50A Digital DC/DC PMBus Power Module
The ISL8272M is a 50A step-down PMBus compliant digital
power module. Integrated in the module is a high performance
digital PWM controller, dual-phase power MOSFETs, inductors,
and the passives. This high efficiency power module is capable
of delivering 50A without the need for airflow and heatsinks.
The ISL8272M can be placed in a current sharing
configuration with up to four modules in parallel to deliver
200A continuous current.
The ISL8272M operates with the ChargeMode™ control
architecture, which responds to a transient load within a single
switching cycle. The ISL8272M comes with operating in a pin
strap mode; output voltage, switching frequency device, SMBus
address, input UVLO, soft-start/stop, and current sharing can be
programmed through external resistors. More configuration such
as fault limits, fault response, margining, and sequencing can be
easily programmed using the PMBus interface. PMBus can be
used to monitor voltages, currents, temperatures, and fault
status. The ISL8272M is supported by the PowerNavigator™
software, a graphical user interface (GUI) that can be used to
configure modules to a desired solution.
The ISL8272M is built in a compact (18mmx23mmx7.5mm)
and low profile overmolded HDA package, suitable for
automated assembly by standard surface mount equipment.

NOTES:
5. R2 and R3 are not required if the PMBus host already has I2C pull-up resistors.
6. Only one R4 per DDC bus is required when multiple modules share the same DDC bus.
7. R7 through R12 can be selected according to the tables for the pin-strap resistor setting in this document.
If the PMBus configuration is chosen to overwrite the pin-strap configuration, R8 through R12 can be non-populated.
8. V25, VR and VR55 do not need external capacitors. V25 can be no connection.

ISL8272M
Functional Description
TABLE 3. OUTPUT VOLTAGE RESISTOR SETTINGS (Continued)
SMBus Communications
The ISL8272M provides a PMBus digital interface that enables
the user to configure all aspects of the module operation as well
as monitor the input and output parameters. The ISL8272M can
be used with any SMBus host device. In addition, the module is
compatible with PMBus Power System Management Protocol
Specification Parts I and II version 1.2. The ISL8272M accepts
most standard PMBus commands. When configuring the device
with PMBus commands, it is recommended that the enable pin is
tied to SGND.
The SMBus device address is the only parameter that must be
set by external pins. All other device parameters can be set with
PMBus commands.
The ISL8272M can operate without the PMBus in pin-strap mode
with configurations programmed by pin-strap resistors, such as
output voltage, switching frequency, device SMBus address, input
UVLO, soft-start/stop, and current sharing. Note: pin-strap
resistors with 1% tolerance or better should be used for all the
pin-strap settings.
Output Voltage Selection
The output voltage may be set to a voltage between 0.6V and 5V
if the input voltage is higher than the desired output voltage by
an amount sufficient to maintain regulation.
The VSET pin is used to set the output voltage to levels as shown
in Table 3. The RSET resistor is placed between the VSET pin and
SGND. A standard 1% resistor is required.

The output voltage may also be set to any value between 0.6V and
5V using the PMBus command VOUT_COMMAND. This device
supports dynamic voltage scaling by allowing change to the output
voltage set point during regulation. The voltage transition rate is
specified with the PMBus command VOUT_TRANSITION_RATE.
By default, VOUT_MAX is set 110% higher than VOUT set by the pin
strap resistor, which can be changed to any value up to 5.5V with
the PMBus command VOUT_MAX.
Soft-Start/Stop Delay and Ramp Times
The ISL8272M follows an internal start-up procedure after power
is applied to the VDD pin. The module requires approximately
60ms to 70ms to check for specific values stored in its internal
memory and programmed by pin-strap resistors. Once this
process is completed, the device is ready to accept commands
from the PMBus interface and the module is ready to be enabled.
If the module is to be synchronized to an external clock source,
the clock frequency must be stable prior to asserting the EN pin.
It may be necessary to set a delay from when an enable signal is
received until the output voltage starts to ramp to its target
value. In addition, the designer may wish to precisely set the time
required for VOUT to ramp to its target value after the delay
period has expired. These features may be used as part of an
overall in-rush current management strategy or to precisely
control how fast a load IC is turned on. The ISL8272M gives the
system designer several options for precisely and independently
controlling both the delay and ramp time periods. The soft-start
delay period begins when the EN pin is asserted and ends when
the delay time expires.
The soft-start delay and ramp up time can be programmed to
custom values with the PMBus commands TON_DELAY and
TON_RISE. When the delay time is set to 0ms, the device begins
its ramp-up after the internal circuitry has initialized
(approximately 2ms). When the soft-start ramp period is set to
0ms, the output ramps up as quickly as the output load
capacitance and loop settings allow. It is generally
Page 17 of 59
ISL8272M
recommended to set the soft-start ramp to a value greater than
1ms to prevent inadvertent fault conditions due to excessive
in-rush current.
Similar to the soft-start delay and ramp up time, the delay and
ramp down time for soft-stop/off can be programmed with the
PMBus commands TOFF_DELAY and TOFF_FALL. In addition, the
module can be configured as “immediate off” with the command
ON_OFF_CONFIG, such that the FETs are turned off immediately
after the delay time expires.
In Current Sharing mode where multiple ISL8272M modules are
connected in parallel, ASCR must be disabled for the ramp up
with the USER_CONFIG command. Therefore, the soft-start rise
time is not equal to TON_RISE. It can be calculated
approximately by Equation 1.
TON_RISE
Rise Time (ms)  -------------------------------  330kHz  12V
V IN  f SW
(EQ. 1)
In Current Sharing mode, ASCR will be enabled automatically
upon power good assertion after the ramp completes. To avoid
premature ASCR turn on, it is recommended to increase
POWER_GOOD_DELAY if the rise time exceeds 10ms. In addition,
only “immediate off” is supported for current sharing.
The SS/UVLO pin can be used to program the soft start/stop
delay time and ramp time to some typical values as shown in
Table 4. A standard 1% resistor is required.

Power-Good
The ISL8272M provides a Power-Good (PG) signal that indicates
the output voltage is within a specified tolerance of its target
level and no fault condition exists. By default, the PG pin asserts
if the output is within 10% of the target voltage. This limit may be
changed using the PMBus command POWER_GOOD_ON.
A PG delay period is defined as the time from when all conditions
within the ISL8272M for asserting PG are met to when the PG pin
is actually asserted. This feature is commonly used instead of
using an external reset controller to control external digital logic.
A PG delay can be programmed with the PMBus command
POWER_GOOD_DELAY.
Switching Frequency and PLL
The device’s switching frequency is set from 296kHz to 1067kHz
using the pin strap method (for standalone non-current sharing
module only) as shown in Table 5, or by using the PMBus
command FREQUENCY_SWITCH. The ISL8272M incorporates an
internal phase-locked loop (PLL) to clock the internal circuitry.
The PLL can be driven by an external clock source connected to
the SYNC pin. The incoming clock signal must be in the range of
300kHz to 1.33MHz and must be stable when the enable pin is
asserted. When using an external clock, the frequencies are not
limited to discrete values as when using the internal clock. The
external clock signal must not vary more than 10% from its initial
value and should have a minimum pulse width of 150ns. It is
recommended that when using an external clock, the same
frequency should be set in the FREQUENCY_SWITCH command.
In case the external clock is lost, the module will automatically
switch to the internal clock. When using the internal oscillator,
the SYNC pin can be configured as a clock source as an external
sync to other modules. Refer to the SYNC_CONFIG command on
page 48 for more information. Note: if the pin-strap method is
used, a standard 1% resistor is required.

ISL8272M
Loop Compensation
The module loop response is programmable using the PMBus
command ASCR_CONFIG or by using the pin-strap method (ASCR
pin) according to Table 6. A standard 1% resistor is required. The
ISL8272M uses the ChargeMode™ control algorithm that
responds to output current changes within a single PWM
switching cycle, achieving a smaller total output voltage variation
with less output capacitance than traditional PWM controllers.
TABLE 6. ASCR RESISTOR SETTINGS
Fault response to an input undervoltage fault can be programmed
with PMBus command VIN_UV_FAULT_RESPONSE. If the input
undervoltage fault retry is enabled, the module will shut down
immediately once the input voltage falls below VUVLO and then
check the input voltage every 70ms. If the input voltage rises
above the input undervoltage warning level, the module will
restart. The input undervoltage warning is 1.05*VUVLO by default
and can be programmed with the PMBus command
VIN_UV_WARN_LIMIT. Note that fault retry is not supported in the
current sharing configuration.

Input Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO)
The input undervoltage lockout (UVLO) prevents the ISL8272M
from operating when the input falls below a preset threshold,
indicating the input supply is out of its specified range. The UVLO
threshold (VUVLO) can be set between 4.18V and 16V by using a
PMBus command VIN_UV_FAULT_LIMIT. Using the pin strap
method (SS/UVLO pin) as shown in Table 7, allows to set the
VUVLO to two typical values. A standard 1% resistor is required.

Output Overvoltage Protection
The ISL8272M offers an internal output overvoltage protection
circuit that can protect sensitive load circuitry from being
subjected to a voltage higher than its prescribed limits. A
hardware comparator compares the actual output voltage (seen
at the VSENP and VSENN pins) to a threshold set to 15% higher
than the target output voltage (the default setting). The fault
threshold can be programmed to a desired level with the PMBus
command VOUT_OV_FAULT_LIMIT. If the VSENP voltage exceeds
this threshold, the module will initiate an immediate shutdown
without retry. A 70ms continuous retry can be enabled with the
PMBus command VOUT_OV_FAULT_RESPONSE. Note that fault
retry is not supported in the current sharing configuration.
Internal to the module, two 22Ω resistors are populated from
VOUT to VSENP and SGND to VSENN to protect from overvoltage
conditions in case of open at voltage sensing pins and
differential remote sense traces due to assembly error. As long
as differential remote sense traces have low resistance, VOUT
regulation accuracy is not sacrificed.
Output Prebias Protection
An output prebias condition exists when an externally applied
voltage is present on a power supply’s output before the power
supply’s control IC is enabled. Certain applications require that
the converter not be allowed to sink current during start-up if a
prebias condition exists at the output. The ISL8272M provides
prebias protection by sampling the output voltage prior to
initiating an output ramp.
If a prebias voltage lower than the target voltage exists after the
pre-configured delay period has expired, the target voltage is set
to match the existing prebias voltage and both drivers are
enabled. The output voltage is then ramped to the final
regulation value at the pre-configured ramp rate.
The actual time the output takes to ramp from the prebias
voltage to the target voltage varies, depending on the prebias
voltage; however, the total time elapsed from when the delay
period expires to when the output reaches its target value will
match the pre-configured ramp time (see Figure 26).

FIGURE 26. OUTPUT RESPONSES TO PREBIAS VOLTAGES
If a prebias voltage is higher than the target voltage after the preconfigured delay period has expired, the target voltage is set to
match the existing prebias voltage and both drivers are enabled
with a PWM duty cycle that would ideally create the prebias
voltage.
Once the preconfigured soft-start ramp period has expired, the
PG pin is asserted (assuming the prebias voltage is not higher
than the overvoltage limit). The PWM then adjusts its duty cycle
to match the original target voltage and the output ramps down
to the pre-configured output voltage.
If a prebias voltage is higher than the overvoltage limit, the
device does not initiate a turn-on sequence and declares an
overvoltage fault condition. The device then responds based on
the output overvoltage fault response setting programmed with
the PMBus command VOUT_OV_FAULT_RESPONSE.
Output Overcurrent Protection
The ISL8272M can protect the power supply from damage if the
output is shorted to ground or if an overload condition is imposed
on the output. Average output overcurrent fault threshold can be
programmed with the PMBus command IOUT_OC_FAULT_LIMIT.
The module automatically programs the peak inductor current
fault threshold by calculating the inductor ripple current from the
input voltage, switching frequency, and the VOUT_COMMAND.
When the peak inductor current crosses the peak inductor
current fault threshold for three successive switching cycles it will
initiate an immediate shutdown.
The default response from an overcurrent fault is an immediate
shutdown without retry. A 70ms continuous retry can be enabled
with the PMBus command MFR_IOUT_OC_FAULT_RESPONSE. It
is required to enable the output undervoltage fault retry with the
PMBus command VOUT_UV_FAULT_RESPONSE command
simultaneously if the overcurrent fault retry is enabled. Note that
fault retry is not supported in the current sharing configuration.
Page 20 of 59
ISL8272M
Thermal Overload Protection
The ISL8272M includes a thermal sensor that continuously
measures the internal temperature of the module and shuts
down the controller when the temperature exceeds the preset
limit. The default temperature limit is set to +125°C in the
factory, but can be changed with PMBus command
OT_FAULT_LIMIT.
The default response from an over-temperature fault is an
immediate shutdown without retry. Retry settings can be
programmed with the PMBus command OT_FAULT_RESPONSE.
Hysteresis is implemented with the over-temperature fault retry.
If retry is enabled, the module will shut down immediately upon
an over-temperature fault event and then check the temperature
every 70ms. If the temperature falls below the over-temperature
warning level, the module will restart. The over-temperature
warning is +105°by default and programmable with the PMBus
command OT_WARN_LIMIT. Note that fault retry is not supported
in the current sharing configuration.
Digital-DC Bus
The Digital-DC Communications (DDC) bus is used to
communicate between Intersil digital power modules and digital
controllers. This dedicated bus provides the communication
channel between devices for features such as current sharing,
sequencing, and fault spreading. The DDC pin on all Digital-DC
devices in an application should be connected together. A pull-up
resistor is required on the DDC bus in order to guarantee the rise
time as shown in Equation 2:
(EQ. 2)
Rise Time = R PU C LOAD  1s
where RPU is the DDC bus pull-up resistance and CLOAD is the
bus loading. The pull-up resistor may be tied to an external 3.3V
or 5V supply as long as this voltage is present prior to or during
device power-up. In principle, each device connected to the DDC
bus presents approximately 10pF of capacitive loading and each
inch of FR4 PCB trace introduces approximately 2pF. The ideal
design uses a central pull-up resistor that is well-matched to the
total load capacitance.
Active Current Sharing
Paralleling multiple ISL8272M modules can increase the output
current capability of a single power rail. By connecting the DDC
and SYNC pins of each module together and configuring the
modules as a current sharing rail, the units will share the current
equally within a few percent.

FIGURE 27. CURRENT SHARING GROUP
The ISL8272M uses a DDC bus based digital current sharing
technique to balance the steady state module output current by
aligning the load lines of member modules to a reference
module.
When multiple ISL8272M modules are connected for current
sharing, a non-zero active droop resistance must be set to add
artificial resistance in the output voltage path to control the slope
of the load line curve, calibrating out the physical parasitic
mismatches due to power train components and PCB layout. The
active droop resistance can be programmed with the PMBus
command VOUT_DROOP based on Equation 3. Typically, higher
droop value offers a more accurate dynamic current sharing at
the sacrifice of output load regulation. 1% droop at full load will
be a good trade-off between output load regulation and dynamic
current sharing.

Upon system start-up, the module with the lowest device position
as selected in DDC_CONFIG is defined as the reference module.
The remaining modules are members. The reference module
broadcasts its current over the DDC bus. The members use the
reference current information to trim their voltages (VMEMBER) to
balance the current loading of each module in the system.

Phase Spreading
When multiple point-of-load converters share a common DC
input supply, it is desirable to adjust the clock phase offset of
each device so that not all devices start to switch simultaneously.
Setting each converter to start its switching cycle at a different
point in time can dramatically reduce input capacitance
requirements and efficiency losses. Because the peak current
drawn from the input supply is effectively spread out over a
period of time, the peak current drawn at any given moment is
reduced and the power losses proportional to the IRMS2 are
reduced dramatically.
To enable phase spreading, all converters must be synchronized
to the same switching clock. The phase offset of each device
may also be set to any value between 0° and 360° in 22.5°
increments with the PMBus command INTERLEAVE. The internal
two phases of the module always maintain a phase difference
of 180°.
Fault Spreading
Digital-DC modules and devices can be configured to broadcast a
fault event over the DDC bus to the other devices in the group
with the PMBus command DDC_GROUP. When a nondestructive
fault occurs, the device shuts down and broadcasts the fault
Page 22 of 59
ISL8272M
event over the DDC bus. The other devices on the DDC bus shut
down simultaneously if configured to do so, and attempt to
restart.
Note that fault retry is not supported in multiple modules with
fault spreading enabled, such as the current sharing
configuration.
Output Sequencing
A group of Digital-DC modules or devices may be configured to
power-up in a predetermined sequence. This feature is especially
useful when powering advanced processors (FPGAs and ASICs)
that require one supply to reach its operating voltage prior to
another supply reaching its operating voltage in order to avoid
latch-up. Multi-device sequencing can be achieved by configuring
each device with the PMBus command SEQUENCE. Multiple
device sequencing is configured by issuing PMBus commands to
assign the preceding device in the sequencing chain as well as
the device that follows in the sequencing.
The Enable pins of all devices in a sequencing group must be tied
together and driven high to initiate a sequenced turn-on of the
group. Enable must be driven low to initiate a sequenced turnoff
of the group. It is recommend to enable fault spreading with the
PMBus command DDC_GROUP within a sequencing group.
Monitoring with SMBus
A system controller can monitor a wide variety of different
ISL8272M system parameters with PMBus commands:
• READ_VIN
• READ_VOUT
• READ_IOUT
• READ_INTERNAL_TEMP
• READ_DUTY_CYCLE
• READ_FREQEUNCY
• READ_VMON
Snapshot Parameter Capture
The ISL8272M offers a special feature to capture parametric data
and some fault status following a fault. A detailed description is
provided in “PMBus Commands Description” on page 29 under
the PMBus commands SNAPSHOT and SNAPSHOT_CONTROL.
Layout Guide
To achieve stable operation, low losses, and good thermal
performance, proper layout (Figure 29) is important.
• Establish separate SGND plane and PGND planes, then
connect SGND to the PGND plane on the middle layer and
underneath PAD6 with a single point connection. For SGND
and PGND pin connections, such as small pins H16, J16, M5,
and M17..., use multiple vias for each pin to connect to the
inner SGND or PGND layer.
• Place enough ceramic capacitors between VIN and PGND,
VOUT and PGND and bypass capacitors between VDD, VDRV
and the ground plane, as close to the module as possible to
minimize high frequency noise. It is critical to place the output
ceramic capacitors as close to the center of the two VOUT pads
as possible, to create a low impedance path for the high
frequency inductor ripple current.
• Use large copper areas for power path (VIN, PGND, VOUT) to
minimize conduction loss and thermal stress. Also, use
multiple vias to connect the power planes in different layers. It
is recommended to enlarge PAD11 and PAD15 and to put
more vias on these pads. The ceramic caps CIN can be put on
the bottom layer under these two pads.
• Connect remote sensed traces to the regulation points to
achieve a tight output voltage regulation and keep them in
parallel. Route a trace from VSENN and VSENP to the point of
load where the tight output voltage is desired. Avoid routing
any sensitive signal traces, such as the VSENN, VSENP sensing
point near the SW pins.
• The SW1 and SW2 pads are noisy pads, but they are beneficial
for thermal dissipations. If the noise issue is critical for the
applications, it is recommended to use top layer only for SW
pads. For better thermal performance, use multiple vias on
these pads to connect into SW inner and bottom layer.
However, be very careful when placing limited SW planes in
any layer. The SW planes should avoid the sensing signals and
should be surrounded by the PGND layer to avoid noise
coupling.
• For pins SWD1 (L3) and SWD2 (P10), it is recommended to
connect to the related SW1 and SW2 pads with short loop
wires. The wire width should be greater than 20 mils.
Nonvolatile Memory
The ISL8272M has internal nonvolatile memory where user
configurations are stored. Integrated security measures ensure
that the user can only restore the module to a level that has been
made available to them. During the initialization process, the
ISL8272M checks for stored values contained in its internal
nonvolatile memory.
Modules are shipped with a factory default configuration and
most settings can be overwritten with PMBus commands and
can be stored in nonvolatile memory with the PMBus command
STORE_USER_ALL.

Thermal Considerations
Experimental power loss curves along with θJA from thermal
modeling analysis can be used to evaluate the thermal
consideration for the module. The derating curves are derived
from the maximum power allowed while maintaining the
temperature below the maximum junction temperature of
+125°C. In actual applications, other heat sources and design
margins should be considered.
Package Description
The structure of the ISL8272M belongs to the High Density Array
No-lead package (HDA). This package offers good thermal and
electrical conductivity, low weight, and small size. The HDA
package is applicable for surface mounting technology and is
being more readily used in the industry. The ISL8272M contains
several types of devices, including resistors, capacitors,
inductors, and control ICs. The ISL8272M is a copper lead-frame
based package with exposed copper thermal pads, which have
good electrical and thermal conductivity. The copper lead frame
and multi component assembly is overmolded with polymer
mold compound to protect these devices.
The package outline and typical PCB layout pattern design and
typical stencil pattern design are shown in the “Package Outline
Drawing” starting on page 53. The module has a small size of
18mmx23mmx7.5mm.
PCB Layout Pattern Design
The bottom of the ISL8272M is a lead-frame footprint, which is
attached to the PCB by a surface mounting process. The PCB
layout pattern is shown on pages 57 to 59. The PCB layout
pattern is an array of solder mask defined PCB lands which align
with the perimeters of the HDA exposed pads and I/O
termination dimensions. The thermal lands on the PCB layout
FN8670 Rev.5.00
Nov 8, 2017
Stencil Pattern Design
Reflowed solder joints on the perimeter I/O lands should have
about a 50µm to 75µm (2mil to 3mil) standoff height. The solder
paste stencil design is the first step in developing optimized,
reliable solder joints. The stencil aperture size to solder mask
defined PCB land size ratio should typically be 1:1. The aperture
width may be reduced slightly to help prevent solder bridging
between adjacent I/O lands. A typical solder stencil pattern is
shown in the “Package Outline Drawing” starting on page 55. The
gap width between pad to pad is 0.6mm. Consider the symmetry
of the whole stencil pattern when designing its pads. A laser cut,
stainless steel stencil with electropolished trapezoidal walls is
recommended. Electropolishing “smooths” the aperture walls,
resulting in reduced surface friction and better paste release which
reduces voids. Using a Trapezoidal Section Aperture (TSA) also
promotes paste release and forms a brick-like paste deposit that
assists in firm component placement. A 0.1mm to 0.15mm stencil
thickness is recommended for this large pitch HDA.
Reflow Parameters
Due to the HDA’s low mount height, “No Clean” Type 3 solder
paste per ANSI/J-STD-005 is recommended. Nitrogen purge is
recommended during reflow. A system board reflow profile
depends on the thermal mass of the entire populated board, so it
is not practical to define a specific soldering profile just for the
HDA. The profile in Figure 30 is a guideline to be customized for
varying manufacturing practices and applications.

A grid of 1.0mm to 1.2mm pitch thermal vias, which drops down
and connects to buried copper plane(s), should be placed under the
thermal land. The vias should be about 0.3mm to 0.33mm in
diameter with the barrel plated to about 1.0 ounce copper.
Although adding more vias (by decreasing via pitch) will improve
the thermal performance, diminishing returns will be seen as more
and more vias are added. Simply use as many vias as practical for
the thermal land size and your board design rules allow.

PMBus Use Guidelines
The PMBus is a powerful tool that allows the user to optimize circuit performance by configuring devices for their application. When
configuring a device in a circuit, the device should be disabled whenever most settings are changed with PMBus commands. Some
exceptions to this recommendation are OPERATION, ON_OFF_CONFIG, CLEAR_FAULTS, VOUT_COMMAND, VOUT_MARGIN_HIGH,
VOUT_MARGIN_LOW, and ASCCR_CONFIG. While the device is enabled any command can be read. Many commands do not take effect
until after the device has been re-enabled, hence the recommendation that commands that change device settings are written while
the device is disabled.
When sending the STORE_DEFAULT_ALL, STORE_USER_ALL, RESTORE_DEFAULT_ALL, and RESTORE_USER_ALL commands, it is
recommended that no other commands are sent to the device for 100ms after sending STORE or RESTORE commands.
In addition, there should be a 2ms delay between repeated READ commands sent to the same device. When sending any other
command, a 5ms delay is recommended between repeated commands sent to the same device. Commands not listed in the PMBus
command summary are not allowed for customer use, and are reserved for factory use only. Issuing reserved commands may result in
unexpected operation.
Summary
All commands can be read at any time.
Always disable the device when writing commands that change device settings. Exceptions to this rule are commands intended to be
written while the device is enabled, for example, VOUT_MARGIN_HIGH.
To be sure a change to a device setting has taken effect, write the STORE_USER_ALL command, then cycle input power and re-enable.

ASCR_CONFIG (DFh)
Definition: Allows user configuration of ASCR settings. ASCR Gain is analogous to bandwidth and ASCR Residual is analogous to
damping. To improve load transient response performance, increase ASCR Gain. To lower transient response overshoot, increase ASCR
Residual. Increasing ASCR gain can result in increased PWM jitter and should be evaluated in the application circuit. Excessive ASCR
gain can lead to excessive output voltage ripple. Increasing ASCR Residual to improve transient response damping can result in slower
recovery times, but will not affect the peak output voltage deviation. Typical ASCR Gain settings range from 50 to 1000 and ASCR
Residual settings range from 10 to 100.

SEQUENCE (E0h)
Definition: Identifies the Rail DDC ID of the prequel and sequel rails when performing multi-rail sequencing. The device will enable its
output when its EN or OPERATION enable states, as defined by ON_OFF_CONFIG, are set and the prequel device has issued a
Power-Good event on the DDC bus. The device will disable its output (using the programmed delay values) when the sequel device has
issued a Power-Down event on the DDC bus.
The data field is a two-byte value. The most-significant byte contains the 5-bit Rail DDC ID of the prequel device. The least-significant
byte contains the 5-bit Rail DDC ID of the sequel device. The most significant bit of each byte contains the enable of the prequel or
sequel mode. This command overrides the corresponding sequence configuration set by the CONFIG pin settings.
