltage (VOCP) = 5VDUAL – 0.8
sets the current limit for the high−side switch. The voltage
VOCP pin is compared to the voltage at SWDDQ pin when
the high−side gate drive is turned on after a fixed period of
blanking time to avoid false current limit triggering. When
the voltage at SWDDQ is lower than VOCP, an overcurrent
condition occurs and all regulators are latched off to protect
against overcurrent. The IC can be powered up again if one
of the supply voltages, 5VDUAL or 12VATX, is recycled.
The main purpose is for fault protection but not to be for an
precise current limit.
In S3 mode, this overcurrent protection feature is
disabled.
Thermal Consideration
Assuming an ambient temperature of 50°C, the maximum
allowed dissipated power of QFN−20 is 2.8 W, which is
enough to handle the internal power dissipation in S0 mode.
To take full advantage of the thermal capability of this
package, the exposed pad underneath must be soldered
directly onto a PCB metal substrate to allow good
thermal contact.
Feedback Compensation of VDDQ Regulator
The compensation network is shown in Figure 2.
VTT Active Terminator
The VTT active terminator is a 2 quadrant linear regulator
with two internal N−Ch FETs to provide current sink and
source capability up to 2.0 A. It is activated only when the
DDQ regulator is in regulation in S0 mode. It draws power
from VDDQ with the internal gate drive power derived from
5VDUAL. While VTT output is connecting to the FBVTT
pin directly, VTT voltage is designed to automatically track
Thermal Shutdown
When the chip junction temperature exceeds 145°C, the
entire IC is shutdown, until the junction temperature drops
below 120°C. Below which, the chip resumes normal
operation.

Figure 18. NCP5210 Typical Application Circuit

NCP5210
Application Circuit
Power MOSFET Selection
Figure 18 shows the typical application circuit for
NCP5210. The NCP5210 is specifically designed as a total
power solution for the MCH and DDR memory system. This
diagram contains NCP5210 for driving four external N−Ch
FETs to form the DDR memory supply voltage (VDDQ) and
the MCH regulator.
Power MOSFETs are chosen by balancing the cost with
the requirements for the current load of the memory system
and the efficiency of the converter provided. The selections
criteria can be based on the drain−to−source voltage,
drain−to−current, on−resistance RDS(on), and input gate
capacitance. Low RDS(on) and high drain−to−current power
MOSFETs are usually preferred to achieve the high current
requirement of the DDR memory system and MCH, as well
as the high efficiency of the converter. The tradeoff is a
corresponding increase in the input gate capacitor of the
power MOSFETs.
Output Inductor Selection
The value of the output inductor is chosen by balancing
ripple current with transient response capability. A value of
1.7 H will yield about 3.0 A peak−to−peak ripple current
when converting from 5.0 V to 2.5 V at 250 kHz. It is
important that the rated inductor current is not exceeded
during full load, and that the saturation current is not less
than the expected peak current. Low ESR inductors may be
required to minimize DC losses and temperature rises.
PCB Layout Consideration
With careful PCB layout the NCP5210 can supply 20 A or
more current. It is very important to use wide traces or large
copper shades to carry current from the input node through
the MOSFET switches, inductor, and to the output filters and
load. Reducing the length of high current nodes will reduce
losses and reduce parasitic inductance. It is usually best to
locate the input capacitors, the MOSFET switches, and the
output inductor in close proximity to reduce DC losses,
parasitic inductance and radiated EMI.
The sensitive voltage feedback and compensation
networks should be placed near NCP5210 and away from
the switch nodes and other noisy circuit elements. Placing
compensation components near each other will minimize
the loop area and further reduce noise susceptibility.
Input Capacitor Selection
Input capacitors for PWM power supplies are required to
provide a stable, low impedance source node for the buck
regulator to convert from. The usual practice is to use a
combination of electrolytic capacitors and multi−layer
ceramic capacitors to provide bulk capacitance and high
frequency noise suppression. It is important that the
capacitors are rated to handle the AC ripple current at the
input of the buck regulators, as well as the input voltage. In
the NCP5210 the DDQ and MCH regulators are interleaved
(out of phase by 180°) to reduce the peak AC input current.
Optional Boost Voltage Configuration
Output Capacitor Selection
The charge pump circuit in Figure 19 can be used instead
of boost voltage scheme of Figure 18. The advantage in
Figure 19 is the elimination of the requirement for the Zener
clamp. The tradeoff is slightly less boost voltage and a
corresponding increase in MOSFET conduction losses.
Output capacitors are chosen by balancing the cost with
the requirements for low output ripple voltage and transient
voltage. Low ESR electrolytic capacitors can be effective at
reducing ripple voltage at 250 kHz. Low ESR ceramic
capacitors are most effective at reducing output voltage
excursions caused by fast load steps of system memory and
the memory controller.
