Device Description A. General The MAX1532 is a dual-phase, Quick-PWM™, step-down controllers for Intel IMVP™ CPU core supplies. Dual-phase operation reduces input ripple current requirements and output voltage ripple while easing component selection and layout difficulties. The Quick-PWM control scheme provides instantaneous response to fast load-current steps. The MAX1546 includes active voltage positioning with adjustable gain and offset, reducing power dissipation and bulk output capacitance requirements. The MAX1532 is intended for two different notebook CPU core applications: stepping down the battery directly or stepping down the 5V system supply to create the core voltage. The singlestage conversion method allows this device to directly step down high-voltage batteries for the highest possible efficiency. Alternatively, two-stage conversion (stepping down the 5V system supply instead of the battery) at a higher switching frequency provides the minimum possible physical size. The MAX1532 complies with the IMVP-IV™ specifications. The switching regulator features soft-start and power-up sequencing, with the MAX1532 automatically ramping up to the Intel IMVP-IV-specified boot voltage. The MAX1532/MAX1546/MAX1547 also feature independent four-level logic inputs for setting the suspend voltage (S0–S1). The MAX1532 includea output undervoltage protection, thermal protection, and voltage regulator power-OK (VROK) output. When any of these protection features detect a fault, the controller shuts down. Additionally, the MAX1532 includes overvoltage protection. The MA X1532 is available in lowprofile,40-pin 6mm x 6mm thin QFN packages. B.

C. Observed Outgoing Defect Rate: < 50 ppm D. Sampling Plan: Mil-Std-105D VI. Reliability Evaluation A. Accelerated Life Test The results of the 135°C biased (static) life test are shown in Table 1. Using these results, the Failure Rate (λ) is calculated as follows: λ= 1 = MTTF 1.83 192 x 4389 x 48 x 2 (Chi square value for MTTF upper limit) Temperature Acceleration factor assuming an activation energy of 0.8eV λ = 22.62 x 10-9 λ = 22.62 F.I.T. (60% confidence level @ 25°C) This low failure rate represents data collected from Maxim’s reliability monitor program. In addition to routine production Burn-In, Maxim pulls a sample from every fabrication process three times per week and subjects it to an extended Burn-In prior to shipment to ensure its reliability. The reliability control level for each lot to be shipped as standard product is 59 F.I.T. at a 60% confidence level, which equates to 3 failures in an 80 piece sample. Maxim performs failure analysis on any lot that exceeds this reliability control level. Attached Burn-In Schematic (Spec. # 06-6131) shows the static Burn-In circuit. Maxim also performs quarterly 1000 hour life test monitors. This data is published in the Product Reliability Report (RR-1M). B. Moisture Resistance Tests Maxim pulls pressure pot samples from every assembly process three times per week. Each lot sample must meet an LTPD = 20 or less before shipment as standard product. Additionally, the industry standard 85°C/85%RH testing is done per generic device/package family once a quarter. C. E.S.D. and Latch-Up Testing The PD38-1 die type has been found to have all pins able to withstand a transient pulse of ±1500V, per MilStd-883 Method 3015 (reference attached ESD Test Circuit). Latch-Up testing has shown that this device withstands a current of ±250mA.
