FEATURES

Small package: SMD/TH: 30.85 x 20.0 x 8.2 mm

(1.30 x 0.30 x 0.713 in)
PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Synchonization & phase spreading
The OKDx-T/50-W12 series are high efficiency, digital point-of-Load (PoL) DC-DC
power converters capable of delivering
50A/165W. Available in three different package formats, through-hole, single-in-line,
and surface mount, these converters have a
typical efficiency of 97.2%. PMBus™ compatibility allows monitoring and configuration of
critical system-level performance require-
ments. Apart from standard PoL performance
and safety features like OVP, OCP, OTP, and
UVLO, these digital converters have advanced
features: digital current sharing (full power,
no derating), non-linear transient response,
optimized dead time control, synchronization,
and phase spreading. These converters are
ideal for use in telecommunications, networking, and distributed power applications.

Layout Recommendations
The radiated EMI performance of the product will depend on the PWB
layout and ground layer design. It is also important to consider the standoff of the product. If a ground layer is used, it should be connected to the
output of the product and the equipment ground or chassis.
Power Management Overview
This product is equipped with a PMBus interface. The product incorporates a wide range of readable and configurable power management
features that are simple to implement with a minimum of external
components. Additionally, the product includes protection features
that continuously safeguard the load from damage due to unexpected
system faults. A fault is also shown as an alert on the SALERT pin.
The following product parameters can continuously be monitored by a
host: Input voltage, output voltage/current, and internal temperature. If
the monitoring is not needed it can be disabled and the product enters
a low power mode reducing the power consumption. The protection
features are not affected.
The product is delivered with a default configuration suitable
for a wide range operation in terms of input voltage, output voltage, and load. The configuration is stored in an internal Non-Volatile
Memory (NVM). All power management functions can be reconfigured
using the PMBus interface. Please contact your local Murata Power
Solutions representative for design support of custom configurations or appropriate SW tools for design and download of your own
configurations.
Input Voltage
The input voltage range, 4.5 - 14 V, makes the product easy to use in
intermediate bus applications when powered by a non-regulated bus
converter or a regulated bus converter. See Ordering Information for
input voltage range.
A ground layer will increase the stray capacitance in the PWB
and improve the high frequency EMC performance.

Input Under Voltage Lockout, UVLO
The product monitors the input voltage and will turn-on and turn-off at
configured levels. The default turn-on input voltage level setting is 4.20 V,
whereas the corresponding turn-off input voltage level is 3.85 V. Hence,
the default hysteresis between turn-on and turn-off input voltage is 0.35 V.
Once an input turn-off condition occurs, the device can respond in a
number of ways as follows:
1.
Continue operating without interruption. The unit will continue to
operate as long as the input voltage can be supported. If the input
voltage continues to fall, there will come a point where the unit will
cease to operate.
2.
Continue operating for a given delay period, followed by shutdown if
the fault still exists. The device will remain in shutdown until
instructed to restart.
I inputRMS = I load D (1–D),
where I load is the output load current and D is the duty cycle. The
maximum load ripple current becomes I load 2 . The ripple current is
divided into three parts, i.e., currents in the input source, external input
capacitor, and internal input capacitor. How the current is divided depends
on the impedance of the input source, ESR and capacitance values in the
capacitors. A minimum capacitance of 300 μF with low ESR is
recommended. The ripple current rating of the capacitors must follow
Eq. 1. For high-performance/transient applications or wherever the input
source performance is degraded, additional low ESR ceramic type
capacitors at the input is recommended. The additional input low ESR
capacitance above the minimum level insures an optimized performance.
Output capacitors:
When powering loads with significant dynamic current requirements, the
voltage regulation at the point of load can be improved by addition of
decoupling capacitors at the load.
The default response from a turn-off is an immediate shutdown of the
The most effective technique is to locate low ESR ceramic and electrolytic
device. The device will continuously check for the presence of the fault
capacitors as close to the load as possible, using several capacitors in
condition. If the fault condition is no longer present, the product will be reenabled. The turn-on and turn-off levels and response can be reconfigured parallel to lower the effective ESR. The ceramic capacitors will handle highfrequency dynamic load changes while the electrolytic capacitors are used
using the PMBus interface.

also reduce high frequency noise at the load.

Control Loop
The product uses a voltage-mode synchronous buck controller with a fixed
frequency PWM scheme. Although the product uses a digital control loop, it
operates much like a traditional analog PWM controller. As in the analog
controller case, the control loop compares the output voltage to the desired
voltage reference and compensation is added to keep the loop stable and
fast. The resulting error signal is used to drive the PWM logic. Instead of
using external resistors and capacitors required with traditional analog
control loops, the product uses a digital Proportional-Integral-Derivative
(PID) compensator in the control loop. The characteristics of the control
loop is configured by setting PID compensation parameters. These PID
settings can be reconfigured using the PMBus interface.
Dynamic Loop Compensation (DLC)
The DLC feature might in some documents be referred to as “Auto
Compensation” or “Auto Tuning” feature.
The DLC feature measures the characteristics of the power train and
calculates the proper compensator PID coefficients.
The default configuration is that once the output voltage ramp up has
completed, the DLC algorithm will begin and a new optimized
compensator solution (PID setting) will be found and implemented. The
DLC algorithm typically takes between 50 ms and 200 ms to complete.
By the PMBus command AUTO_COMP_CONFIG the user may select
between several different modes of operation:
x
x
x
x
Disable
Autocomp once, will run DLC algorithm each time the output is
enabled (default configuration)
Autocomp every second will initiate a new DLC algorithm each 1
second
Autocomp every minute will initiate a new DLC algorithm every
minute.
The DLC can also be configured to run once only after the first ramp up
(after input power have been applied) and to use that temporary stored PID
settings in all subsequent ramps. If input power is cycled a new DLC
algorithm will be performed after the first ramp up. The default setting is
however to run the DLC algorithm after every ramp up.
The DLC algorithm can also be initiated manually by sending the
AUTO_COMP_CONTROL command.
The DLC can also be configured with Auto Comp Gain Control. This scales
the DLC results to allow a trade-off between transient response and
steady-state duty cycle jitter. A setting of 100% will provide the fastest
transient response while a setting of 10% will produce the lowest jitter.
The default is 50%.
Changing DLC and PID Setting
Some caution must be considered while DLC is enabled and when it is
changed from enabled or disabled.
When operating, the controller IC uses the settings loaded in its (volatile)
RAM memory. When the input power is applied the RAM settings are
retrieved from the pin-strap resistors and the two non-volatile memories
(DEFAULT and USER). The sequence is described in the “Initialization
Procedure” section.
When DLC is enabled:
When DLC is enabled, the normal sequence (after input power has been
applied) that a value stored in the user non-volatile memory overwrites any
previously loaded value does not apply for the PID setting (stored in the
PID_TAPS register). The PID setting in the user non-volatile memory is
ignored and a non-configurable default PID setting is loaded to RAM to act
as a safe starting value for the DLC. Once the output has been enabled and
the DLC algorithm has found a new optimized PID setting, it will be loaded
in RAM and used by the control loop.
When saving changes to the user non-volatile memory, all changes made
to the content of RAM will be saved. This also includes the default PID
setting (loaded to RAM to act as a safe starting value) or the PID setting
changed by the DLC algorithm after enabling output. The result is that as
long as DLC is enabled the PID setting in the user non-volatile memory is
ignored, but it might accidentally get overwritten.
When changing DLC from disabled to enabled:
A non-configurable default PID setting is loaded to RAM to act as a safe
starting value for the DLC (same as above).
When changing DLC from enabled to disabled:
When changing DLC from enabled to disabled, the PID setting in the user
non-volatile memory will be loaded to RAM. Any new optimized PID setting
in RAM will be lost, if not first stored to the user non-volatile memory.
When DLC is disabled:
When DLC is disabled and input power has been applied, the PID setting in
the user non-volatile memory will be loaded to RAM and used in the control
loop.
The original PID setting in the user non-volatile memory is quite slow and
not recommended for optimal performance. If DLC is disabled it is
recommended to either:
1. Use the DLC to find optimized PID setting.
2. Use Ericsson Power Designer to find appropriate PID setting.
3. Use Universal PID as defined below.
The Universal PID setting (taps) is:

Note that if DLC is enabled, for best results VI must be stable before
DLC algorithm begins.
Load Transient Response Optimization
The product incorporates a Non-Linear transient Response, NLR, loop
that decreases the response time and the output voltage deviation
during a load transient. The NLR results in a higher equivalent loop
bandwidth than is possible using a traditional linear control loop. The
product is pre-configured with appropriate NLR settings for robust and
stable operation for a wide range of input voltage and a capacitive
load range as defined in the section External Decoupling Capacitors.
For an application with a specific input voltage, output voltage, and
capacitive load, the NLR configuration can be optimized for a robust
and stable operation and with an improved load transient response.
This will also reduce the amount of output decoupling capacitors and
yield a reduced cost. However, the NLR slightly reduces the efficiency. In order to obtain maximal energy efficiency the load transient
requirement has to be met by the standard control loop compensation
and the decoupling capacitors. The NLR settings can be reconfigured
using the PMBus interface.
Remote Sense
The product has remote sense that can be used to compensate for
voltage drops between the output and the point of load. The sense
traces should be located close to the PWB ground layer to reduce
noise susceptibility. Due to derating of internal output capacitance
the voltage drop should be kept below VDROPMAX = (5.5–VO)/2. A large
voltage drop will impact the electrical performance of the regulator. If
the remote sense is not needed, +S should be connected to VOUT and
−S should be connected to GND.

start-up. Changing the resistor value during normal operation will
not change the output voltage. The input voltage must be at least 1
V larger than the output voltage in order to deliver the correct output
voltage. See Ordering Information for output voltage range.

Output Voltage Adjust using PMBus
The output voltage set by pin-strap can be overridden by configuration
file or by using a PMBus command. See Electrical Specification for
adjustment range.
When setting the output voltage by configuration file or by a PMBus
command, the specified output voltage accuracy is valid only when
the set output voltage level falls within the same bin range as the
voltage level defined by the pin-strap resistor RSET. The applicable bin
ranges are defined in the table below. Valid accuracy for voltage levels
outside the applicable bin range is two times the specified.
Example:
Nominal VO is set to 1.10 V by RSET = 26.1 kΩ. 1.10 V falls within the
bin range 0.988-1.383 V, thus specified accuracy is valid when adjusting VO within 0.988-1.383V.

Output Voltage Range Limitation
The output voltage range that is possible to set by configuration or
by the PMBus interface is limited by the pin-strap resistor RSET. The
maximum output voltage is set to 110% of the nominal output value
defined by RSET, VO,MAX = 1.1 x VO,RSET. This protects the load from an
over voltage due to an accidental wrong PMBus command.
The following table shows recommended resistor values for RSET.
Maximum 1% tolerance resistors are required.

Output Voltage Adjust Limitation using PMBus
In addition to the maximum output voltage limitation by the pin-strap
resistor RSET, there is also a limitation in how much the output voltage can be increased while the output is enabled. If output is disabled
then RSET resistor is the only limitation.
falls below 85% of the nominal voltage. These limits may be changed
via the PMBus interface. A PG delay period is defined as the time from
when all conditions within the product for asserting PG are met to
when the PG signal is actually asserted. The default PG delay is set to
10 ms. This value can be reconfigured using the PMBus interface.
Example:
If the output is enabled with output voltage set to 1.0 V, then it is only
possible to adjust/change the output voltage up to 1.7- V as long as
the output is enabled.
For products with DLC the PG signal is by default asserted directly
after the DLC operation have been completed. If DLC is disabled the
configured PG delay will be used. This can be reconfigured using the
PMBus interface.

Over Voltage Protection (OVP)
The product includes over voltage limiting circuitry for protection
of the load. The default OVP limit is 15% above the nominal output
voltage. If the output voltage exceeds the OVP limit, the product can
respond in different ways:
1. Initiate an immediate shutdown until the fault has been cleared.
The user can select a specific number of retry attempts.
2. Turn off the high-side MOSFET and turn on the low-side MOSFET.
The low-side MOSFET remains ON until the device attempts a
restart, i.e. the output voltage is pulled to ground level (crowbar
function).
The default response from an overvoltage fault is to immediately
shut down as in 2. The device will continuously check for the presence of the fault condition, and when the fault condition no longer
exists the device will be re-enabled. For continuous OVP when
operating from an external clock for synchronization, the only allowed
response is an immediate shutdown. The OVP limit and fault response
can be reconfigured using the PMBus interface.
Under Voltage Protection (UVP)
The product includes output under voltage limiting circuitry for
protection of the load. The default UVP limit is 15% below the nominal
output voltage. The UVP limit can be reconfigured using the PMBus
interface.
Power Good
The product provides a Power Good (PG) flag in the Status Word register that indicates the output voltage is within a specified tolerance
of its target level and no fault condition exists. If specified in section
Connections, the product also provides a PG signal output. The PG pin
is active high and by default open-drain but may also be configured
as push-pull via the PMBus interface.
By default, the PG signal will be asserted when the output reaches
above 90% of the nominal voltage, and de-asserted when the output
Switching Frequency
The fundamental switching frequency is 320 kHz, which yields
optimal power efficiency. The switching frequency can be set to any
value between 200 kHz and 640 kHz using the PMBus interface. The
switching frequency will change the efficiency/power dissipation,
load transient response and output ripple. For optimal control loop
performance in a product without DLC, the control loop must be reoptimized when changing the switching frequency.
Synchronization
Synchronization is a feature that allows multiple products to be synchronized to a common frequency. Synchronized products powered
from the same bus eliminate beat frequencies reflected back to the
input supply, and also reduces EMI filtering requirements. Eliminating
the slow beat frequencies (usually <10 kHz) allows the EMI filter to be
designed to attenuate only the synchronization frequency. Synchronization can also be utilized for phase spreading, described in section
Phase Spreading.
The products can be synchronized with an external oscillator or one
product can be configured with the SYNC pin as a SYNC Output working as a master driving the synchronization. All others on the same
synchronization bus must be configured with SYNC Input. Default
configuration is using the internal clock, independently of signal at the
SYNC pin.
Phase Spreading
When multiple products share a common DC input supply, spreading
of the switching clock phase between the products can be utilized.
This dramatically reduces input capacitance requirements and efficiency losses, since the peak current drawn from the input supply is
effectively spread out over the whole switch period. This requires that
the products are synchronized. Up to 16 different phases can be used.
The phase spreading of the product can be configured using the
PMBus interface.
Parallel Operation (Current Sharing)
Paralleling multiple products can be used to increase the output current capability of a single power rail. By connecting the GCB pins of
each device and configuring the devices as a current sharing rail, the
units will share the current equally, enabling up to 100% utilization of
the current capability for each device in the current sharing rail. The
product uses a low-bandwidth, first-order digital current sharing by

aligning the output voltage of the slave devices to deliver the same
current as the master device. Artificial droop resistance is added to
the output voltage path to control the slope of the load line curve,
calibrating out the physical parasitic mismatches due to power train
components and PWB layout. Up to 7 devices can be configured in a
given current sharing group.
shutdown of the device. The device will continuously check for the
presence of the fault condition, and if the fault condition no longer
exists the device will be re-enabled. The load distribution should be
designed for the maximum output short circuit current specified. The
OCP limit and response of the product can be reconfigured using the
PMBus interface.
In order to avoid interference with other algorithms executing
during parallel operation, the dead-time algorithm should be turned
off and fixed dead-times be used.
Initialization Procedure
The product follows a specific internal initialization procedure after
power is applied to the VIN pin:
Phase Adding and Shedding for Parallel Operation
During periods of light loading, it may be beneficial to disable one or
more phases (modules) in order to eliminate the current drain and
switching losses associated with those phases, resulting in higher
efficiency. The product offers the ability to add and drop phases
(modules) using a PMBus command in response to an observed
load current change. All phases (modules) in a current share rail are
considered active prior to the current sharing rail ramp to power-good.
Phases can be dropped after power-good is reached. Any member
of the current sharing rail can be dropped. If the reference module is
dropped, the remaining active module with the lowest member position will become the new reference. Additionally, any change to the
number of members of a current sharing rail will precipitate autonomous phase distribution within the rail where all active phases realign
their phase position based on their order within the number of active
members. If the members of a current sharing rail are forced to shut
down due to an observed fault, all members of the rail will attempt to
re-start simultaneously after the fault has cleared.
1. Status of the address and output voltage pin-strap pins are checked
and values associated with the pin settings are loaded to RAM.
Efficiency Optimized Dead Time Control
The product utilizes a closed loop algorithm to optimize the deadtime applied between the gate drive signals for the switch and synch
FETs. The algorithm constantly adjusts the deadtime non-overlap to
minimize the duty cycle, thus maximizing efficiency. This algorithm
will null out deadtime differences due to component variation, temperature and loading effects. The algorithm can be configured via the
PMBus interface.
Over Current Protection (OCP)
The product includes current limiting circuitry for protection at continuous overload. The following OCP response options are available:
1. Initiate a shutdown and attempt to restart an infinite number of
times with a preset delay period between attempts.
2. Values stored in the Murata default non-volatile memory are
loaded to RAM. This overwrites any previously loaded values.
3. Values stored in the user non-volatile memory are loaded to RAM.
This overwrites any previously loaded values.
Once the initialization process is completed, the product is ready
to be enabled using the CTRL pin. The product is also ready to accept
commands via the PMBus interface, which will overwrite any values
loaded during the initialization procedure.
Soft-start Power Up
The soft-start control introduces a time-delay before allowing the
output voltage to rise. Once the initialization time has passed the
device will wait for the configured delay period prior to starting to
ramp its output. After the delay period has expired, the output will
begin to ramp towards its target voltage according to the configured
soft-start ramp time.
The default settings for the soft-start delay period and the softstart ramp time is 10 ms. Hence, power-up is completed within 20
ms in default configuration using remote control. When the soft-start
delay time is set to 0 ms, the module will begin its ramp-up after the
internal circuitry has initialized (approximately 2 ms). It is generally
recommended to set the soft-start ramp-up time to a value greater
than 500 μs to prevent inadvertent fault conditions due to excessive
inrush current. The acctual minimum ramp-up time will however
normally be limited by the control loop settings and ramp-up times of
internal interface voltages in the controller circuit to approximately 2
ms. The soft-start power up of the product can be reconfigured using
the PMBus interface.

times with a preset delay period between attempts.

Output Voltage Sequencing
A group of products may be configured to power up in a predetermined sequence. This feature is especially useful when powering
advanced processors, FPGAs, and ASICs that require one supply to
reach its operating voltage prior to another. Multi-product sequencing can be achieved by configuring the start delay and rise time of
each device through the PMBus interface and by using the CTRL start
signal.
Voltage Tracking
The product integrates a lossless tracking scheme that allows its
output to track a voltage that is applied to the VTRK pin with no
external components required. During ramp-up, the output voltage
follows the VTRK voltage until the preset output voltage level is met.
The product offers two modes of tracking as follows:
1. Coincident. This mode configures the product to ramp its output
voltage at the same rate as the voltage applied to the VTRK pin.
VOUT
MASTER
SLAVE
t
Illustration of Coincident Voltage Tracking.
2. Ratiometric. This mode configures the product to ramp its output
voltage at a rate that is a percentage of the voltage applied to the
VTRK pin. The default setting is 50%, but a different tracking ratio
may be set by an external resistive voltage divider or through the
PMBus interface.
The master device in a tracking group is defined as the device
that has the highest target output voltage within the group. This
master device will control the ramp rate of all tracking devices and is
not configured for tracking mode. All of the CTRL pins in the tracking group must be connected and driven by a single logic source. It
should be noted that current sharing groups that are also configured
to track another voltage do not offer pre-bias protection; a minimum
load should therefore be enforced to avoid the output voltage from
being held up by an outside force.
Voltage Margining Up/Down
The product can adjust its output higher or lower than its nominal
voltage setting in order to determine whether the load device is capable of operating over its specified supply voltage range. This provides
a convenient method for dynamically testing the operation of the load
circuit over its supply margin or range. It can also be used to verify the
function of supply voltage supervisors. Margin limits of the nominal
output voltage ±5% are default, but the margin limits can be reconfigured using the PMBus interface.
Pre-Bias Startup Capability
Pre-bias startup often occurs in complex digital systems when current
from another power source is fed back through a dual-supply logic
component, such as FPGAs or ASICs. The product family incorporates
synchronous rectifiers, but will not sink current during startup, or turn
off, or whenever a fault shuts down the product in a pre-bias condition. Pre-bias protection is not offered for current sharing groups that
also have voltage tracking enabled.
Group Communication Bus
The Group Communication Bus, GCB, is used to communicate
between products. This dedicated bus provides the communication channel between devices for features such as sequencing, fault
spreading, and current sharing. The GCB solves the PMBus data rate
limitation. The GCB pin on all devices in an application should be connected together. A pull-up resistor is required on the common GCB in
order to guarantee the rise time as follows:
www.murata-ps.com/support
MDC_OKDx-T/50-W12-C.A04 Page 25 of 41
OKDx-T/50-W12-C
50A Digital PoL DC-DC Converter Series
Eq. 5.  = RGCB CGCB ≤ 1μs,
where RGCB is the pull up resistor value and CGCB is the bus loading.
The pull-up resistor should be tied to an external supply voltage in
range from 3.3 to 5 V, which should be present priorμ to or during
power-up.
Products with P2 as reference OTP:
When TP2 as defined in thermal consideration section exceeds 120°C
the product will shut down. For products with P2 as a reference for
OTP the configured default value in the controller circuit in position P2
is 120°C.
If exploring untested compensation or deadtime configurations, it is
recommended that 27 Ω series resistors are placed between the GCB
pin of each product and the common GCB connection. This will avoid
propagation of faults between products potentially caused by hazardous configuration settings. When the configurations of the products
are settled the series resistors can be removed.
The OTP threshold, hysteresis, and fault response of the product
can be reconfigured using the PMBus interface. The fault response
can be configured as follows:
The GCB is an internal bus, such that it is only connected across
the modules and not the PMBus system host. GCB addresses are
assigned on a rail level, i.e. modules within the same current sharing
group share the same GCB address. Addressing rails across the GCB
is done with a 5 bit GCB ID, yielding a theoretical total of 32 rails that
can be shared with a single GCB bus.
2. Initiate a shutdown and attempt to restart a preset number of
times with a preset delay period between attempts.
Fault spreading
The product can be configured to broadcast a fault event over the
GCB bus to the other devices in the group. When a non-destructive
fault occurs and the device is configured to shut down on a fault, the
device will shut down and broadcast the fault event over the GCB bus.
The other devices on the GCB bus will shut down together if configured to do so, and will attempt to re-start in their prescribed order if
configured to do so.
5. Initiate an immediate shutdown.
Over Temperature Protection (OTP)
The products are protected from thermal overload by an internal over
temperature shutdown function in the controller circuit N1, located at
position P2 (see section Thermal Consideration). Some of the products
that this specification covers use the temperature at position P2 (TP2)
as a reference for specified OTP threshold and some use position
P1 (TP1) as a reference for specified OTP threshold. See the Over
Temperature Protection section in the electrical specification for each
product.
Products with P1 as reference for OTP:
When TP1 as defined in thermal consideration section exceeds
approximately 120 °C the product will shut down. The specified OTP
threshold and hysteresis are valid for worst case operation regarding
cooling conditions, input voltage and output voltage. The actually configured default value in the controller circuit in position P2 is 110 °C,
but at worst case operation the temperature is approximately 10 °C
higher at position P1. At light load the temperature is approximately
the same in position P1 and P2. This means the OTP threshold and
hysteresis will be lower at light load conditions when P1 is used as a
reference for OTP.
1. Initiate a shutdown and attempt to restart an infinite number
of times with a preset delay period between attempts (default
configuration).
3. Continue operating for a given delay period, followed by shutdown
if the fault still exists.
4. Continue operating through the fault (this could result in permanent damage to the power supply).

Thermal Consideration
AIR FLOW
General
The product is designed to operate in different thermal environments
and sufficient cooling must be provided to ensure reliable operation.
P1
Cooling is achieved mainly by conduction, from the pins to the host
board, and convection, which is dependent on the airflow across the
product. Increased airflow enhances the cooling of the product.
The Output Current Derating graph found in the Output section
for each model provides the available output current vs. ambient air
temperature and air velocity at specified VI.
The product is tested on a 254 x 254 mm, 35 μm (1 oz), test board
mounted vertically in a wind tunnel with a cross-section of 608 x 203
mm. The test board has 8 layers.
Proper cooling of the product can be verified by measuring the temperature at positions P1 and P2. The temperature at these positions
should not exceed the max values provided in the table below.
P2
SIP Version:Temperature positions and air flow direction.
Definition of reference temperature TP1
The reference temperature is used to monitor the temperature limits
of the product. Temperature above maximum TP1, measured at the
reference point P1 is not allowed and may cause degradation or
permanent damage to the product. TP1 is also used to define the
temperature range for normal operating conditions. TP1 is defined by
the design and used to guarantee safety margins, proper operation
and high reliability of the product.
Note that the max value is the absolute maximum rating (non
destruction) and that the electrical Output data is guaranteed up to
TP1 +95°C.
Definition of product operating temperature
The product operating temperatures are used to monitor the temperature of the product, and proper thermal conditions can be verified by
measuring the temperature at positions P1 and P2. The temperature
at these positions (TP1, TP2) should not exceed the maximum temperatures in the table below. The number of measurement points may
vary with different thermal design and topology. Temperatures above
maximum TP1, measured at the reference point P1 are not allowed
and may cause permanent damage. It should also be noted that
depending on setting of the over temperature protection (OTP) and
operating conditions, the product may shut down before the maximum
allowed temperature at TP1 is reached.

The pin-strap resistors, RSET, and RSA0/RSA1 should be placed as
close to the product as possible to minimize loops that may pick up
noise.
Avoid current carrying planes under the pin-strap resistors and the
PMBus signals.
The capacitor CI (or capacitors implementing it) should be placed
as close to the input pins as possible.
Capacitor CO (or capacitors implementing it) should be placed close
to the load.
Care should be taken in the routing of the connections from the
sensed output voltage to the S+ and S– terminals. These sensing
connections should be routed as a differential pair, preferably between
ground planes which are not carrying high currents. The routing
should avoid areas of high electric or magnetic fields.

PMBus interface
This product provides a PMBus digital interface that enables the user
to configure many aspects of the device operation as well as to monitor the input and output voltages, output current and device temperature. The product can be used with any standard two-wire I2C or
SMBus host device. In addition, the product is compatible with PMBus
version 1.1 and includes an SALERT line to help mitigate bandwidth
limitations related to continuous fault monitoring. The product supports 100 kHz bus clock frequency only. The PMBus signals, SCL, SDA
and SALERT require passive pull-up resistors as stated in the SMBus
Specification. Pull-up resistors are required to guarantee the rise time
as follows:
Eq. 6.  = Rp Cp ≤ 1μs,
where Rp is the pull-up resistor value and Cp is the bus loading, the
maximum allowed bus load is 400 pF. The pull-up resistor should be
tied to an external supply voltage in range from 2.7 to 5.5 V, which
should be present prior to or during power-up. If the proper power
supply is not available, voltage dividers may be applied. Note that in
this case, the resistance in the equation above corresponds to parallel
connection of the resistors forming the voltage divider.
Monitoring via PMBus
It is possible to monitor a wide variety of parameters through the
PMBus interface. Fault conditions can be monitored using the SALERT
pin, which will be asserted when any number of pre-configured fault
or warning conditions occurs. It is also possible to continuously monitor one or more of the power conversion parameters including but not
limited to the following:

Input voltage (READ_VIN)
The Snapshot feature enables the user to read the parameters via
the PMBus interface during normal operation, although it should be
noted that reading the 22 bytes will occupy the bus for some time.
The Snapshot enables the user to store the snapshot parameters to
Flash memory in response to a pending fault as well as to read the
stored data from Flash memory after a fault has occurred. Automatic
store to Flash memory following a fault is triggered when any fault
threshold level is exceeded, provided that the specific fault response
is to shut down. Writing to Flash memory is not allowed if the device
is configured to restart following the specific fault condition. It should
also be noted that the device supply voltage must be maintained
during the time the device is writing data to Flash memory; a process
that requires between 700-1400 μs depending on whether the data
is set up for a block write. Undesirable results may be observed if the
input voltage of the product drops below 3.0 V during this process.
Non-Volatile Memory (NVM)
The product incorporates two Non-Volatile Memory areas for storage of
the supported PMBus commands; the Default NVM and the User NVM.
The Default NVM is pre-loaded with Murata factory default
values. The Default NVM is write-protected and can be used to
restore the Murata factory default values through the command
RESTORE_DEFAULT_ALL.
The User NVM is pre-loaded with Murata factory default values. The
User NVM is writable and open for customization. The values in NVM
are loaded into operational RAM during initialization according to section “Initialization Procedure”, where after commands can be changed
through the PMBus Interface. The STORE_USER_ALL command will
store the changed parameters to the User NVM.

I2C/SMBus – Timing
The PMBus address follows the equation below:
Eq. 7. PMBus Address (decimal) = 25 x (SA1 index) + (SA0 index)
The user can theoretically configure up to 625 unique PMBus
addresses, however the PMBus address range is inherently limited to
128. Therefore, the user should use index values 0 - 4 on the SA1 pin
and the full range of index values on the SA0 pin, which will provide
125 device address combinations. The user shall also be aware
of further limitations of the address space as stated in the SMBus
Specification.
Note that address 0x4B is allocated for production needs and
cannot be used.
Optional PMBus Addressing
Alternatively the PMBus address can be defined by connecting the
SA0/SA1 pins according to the table below. SA1 = open for products
with no SA1 pin.

Setup and hold times timing diagram
The setup time, tset, is the time data, SDA, must be stable before the
rising edge of the clock signal, SCL. The hold time thold, is the time
data, SDA, must be stable after the rising edge of the clock signal,
SCL. If these times are violated incorrect data may be captured or
meta-stability may occur and the bus communication may fail. When
configuring the product, all standard SMBus protocols must be followed, including clock stretching. Refer to the SMBus specification, for
SMBus electrical and timing requirements.
This product does not support the BUSY flag in the status commands
to indicate product being too busy for SMBus response. Instead a busfree time delay according to this specification must occur between
every SMBus transmission (between every stop & start condition). In
case of storing the RAM content into the internal non-volatile memory
(commands STORE_USER_ALL and STORE_DEFAULT_ALL) an additional delay of 100 ms has to be inserted. A 100 ms delay should be
inserted after a restore from internal non-volatile memory (commands
RESTORE_DEFAULT_ALL and RESTORE_USER_ALL).

Soldering Information - Surface Mounting and Hole Mount
through Pin in Paste Assembly
The product is intended for forced convection or vapor phase reflow
soldering in SnPb or Pb-free processes.
The reflow profile should be optimised to avoid excessive heating
of the product. It is recommended to have a sufficiently extended
preheat time to ensure an even temperature across the host PWB and
it is also recommended to minimize the time in reflow.
A no-clean flux is recommended to avoid entrapment of cleaning
fluids in cavities inside the product or between the product and the
host board, since cleaning residues may affect long time reliability
and isolation voltage.

Dry Pack Information
Products intended for Pb-free reflow soldering processes are
delivered in standard moisture barrier bags according to IPC/JEDEC
standard J STD 033 (Handling, packing, shipping and use of moisture/
reflow sensitivity surface mount devices).
Using products in high temperature Pb-free soldering processes
requires dry pack storage and handling. In case the products have
been stored in an uncontrolled environment and no longer can be
considered dry, the modules must be baked according to J STD 033.
