ISL6323 Hybrid SVI/PVI Monolithic Dual PWM Hybrid Controller Powering AMD SVI Split-Plane and VI Uniplane Processors


Posted on Feb 4, 2014

The ISL6323 dual PWM controller delivers high efficiency and tight regulation from two synchronous buck DC/DC converters. The ISL6323 supports hybrid power control of AMD processors which operate from either a 6-bit parallel VID interface (PVI) or a serial VID interface (SVI). The dual output ISL6323 features a multiphase controller to support uni

plane VDD core voltage and a single phase controller to power the Northbridge (VDDNB) in SVI mode. Only the multiphase controller is active in PVI mode to support uniplane VDD only processors. A precision uniplane core voltage regulation system is provided by a 2- to 4-phase PWM voltage regulator (VR) controller. The integration of two power MOSFET drivers, adding flexibility in layout, reduce the number of external components in the multiphase section. A single phase PWM controller with integrated driver provides a second precision voltage regulation system for the North Bridge portion of the processor. This monolithic, dual controller with integrated driver solution provides a cost and space saving power management solution. For applications which benefit from load line programming to reduce bulk output capacitors, the ISL6323 features output voltage droop. The multiphase portion also includes advanced control loop features for optimal transient response to load application and removal. One of these features is highly accurate, fully differential, continuous DCR current sensing for load line programming and channel current balance. Dual edge modulation is another unique feature, allowing for quicker initial response to high di/dt load transients.
