Ordering Information
The PT8139 Excalibur™ module
is a high performance integrated
switching regulator (ISR), housed in
a solderable, 31-pin space-saving
copper package. Operating from an
input voltage of +12V, the module
provides up to 30A of power over a
range of low-output voltages.
The PT8139 incorporates a stateof-the-art 2-phase multiple power
path. This topology extends the
output current range while improving
both the transient response and input
current ripple.
The PT8139 output voltage is
programmable over the voltage
range, 1.7V to 4.0V, via a 5-bit input
code. This makes the PT8139 an
ideal power source for many highly
integrated digital systems that demand a high power supply current
at low voltages.
The PT8139 features include
short-circuit protection, thermal
shutdown, a Standby (On/Off)
control, and a remote sense to compensate for voltage drop between
the regulator and the load.

Notes: (1) ISR-will operate down to no load with reduced specifications.
(2) The Standby input (pin 6) has an internal pull-up. If it is left open-circuit the PT812x will operate when input power is applied. A low-leakage
MOSFET is recommended to control this input. The open-circuit voltage is nominally 5V. See application notes for interface considerations.
(3) For operation below 0°C, Cout must have stable characteristics. Use either low ESR tantalum or Oscon® capacitors.
(4) See safe Operating Area curves or consult factory for the appropriate derating.
(5) The PT8120 regulators require a minimum of 660µF, low ESR ouput capacitance (1,200µF for standard aluminum electrolytic) for proper operation.
(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.
Input Filter: An input filter inductor is optional for most applications. The inductor must be rated to handle the projected input current. A rating of 10ADC for
Vout ≤3.3V, and 15ADC for V out ≥4.5V is recommended. The input capacitance must be rated for a minimum of 1.6Arms of ripple current. For transient or dynamic
load applications, additional capacitance may be required.

PT8120 Series & PT8139
Capacitor Recommendations for the
PT8120 Series of Programmable ISRs
Input Capacitors
The recommended input capacitor(s) is determined by
1.6 Arms minimum ripple current rating and 1,500µF
minimum capacitance. Ripple current and Equivalent
Series Resistance (ESR) values are the major considerations
along with temperature when selecting the proper capacitor. The tantalum capacitors listed below cannot be used
on the input bus since they are not rated for 12V operation.
Output Capacitors
The minimum required output capacitance is 660µF
(organic/polymer), or 1,200 (aluminum electrolytic) with
a maximum ESR less than or equal to 50mΩ. Failure to
observe this requirement may lead to regulator instability or oscillation. Electrolytic capacitors have poor ripple
performance at frequencies greater than 400kHz, but
excellent low 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 are recommended on the output bus
but only AVX TPS Series, Sprague 593D/594/595 Series,
or Kemet T495/T510,520 Series. These capacitors are
recommended over other types due to their higher surge
current, excellent power dissipation and ripple current
ratings. As a caution, the TAJ Series by AVX is not recommended. This series exhibits considerably higher ESR,
reduced power dissipation and lower ripple current capability. The TAJ Series is also 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 are necessary to insure both optimum
regulator performance and long capacitor life.

Application Notes
PT8120 Series & PT8139
Using the On/Off Standby Function of the
PT8120 Series of Programmable ISRs
The PT8120 series of programmable ISRs incorporates
an On/Off Standby function. This feature may be used
to turn the regulated output of the module off while input
voltage is applied. This places the module in “standby”
mode. The standby control may be used for power-up
sequencing, or wherever there is a requirement to control
the module’s output status from another circuit.
2. In the standby mode the output of the regulator is tristate, and the output voltage falls at the rate that the
load circuit discharges the output filter capacitors.
3. When the ground signal to the Standby pin is
removed, the regulator output initiates a soft-start
cycle by first asserting a low impedance to ground. If
an external voltage is applied to the output bus, it will
sink current and possibly over-stress the part.
The Standby function is provided by the STBY* control,
pin 6. If pin 6 is left open-circuit the regulator operates
normally, providing a regulated output when a valid supply voltage is applied to Vin (pins 10-16) with respect to
GND (pins 17-22). Connecting pin 6 to ground 1 places
the regulator in standby mode 2, and reduces the input
current to typically 35mA. Applying a ground signal to
pin 6 prior to power-up, will inhibit the output during
the period that input power is applied. When the ground
signal to pin 6 is removed, the regulator initiates a softstart to re-establish the set output voltage. 3 To ensure
that the regulator output is properly enabled, the STBY*
control pin must be open circuit.

Turn-On Time
Turning Q 1 in Figure 1 off, removes the low-voltage
signal at pin 6. After approximately 5-ms the regulator
output rises and reaches full regulation within 40ms.
Fig. 2 shows the typical waveforms of a PT8121 following
the prompt turn-off of Q1. The turn-off of Q1 corresponds
to the rise in Vstby. The output voltage was set to 3.3V,
and the waveforms were measured with a 12V input source,
and 18A resistive load.

Notes:
1. The standby on a PT8120 series regulators must be

transistor (See fig. 1). Do Not use a pull-up resistor.
Table 1 gives the STBY* pin parameters. The control
pin has an open-circuit voltage of 5Vdc. To shut the
regulator output off, the control pin must be “pulled” to
less than 0.8Vdc with a low-impedance sink to ground.

PT8120 Series & PT8139
Pin-Coded Output Voltage Programming of the
30-A Rated PT8120 Series Regulators
4. If active devices are used to ground the voltage control
pins, low-level open drain MOSFETs should be used over
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.
The PT8120 series of Excalibur® ISRs incorporate a
pin-coded output voltage control. These regulators must
be programmed to a specific output voltage from a preset range defined by the regulator model. Programming
is achieved by selectively connecting the control inputs,
“VID0–VID4” (pins 1–5), to the “VID Common” (pin 11). 1
The programming code and voltage range for each model
is defined in the data sheet. Refer to the PT8120 Series
data sheet for more information. The program codes for
the PT8121, PT8122, and PT8124 models are also compatible with some of the “Voltage ID” codes defined by
Intel’s® VRM specifications. Figure 1 shows the pin-strap
connections for selecting the desired output voltage from
the program code range.
Active Voltage Programming:
Special precautions should be taken when making changes
to the voltage control progam code while the output is
active. It is recommended that the ISR be powered down
or held placed in standby. Changes made to the program
code while Vout is active 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. The transients induced may activate the module’s over-current
protection. If the program code cannot be asserted prior
to power-up, pull pin 6, STBY*, to GND during the
period that the input voltage is applied. The release of
pin 6 will then to allow the device to initiate a soft-start
power-up to the program voltage.
Notes:
1. The programming convention is as follows:Logic 0:
Connect to pin 11 (VID Common).
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, use pin 11 (VID
Common) as the logic “0” reference. If the regulator is
used to power a VRM compatible microprocessor this
may not be practical. In this case connect pin 11 to pins
17–22, or the ground plane close to the regulator.
