24 / 33 page 24 FN6448.0 March 5, 2007 pin voltage exceeds the VOCP voltage of 2.0V, the overcurrent protection circuitry activates. Since the IOUT pin voltage is proportional to the output current, the overcurrent trip level, IOCP, can be set by selecting the proper value for RIOUT, as shown in Equation 24. Once the output current exceeds the overcurrent trip level, VIOUT will exceed VOCP and a comparator will trigger the converter to begin overcurrent protection procedures. At the beginning of an overcurrent shutdown, the controller turns off both upper and lower MOSFETs and lowers PGOOD. The controller will then immediately attempt to soft- start. If the overcurrent fault remains, the trip-retry cycles will continue until either the controller is disabled or the fault is cleared. If five overcurrent events occur without successfully completing soft-start, the controller will latch off after the fifth try and must be reset by toggling EN before a soft-start can be reinitiated. Note that the energy delivered during trip-retry cycling is much less than during full-load operation, so there is no thermal hazard. Individual Channel Overcurrent Limiting The ISL6313 has the ability to limit the current in each individual channel without shutting down the entire regulator. This is accomplished by continuously comparing the sensed currents of each channel with a constant 140µA OCL reference current as shown in Figure 16. If a channel’s individual sensed current exceeds this OCL limit, the UGATE signal of that channel is immediately forced low, and the LGATE signal is forced high. This turns off the upper MOSFET(s), turns on the lower MOSFET(s), and stops the rise of current in that channel, forcing the current in the channel to decrease. That channel’s UGATE signal will not be able to return high until the sensed channel current falls back below the 140µA reference. During VID-on-the-fly transitions the OCL trip level is boosted to prevent false overcurrent limiting events that can occur. Starting from the beginning of a dynamic VID transition, the overcurrent trip level is boosted to 196µA. The OCL level will stay at this boosted level until 50 μs after the end of the dynamic VID transition, at which point it will return to the typical 140µA trip level. General Design Guide This design guide is intended to provide a high-level explanation of the steps necessary to create a multi-phase power converter. It is assumed that the reader is familiar with many of the basic skills and techniques referenced below. In addition to this guide, Intersil provides complete reference designs that include schematics, bills of materials, and example board layouts for all common microprocessor applications. Power Stages The first step in designing a multi-phase converter is to determine the number of phases. This determination depends heavily on the cost analysis which in turn depends on system constraints that differ from one design to the next. Principally, the designer will be concerned with whether components can be mounted on both sides of the circuit board, whether through-hole components are permitted, the total board space available for power-supply circuitry, and the maximum amount of load current. Generally speaking, the most economical solutions are those in which each phase handles between 25A and 30A. All surface-mount designs will tend toward the lower end of this current range. If through-hole MOSFETs and inductors can be used, higher per-phase currents are possible. In cases where board space is the limiting constraint, current can be pushed as high as 40A per phase, but these designs require heat sinks and forced air to cool the MOSFETs, inductors and heat- dissipating surfaces. MOSFETS The choice of MOSFETs depends on the current each MOSFET will be required to conduct, the switching frequency, the capability of the MOSFETs to dissipate heat, and the availability and nature of heat sinking and air flow. LOWER MOSFET POWER CALCULATION The calculation for power loss in the lower MOSFET is simple, since virtually all of the loss in the lower MOSFET is due to current conducted through the channel resistance (rDS(ON)). In Equation 25, IM is the maximum continuous output current, IPP is the peak-to-peak inductor current (see Equation 1), and d is the duty cycle (VOUT/VIN). An additional term can be added to the lower-MOSFET loss equation to account for additional loss accrued during the dead time when inductor current is flowing through the lower- I OCP 6R SET N ⋅⋅ DCR R IOUT 400 ⋅⋅ --------------------------------------------------- = (EQ. 24) 0A 0V OUTPUT CURRENT, 50A/DIV FIGURE 17.
