PT8139—12V 30-A Programmable Integrated Switching Regulator SLTS156 (3/8/2002) Features • • • • • • Single Device: 30ADC • +12-V Input • Programmable Output Voltage: 1.7V to 4.0V via 5-Bit Code • Multiphase Topology • High Efficiency: 92% @3.3V • Output Remote Sense Description Short-Circuit Protection Thermal Shutdown Standby On/Off Control Space-Saving Package Solderable Copper Case Ordering Information The PT8139 Excalibur™ module is a high performance integrated switching regulator (ISR), housed in a solderable, 31-pin space-saving copper package. Operating from an input voltage of +12V, the module provides up to 30A of power over a range of low-output voltages. The PT8139 incorporates a stateof-the-art 2-phase multiple power path. This topology extends the output current range while improving both the transient response and input current ripple. The PT8139 output voltage is programmable over the voltage range, 1.7V to 4.0V, via a 5-bit input code. This makes the PT8139 an ideal power source for many highly integrated digital systems that demand a high power supply current at low voltages. The PT8139 features include short-circuit protection, thermal shutdown, a Standby (On/Off) control, and a remote sense to compensate for voltage drop between the regulator and the load.

(2) The Standby input (pin 6) has an internal pull-up. If it is left open-circuit the PT812x will operate when input power is applied. A low-leakage MOSFET is recommended to control this input. The open-circuit voltage is nominally 5V. See application notes for interface considerations. (3) For operation below 0°C, Cout must have stable characteristics. Use either low ESR tantalum or Oscon® capacitors. (4) See safe Operating Area curves or consult factory for the appropriate derating. (5) The PT8120 regulators require a minimum of 660µF, low ESR ouput capacitance (1,200µF for standard aluminum electrolytic) for proper operation. (6) The case pins on the through-hole package types (suffixes N & A) must be soldered. For more information see the applicable package outline drawing. Input Filter: An input filter inductor is optional for most applications. The inductor must be rated to handle the projected input current. A rating of 10ADC for Vout ≤3.3V, and 15ADC for V out ≥4.5V is recommended. The input capacitance must be rated for a minimum of 1.6Arms of ripple current. For transient or dynamic load applications, additional capacitance may be required.

Ripple current and Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) values are the major considerations along with temperature when selecting the proper capacitor. The tantalum capacitors listed below cannot be used on the input bus since they are not rated for 12V operation. Output Capacitors The minimum required output capacitance is 660µF (organic/polymer), or 1,200 (aluminum electrolytic) with a maximum ESR less than or equal to 50mΩ. Failure to observe this requirement may lead to regulator instability or oscillation. Electrolytic capacitors have poor ripple performance at frequencies greater than 400kHz, but excellent low frequency transient response. Above the ripple frequency ceramic decoupling capacitors are necessary to improve the transient response and reduce any microprocessor high frequency noise components apparent during higher current excursions. Preferred low ESR type capacitor part numbers are identified in the Table 1 below. Tantalum Characteristics Tantalum capacitors are recommended on the output bus but only AVX TPS Series, Sprague 593D/594/595 Series, or Kemet T495/T510,520 Series. These capacitors are recommended over other types due to their higher surge current, excellent power dissipation and ripple current ratings. As a caution, the TAJ Series by AVX is not recommended. This series exhibits considerably higher ESR, reduced power dissipation and lower ripple current capability. The TAJ Series is also less reliable compared to the TPS series when determining power dissipation capability. Capacitor Table Table 1 identifies the characteristics of capacitors from a number of vendors with acceptable ESR and ripple current (rms) ratings. The suggested minimum quantities per regulator for both the input and output buses are identified. This is not an extensive capacitor list. Capacitors from other vendors are available with comparable specifications. Those listed are for guidance. The RMS ripple current rating and ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance at 100kHz) are the critical parameters are necessary to insure both optimum regulator performance and long capacitor life.

For technical support and more information, see inside back cover or visit www.ti.com Application Notes PT8120 Series & PT8139 Using the On/Off Standby Function of the PT8120 Series of Programmable ISRs The PT8120 series of programmable ISRs incorporates an On/Off Standby function. This feature may be used to turn the regulated output of the module off while input voltage is applied. This places the module in “standby” mode. The standby control may be used for power-up sequencing, or wherever there is a requirement to control the module’s output status from another circuit. 2. In the standby mode the output of the regulator is tristate, and the output voltage falls at the rate that the load circuit discharges the output filter capacitors. 3. When the ground signal to the Standby pin is removed, the regulator output initiates a soft-start cycle by first asserting a low impedance to ground. If an external voltage is applied to the output bus, it will sink current and possibly over-stress the part. The Standby function is provided by the STBY* control, pin 6. If pin 6 is left open-circuit the regulator operates normally, providing a regulated output when a valid supply voltage is applied to Vin (pins 10-16) with respect to GND (pins 17-22). Connecting pin 6 to ground 1 places the regulator in standby mode 2, and reduces the input current to typically 35mA. Applying a ground signal to pin 6 prior to power-up, will inhibit the output during the period that input power is applied. When the ground signal to pin 6 is removed, the regulator initiates a softstart to re-establish the set output voltage. 3 To ensure that the regulator output is properly enabled, the STBY* control pin must be open circuit. Table 1 Standby Control Requirements 2 Parameter Min Typ V IH — V IL –0.2V Turn-On Time Turning Q 1 in Figure 1 off, removes the low-voltage signal at pin 6. After approximately 5-ms the regulator output rises and reaches full regulation within 40ms. Fig. 2 shows the typical waveforms of a PT8121 following the prompt turn-off of Q1. The turn-off of Q1 corresponds to the rise in Vstby. The output voltage was set to 3.3V, and the waveforms were measured with a 12V input source, and 18A resistive load. Figure 2 Max Open Cct. 1 — I STBY 0.8V –0.5mA Vo (1V/Div) Notes: 1. The standby on a PT8120 series regulators must be controlled with an open-collector (or open-drain) transistor (See fig. 1). Do Not use a pull-up resistor. Table 1 gives the STBY* pin parameters. The control pin has an open-circuit voltage of 5Vdc. To shut the regulator output off, the control pin must be “pulled” to less than 0.8Vdc with a low-impedance sink to ground.

If active devices are used to ground the voltage control pins, low-level open drain MOSFETs should be used over bipolar transistors. The inherent Vce(sat) in bipolar devices introduces errors in the device’s internal voltage control circuit. Discrete transistors such as the BSS138, 2N7002, IRLML2402, are examples of appropriate devices. The PT8120 series of Excalibur® ISRs incorporate a pin-coded output voltage control. These regulators must be programmed to a specific output voltage from a preset range defined by the regulator model. Programming is achieved by selectively connecting the control inputs, “VID0–VID4” (pins 1–5), to the “VID Common” (pin 11). 1 The programming code and voltage range for each model is defined in the data sheet. Refer to the PT8120 Series data sheet for more information. The program codes for the PT8121, PT8122, and PT8124 models are also compatible with some of the “Voltage ID” codes defined by Intel’s® VRM specifications. Figure 1 shows the pin-strap connections for selecting the desired output voltage from the program code range. Active Voltage Programming: Special precautions should be taken when making changes to the voltage control progam code while the output is active. It is recommended that the ISR be powered down or held placed in standby. Changes made to the program code while Vout is active 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. The transients induced may activate the module’s over-current protection. If the program code cannot be asserted prior to power-up, pull pin 6, STBY*, to GND during the period that the input voltage is applied. The release of pin 6 will then to allow the device to initiate a soft-start power-up to the program voltage. Notes: 1. The programming convention is as follows:Logic 0: Connect to pin 11 (VID Common). Logic 1: 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, use pin 11 (VID Common) as the logic “0” reference. If the regulator is used to power a VRM compatible microprocessor this may not be practical. In this case connect pin 11 to pins 17–22, or the ground plane close to the regulator.
