RT3606BC
Dual Channel PWM Controller with Integrated Driver for IMVP8
CPU Core Power Supply
General Description
Features
The RT3606BC is an IMVP8 compliant CPU power
controller which includes two voltage rails : a 3/2/1 phase
synchronous Buck controller, the CORE VR and a 2/1
phase synchronous Buck controller, the AXG VR. The
RT3606BC adopts G-NAVP^TM (Green Native AVP) which
is Richtek's proprietary topology derived from finite DC
gain of EA amplifier with current mode control, making it
easy to set the droop to meet all Intel CPU requirements
of AVP (Adaptive Voltage Positioning). Based on the G-
NAVP^TM topology, the RT3606BC also features a quick
response mechanism for optimized AVP performance
during load transient. The RT3606BC supports mode
transition function with various operating states. A serial
VID (SVID) interface is built in the RT3606BC to
communicate with Intel IMVP8 compliant CPU. The
RT3606BC supports VID on-the-fly function with three
different slew rates : Fast, Slow and Decay. By utilizing
the G-NAVP^TM topology, the operating frequency of the
RT3606BC varies with VID, load and input voltage to further
enhance the efficiency even in CCM. Moreover, the G-
NAVP^TM with CCRCOT (Constant Current Ripple COT)
technology provides superior output voltage ripple over
the entire input/output range. The built-in high accuracy
DAC converts the SVID code ranging from 0.25V to 1.52V
with 5mV per step. The RT3606BC integrates a high
accuracy ADC for platform setting functions, such as quick
response trigger level or over-current level. Besides, the
setting function also supports this two rails address
exchange. The RT3606BC provides VR ready output
signals. It also features complete fault protection functions
including over-voltage (OV), negative voltage (NV), over-
current (OC) and under-voltage lockout (UVLO). The
RT3606BC is available in the WQFN-60L 7x7 small foot
print package.
