DESCRIPTION
The IR3563A is a single-loop digital multi-phase
buck controller that controls up to 8 phases. The
IR3563A is fully Intel® VR12 compliant.
The IR3563A includes IR’s Efficiency Shaping
Technology to deliver exceptional efficiency at
minimum cost across the entire load range. IR
Variable Gate Drive optimizes the MOSFET gate
drive voltage based on real-time load current. IR’s
Dynamic Phase Control adds/drops phases based
upon load current. The IR3563A can be configured
to enter 1-phase operation and active diode
emulation mode automatically or by command.
IR’s unique Adaptive Transient Algorithm (ATA),
based on proprietary non-linear digital PWM
algorithms, minimizes output bulk capacitors.
The I2C/PMBus interface can communicate with up
to 16 IR3563A-based VR loops. Device
configuration and fault parameters are easily defined
using the IR Digital Power Design Center (DPDC)
GUI and stored in on-chip MTP. MTP storage saves
pins and enables a small package size.
The IR3563A provides extensive OVP, UVP, OCP
and OTP fault protection and includes thermistor
based temperature sensing with VRHOT signal.
The IR3563A also includes numerous features like
register diagnostics for fast design cycles and
platform differentiation, simplifying VRD design and
enabling fastest time-to-market with its “set-and-
forget” methodology.
