Introduction
Circuit Setup
The progress of the advanced computing cores coming from
microprocessor manufacturers such as Intel and AMD have
necessitated a change in the topology of the switching
regulators traditionally used to power them. Multiphase buck
regulators have proven to be the topology of choice for such
high-current applications. The ISL6563 is a cost-effective
alternative to a core power solution for a typical VRM9 or
VRM10 Pentium, or Hammer-class processor system.
Utilizing a proven rDS(ON) sensing 2-phase buck approach,
the ISL6563 consists of a multiphase core controller with a
selectable VID input and two half-bridge, high current
drivers, along with all the necessary protection and
coordination features required by a typical VR9, VR10, or
AMD Hammer design.
Before connecting an input supply to the board, consult and
familiarize yourself with the circuit schematic and the
connection options offered by the ISL6563EVAL1.

To facilitate the evaluation of the ISL6563 in a typical setting,
the ISL6563EVAL1 is designed to be powered primarily from
an ATX supply. However, the board does have terminals that
allow it to be powered from standard laboratory power
supplies. Figure 1 details the available input and output
connections.
SW3 selects the output voltage setting and DAC
compatibility (Intel VRM9.0, or AMD Hammer; when not in
VRM10 setting). Please consult the ISL6563 datasheet and
the circuit schematic for a thorough understanding of the
available options for setting the output voltage. Figure 2
details the typical default configuration for SW3 when the
board is received. In this default setting, the evaluation
board is set for VRM10 support; all sections of SW3
representing inputs into the 6-bit VID DAC.

Quick Start Evaluation
Ensure the ‘ATX ON’ (SW1) and ‘ENABLE’ (SW2) switches
are in the off position (away from ‘ATX ON’ and ‘ENABLE’
markings, respectively).

The ISL6563EVAL1 evaluation board embodies a 55-60A
regulator solution targeted at supplying power to the core of
either of the three types of processors mentioned above.
The physical board ships out configured for VR10 VID
coding, but can be easily modified to support any of the
other two VID tables.
• Set Switches
FIGURE 2. TYPICAL SW3 DEFAULT SETTING (1.600V; VRM10)
• Set DAC Compatibility (optional)
Should the default VRM10.0 DAC compatibility not be the
desired version, VRM9.0 or AMD Hammer DAC compatibility
can be programmed by removing R22 (see evaluation board
schematic). Once the VRM10 pin is open, the VID5 section
of the SW3 switch selects the new DAC compatibility: set to
the ON position for AMD Hammer or leave in the OFF
position for VRM9.0 compatibility. Consult the ISL6563
datasheet for more information.

Operation
Reference Design
• Provide Power to the Board
General
If using an ATX supply, plug it into the mains, and, if the
supply has an AC switch, turn it on. The ‘5VSB’ LED should
light up, indicating the presence of 5V standby. Flip on the
‘ATX ON’ switch; immediately thereafter, the ‘5V’ and ‘12V’
LEDs should light up indicating the presence of main ATX 5V
and 12V on the evaluation board.
The evaluation board is built on 2-ounce, 4-layer, printed
circuit board (see last three pages of this application note for
layout plots). The board is designed to support a continuous
output current level of up to 55-60A, while operating at room
temperature, under natural convection cooling; consult the
‘Modifications’ section for information on modifying the
evaluation board to meet your special needs.
Start-up is immediate following application of bias voltage.
Using an oscilloscope or other laboratory equipment, you
may study the ramp-up and/or regulation of the output
voltage. Loading of the output can be most easily done via
an electronic load; however, most any other method will
work as well.
• Examine VID-Directed Output Voltage Transitions
(VRM9.0 or AMD Hammer DAC Settings Only)
Although the evaluation board ships populated for VRM10
DAC compatibility, depopulating R22 changes the DAC
compatibility to either VRM9.0 or AMD Hammer (check
circuit schematic and ISL6563 datasheet).
In either of these DAC compatibility modes, the VID setting
can be changed while the board is enabled and operational,
resulting in an immediate and controlled change in the
output voltage setting as per the new VID code selected.
Exercise this function and observe the resulting changes
under desired loading conditions.
Fault Handling
Soft-Start Start-Up
Figure 3 details a typical ISL6563EVAL1 start-up. For this
scope capture, the ATX supply powering the board is turned
on via SW1 prior to time T0. At time T0, SW2 is enabling the
circuit for operation and EN pin starts to rise. As the EN pin
is surpassing its threshold at time T1, a soft-start sequence
is initiated and the output voltage is increased, under a
constant rate of rise, to its set value. Once the output voltage

The ISL6563 protects the output against over-current (OC)
and over-voltage (OV) events.
In case of an over-current event, the circuit turns off and
attempts an output soft-start (SS) after waiting for a time period
equaling two SS cycles. In the unlikely case of an over-voltage
event, the controller turns on the lower MOSFETs as needed in
order to lower the output voltage below the falling OV
threshold. However, the OV behavior is masked by the normal
feedback loop behavior; as soon as the output starts to exceed
the internal reference the lower MOSFETs’ duty cycle is
increased as necessary to maintain the output regulation.
The behavior of the circuit, in either situation (OC or OV),
repeats until the fault condition is removed or the circuit is
disabled. Review the appropriate datasheet sections for
more details.

Figures 3 through 11 depict the evaluation board’s
performance during typical operational situations.

To enable the circuit for operation, flip on the ‘ENABLE’
switch (SW2); the circuit should immediately bring up the
output voltage corresponding to the DAC setting.
Performance
5.00V/DIV
Should bench supplies be used, simply turn them on; any
turn-on sequence is fine. The ‘5V’ and ‘12V’ LEDs should
light up, but in this case, the ‘5VSB’ LED should stay off
(there is no 5V standby voltage provided by bench supplies).

released (T2), signaling the conclusion of the start-up
sequence.
Special consideration is given to start-up into a pre-charged
output (where the output is not 0V at the time the SS cycle is
initiated). Under such circumstances, the ISL6563 keeps off
both sets of output MOSFETs until the internal ramp starts to
exceed the output voltage sensed at the FB pin. This special
scenario is detailed in Figure 4. The circuit is enabled,
similar to Figure 3, at time T0. As the internal ramp exceeds
the magnitude of the output voltage at time T1, the

Figure 6 displays a pattern of typical circuit behavior when
encountering an OC situation. At time T0 an output shortcircuit is applied, resulting in the circuit shutting down
immediately and initiating a wait period of two SS cycles, T0
to T1. As the wait period ends at time T1, the circuit initiates
a new SS cycle, attempting to bring the output back within
regulation limits. As the output voltage increases and the
output short-circuit increases, the OC limit is reached, again,
at time T2, causing the circuit to repeat the shut-down and
wait cycle. Should the short-circuit have been removed prior
to time T2, the circuit would have brought the output in
regulation and continued operating as it did prior to the fault
condition being applied.

A second scenario can be encountered with a pre-charged
output: output being pre-charged above the DAC-set point,
as shown in Figure 5. In this situation, the ISL6563 behaves
in a way similar to that of Figure 4, keeping the MOSFETs off
until the end of the SS ramp. However, once the end of the
ramp has been reached, at time T1, the output drives are
enabled for operation, and the output is quickly drained
down to set-point level.

Pre-POR Over-Voltage Protection
Typically, complex integrated circuits (including power
management controllers) are internally disabled, and various
internal circuitry is reset as soon as there is sufficient bias
voltage for this task to be achieved. This procedure is
necessary to insure that the various internal circuits are
always starting from known states, and also to insure they
are not enabled until they have sufficiently high bias to
ensure behavior consistent with their designed functions.
Concerns have been voiced over situations where, due to
manufacturing defects, process variations, or other factors,
the upper MOSFET could emerge shorted from the
assembly operations. Given the fact the controller is not
enabled for operation until the bias voltage reaches roughly
90% of its final value, and given the typical ATX supply
architecture coupling the 5V and 12V on the same HF
transformer (outputs thus become ratiometrically coupled), a
shorted upper MOSFET could cause the output of the circuit
to ramp up to about 10.8V before the controller can detect
and take action against the over-voltage condition.

FIGURE 7. ISL6563EVAL1 PRE-POR OUTPUT OVERVOLTAGE PROTECTION (START-UP WITH
SHORTED Q5)
Even though the output voltage no longer increases, the
current sunk from the ATX input supply is increasing from T2
to T3, causing the supply to reach its OC threshold and trip.
At time T4, the current sunk from the input supply diminishes
and the 12V input collapses to the VOUT level (a small
constant-current output load discharges the output from that
point on).
Normal Over-Voltage Protection
While biased and operational, the ISL6563 benefits from a
secondary over-voltage protection. Normally, the feedback
loop takes control and prevents the OV condition before the
real OVP mechanism can begin operation; both activating
the lower MOSFETs, it is hard to distinguish between the two.

Figure 7 details the typical circuit behavior when this feature
is activated. A very small impedance was placed across Q1
in order to simulate a manufacturing short-circuit, then the
ATX supply was enabled, at time T0. At time T1, the 5V and
12V outputs of the ATX supply begin to ramp up, and, with
the 12V, so does the output of the circuit. Since the output
inductors do not carry any significant current, the PHASE
node follows the output voltage closely and so does LGATE1
(LGATE2, not shown, exhibits identical behavior). The
moment LGATE pins reach the VGS(TH) of the lower
MOSFETs, at time T2, the rise of the output voltage is
quickly curbed.
Figure 8 details the operation of the OVP mechanism while
the ISL6563 is fully biased and the circuit is operational. At
time T0 Q1 is shorted, and as a result, the increase in the
output voltage makes the controller decrease the duty cycle.
Turning on the lower MOSFET, while the upper is shorted,
results in a very large current being drawn from the input
supply, further leading to the effective collapse of the +12V
input. Following, at time T1, the ATX supply’s OC protection
kicks in; the lack of current being delivered from the input is
causing the output to ramp down below the regulation
setpoint, from T1 to T2. At time T2, the +5V input drops
below the falling POR threshold of the ISL6563, and the
controller stops operating. Due to the short still present
across Q1, the output voltage drifts slightly higher to the
potential still held in the input supply’s output capacitors.
T1
500mV/DIV
The pre-POR OV protection cleverly attempts to limit the rise
of the output voltage in such a scenario to the lowest level
possible in the given application circuit: the VGS(TH) of the
lower MOSFETs. This feat is achieved via a special circuitry
acting upon the lower MOSFETs’ gates while the ISL6563’s
VCC level is below POR threshold, by effectively shorting
the gates to the drains of the respective MOSFETs via finite
impedances (LGATE to PHASE; typically 5kΩ).
T2
FIGURE 8. ISL6563EVAL1 OUTPUT OVER-VOLTAGE
PROTECTION
Should strict OVP thresholds need be monitored at all times,
it is recommended the ISL6563 bias is provided from a
source which is always present (independent of the power
conversion input); in a computer system, the source that
could be used is the +5VSB. On the evaluation board, this
can be achieved by depopulating R7 and using the same
resistor to populate R9.
Output Transient Response
The ISL6563EVAL1 circuit is designed to exhibit output
voltage droop, at a slope of roughly 1mΩ. Figure 9 details the
circuit’s response to a load step transient. During the T0-T1
transient duration, the output voltage droops, corresponding
to the load slope programmed. Although the droop cannot be
eliminated completely, it can be easily reduced to relatively
small magnitudes. However, in most instances, the presence
of some amount of output droop helps minimize the total

Adjusting the Output Voltage
The output voltage can be adjusted via the DAC-set internal
reference. Please consult the datasheet for the available
voltage ranges and the required settings.
The offset pin (OFS) allows for small-range (less than
100mV), positive or negative, offsetting of the output voltage.
Should an output voltage setting outside the normal range
provided via the internal DAC be required, a separate
resistor from FB to GND or to VCC will be required in order
to increase or decrease, respectively, the output voltage.

Channel-to-channel current sharing/balancing is influenced

close attention should be paid to these design parameters.

Conclusion
The ISL6563EVAL1 evaluation board showcases a highly
integrated approach to providing control in a variety of
applications, with emphasis on computer systems. The
sophisticated feature set and high-current MOSFET drivers
of the ISL6563 yield a highly efficient power conversion
solution with a reduced number of external components in a
compact footprint.

Down-Converting From a Different Input Voltage
The ISL6563EVAL1 is primarily set up to use an ATX
computer supply as a bias and down-conversion source.
However, when powered from bench supplies, the downconversion input labeled ‘+12V’ can be adjusted down as
desired. If experimenting with a lower voltage, be mindful of
a few aspects:
• The duty cycle of the controller is limited to 66%; the
circuit will not be capable of properly regulating the output
voltage should the input be reduced to a level low enough
to induce duty cycle saturation
• The input-RMS current will likely increase as the input
voltage is decreased; maximum will be achieved at duty
cycles around 25% to 35%
• As the evaluation board (as shipped) was not optimized
for high duty cycle operation, closely monitor the board
temperatures and increase the output current only as
allowed by the board thermal situation
• The reduced input voltage will decrease the amount of
loop gain the modulator provides in the feedback loop, as
a result, expect a more sluggish transient response when
operating the board at reduced down-conversion voltage
