DESCRIPTION
The IR3590B is a 6-phase digital, single loop, multi-
phase buck controller with a feature set optimized to
support redundant power supply systems. The
IR3590B 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 IR3590B 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, and
improves transient response and form factor.
The I2C interface can communicate with up to 127
IR3590B-based VR loops. Device configuration and
fault parameters are easily defined using the IR
PowIRcenter GUI and stored in on-chip MTP. MTP
storage saves pins and enables a small package
size.
The IR3590B extensive fault protection includes
output OV, UV and OC protection, a thermistor
based OT protection input with a VRHOT signal
output, and a selectable and separate Over Current
warning flag through the ALERT#.
APPLICATIONS
 Supports Phase Redundant based Server
systems
 Server CPU
 Server Memory
