<strong>VRM10.1</strong> XPhase TM /DirectFET TM<br />
<strong>High</strong> <strong>Efficiency</strong> <strong>Demo</strong> <strong>Board</strong><br />
(DB3C)<br />

DESCRIPTION<br />
This VRM10 2U demo board consists of International Rectifier XPhase TM controller set<br />
(IR3081 / IR3087) and the power stage with DirectFET TM (IR6608 / IR6618). XPhase TM control<br />
architecture makes it easy to change the number of synchronous buck converter to meet<br />
different design requirements. The demo board meets the requirements of Intel Voltage<br />
Regulator Module (VRM) 10.1 Design Guideline.<br />

<strong>VRM10.1</strong> XPhase TM /DirectFET TM<br />
<strong>High</strong> <strong>Efficiency</strong> <strong>Demo</strong> <strong>Board</strong><br />
(DB3C)<br />
FEATURES<br />
• XPhase TM architecture – Current configuration is 6 phases on the demo board, but is can be<br />
modified to use for 1- to 5-phase operations.<br />
• Feed forward voltage mode control<br />
• Accurate current sharing through active average current share bus<br />
• Loss-less current sensing using inductor DCR<br />
• Temperature compensation of the inductor DCR change<br />
• Programmable adaptive voltage positioning<br />
• Programmable Dynamic VID slew rate, set at 2.5mV/us<br />
• +/-300mV differential remote voltage sense<br />
• 400kHz constant frequency operation (can be modifed for 150kHz to 1MHz operations)<br />
• Programmable softstart<br />
• Body Braking TM disables synchronous MOSFET for improved transient response and<br />
prevents negative output voltage at converter turn-off<br />
• Body Braking TM can be used to prevents discharge of output capacitors during Dynamic VID<br />
step-down (this feature is disabled by default)<br />
• Programmable hiccup over-current protection with delay to prevent false triggering<br />
• Over voltage protection<br />
• Operates from 12V input with 9.1V Under-Voltage Lockout<br />
• Simplified powergood provides indication of proper operation and avoids false triggering<br />
• Programmable converter over-temperature detection and output<br />
• Adjustable MOSFET drive voltage (8.2V in the demo board)<br />
• Phase fault detection<br />
• Back-bias protection: starts up safely when output voltage is asserted before powering up<br />
• LL0 & LL1 provisions (disabled, pending Intel definition)<br />

As per <strong>VRM10.1</strong> specifications, the nominal output voltage at zero load is offset at 20mV below VDAC,<br />
and the slope of the droop line is set at -0.91mili-ohm.<br />
The offset can be adjusted by changing the value of R5, while the slope can be adjusted by changing the<br />
ratio of R6 and R5.<br />
It is necessary to adjust R5 and R6 if the demo board is modified for different switching frequencies,<br />
number of phases, or type of output inductors.<br />

Startup Sequence<br />
When input voltage goes above 9.1V, SoftStart pin begins to charge up. When SoftStart pin<br />
charges to above 1.3V, the error amplifier output is released, which allows all PWMs to start<br />
switching. PowerGood signal is asserted when SS charges above 3.9V.<br />
