Notes:
(1) All electrical characteristics are for the application circuit on page 19.
(2) Guaranteed by design
(3) Tracking Difference is defined as the delta between 3.3V Vin and the VTT, AGP, ADJ output voltages during the linear ramp up until
regulation is achieved. The Tracking Voltage difference might vary depending on MOSFETs Rdson, and Load Conditions.
(4) During power up, an internal short circuit glitch timer will start once the VTT Input Voltage exceeds the VTTINTH (1.5V). During the glitch
timer immunity time, determined by the Delay capacitor (Delay time is approximately equal to (Cdelay*SCTH)/ISC), the short circuit
protection is disabled to allow VTT output to rise above the trip threshold (0.7V). If the VTT output has not risen above the trip
threshold after the immunity time has elapsed, the VTT output is latched off and will only be enabled again if either the VTT input
voltage or the 5VSTBY is cycled.
(5) PWRGD pin is kept low during the power up, until the VTT output has reached its PGtd1.2 or PGtd1.5 level. At that time the PWRGD
source current IPG (20uA) is enabled and will start charging the external PWRGD delay capacitor connected to the DELAY pin. Once the
capacitor is charged above the PGDelay_TH (1.5V), the PWRGD pin is released from ground.

POWER MANAGEMENT
Applications Infomation
Theory Of Operation
The SC1112 was designed for the latest high speed mother
boards requiring a controled power up sequencing of the
Outputs, and a programable delay for the Power good signal.
Three Linear controllers have been incorperated into the
SC1112. The VTT output can be programmed to either a
1.250V or a 1.500V by applying a LOW or a HIGH control
signal to the VTTSEL pin. AGP output can also be
prgorammed via AGPSEL pin to a 1.50V or a 3.30V. The
SC1112 also provides an Adjustable output which utilizes
a resistive voltage divider.
Also included is an overcurrent protection circuit that monitors the VTT voltage. If the output voltage drops below
700mV, as would occur during an overcurrent or short
condition, the device will pull the drive pin low and latch
off the output.
Fixed Output Voltage Options (VTT, AGP)
Please refer to the Application Circuit on Page 1. The VTT
and the AGP fixed output voltage can be programed from
a Control logic signal. Table below shows the possible Voltages:
The +5VSTBY supply will power the internal Reference,
Charge Pump, Oscillator, and the Fet controllers. After the
+5VSTBy has been established, LDO outputs will track the
VTTIN (3.30V) supply as it is applied.
An external capaitor connected to the Delay pin will program the VTT short circuit delay time (SCtd), and the PWRGD
delay time (PGtd).
During power up, an internal short circuit glitch timer will
start once the VTT Input Voltage exceeds the VTTINTH (1.5V).
During the glitch timer immunity time, determined by the
Delay capacitor (Delay time is approximately equal to
(Cdelay*SCTH)/ISC), the short circuit protection is disabled
to allow VTT output to rise above the trip threashold (0.7V).
If the VTT output has not risen above the trip threashold
after the immunity time has elapsed, the VTT output is
latched off and will only be enabled again if either the VTT
input voltage or the 5VSTBY is cycled.
PWRGD pin is kept low during the power up, until the VTT
output has reached its PGtd1.25 or PGtd1.5 level. At that time
the PWRGD source current IPG (20uA) is enabled and will
start charging the external PWRGD delay capacitor
connected to the DELAY pin. Once the capacitor is charged
above the PGDelay_TH (1.5V), the PWRGD pin is released from
ground. A detailed timing diagram is shown on pages 4 to
5.

Once the VTTSEL or the AGPSEL signal is established, an
internal resistive divider is used to compare the bandgap
reference voltage with the feed back output voltage. The
drive pin voltage is then adjusted to
maintain the output voltage set by the internal resistor
divider. Referring to the block diagram on page 7.
It is possible to adjust the output voltage of the VTT or
AGP, by applying an external resistor divider to the sense
pin (please refer to Figure 1 on Page 11). Since the sense
pin sinks a nominal 100µA, the resistor
values should be selected to allow 10mA to flow through
the divider. This will ensure that variations in this current
do not adversely affect output voltage regulation. Thus a
target value for R2 (maximum) can be calculated:
R2 ≤
V OUT ( FIXED )
10 mA
Ω
The output voltage can only be adjusted upwards from the
fixed output voltage, and can be calculated using the
following equation:

Adjustable Output Voltage Option
The adjustable output voltage option does not have an
internal resistor divider. The adjust pin connects directly to
the inverting input of the error amplifier, and the
output voltage is set using external resistors (please
refer to Figure 2). In this case, the adjust pin sources a
nominal 0.5µA, so the resistor values should be selected
to allow 50µA to flow through the divider. Again, a target

The maximum output voltage that can be obtained from
the adjustable option is determined by the input supply
voltage and the RDS(ON) and gate threshold voltage of the
external MOSFET. Assuming that the MOSFET gate

Applications Infomation (Cont.)
Short Circuit Protection
Layout Guidelines
The VTT short circuit protection feature of the SC1112 is
implemented by using the RDS(ON) of the MOSFET. As the
output current increases, the regulation loop maintains
the output voltage by turning the FET on more and more.
Eventually, as the RDS(ON) limit is reached, the MOSFET will
be unable to turn on any further, and the output
voltage will start to fall. When the VTT output voltage falls
to approximately 700mV, the LDO controller is latched off,
setting output voltage to 0V. Power must be cycled to reset the latch.
One of the advantages of using the SC1112 to drive an
external MOSFET is that the bandgap reference and
control circuitry do not need to be located right next to the
power device, thus a very accurate output voltage can be
obtained since heating effects will be minimal.
To prevent false latching due to capacitor inrush currents
or low supply rails, the current limit latch is initially
disabled. It is enabled once the short circuit delay time
has elapsed. Timing diagram on pages 4 to 5 will show a
detailed operation of the Short circuit protection circuitry.
To be most effective, the MOSFET RDS(ON) should not be
selected artificially low. The MOSFET should be
chosen so that at maximum required current, it is almost
fully turned on. If, for example, a supply of 1.5V at 4A is
required from a 3.3V ± 5% rail, the maximum allowable
RDS(ON) would be:
R DS ( ON )( MAX ) =
The 0.1µF bypass capacitor should be located close to the
+5VSTBY supply pin, and connected directly to the ground
plane. The ground pin of the device should also be connected directly to the ground plane. The sense or adjust
pin does not need to be close to the output voltage plane,
but should be routed to avoid noisy traces if at all possible.
Power dissipation within the device is practically
negligible, requiring no special consideration during
layout.
(0 .95 • 3 .3 − 1 .5 • 1 .025 ) ≈ 400 m Ω
4
To allow for temperature effects 200mΩ would be a
suitable room temperature maximum, allowing a peak
short circuit current of approximately 15A for a short time
before shutdown.
Capacitor Selection
Output Capacitors: low ESR aluminum electrolytic or tantalum capacitors are recommended for bulk
capacitance, with ceramic bypass capacitors for decoupling
high frequency transients.
Input Capacitors: placement of low ESR aluminum
electrolytic or tantalum capacitors at the input to the
MOSFET (VTTIN) will help to hold up the power supply
during fast load changes, thus improving overall transient
response. The +5VSTBY supply should be bypassed with a
10µF ceramic capacitor.
