PT7720
Series
17 AMP 12V INPUT “BIG-HAMMER II” PROGRAMMABLE ISR
The PT7720 series is a new +12V input,
17A output, high-performance Integrated
Switching Regulator (ISR) housed in a 27pin SIP package. The 17A capability allows
easy integration of the latest high-speed,
low-voltage µPs and bus drivers into +12V
distributed power systems.
The PT7720 series has been designed
to work in parallel with one or more of the
PT7748 current boosters for increased Iout
in increments of 17A.
The output voltage of the PT7721 can
be easily programmed from 1.3V to 3.5V
with a 5 bit input compatible with Intel’s
Pentium IIProcessor. A differential remote sense is also provided which
automatically compensates for any voltage
drop from the ISR to the load.
1200µF of output capacitance is required for proper operation.

* ISR-will operate down to no load with reduced specifications. Please note that this product is not short-circuit protected.
** The PT7720 series can be easily paralleled with one or more of the PT7748 Current Boosters to provide increased output current in increments of 17A.
*** See Safe Operating Area chart.
Output Capacitors: The PT7720 series requires a minimum output capacitance of 1200µF for proper operation. Do not use Oscon type capacitors. The maximum allowable output capacitance
Is (57,000 ÷ Vout)µF, or 15,000µF, whichever is less.
Input Filter: An input inductor is optional for most applications. The input inductor must be sized to handle 7ADC with a typical value of 1µH. The input capacitance must be rated for a
minimum of 4.0 Arms of ripple current when operated at maximum output current and maximum output voltage. Contact an applications engineer for input capacitor selection for applications
at other output voltages and output currents.

Pin-Coded Output Voltage Adjustment on the
“Big Hammer II” Series ISRs
ming, doing so will degrade the load reglation of the product.
4. If active devices are used to ground the voltage control pins,
low-level open drain MOSFET devices should be used over
bipolar transistors. The inherent Vce (sat) in bipolar devices
introduces errors in the device’s internal divider network.
Discrete transistors such as the BSS138, 2N7002,
IRLML2402, or the 74C906 hex open-drain buffer are
examples of appropriate devices.
Power Trends PT7720 series ISRs incorporate pin-coded voltage control to adjust the ouput voltage. The control pins are
identified VID0 - VID4 (pins 1, 2, 3, 4, & 6) respectively.
When the control pins are left open-circuit, the ISR output will
regulate at its factory trimmed output voltage. Each pin is internally connected to a precision resistor, which when grounded
changes the output voltage by a set amount. By selectively
grounding VID0 -VID4, the output voltage of each ISR in the
PT7720 series ISRs can be programmed in incremental steps
over its specified output voltage range. The output voltage
ranges offered by these regulators provide a convenient method
of output voltage selection for many applications. In addition,
the program code and output voltage range of the PT7721
model ISR is compatible with the voltage ID specification defined by Intel Corporation for voltage regulator modules
(VRMs) used to power Pentium® microprocessors. Refer to
Figure 1 below for the connection schematic, and the PT7720
Data Sheet for the appropriate programming code information.
Active Voltage Programming:
Special precautions should be taken when making changes to the
voltage control progam code while the unit is powered. It is
highly recommended that the ISR be either powered down or
held in standby. Changes made to the program code while Vout
is enabled induces high current transients through the device.
This is the result of the electrolytic output capacitors being either charged or discharged to the new output voltage set-point.
The transient current can be minimized by making only incremental changes to the binary code, i.e. one LSB at a time. A
minimum of 100µs settling time between each program state is
also recommended. Making non-incremental changes to VID3
and VID4 with the output enabled is discouraged. If they are
changed, the transients induced can overstress the device resulting in a permanent drop in efficiency. If the use of active devices
prevents the program code being asserted prior to power-up,
pull pin 5 (STBY) to the device GND during the period that the
input voltage is applied to Vin. Releasing pin 5 will then allow
the device output to execute a soft-start power-up to the programmed voltage.
Notes:
1. The programming convention is as follows:Logic 0:
Logic 1:
Connect to pin12 (Remote Sense Ground).
Open circuit/open drain (See notes 2, & 4)
2. Do not connect pull-up resistors to the voltage programming pins.
3. To minimize output voltage error, always use pin 12 (Remote Sense Ground) as the logic “0” reference. While the
regular ground (pins 13-19) can also be used for program-
