DESCRIPTION
The IR3590 is a 6-phase digital, single loop, multi-
phase buck controller with a feature set optimized to
support redundant power supply systems. The
IR3590 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
IR3590 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
IR3590-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 IR3590 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#
