The MAX17033/MAX17034/MAX17434 are 2-/1-phase-interleaved Quick-PWM™ step-down VID power-supply controllers for notebook CPUs. True out-of-phase operation reduces input ripple current requirements and output voltage ripple, while easing component selection and layout difficulties. The Quick-PWM control provides instantaneous response to fast load-current steps. Active voltage positioning reduces power dissipation and bulk output capacitance requirements and allows ideal positioning compensation for tantalum, polymer, or ceramic bulk output capacitors.

A slew-rate controller allows controlled transitions between VID codes, controlled soft-start and shutdown, and controlled exit from suspend. A thermistor-based temperature sensor provides a programmable thermal-fault output (VRHOT). A current monitor output (IMON) provides an analog current output (MAX17034/ MAX17434 only) proportional to the power consumed by the CPU. Output undervoltage, overvoltage (MAX17033/MAX17034 only), and thermal protection shut the controller down when any of these faults are detected,. A voltage regulator power-OK (PWRGD) output indicates the output is in regulation. Additionally, the MAX17033/MAX17034 only feature true differential current sense and a phase-good (PHASEGD) output that indicates a phase imbalance fault condition.

The MAX17033 supports the IMVP-6+ specification while the MAX17034/MAX17434 support the IMVP-6.5 requirements. The MAX17033/MAX17034/MAX17434 are available in a lead-free 5mm x 5mm, 40-pin TQFN package

Product Details

The MAX17082 evaluation kit (EV kit) demonstrates the high-power, dynamically adjustable, multiphase IMVP-6.5 notebook CPU application circuit. This DC-DC converter steps down high-voltage batteries and/or AC adapters, generating a precision, low-voltage CPU core VCC rail. The MAX17082 EV kit meets the Intel mobile IMVP-6.5 CPU's transient voltage specification, power-good signaling, voltage regulator thermal monitoring (active-low VRHOT), and power-good output (PWRGD). The MAX17082 kit consists of the MAX17082 2-phase interleaved Quick-PWM™ step-down controller. The MAX17082 kit includes active voltage positioning with adjustable gain, reducing power dissipation and bulk output capacitance requirements. A slew-rate controller allows controlled transitions between VID codes, controlled soft-start and shutdown, and controlled exit suspend voltage. Precision slew-rate control provides "just-in-time" arrival at the new DAC setting, minimizing surge currents to and from the battery.

Two dedicated system inputs (active-low PSI and DPRSLPVR) dynamically select the operating mode and number of active phases, optimizing the overall efficiency during the CPU's active and sleep states.

The MAX17082 includes latched output undervoltage-fault protection, overvoltage-fault protection, and thermal-overload protection. It also includes a voltage regulator power-good (PWRGD) output, a clock enable (active-low CLKEN) output, a current monitor (IMON) output, and a phase-good (PHASEGD) output.

This fully assembled and tested circuit board provides a digitally adjustable 0 to 1.5000V output voltage (7-bit on-board DAC) from a 7V to 24V battery input range. Each phase delivers up to 19A output current for a total of 38A. The EV kit operates at 300kHz switching frequency (per phase) and has superior line- and load-transient response.

The MAX17082 EV kit can also be used to evaluate the MAX17021, MAX17033, and MAX17034.
