Introduction
‰ Connect the Input Power Supply
The Advanced Configuration and Power Interface
specification (ACPI; [1]), written by a consortium
representing Intel, Microsoft and Toshiba, attempts to evolve
the current collection of power management methods and
configuration interfaces into a well-specified and unified
power management and configuration mechanism. The key
objective in the ACPI specification is to transfer all control of
power management and configuration functions to the
operating system, thus enabling Operating System Directed
Power Management (OSPM). ACPI-compliant systems will
benefit from a robust interface for configuring motherboard
devices, a versatile power management interface enabling a
wide variety of solutions with full operating-system support,
and not lastly, a realm of new, intelligent possibilities added
to the already broad span of PC uses.
Ensuring that the supply is not plugged into the mains, or
that the AC switch is off (if provided), connect the main ATX
output connector to J1.
The HIP6500B/02B ICs are to be used in conjunction with a
second integrated circuit to provide a complete ACPIsanctioned motherboard power regulation solution. The
HIP6500B/HIP6020 and HIP6502B/HIP6020 chip sets
(HIP6021 can substitute HIP6020 in either chip set) produce
the processor core, GTL bus, memory controller hub, and
AGP 4x voltages, as well as the 3.3V standby, 2.5V clock,
SDRAM/RDRAM memory (or both, simultaneously), 3.3V
and 5V dual voltage planes necessary for a complete PIIICamino (or equivalent) system implementation. [2, 3, 5, 6]
Quick Start Evaluation
Important!
Given the specialized nature of the HIP6500B and
HIP6502B, the HIP6500B/02BEVAL1 boards are meant to
be evaluated only with an ATX power supply. Furthermore,
only an ACPI-ready ATX supply can be used to power-up
the evaluation boards (720mA capability on 5VSB output;
ATX Specification v2.02, [4]). Standard laboratory power
supplies are not suitable for powering up this evaluation
board.
Circuit Setup
‰ Set Up JP1, JP2, and JP2, JP3
Before connecting the input ATX supply to the
HIP6500B/02BEVAL1 board, consult the circuit schematic
and data sheets and set the JP1 and JP2 configuration
jumpers on the HIP6500BEVAL1, and JP2 and JP3 jumpers
on the HIP6502BEVAL1 according to the configuration you
wish to emulate. These particular configurations are latched
in during certain times, but can be subsequently changed at
certain times. See HIP6500B/02B data sheets for
information on the available configurations and how to set
them.

‰ Connect the Output Loads
Connect typical standby loads to all the evaluation board’s
outputs. Consult Table 1 for maximum loads supported by
the design of the HIP6500B/02BEVAL1 in the configuration
received; consult the ‘HIP6500B/02BEVAL1 Modifications’
chapter for information on modifying the evaluation board to
meet your special needs.
‰ Set Start-Up State (Active Is Recommended)
If start-up in active state (S0/S1/S2) is desired, ensure both
‘S3’ (SW2) and ‘S5’ (SW3) switches are in the off position
(away from ‘S3’ or ‘S5’ marking). Ensure the ‘ATX ON’
switch is also in the off position.
Set either the ‘S3’ or the ‘S5’ standby switch for start-up in
either of the standby states. IMPORTANT: only one switch
needs to be actuated, so select the standby state by turning
on the switch with that name - the signal conditioning
circuitry ensures correct S3 and S5 pin stimulation.
Operation
‰ Provide Bias Voltage to the Board
Plug the ATX supply into the mains. If the supply has an AC
switch, turn it on. The ‘5VSB’ (LP4) LED should light up,
indicating the presence of 5V standby voltage on board.
‰ Examine Start-Up Waveforms
Sleep state 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 controlled voltages, according to the specific JP1/JP2, or
JP2/JP3 configuration previously set and the specific
standby state selected.
For start-up into an active state (standby switches set off
prior to application of bias voltage), flip on the ‘ATX ON’
switch (SW1). This will turn on the main ATX outputs and the
HIP6500B/02B will start up into active state. Once turned on,
SW1 needs not be turned off until bias is removed from the
board.
‰ Examine Output Quality Under Varying Loads
In either state (sleep or active) vary the output loads to
simulate computer loads typical of the specific operating
state the circuit is in.
CAUTION: These devices are sensitive to electrostatic discharge; follow proper IC Handling Procedures.

‰ Examine State Transitions
For subsequent transitions into standby states, leave the
main ATX outputs enabled (SW1 on); the circuit will
automatically turn them off when entering a standby state.
To enter a standby state, turn on the respective switch. The
‘S3’ LED will light up to indicate S3 standby state, while S5
state will illuminate both ‘S3’ and ‘S5’ LEDs. However, the
HIP6500B/02B will ignore any illegal transition requests,
such as from S3 state to S5 state or vice versa, as shown in
Figure 1.

down the IC quickly. To protect the external switches it is
strongly recommended that JP3/1 FAULT LATCH jumper is
shunted throughout the operation of the board.
Configuring Sleep State Support
Sleep state support on the 3.3VDUAL and 5VDUAL outputs of
the HIP6500BEVAL1 are user-configurable through jumpers
JP1 and JP2. Sleep state support on the 2.5VMEM,
3.3VMEM, and 5VDUAL outputs of the HIP6502BEVAL1 are
user-configurable through jumpers JP2 and JP3 (consult
data sheets for sleep support details). The configurations
can be changed prior to 5VSB application, during active
state operation (additionally, during S4/S5 operation for
HIP6502B’s memory selection), as well as during chip
shutdown (PB1 pressed). During all other times, the
configurations are internally latched and any changes in the
MSEL, EN3VDL and EN5VDL pins’ logic status are ignored.

Fault Handling
In case of a fault condition (input or output under-voltage such as a suddenly shorted output or a loss of an input
power rail), the FAULT pin asserts a logic ‘high’, shutting
down the ATX supply’s main outputs. To recover from such
a shutdown, press the ‘SHUTDOWN/CLEAR FAULT’ button
(PB1). Depressing PB1 will reset the IC and initiate a softstart sequence, thus clearing the FAULT, and enabling the
main ATX outputs.
If jumper JP3/1(respectively, JP3 on the 6500 and JP1 on
the 6502 evaluation board) “FAULT LATCH” is removed, the
FAULT output will not latch the circuit. The circuit appears to
latch off because the FAULT signal shuts down the ATX
supply, cutting off the input supply to the faulting output, and
thus keeping it from ever recovering from the fault condition.
However, it is not recommended to test the circuit against
output under-voltages (output short-circuits) with the fault
latch jumper removed. Due to the very slow response of the
ATX supply in response to a shutdown request, the external
N/P-MOS switches (Q4, Q5, Q6, and Q7) in use at the time
of testing could fail as a result of sustained over-current
through the drain-source junction and bond wires. The
FAULT latch circuit acts on the SS pin directly, shutting
2
Both evaluation boards are built on 2-ounce, 4-layer, printed
circuit board (see last six pages of this application note for
layout plots). Most of the components specific to the
evaluation board alone, which are not needed in a real
computer application, are placed on the bottom side of the
board. Assuming the input supplies and the controlled output
planes have their own on-board filtering (capacitors), the
only components required to implement this ACPI 5-voltage
controller/regulator solution are contained within the white
rectangle surrounding the HIP6500B/02B on the top side of
the board. All the additional circuitry contained on board has
the role of duplicating the computer environment the chip
would operate in. Since this additional circuitry would clutter
and detract from the readability of the schematic, most of it
was grouped in two blocks, named “SIGNAL
CONDITIONING” and “FAULT LATCH” (see evaluation
board schematics).
The boards also contain a serpentine resistor which
occupies about 1/3 of both top and bottom sides of the
board. The ATX supply requires some minimum loading on
the +5V output in order to stay active; lack of this minimum
loading causes the ATX to shut down all its outputs, except
+5VSB. This minimum load is specified as 1A, but most
supplies will stay active with as little as 400-500mA. The
embedded resistor is designed to draw a current of about 1A
(typical). If the current draw is insufficient to keep the power
supply active, try reducing the value of the embedded
resistor. Shorting out the W1 footprint, on the back side of
the board, effectively shorts out 1/4 of the resistive trace,
increasing the current draw by 30%. Similarly, shorting out
W2 reduces the trace by 50%, thus doubling the current
draw from the +5V output. If either W1 or W2 are shorted, it
is advised that active state operation time be reduced as to
avoid severe overheating of the board (in case the 5V
Application Note 9862
current draw exceeds 1A). For most, if not all cases, neither
W1 nor W2 need be shorted.
Design Envelope
Although different computer systems might have different
requirements, the HIP6500BEVAL1 and HIP6502BEVAL1
boards were designed to meet the maximum output loading
described in Tables 1 and 2. Note the fact that the addition of
all the sleep state output currents exceeds the typical ATX
power supply 5VSB output capability (725mA). Real-life
sleep state current requirement on each of the outputs could
be lower, and their maximums should rarely all occur
simultaneously. Output tolerances and current ratings (with
the exception of the 2.5VCLK, 3.3VSB, and 2.5/3.3VMEM
when operating on internal pass transistors) can be adjusted
by properly selecting the components external to the
HIP6500B/02B.

HIP6500B/02BEVAL1 Performance
Figures 2 through 6 depict the evaluation board’s
performance during a few typical operational situations. To
simulate minimum loading conditions, unless otherwise
specified, the outputs were loaded with 65Ω resistive loads.
Sleep-State Start-Up
Figure 2 shows a typical HIP6500BEVAL1 start-up into S3
sleep state while all outputs are enabled (EN3VDL = 0,
EN5VDL = 1). As 5VSB is applied to the board, SW1 and
SW3 are off, while SW2 is on. At time T0 the input supply
exceeds the power-on-reset (POR) threshold. Three
milliseconds afterwards, at time T1, the soft-start clamp is
removed and the 3.3VSB output starts to ramp up toward its
target value, which it reaches at time T2. As its ramping
ends shortly after bringing up this first output, the soft-start
voltage is quickly brought down and prepared for a second
soft-start designed to bring up the remainder of the
controlled voltages that are supported in this configuration
and state. This second ramp-up begins at time T3 and ends
at time T4. The 5VDUAL output has a slightly different rampup than the remainder of the output voltages. The 5VDUAL
output is not actively regulated, as is the case with the
2.5VMEM and 3.3VDUAL outputs in S3, but rather switched
on through a P-MOS or PNP switch. An error amplifier is
thus provided for the 5VDUAL output just for the purpose of
providing a smooth, controlled output voltage rise. This error
amplifier uses a different, soft-start derived, ramp signal to
achieve the controlled rise of the output.

Figure 3 shows a typical HIP6502BEVAL1 start-up into S3
sleep state while all outputs are enabled (MSEL = open,
EN5VDL = 1). The start-up sequence is similar to that of the
HIP6500BEVAL1 board, with the difference that the new
3.3VDUAL/SB output precedes all the other outputs, and the
3.3VMEM output replaces the 3.3VDUAL.

Figure 4 also shows a start-up sequence, but this time into
an active state (S0, S1). As the enable pins only configure
the sleep state voltage support, this start-up sequence will
be the same, regardless of EN3VDL and EN5VDL status. In
Figure 4, SW1, SW2 and SW3 are all off and 5VSB is
applied to the HIP6500BEVAL1 board. Active state
operation is enabled by switching on SW1, a few
milliseconds before T0. Invariably, the 3.3VSB output is
brought up shortly after 5VSB is applied to the IC, and it can
be seen present at the time the main ATX outputs are
coming up (T0). At time T0, the input voltages (3.3V, 5V,
12V) exceed the under-voltage thresholds (12V shown, only)
and the internal 25ms (typical) timer is initiated. Note the
typically poor regulation of the ATX supply resulting in a 10%
overshoot at start-up (T0). Between T0 and T1, the
3.3VDUAL and 5VDUAL outputs undergo a quasi soft-start,
due to conduction through the body diodes of the active NMOS switches (Q4 and Q6). At time T1 the timer expires and
the two N-MOS transistors are turned on; simultaneously,
the 2.5VMEM and 2.5VCLK outputs begin a soft-start cycle,
reaching regulation limits at time T2.

Figure 6 shows the transition from active state (S0, S1) to S3
sleep state on the HIP6500BEVAL1 board. Prior to time T0,
the evaluation board was operating in active mode, with SW1
on and SW2 and SW3 off. At time T0, SW2 is switched on,
triggering the turn-off of the ATX and the switch-over of the
output regulation from the active ATX output rails to the 5VSB
supply. Very shortly after time T0, the ATX responds to the
turn-off request, and the 5V input starts to ramp down under
the current drawn by the embedded 5Ω serpentine resistor.
As it can be noticed in the scope capture, the transitions are
devoid of any perturbations. These smooth transitions are
desirable in a computer system, power glitches being the
leading cause of power-related system crashes.

Figure 8 highlights the transition back from S3 sleep state to
active state (S0, S1) with all outputs enabled, as captured on
the HIP6500BEVAL1 board. At time T0, SW2 is switched off,
enabling the main ATX outputs. As 3.3VIN, 5VIN, and 12VIN
exceed their undervoltage thresholds, the 25ms timer
internal to the HIP6500B is initiated. At T1 the time-out
expires, conduction on the 3.3VDUAL and 5VDUAL outputs is
transferred to the N-MOS switches and the 2.5VCLK output
begins its ramp-up. At time T2, all the outputs are functional
and ready for active state operation. The 2.5VMEM output is
maintained glitch-free throughout the input voltage transition
from the standby to the main ATX outputs.
Figure 7 shows the transition from active state (S0, S1) to S3
sleep state on the HIP6502BEVAL1 board. Similarly, this
board mirrors the functionality and benefits of the
HIP6500BEVAL1.

ATX outputs. As 3.3VIN, 5VIN, and 12VIN exceed their
undervoltage thresholds (5VIN shown, only), the 25ms timer
internal to the HIP6500B is initiated and similar to the startup shown in Figure 8, the 3VDUAL and 5VDUAL outputs
undergo a quasi-soft-start as conduction takes place through
the body diodes of the pass NMOS switches. At T1 the timeout expires, conduction on the 3.3VDUAL and 5VDUAL
outputs is transferred to the N-MOS switches and the
2.5VCLK and 2.5VMEM outputs begin their ramp-up. At time
T2, all the outputs are functional and ready for active state
operation.

The 25ms time-out employed by the HIP6500B (and
HIP6502B) is necessary in order to insure that the main ATX
outputs are allowed to stabilize and reach regulation limits
before any circuits are connected to, or are allowed to derive
their voltages from them. This technique insures glitch-free
operation, compatible with virtually any ATX power supply.
Transient Response
Given the similarity of the two evaluation boards, only
HIP6500BEVAL1 results are shown in Figures 10-12; the
respective outputs of the HIP6502BEVAL1 exhibit similar
performance. All outputs shown in the oscilloscope captures
are DC offset by their nominal value and are DC coupled.
The current waveforms underneath each of the output
voltage waveforms show the (transient) current drawn from
the respective output.
In Figure 10, the outputs shown are separately subjected to
load transients while operating in active state (S0, S1).
Transient loading of the outputs is as follows:

The 3.3VDUAL and 5VDUAL outputs closely follow the AC
meandering of the ATX 3.3V and 5V outputs, being
separated only by the rDS(ON) of the N-MOS switches (Q4
and Q6). During the transient loading, the 3.3VDUAL output
develops a DC offset (compared to the ATX 3.3V), due to
the voltage droop across Q4. Specific to this circuit and the
particular circuit loading, the offset can easily be identified as
the product of the rDS(ON) of the pass transistor and the
output current. A similar explanation accompanies the
5VDUAL output waveform.

Output Short-Circuit Protection
Figure 13 depicts the circuit’s behavior in response to a
sudden output short-circuit (output under-voltage), applied,
in this scope capture, on the 2.5VMEM output, while
operating in active state. At time T0 a short-circuit is applied
using an electronic load - as a result, the 2.5V output starts
to rapidly discharge, crossing the falling under-voltage
threshold at time T1. To avoid false triggers, the UV detector
is equipped with a 10μs filter. As the output voltage remains
below the undervoltage (UV) threshold for more than 10μs, it
triggers a fault response at time T2. The logic high output on
the FAULT pin sets the external fault latch circuitry which
shuts down the ATX supply and quickly discharges the SS
capacitor below the chip shutdown level, reached at time T3.
The chip reset disables the fault reporting and the latch
maintains the circuit in a reset state. The latch is necessary
to compensate for the slow response of the ATX supply, by
shutting down the controller IC, along with the pass
elements. Depressing the CLEAR FAULT button resets the
latch and releases the circuit for operation.

The HIP6500BEVAL1 evaluation board ships populated to
demonstrate support for RDRAM or some double data rate
(DDR) SDRAM memory, with the memory output set for
2.5V. The HIP6500B, however, is designed for either 2.5V or
3.3V memory output voltage. To change the memory output
voltage on the evaluation board perform the following steps:
• Replace R3 with a 15kΩ resistor
• Remove Q2, and install an N-MOS transistor in its
place (HUF76113 or equivalent recommended). Please
note the connection diagram and insure the correct
connections are established (N-MOS might not fit the
provided footprint)
With the above modifications, the memory output will be set
to 3.3V. In this configuration, the output voltage obtainable in
active state is directly related to the ATX 3.3V output, the
memory output current, and the r(DS)ON of Q2, according to
the following equation:
V MEM = V IN – I MEM × r ( DS )ON
Improving Output Voltage Tolerance
The key to improving the output voltage tolerance is
identifying the parameters which affect it, and then taking
steps toward improving them.
The output DC voltage droop on the 3.3VDUAL and 5VDUAL
outputs under applied load is due to the resistive losses
across the N-MOS switch’s own rDS(ON) - decreasing the
rDS(ON) results in reduced load-dependent voltage drooping.

Application Note 9862
High dV/dt spikes present in the output voltage waveform
under highly dynamic load application (high dI/dt) are due to
the ESR and the ESL of the output capacitance. These
spikes coincide with the transient load’s rising and falling
edges, and decreasing their amplitude can be achieved by
using lower ESR/ESL output capacitors (such as surfacemount tantalum capacitors), and/or the addition of more
ceramic capacitors, which have inherently low ESR/ESL.
The addition of more input-side capacitance and decreasing
the input-side capacitor banks’ ESR can also help in
situations where the input-side ripple is affecting the output
regulation. Such an example is excessive ATX 3.3V ripple
reducing the collector-to-emitter voltage available for Q2
(2.5V setting), and thus inducing an output droop component
- in such instance, the addition of input-side capacitance and
reduction of the ESR component can reduce the output
excursion.
Conclusion
The HIP6500B and HIP6502B are sophisticated integrated
circuits that envelop all the required circuitry for ACPI
implementation in computer motherboards and computer
systems. The circuits employ intelligent switching methods
for smooth power plane transitions, noise immunity circuits
for nuisance trip avoidance, and a direct interface to the
south bridge and logical circuitry for simplified control and
configuration.
