APPLICATIONS
The LX1677 is a highly integrated
VRM power supply controller IC
featuring two PWM switching
regulator stages.
The two constant frequency
voltage-mode PWM phases are
configured as a single biphase high
current output core supply.
In biphase operation, the high
current (>35A) output is generated by
a LoadSHARE
TM
鈥?technique that
balances the currents in the two
phases. Power loss and noise, due to
the ESR of the input capacitors, are
minimized by operating the PWMs
180擄 out of phase.
A

Loop鈥?/div>
provides
exceptional control of the output
droop and overshoot during very high
di/dt load changes, the circuit can be
configured for droop only, overshoot
only or both.
This architecture also minimizes
capacitor
requirements
while
maximizing regulator response.
A true differential input amplifier is
used for remote voltage sensing at the
processor core.
A VID code generator provides an
internal reference that will set the
output voltage. This VID code can be
changed during operation and the
reference will slew the output voltage to
its new setting at a preset rate. During
VID changes on the fly the Power Good
indication will stay valid.
The current through the lower phase
1 MOSFET will be sampled using its
R
DS(ON)
for current limit and shut
down.
For further protection, an over
voltage circuit will trip at a specified
setting and clamp the output by turning
off the upper MOSFETs and turning on
the lower MOSFETs.
The upper MOSFET drivers use a
bootstrap capacitor to provide the upper
drive voltage over the input voltage
range of 6 to 24 volts.
