DESCRIPTION
The IR3579 exposed-top integrated PowIRstage®
contains a synchronous buck gate driver IC which is co-
packed with control and synchronous MOSFETs and a
Schottky diode to further improve efficiency. The
package is optimized for PCB layout, heat transfer,
driver/MOSFET control timing, and minimal switch node
ringing when layout guidelines are followed. The paired
gate driver and MOSFET combination enables higher
efficiency at lower output voltages required by cutting
edge CPU, GPU, ASIC and DDR memory designs.
The IR3579 PowIRstage® internal MOSFET current
sense algorithm with integrated temperature
compensation achieves superior current sense
accuracy vs. best-in-class controller based inductor
DCR sense methods. Other features include
preliminary overvoltage protection and flag, internal
cycle-by-cycle self-preservation over current protection
and flag, phase fault flag, over temperature protection
and flag, and internal package temperature reporting.
Up to 1.0MHz switching frequency enables high
performance transient response, allowing
miniaturization of output inductors, as well as input and
output capacitors while maintaining industry leading
efficiency.
When combined with IR’s digital controllers, the IR3579
incorporates the Body-Braking™ feature through PWM
tri-state which enables reduction of output capacitors.
Synchronous diode-emulation mode is also supported
through a built-in ZCD_EN# enabled zero-cross detect
circuit in the IR3579 which increases system light-load
efficiency.
The IR3579 is optimized for CPU core power delivery in
server applications. The ability to meet the stringent
requirements of the server market also makes the
IR3579 ideally suited for powering GPU, ASIC, DDR
memory, and other high current designs.
