Description
Ordering Information
The PT6722 is a fully integrated
14-A switching regulator housed in a
space-saving solderable package. The
PT6722 operates from 12V to provide
a high-performance low-voltage
output that is programmable over the
range 1.1V to 1.85V. This output
voltage range is specifically suited to
high performance µP and DSP applications that require core supply
voltages below 1.3V. The voltage
control inputs are also TTL compatible.
Additional features include output
short circuit protection, a “Power
Good” output, and an over-voltage
protection (OVP) drive.

Notes: (1) ISR-will operate down to no load with reduced specifications.
(2) If the remote sense ground is not used, pin 13 must be connected to pin 14 for optimal output voltage accuracy.
(3) The Standby control (pin 8) has an internal pull-up, and if left open-circuit the module will operate when input power is applied. A small low-leakage (<100nA)
MOSFET must be used to control this input. The open-circuit voltage is less than 10V. See application notes for further information.
(4) For operation below 0°C, Cin and Cout must have stable characteristics. Use either low ESR tantalum or Oscon® capacitors.
(5) See Safe Operating Area curves.
(6) The case pins on the through-hole package types (suffixes N & A) must be soldered. For more information see the applicable package outline drawing.
External Capacitors: The PT6722 requires a minimum ouput capacitance of 330µF, and a minimum input capacitance of 1,000µF for proper operation. The input
capacitance must be rated for a minimum of 1.6Arms of ripple current. For transient or dynamic load applications, additional input and output capacitance may be
required.The maximum allowable output capacitance is 15,000µF. For more information refer to the application note regarding capacitor selection for this product.
Input Inductor: An input filter inductor is optional for most applications. The inductor must be sized to handle 3ADC with a typical value of 1µH.

Operating Features of the Programmable
PT6700 “Excalibur™” Series ISRs
Power Good
Programmable versions of the PT6700 Series regulators
incorporate a PWR Good output (pin 2). This output is
open-drain and generates an acitve-high signal when the
sensed output from the ISR is within a nominal ±10% of
the programmed set point. When the regulated output is
outside this range, pin 2 asserts a logic low (typically <0.1V). A
10-kΩ pull-up resistor to a valid bus voltage is required.
If the power good feature is not used, the pull-up resistor
can be omitted. The maximum voltage that may be applied to the pull-up resistor is 15V.

Over-Voltage Protection (OVP)
The PT6700 programmable regulators also incorporate
an OVP function. The OVP DRV (pin 1) normally has a
logic low output (typically <0.1V). When the ISR’s sensed
output exceeds the programmed output setting by 15%,
pin 1 produces a 60mA, +12V drive signal. This drive
signal can trigger an SCR, which can be used to disable
the input voltage (via a fuse), or alternatively interface to
another external monitoring device. When the ISR output
voltage returns to within 15% of its programmed setting,
pin 1 reverts back to its low state. If the OVP function is
not used, pin 1 may be left open circuit.
Stand-By Function
The PT6700 series ISRs incorporate a standby function.
This feature may be used for power-up sequencing, or
wherever there is a requirement for the output voltage
to be controlled by external circuitry.
If the STBY* input (pin 8) is left open-circuit the regulator
operates normally, providing a regulated output when a
valid supply voltage is applied to Vin (pins 10-12) with
respect to GND (pins 14-18). Connecting pin 8 to ground1
places the regulator in standby mode 2, and reduces the input
current to typically 20mA (30mA max). Applying a ground
signal to pin 8 prior to power-up, will disable the output
during the period that input power is applied. To ensure
that the regulator output is properly enabled, pin 8 must
be open circuit.
Notes:
1. The standby on a PT6700 series regulator must be controlled
with an open-drain low-leakage (<100nA) MOSFET (See
fig. 1). Table 1 gives the threshold requirements. Do Not use a
pull-up resistor. The control input has an open-circuit voltage of
between 4Vdc and 5Vdc. To set the regulator output to zero,
the control pin must be “pulled” to less than 1.0Vdc by sinking
current to ground.
2. When placed in the standby mode, the regulator output may
assert a low impedance to ground. If an external voltage is
applied to the output, it will sink current and possibly overstress the part.
Turn-On Time
Turning Q1 in Figure 1 off, removes the low-voltage signal
at pin 8. After a 10-15ms delay the regulator output
rises and reaches full output voltage within 30ms. Fig. 2
shows the typical waveforms of a PT6701 following the
prompt turn-off of Q1 at time t =0 secs. The output voltage was set to 2.5V, and the waveforms were measured
with a 5V input source, and 10A resistive load.

Pin-Coded Output Voltage Programming on
Non-Isolated “Excalibur™” Series ISRs
Programmable versions of the PT6700 and PT6720 series
of Excalibur ISRs incorporate a pin-coded output voltage
control. These regulators include up to five control pins,
identified VID0–VID4 (pins 3–7) respectively. By selectively
grounding VID0-VID4, the output voltage of these regulators can be programmed in incremental steps over a
specified output voltage range. The program code and voltage
range is designed to be compatible with the “Voltage ID”
specification defined for popular microprocessors. Refer to
Figure 1 for the connection schematic, and the applicable
data sheet for the program code.
Notes:
1. The programming convention is as follows:Logic 0:
Connect to pin13 (Remote Sense Ground).
Logic 1:
Open circuit/open drain (See notes 2, & 4)
2. Do not connect pull-up resistors to the voltage
programming pins.
3. To minimize output voltage error, always use pin 13
(Remote Sense Ground) as the logic “0” reference. While
the regular ground (pins 14-18) can also be used for
programming, doing so will degrade the load regulation of
the product.
bipolar transistors. The inherent Vce(sat) in bipolar devices
introduces errors in the device’s internal voltage control
circuit. Discrete transistors such as the BSS138, 2N7002,
IRLML2402, are examples of appropriate devices.
Active Voltage Programming:
Special precautions should be taken when making changes
to the voltage control progam code while the unit is
powered. It is highly recommended that the ISR be either
powered down or held in standby. Changes made to the
program code while Vout is enabled induces high current
transients through the device. This is the result of the
electrolytic output capacitors being either charged or discharged to the new output voltage set-point. The transient
current can be minimized by making only incremental
changes to the binary code, i.e. one LSB at a time. A
minimum of 100µs settling time between each program
state is also recommended. Making non-incremental
changes to VID3 and VID4 with the output enabled is
discouraged. If they are changed, the transients induced
can overstress the device and may also activate the OVP
drive output. If the program code cannot be asserted prior
to power-up, pull pin 8 (STBY) to GND during the period
that the input voltage is applied. The release of pin 8 will
then to allow the device to initiate a soft-start power-up to
the program voltage.
4. If active devices are used to ground the voltage control pins,
low-level open drain MOSFET devices should be used over

PT6721/6722, & PT6725 Series
Capacitor Recommendations for the PT6721,
PT6722, and PT6725 Series of Regulators
Input Capacitors
The recommended input capacitance is determined by 1.6
ampere minimum ripple current rating and 1000µF minimum capacitance. Tantalum capacitors listed below cannot
be used on the input bus since they are not rated for 12V
operation. Ripple current and Equivalent Series Resistance
(ESR) values are the major considerations along with temperature when selecting the proper capacitor.
Output Capacitors
The minimum required output capacitance is 330µF with a
maximum ESR less than or equal to 50mW. Failure to observe this requirement may lead to regulator instability or
oscillation. Electrolytic capacitors have poor ripple performance at frequencies greater than 400kHz, but excellentlow
frequency transient response. Above the ripple frequency ceramic decoupling capacitors are necessary to improve the
transient response and reduce any microprocessor high
frequency noise components apparent during higher current excursions. Preferred low ESR type capacitor part
numbers are identified in the Table 1 below.
Tantalum Characteristics
Tantalum capacitors may be used on the output bus but
only the AVX TPS series, Sprague 593D/594/595 series,
or Kemet T495/T510 series. These capacitors are recommended over many other tantalum types due to their high
surge current, excellent power dissipation and ripple
current ratings. As a caution, the TAJ Series by AVX is
not recommended. This series has considerably higher
ESR, reduced power dissipation, and lower ripple current
capability. The TAJ series is less reliable compared to the
TPS series when determining power dissipation capability.
Capacitor Table
Table 1 identifies the characteristics of capacitors from a
number of vendors with acceptable ESR and ripple current
(rms) ratings. The suggested minimum quantities per
regulator for both the input and output buses are identified.
This is not an extensive capacitor list. Capacitors from
other vendors are available with comparable specifications.
Those listed are for guidance. The RMS ripple current rating
and ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance at 100kHz) are the
critical parameters necessary to insure both optimum regulator
performance and long capacitor life.
