Microprocessor CORE Voltage Regulator Multi-Phase Buck PWM Controller
The ISL6553 multi-phase PWM control IC together with its
companion gate drivers, the HIP6601, HIP6602 or HIP6603
Features
• Multi-Phase Power Conversion
provides a precision voltage regulation system for advanced
microprocessors. Multi-phase power conversion is a marked
departure from earlier single phase converter configurations
previously employed to satisfy the ever increasing current
demands of modern microprocessors. Multi-phase
converters, by distributing the power and load current results
in smaller and lower cost transistors with fewer input and
output capacitors. These reductions accrue from the higher
effective conversion frequency with higher frequency ripple
current due to the phase interleaving process of this
topology. For example, a two phase converter operating at
350kHz will have a ripple frequency of 700kHz. Moreover,
greater converter bandwidth of this design results in faster
response to load transients.

Number Channels . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .100kHz to 3MHz
Outstanding features of this controller IC include
programmable VID codes from the microprocessor that
range from 1.05V to 1.825V with a system accuracy of 1%.
Pull up currents on these VID pins eliminates the need for
external pull up resistors. In addition “droop” compensation,
used to reduce the overshoot or undershoot of the CORE
voltage, is easily programmed with a single resistor.
• Pb-free available

• Technical Brief TB363 “Guidelines for Handling and
Processing Moisture Sensitive Surface Mount Devices
(SMDs)”
Another feature of this controller IC is the PGOOD monitor
circuit which is held low until the CORE voltage increases,
during its Soft-Start sequence, to within 10% of the
programmed voltage. Over-voltage, 15% above
programmed CORE voltage, results in the converter shutting
down and turning the lower MOSFETs ON to clamp and
protect the microprocessor. Under voltage is also detected
and results in PGOOD low if the CORE voltage falls 10%
below the programmed level. Over-current protection
reduces the regulator RMS output current to 41% of the
programmed over-current trip value. These features provide
monitoring and protection for the microprocessor and power
system.

increased comparator output duty cycle. This increased duty
cycle signal is passed through the PWM circuit with no phase
reversal and on to the HIP6601, again with no phase reversal
for gate drive to the upper MOSFETs, Q1 and Q3. Increased
duty cycle or ON time for the MOSFET transistors results in
increased output voltage to compensate for the low output
voltage sensed.
Operation
Figure 1 shows a simplified diagram of the voltage regulation
and current control loops. Both voltage and current feedback
are used to precisely regulate voltage and tightly control output
currents, I and I , of the two power channels. The voltage
L1 L2
loop comprises the Error Amplifier, Comparators, gate drivers
and output MOSFETs. The Error Amplifier is essentially
connected as a voltage follower that has as an input, the
Programmable Reference DAC and an output that is the
CORE voltage.
Current Loop
The current control loop works in a similar fashion to the
voltage control loop, but with current control information
applied individually to each channel’s comparator. The
information used for this control is the voltage that is developed

the inverting input of the error amplifier. This signal can drive
the error amplifier output either high or low, depending upon
the CORE voltage. Low CORE voltage makes the amplifier
output move towards a higher output voltage level. Amplifier
output voltage is applied to the positive inputs of the
comparators via the correction summing networks. Out-of-
phase sawtooth signals are applied to the two comparators
inverting inputs. Increasing error amplifier voltage results in
they are conducting. A single resistor converts and scales the
voltage across the MOSFETs to a current that is applied to the
current sensing circuit within the ISL6553. Output from these
sensing circuits is applied to the current averaging circuit. Each
PWM channel receives the difference current signal from the
summing circuit that compares the average sensed current to
the individual channel current. When a power channel’s current
is greater than the average current, the signal applied via the

summing correction circuit to the comparator, reduces the
output pulse width of the comparator to compensate for the
detected “above average” current in that channel.
condition that makes these outputs essentially open. This state
results in no gate drive to the output MOSFETs.
Once the VCC voltage reaches 4.375V (+125mV), a voltage
level to insure proper internal function, the PWM outputs are
enabled and the soft-start sequence is initiated. If for any
reason, the VCC voltage drops below 3.875V (+125mV). The
POR circuit shuts the converter down and again three states
the PWM outputs.
Droop Compensation
In addition to control of each power channel’s output current,
the average channel current is also used to provide CORE
voltage “droop” compensation. Average full channel current is
defined as 50A. By selecting an input resistor, R , the
IN
amount of voltage droop required at full load current can be
programmed. The average current driven into the FB pin
Soft-Start
After the POR function is completed with VCC reaching
4.375V, the soft-start sequence is initiated. Soft-Start, by its
slow rise in CORE voltage from zero, avoids an over-current
condition by slowly charging the discharged output capacitors.
This voltage rise is initiated by an internal DAC that slowly
raises the reference voltage to the error amplifier input. The
voltage rise is controlled by the oscillator frequency and the
DAC within the ISL6553, therefore, the output voltage is
effectively regulated as it rises to the final programmed CORE
voltage value.
results in a voltage increase across resistor R that is in the
IN
direction to make the error amplifier “see” a higher voltage at
the inverting input, resulting in the error amplifier adjusting the
output voltage lower. The voltage developed across R is
IN
equal to the “droop” voltage. See the “Current Sensing and
Balancing” section for more details.
Applications and Converter Start-Up
Each PWM power channel’s current is regulated. This enables
the PWM channels to accurately share the load current for
enhanced reliability. The HIP6601, HIP6602 or HIP6603
MOSFET driver interfaces with the ISL6553. For more
information, see the HIP6601, HIP6602 or HIP6603 data
sheets [1] [2].
For the first 32 PWM switching cycles, the DAC output remains
inhibited and the PWM outputs remain three stated. From the
33rd cycle and for another, approximately 150 cycles the PWM
output remains low, clamping the lower output MOSFETs to
ground, see Figure 3. The time variability is due to the error
amplifier, sawtooth generator and comparators moving into
their active regions. After this short interval, the PWM outputs
are enabled and increment the PWM pulse width from zero
duty cycle to operational pulse width, thus allowing the output
voltage to slowly reach the CORE voltage. The CORE voltage
will reach its programmed value before the 2048 cycles, but
the PGOOD output will not be initiated until the 2048th PWM
switching cycle.
The ISL6553 controls the two PWM power channels 180
degrees out of phase. Figure 2 shows the out of phase
relationship between the two PWM channels.

The Soft-Start time or delay time, DT = 2048/F . For an
SW
oscillator frequency, F , of 200kHz, the first 32 cycles or
SW
160s, the PWM outputs are held in a three state level as
explained above. After this period and a short interval
described above, the PWM outputs are initiated and the
voltage rises in 10.08ms, for a total delay time DT of 10.24ms.

Power supply ripple frequency is determined by the channel
frequency, F , multiplied by the number of active channels.

Figure 3 shows the start-up sequence as initiated by a fast
rising 5V supply, VCC, applied to the ISL6553. Note the short
rise to the three state level in PWM 1 output during first 32
PWM cycles.
For example, if the channel frequency is set to 250kHz, the
ripple frequency is 500kHz.
The IC monitors and precisely regulates the CORE voltage of a
microprocessor. After initial start-up, the controller also
provides protection for the load and the power supply. The
following section discusses these features.
Figure 4 shows the waveforms when the regulator is operating
at 200kHz. Note that the Soft-Start duration is a function of the
channel frequency as explained previously. Also note the
pulses on the COMP terminal. These pulses are the current
correction signal feeding into the comparator input (see the
Block Diagram ).
Initialization
The ISL6553 usually operates from an ATX power supply.
Many functions are initiated by the rising supply voltage to the
VCC pin of the ISL6553. Oscillator, sawtooth generator, soft-
start and other functions are initialized during this interval.
These circuits are controlled by POR, Power-On Reset. During
this interval, the PWM outputs are driven to a three state
Figure 5 shows the regulator operating from an ATX supply. In
this figure, note the slight rise in PGOOD as the 5V supply
rises. The PGOOD output stage is made up of NMOS and
PMOS transistors. On the rising VCC, the PMOS device

becomes active slightly before the NMOS transistor pulls
“down”, generating the slight rise in the PGOOD voltage.

SUPPLY
Note that Figure 5 shows the 12V gate driver voltage available
before the 5V supply to the ISL6553 has reached its threshold
level. If conditions were reversed and the 5V supply was to rise
first, the start-up sequence would be different. In this case the
ISL6553 will sense an over-current condition due to charging
the output capacitors. The supply will then restart and go
through the normal Soft-Start cycle.

The VSEN pin is connected to the microprocessor CORE
voltage. A CORE over-voltage condition is detected when the
VSEN pin goes more than 15% above the programmed VID
level.
FIGURE 3. START-UP OF 4 PHASE SYSTEM OPERATING AT
500kHz
The over-voltage condition is latched, disabling normal PWM
operation, and causing PGOOD to go low. The latch can only
be reset by lowering and returning VCC high to initiate a POR
and Soft-Start sequence.
V COMP
During a latched over-voltage, the PWM outputs will be driven
either low or three state, depending upon the VSEN input.
PWM outputs are driven low when the VSEN pin detects that
the CORE voltage is 15% above the programmed VID level.
This condition drives the PWM outputs low, resulting in the
lower or synchronous rectifier MOSFETs to conduct and shunt
the CORE voltage to ground to protect the load.

If after this event, the CORE voltage falls below the over-
voltage limit (plus some hysteresis), the PWM outputs will
three state. The HIP6601 family drivers pass the three state
information along, and shuts off both upper and lower
MOSFETs. This prevents “dumping” of the output capacitors
back through the lower MOSFETs, avoiding a possibly
destructive ringing of the capacitors and output inductors. If the
conditions that caused the over-voltage still persist, the PWM

PGOOD to go low, but has no other effect on operation and is
not latched. There is also hysteresis in this detection point.

Over-Current
In the event of an over-current condition, the over-current
protection circuit reduces the RMS current delivered to 41% of
the current limit. When an over-current condition is detected,
the controller forces all PWM outputs into a three state mode.
This condition results in the gate driver removing drive to the
output stages. The ISL6553 goes into a wait delay timing cycle
that is equal to the Soft-Start ramp time. PGOOD also goes
“low” during this time due to VSEN going below its threshold
voltage. To lower the average output dissipation, the Soft-Start
initial wait time is increased from 32 to 2048 cycles, then the
Soft-Start ramp is initiated. At a PWM frequency of 200kHz, for
instance, an over-current detection would cause a dead time of
10.24ms, then a ramp of 10.08ms.

Figure 6 shows the supply shorted under operation and the

and parasitic circuit elements. These voltage spikes can
degrade efficiency, radiate noise into the circuit and lead to
device over-voltage stress. Careful component layout and
printed circuit design minimizes the voltage spikes in the
converter. Consider, as an example, the turnoff transition of
the upper PWM MOSFET. Prior to turnoff, the upper MOSFET
was carrying channel current. During the turnoff, current stops
flowing in the upper MOSFET and is picked up by the lower
MOSFET. Any inductance in the switched current path
generates a large voltage spike during the switching interval.
Careful component selection, tight layout of the critical
components, and short, wide circuit traces minimize the
magnitude of voltage spikes. Contact Intersil for evaluation

capacitor to high slew-rate transient loading. Unfortunately,
ESL is not a specified parameter. Consult the capacitor
manufacturer and measure the capacitor’s impedance with
frequency to select a suitable component.
Component Selection Guidelines
Output Capacitor Selection
The output capacitor is selected to meet both the dynamic load
requirements and the voltage ripple requirements. The load
transient for the microprocessor CORE is characterized by
high slew rate (di/dt) current demands. In general, multiple
high quality capacitors of different size and dielectric are
paralleled to meet the design constraints.
Output Inductor Selection
One of the parameters limiting the converter’s response to a
load transient is the time required to change the inductor
current. Small inductors in a multi-phase converter reduces the
response time without significant increases in total ripple
current.
Modern microprocessors produce severe transient load rates.
High frequency capacitors supply the initially transient current
and slow the load rate-of-change seen by the bulk capacitors.
The bulk filter capacitor values are generally determined by the
ESR (effective series resistance) and voltage rating
The output inductor of each power channel controls the ripple
current. The control IC is stable for channel ripple current
(peak-to-peak) up to twice the average current. A single
channel’s ripple current is approximately:
requirements rather than actual capacitance requirements.
High frequency decoupling capacitors should be placed as
close to the power pins of the load as physically possible. Be
careful not to add inductance in the circuit board wiring that
could cancel the usefulness of these low inductance
components. Consult with the manufacturer of the load on
specific decoupling requirements.

Small values of output inductance can cause excessive power
dissipation. The ISL6553 is designed for stable operation for
ripple currents up to twice the load current. However, for this
condition, the RMS current is 115% above the value shown in
the following MOSFET Selection and Considerations section.
With all else fixed, decreasing the inductance could increase the
power dissipated in the MOSFETs by 30%.
Bulk capacitor choices include aluminum electrolytic, OS-Con,
Tantalum and even ceramic dielectrics. An aluminum
electrolytic capacitor’s ESR value is related to the case size
with lower ESR available in larger case sizes. However, the

For bulk capacitance, several electrolytic capacitors (Panasonic
HFQ series or Nichicon PL series or Sanyo MV-GX or equivalent)
may be needed. For surface mount designs, solid tantalum
capacitors can be used, but caution must be exercised with
regard to the capacitor surge current rating. These capacitors
must be capable of handling the surge-current at power-up. The
TPS series available from AVX, and the 593D series from

In high-current PWM applications, the MOSFET power
dissipation, package selection and heatsink are the dominant
design factors. The power dissipation includes two loss
components; conduction loss and switching loss. These losses
are distributed between the upper and lower MOSFETs
according to duty factor (see the following equations). The
conduction losses are the main component of power
dissipation for the lower MOSFETs, Q2 and Q4 of Figure 1.
Only the upper MOSFETs, Q1 and Q3 have significant
switching losses, since the lower device turns on and off into
near zero voltage.

Input Capacitor Selection
The important parameters for the bulk input capacitors are
the voltage rating and the RMS current rating. For reliable
operation, select bulk input capacitors with voltage and
current ratings above the maximum input voltage and largest
RMS current required by the circuit. The capacitor voltage
rating should be at least 1.25 times greater than the
maximum input voltage and a voltage rating of 1.5 times is a
conservative guideline. The RMS current required for a multi-
phase converter can be approximated with the aid of Figure
13.
The equations assume linear voltage-current transitions and
do not model power loss due to the reverse-recovery of the
lower MOSFETs body diode. The gate-charge losses are
dissipated by the Driver IC and don’t heat the MOSFETs.
However, large gate-charge increases the switching time, t

which increases the upper MOSFET switching losses. Ensure
that both MOSFETs are within their maximum junction
temperature at high ambient temperature by calculating the
temperature rise according to package thermal-resistance
specifications. A separate heatsink may be necessary
depending upon MOSFET power, package type, ambient
temperature and air flow.

A diode, anode to ground, may be placed across Q2 and Q4 of
Figure 1. These diodes function as a clamp that catches the
negative inductor swing during the dead time between the turn
off of the lower MOSFETs and the turn on of the upper
MOSFETs. The diodes must be a Schottky type to prevent the
lossy parasitic MOSFET body diode from conducting. It is
usually acceptable to omit the diodes and let the body diodes
of the lower MOSFETs clamp the negative inductor swing, but
efficiency could drop one or two percent as a result. The
diode's rated reverse breakdown voltage must be greater than

Use a mix of input bypass capacitors to control the voltage

for the high frequency decoupling and bulk capacitors to
supply the RMS current. Small ceramic capacitors should be
placed very close to the drain of the upper MOSFET to
suppress the voltage induced in the parasitic circuit
