Small, 8-Lead SOIC Package
The ADM1051/ADM1051A are dual, precision, voltage regulator controllers intended for power rail generation and active bus
termination on personal computer motherboards. They contain a
precision 1.2 V bandgap reference and two channels consisting of
control amplifiers driving external power devices. Each channel
has a shutdown input to turn off amplifier output and Hiccup
Mode protection circuitry for the external power device. The
shutdown input on the 1.5 V channel can also be used with the
TYPEDET signal on a PC motherboard to select the output voltage.
The ADM1051/ADM1051A operate from a 12 V supply, which
gives sufficient headroom for the amplifiers to drive external
N-channel MOSFETs, operating as source-followers, as the
external series pass devices. This has the advantage that Nchannel devices are cheaper than P-channel devices of similar
performance, and the circuit is easier to stabilize than one using
P-channel devices in a common-source configuration.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The ADM1051/ADM1051A are dual, precision, voltage regulator
controllers intended for power rail generation and active bus termination in AGP and ICH applications on personal computer
motherboards. They contain a precision 1.2 V bandgap reference and two almost identical channels consisting of control
amplifiers driving external power devices. The main difference
between the two channels is the regulated output voltage, defined
by the resistor ratios on the voltage sense inputs of each channel.
Channel 1 has an output of nominally 1.515 V, but can be
switched to a 3.3 V output, while Channel 2 has a nominal
output of 1.818 V. Channel 1 is also optimized for driving
MOSFETs with lower on-resistance and higher gate capacitance, as explained later.
CONTROL AMPLIFIERS
The reference voltage is amplified and buffered by the control
amplifiers and external MOSFETs, the output voltage of each
channel being determined by the feedback resistor network
between the sense input and the inverting input of the control
amplifier.
The two control amplifiers in the ADM1051/ADM1051A are
almost identical, apart, from the ratios of the feedback resistor
networks on the sense inputs. A power-on reset circuit disables
the amplifier output until VCC has risen above the reset threshold (not Channel 2 of ADM1051A).
Each amplifier output drives the gate of an N-channel power
MOSFET, whose drain is connected to the unregulated supply
input and whose source is the regulated output voltage, which is
also fed back to the appropriate sense input of the ADM1051/
ADM1051A. The control amplifiers have high current-drive
capability so they can quickly charge and discharge the gate
capacitance of the external MOSFET, thus giving good transient
response to changes in load or input voltage. In particular,
Channel 1 is optimized to drive MOSFETs with very low on
resistance and correspondingly higher gate capacitance such as
the PHD55N03LT from Philips. This is to minimize voltage
drop across the MOSFET when Channel 1 is used in 3.3 V
mode, as explained later.
Each channel has a shutdown input to turn off amplifier output
and protection circuitry for the external power device. The
shutdown input of Channel 1 has additional functionality as
described later.
The ADM1051A has some minor differences from the ADM1051
to support power-supply sequencing and voltage requirements
of some I/O control hub chipsets, which dictate that the 1.818 V
rail must never be more than 2 V below the 3.3 V rail.
The ADM1051/ADM1051A operates from a 12 V VCC supply.
The outputs are disabled until VCC climbs above the Power-On
Reset threshold (6 V–9 V). POR does not apply to Channel 2 of
the ADM1051A. This output will begin to rise as soon as there
is sufficient gate drive to turn on the external MOSFET.
SHUTDOWN INPUTS AND TYPEDET COMPATIBILITY
Each channel has a separate shutdown input, which may be
controlled by a logic signal, and allows the output of the regulator to be turned on or off. If the shutdown input is held high or
not connected, the regulator operates normally. If the shutdown
input is held low, the enable input of the control amplifier is turned
off and the amplifier output goes low, turning off the regulator.
The outputs from the ADM1051/ADM1051A are used to drive
external N-channel MOSFETs, operating as source-followers.
This has the advantage that N-channel devices are cheaper than
P-channel devices of similar performance, and the circuit is easier
to stabilize than one using P-channel devices in a commonsource configuration.
The SHDN1 input on Channel 1 has additional functionality that
can be controlled by the TYPEDET signal on PC motherboards.
The external power devices are protected by a “Hiccup Mode”
circuit that operates if the circuit goes out of regulation due to
an output short-circuit. In this case the power device is pulsed
on/off with a 1:40 duty-cycle to limit the power dissipation until
the fault condition is removed. Again, to prevent Channel 2
falling more than 2 V below Channel 1, Hiccup Mode does not
operate on Channel 2 of the ADM1051A.
The AGP bus on a PC motherboard can have two different modes
of operation, requiring different regulated voltages of 3.3 V or
1.5 V. These two modes are signaled by the TYPEDET signal on
the PC motherboard, as follows:
TYPEDET = 0 V – Regulated Voltage 1.5 V (4× AGP Graphics)
TYPEDET Floating – Regulated Voltage 3.3 V (2× AGP Graphics)
–6–
REV. 0
ADM1051/ADM1051A
For compatibility with the TYPEDET signal, the regulator output
voltage of Channel 1 may be selected using the Shutdown pin.
This is a multilevel, dual-function input that allows selection of
the regulator output voltage as well as shutdown of the regulator.

If the SHDN1 pin is connected to a voltage greater than 6.2 V,
or simply left open-circuit, the regulator will operate normally
and provide 1.5 V out. This allows the regulator to operate
normally with no external connection to SHDN1.
If the SHDN1 pin is connected to a voltage between 4.3 V and
5.3 V, the FORCE output will be high and the external MOSFET
will be turned hard on, making the output voltage equal to the 3.3 V
input (less any small drop due to the on-resistance of the MOSFET).
In this mode it is not actually regulating, but simply acting as a
switch for the 3.3 V supply. The voltage drop across the Channel 1
MOSFET in Mode 3 can be minimized by using a MOSFET
with very low on resistance, for which Channel 1 is optimized,
such as the PHD55N03LT.

HICCUP MODE FAULT PROTECTION
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Hiccup Mode Fault Protection is a simple method of protecting
the external power device without the added cost of external sense
resistors or a current sense pin on the ADM1051/ADM1051A. In
the event of a short-circuit condition at the output, the output
voltage will fall. When the output voltage of a channel falls
20% below the nominal voltage, this is sensed by the hiccup comparator and the channel will go into Hiccup Mode, where the
enable signal to the control amplifier is pulsed on and off
with a 1:40 duty cycle. As mentioned earlier, Hiccup Mode
does not operate on Channel 2 of the ADM1051A.
PCB LAYOUT
For optimum voltage regulation, the loads should be placed as
close as possible to the source of the output MOSFETs and
feedback to the sense inputs should be taken from a point as
close to the loads as possible. The PCB tracks from the loads
back to the sense inputs should be separate from the output
tracks and not carry any load current.
Similarly, the ground connection to the ADM1051/ADM1051A
should be made as close as possible to the ground of the loads, and
the ground track from the loads to the ADM1051/ADM1051A
should not carry load current. Good and bad layout practice is
illustrated in Figure 5.
To prevent the device inadvertently going into Hiccup Mode during power-up or during channel enabling, the Hiccup Mode is
held off for approximately 60 ms on both channels. By this time
the output voltage should have reached its correct value. In the
case of power-up, the hold-off period starts when VCC reaches
the power-on reset threshold of 6 V–9 V. In the case of channel
enabling, the hold-off period starts when SHDN is taken high.
Note that the hold-off timeout applies to both channels even if
only one channel is disabled/enabled.

As the 3.3 V input to the drain of the MOSFET is not monitored,
it should ideally rise at the same or a faster rate than VCC. At the
very least it must be available in time for VOUT to reach its final
value before the end of the power-on delay. If the output voltage
is still less than 80% of the correct value after the power-on delay,
the device will go into Hiccup Mode until the output voltage
exceeds 80% of the correct value during a Hiccup Mode onperiod. Of course, if there is a fault condition at the output
during power-up, the device will go into Hiccup Mode after the
power-up delay and remain there until the fault condition is
removed.

The effect of power-on delay is illustrated in Figure 4. This shows
an ADM1051/ADM1051A being powered up with a fault
condition. The output current rises to a very high value during the power-on delay, then the device goes into Hiccup Mode
and the output is pulsed on and off at 1:40 duty cycle. When the
fault condition is removed, the output voltage recovers to its
normal value at the end of the Hiccup Mode off period.

The load current at which the ADM1051/ADM1051A will go
into Hiccup Mode is determined by three factors:
Figure 5. Good and Bad Layout Practice
• the input voltage to the drain of the MOSFET, VIN
• the output voltage VOUT (–20%)
• the on-resistance of the MOSFET, RON
IHICCUP = (VIN – (0.8 × VOUT))/RON
It should be emphasized that the Hiccup Mode is not intended
as a precise current limit but as a simple method of protecting
the external MOSFET against catastrophic fault conditions such
as output short-circuits.

decoupled as close as possible to the drain pin of the device, with
at least 100 µF to ground. The output from the source of the
MOSFET should be decoupled as close as possible to the source
pin of the device. Decoupling capacitors should be chosen to have
a low Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR), typically 50 mΩ or
lower. With the MOSFETs specified, and two 100 µF capacitors
in parallel, the circuit will be stable for load currents up to 2 A.
The VCC pin of the ADM1051/ADM1051A should be decoupled
with at least 1 µF to ground, connected as close as possible to
the VCC and GND pins.
Some I/O control hub chipsets have power-supply sequencing
requirements, which dictate that the 1.818 V supply must never
be more than 2 V below the 3.3 V supply. This requirement can
be met using the ADM1051A, as shown in Figure 7. In this
circuit, VCC is supplied from the 5 V standby rail (5 VSB) and
from the 12 V rail via Schottky diodes. 5 VSB is always present
when ac power is supplied to the system, so the ADM1051A is
powered up, but VCC is below the POR threshold. When the main
power supplies are turned on, the Channel 2 output will rise at
the same rate as the 3.3 V rail until it regulates at 1.818 V. The
12 V supply will take over from 5 VSB when it exceeds the 5 VSB
rail, and Channel 1 will then be subject to the POR delay. This
ensures that Channel 2 can never be more than 2 V below
Channel 1.
In practice, the amount of decoupling required will depend on
the application. PC motherboards are notoriously noisy environments, and it may be necessary to employ distributed decoupling
to achieve acceptable noise levels on the supply rails.

CHOICE OF MOSFET
As previously discussed, the load current at which an output goes
into Hiccup Mode depends on the on resistance of the external
MOSFET. If the on resistance is too low, this current may be
very high; if the on resistance is high, the trip current may be
lower than the maximum required load current. For the primary
application of AGP and ICH power supplies and bus termination on personal computer motherboards, devices with very
low on resistance, such as the PHD55N03LT from Philips,
or the SUB60N06-18 from Siliconix, are suitable. For Channel 2,
suitable devices are the MTD3055VL from Motorola and the
PHB11N06LT from Philips.
THERMAL CONSIDERATIONS
Heat generated in the external MOSFET must be dissipated
and the junction temperature of the device kept within acceptable limits. The power dissipated in the device is, of course, the
drain-source voltage multiplied by the load current. The required
thermal resistance to ambient is given by
␪JA = TJ(MAX) – TAMB(MAX)/(VDS(MAX) × IOUT(MAX))
Surface-mount MOSFETs, such as those specified, must rely on
heat conduction through the device leads and the PCB. One
square inch of copper (645 sq. mm) gives a thermal resistance
of around 60°C/W for an SOT-223 surface-mount package and
80°C/W for an SO-8 surface-mount package.
For high power dissipation that can be accommodated by a
surface-mount package, D2PAK or TO-220 devices are recommended. These should be mounted on a heat sink with a
thermal resistance low enough to maintain the required maximum junction temperature.
