DESCRIPTION
The IR3558 integrated PowIRstage® is a synchronous buck
gate driver co-packed with a control MOSFET and a
synchronous MOSFET with integrated Schottky diode. It is
optimized internally for PCB layout, heat transfer and
driver/MOSFET timing. Custom designed gate driver and
MOSFET combination enables higher efficiency at lower
output voltages required by cutting edge CPU, GPU and
DDR memory designs.
Up to 1.0MHz switching frequency enables fast transient
response, allowing miniaturization of output inductors as
well as input and output capacitors while maintaining high
efficiency. The IR3558’s superior efficiency enables
smallest size and lower solution cost. The IR3558 PCB
footprint is compatible with most pins of the IR3551 (50A).
The IR3558 provides two selectable PWM logic modes, the
3.3V tri-state PWM logic or International Rectifier’s Active
Tri-Level^TM (ATL) PWM logic. The ATL PWM logic eliminates
a dedicated Body-Braking® pin and improves the transient
response of the converter during load release.
The IR3558 provides a thermal flag output with
programmable threshold from 70°C to 150°C, which makes
it possible to adjust the thermal protection threshold
based on the PCB layout and thermal distribution.
The IR3558 is optimized specifically for CPU core power
delivery in server applications. The ability to meet the
stringent requirements of the server market also makes
the IR3558 ideally suited to powering GPU and DDR
memory designs and other high current applications.
