NOTES:
3. These parts are designed and adjusted for accuracy with all errors in the voltage loop included.
4. Spec guaranteed by design.
5. During soft-start, VDAC rises from 0 to 1.1V first and then ramp to VID voltage after receiving valid VID
6. Soft-start ramp rate is determined by the adjustable soft-start oscillator frequency at the speed of 6.25mV per cycle.
Functional Pin Description
VCC - Supplies the power necessary to operate the chip. The
controller starts to operate when the voltage on this pin
exceeds the rising POR threshold and shuts down when the
voltage on this pin drops below the falling POR threshold.
Connect this pin directly to a +5V supply.
GND - Bias and reference ground for the IC. The bottom
metal base of ISL6316 is the GND.
EN_PWR - This pin is a threshold-sensitive enable input for
the controller. Connecting the 12V supply to EN_PWR
through an appropriate resistor divider provides a means to
synchronize power-up of the controller and the MOSFET
driver ICs. When EN_PWR is driven above 0.875V, the
ISL6316 is active depending on status of EN_VTT, the internal
POR, and pending fault states. Driving EN_PWR below
0.745V will clear all fault states and prime the ISL6316 to
soft-start when re-enabled.
EN_VTT - This pin is another threshold-sensitive enable input
for the controller. It’s typically connected to VTT output of VTT
voltage regulator in the computer mother board. When
EN_VTT is driven above 0.875V, the ISL6316 is active
depending on status of ENLL, the internal POR, and pending
fault states. Driving EN_VTT below 0.745V will clear all fault
states and prime the ISL6316 to soft-start when re-enabled.
FS - Use this pin to set up the desired switching frequency. A
resistor, placed from FS to ground will set the switching
frequency. The relationship between the value of the resistor
and the switching frequency will be described by approximate
equations.
SS - Use this pin to set up the desired start-up oscillator fre-
quency. A resistor, placed from SS to ground will set up the
soft-start ramp rate.The relationship between the value of the
resistor and the soft-start ramp up time will be described by
approximate equation.
VID5, VID4, VID3, VID2, VID1 and VID0 - These are the
inputs to the internal DAC that generates the reference
voltage for output regulation. Connect these pins either to
open-drain outputs with or without external pull-up resistors or
to active-pull-up outputs. All VID pins have 40µA internal pull-
up current sources that diminish to zero as the voltage rises
above the logic-high level. These inputs can be pulled up
externally as high as VCC plus 0.3V.
VDIFF, VSEN, and RGND - VSEN and RGND form the
precision differential remote-sense amplifier. This amplifier
converts the differential voltage of the remote output to a
single-ended voltage referenced to local ground. VDIFF is the
amplifier’s output and the input to the regulation and
protection circuitry. Connect VSEN and RGND to the sense
pins of the remote load.
FB and COMP - Inverting input and output of the error
amplifier respectively. FB can be connected to VDIFF through
a resistor. A properly chosen resistor between VDIFF and FB
can set the load line (droop), when IDROOP pin is tied to FB
pin. The droop scale factor is set by the ratio of the ISEN
resistors and the inductor DCR or the lower MOSFET
RDS(ON). COMP is tied back to FB through an external R-C
network to compensate the regulator.
DAC and REF - The DAC pin is the output of the precision
internal DAC reference. The REF pin is the positive input of
the Error Amp. In typical applications, a 1kΩ, 1% resistor is
used between DAC and REF to generate a precision offset
voltage. This voltage is proportional to the offset current
determined by the offset resistor from OFS to ground or VCC.
A capacitor is used between REF and ground to smooth the
voltage transition during Dynamic VID™ operations.
PWM1, PWM2, PWM3, PWM4 - Pulse width modulation
outputs. Connect these pins to the PWM input pins of the
Intersil driver IC. The number of active channels is determined
