MAX16712
General Description
The MAX16712 is a dual-output, fully integrated, highly
efficient, step-down DC-DC switching regulator. The
device operates from 2.7V to 16V input supplies, and
each output can be regulated from 0.5V to 5.8V. The IC
delivers up to 6A of load current per output. The two
outputs can be connected in parallel as a single-output,
dual-phase regulator that supports up to 12A load
current.

• Interleaved 180° Out-of-Phase Operation
• AMS to Improve Load Transient
• Selectable DCM to Improve Light Load Efficiency
• Active Current Balancing for Dual-Phase Operation
The switching frequency of the device can be configured
from 500kHz to 2.0MHz and provides the capability of
optimizing the design in terms of solution size and
performance.
The MAX16712 utilizes fixed-frequency, current-mode
control with internal compensation. The dual-switching
regulators operate 180° out-of-phase. The IC features
an advanced modulation scheme (AMS) and selectable
discontinuous current mode (DCM) operation to provide
improved performance. Operation settings and
configurable features can also be selected by
connecting a pin-strap resistor from PGM0 pin to ground.
The MAX16712 has an internal 1.8V LDO output to
power the gate drives (VCC) and internal circuitry
(AVDD).
The MAX16712 integrates multiple protections including
positive and negative overcurrent protection, output
overvoltage protection and overtemperature protection
to ensure robust design.
The device is available in a compact 2.2mm x 3.5mm
wafer-level package (WLP). It supports -40°C to +125°C
junction temperature operation.

Step-Down Switching Regulator
MAX16712
Detailed Description
Dual-Output or Dual-Phase Operation
The MAX16712, by default, is configured as a dual-output step-down regulator. It supports a single-input supply from
2.7V to 16V and two independent output rails of up to 6A load. The selection of DCM operation applies to both outputs.
The device has two independent control loops for the two outputs and the loop parameters can be selected by predefined
scenarios (see Pin-Strap Programmability).
The device can also be configured as a single-output, dual-phase 12A converter by connecting the SNSP2 pin to AVDD.
When configured to dual-phase operation, only the control loop for OUTPUT1 will work and the control loop for OUTPUT2
is bypassed. EN1 and PGOOD1 are used in dual-phase operation mode to enable the device and indicate power-good
status. EN2 and PGOOD2 can be disconnected.
Control Architecture
Fixed-Frequency Peak Current Mode Control Loop
The MAX16712 control loop is based on fixed-frequency peak current-mode control architecture. A simplified control
architecture is shown in Figure 1. The loop contains an error amplifier stage, internal voltage loop compensation network,
current sense, internal slope compensation, and a PWM modulator that generates the PWM signals to drive high-side
and low-side MOSFETs. The device has a fixed 0.5V reference voltage (VREF). The difference of VREF and the sensed
output voltage is amplified by the first error amplifier. Its output voltage (VERR_) is used as the input of the voltage loop
compensation network. The output of the compensation network (VCOMP_) is fed to a PWM comparator with currentsense signal (VISENSE_) and the slope compensation (VRAMP_). The output of the PWM comparator is the input of the
PWM modulator. The turning on of the high-side MOSFET is aligned with an internal clock. It is a fixed-frequency phase
shifted clock generated by the advanced modulation scheme (AMS) block.

Advanced Modulation Scheme (AMS)
The device offers an advanced modulation scheme (AMS) to provide improved transient response. AMS provides a
significant advantage over conventional fixed-frequency PWM schemes. The AMS feature allows for modulation at both
leading and trailing edges, which result a temporary increase or decrease of the switching frequency during large load
transients. Figure 2 shows the scheme to include leading-edge modulation to the traditional trailing-edge modulation when
AMS is enabled in the device. The modulation scheme allows the turn on and off with minimal delay. Since the total
inductor current increases very quickly, thus satisfying the load demand, the current drawn from output capacitors is
reduced. With AMS enabled, the system closed-loop bandwidth can be extended without phase-margin penalty. As a
result, the output capacitance can be minimized.

Figure 2. AMS Operation
Discontinuous Current Mode (DCM) Operation
Discontinuous current mode (DCM) operation can be enabled to improve light-load efficiency. It is required that VDDH is
at least 2V higher than desired VOUT for the device to operate in DCM. The device has a DCM current-detection
comparator to monitor the inductor valley current while operating in CCM. At light load, if the inductor valley current is
below the DCM comparator threshold for 48 consecutive cycles, the device transition seamlessly to DCM. Once in DCM,
the switching frequency decreases as load decreases. The MAX16712 transitions back to CCM operation as soon as the
inductor valley current is higher than 100mA.
Active Current Balancing
When configured to dual-phase operation, the MAX16712 implements active current balancing for enhanced dynamiccurrent sharing or balancing between two phase currents. This feature maintains current balance during load transients,
even at a load-step frequency close to switching frequency or its harmonics. In the device, the active current balancing
circuit adjusts the individual phase-current control signal in order to minimize the phase-current imbalance.
Internal Linear Regulator
The MAX16712 contains an internal 1.8V linear regulator (LDO). The 1.8V LDO output voltage on VCC is derived from
VDDH1 pin. The 1.8V voltage on the VCC pin supplies the current to the MOSFET drivers of both outputs. A decoupling
capacitor of at least 2.2μF must be connected between VCC and PGND. The AVDD pin of the MAX16712 also requires
a 1.8V supply to power the device’s internal analog circuitry. A 2.2Ω to 4.7Ω resistor must be connected between AVDD
and VCC. A 1μF or greater decoupling capacitor must be used between AVDD and AGND.
Startup and Shutdown
The startup and shutdown timing is shown in Figure 3. When the AVDD pin voltage is above its rising UVLO threshold,
the device goes through an initialization procedure. The dual-output or dual-phase operation is detected. Configuration
settings on the PGM_ pins are read. Once initialization is complete, the device detects VDDH UVLO and EN_ status.
When both are above their rising thresholds, the soft-start begins and switching is enabled. The output voltage of the
enabled output starts to ramp up. The soft-start ramp time is 3ms. If there are no faults, the open-drain PGOOD_ pin is
released from being held low after the soft-start ramp is complete. The device supports smooth startup with the output
pre-biased.
During operation, if either VDDH UVLO or EN_ falls below its threshold, switching is stopped immediately. The PGOOD_
pin is driven low. The output voltage is discharged by load current.

Fault Handling
Input Undervoltage and Overvoltage Lockout (VDDH UVLO, VDDH OVLO)
The MAX16712 internally monitors the VDDH voltage level. When the input supply voltage is below the UVLO threshold
or above the OVLO threshold, the device stops switching and drives the PGOOD_ pin low. The device restarts after 20ms
if the VDDH UVLO or OVLO status is cleared. See Startup and Shutdown for the startup sequence.
Output Overvoltage Protection (OVP)
The feedback voltage on SNSP_ is monitored for output overvoltage once the soft-start ramp is complete. If the feedback
voltage is above the OVP threshold beyond the OVP deglitch filtering delay, the device stops switching and drives the
PGOOD_ pin low. The OVP is a hiccup protection, and the device restarts after 20ms if the OVP status is cleared. When
configured to dual-output operation, the OVP of one output does not affect the operation of the other output.
Positive Overcurrent Protection (POCP)
The device’s peak current mode control architecture provides inherent current limiting and short-circuit protection. The
inductor current is continuously monitored while switching. The inductor peak current is limited on a cycle-by-cycle basis.
In each switching cycle, once the sensed inductor current exceeds the POCP threshold, the device turns off the high-side
MOSFET and turns on the low-side MOSFET to allow the inductor current to be discharged by output voltage. An updown counter is used to accumulate the number of consecutive POCP events each switching cycle. If the counter exceeds
1024, the device stops switching and drives the PGOOD_ pin low. The POCP is a hiccup protection, and the device
restarts after 20ms. When configured to dual-output operation, the POCP of one output does not affect the operation of
the other output.
The MAX16712 offers three POCP thresholds (9A, 6A, and 4.5A) for each output, which can be selected by the PGM1
and PGM2 pins (see Pin-Strap Programmability). Due to POCP deglitch delay, for a specific application use case, the
actual POCP threshold should be higher (see Output Inductor Selection).

MAX16712
Negative Overcurrent Protection (NOCP)
The device also has negative overcurrent protection against inductor valley current. The NOCP threshold is -83% of the
POCP threshold. In each switching cycle, once the sensed inductor current exceeds the NOCP threshold, the device
turns off the low-side MOSFET and turns on the high-side MOSFET for a fixed 100ns time to allow the inductor current
to be charged by input voltage. Same as POCP, an up-down counter is used to accumulate the number of consecutive
NOCP events. If the counter exceeds 1024, the device stops switching and drives PGOOD_ pin low. The device restarts
after 20ms. When configured to dual-output operation, NOCP of one output does not affect the operation of the other
output.
Overtemperature Protection (OTP)
The overtemperature protection threshold is +155°C with 20°C hysteresis. If the junction temperature reaches the OTP
threshold during operation, the device stops switching and drives the PGOOD_ pin low. The device restarts if the OTP
status is cleared.
Pin-Strap Programmability
The MAX16712 has three program pins (PGM0, PGM1, and PGM2) to set some of the key configurations of the device.
The PGM values are read during startup initialization. PGM0 has 32 detection levels. A pin-strap resistor is connected
from PGM0 pin to AGND to select one of the 32 PGM0 codes. PGM0 is used to select the switching frequency and a
predefined scenario, which is defined in Table 4. PGM1 and PGM2 each have three levels. PGM1 or PGM2 can be
connected to AVDD or AGND (PGM0) or left OPEN to select the POCP level of each output. When the device is configured
to dual-phase operation, the POCP level of each phase is only selected by PGM1. PGM2 code is ignored in the IC.

The MAX16712 has five predefined scenarios for each selectable switching frequency, where the control loop is optimized
to cover the most commonly used applications, which are summarized in Table 4. See Voltage Loop Gain for information
about how to select the voltage loop gain resistance (RVGA) for optimized control loop performance. The scenario is
selected by a pin-strap resistor connected from the PGM0 pin to AGND.

Reference Design Procedure
Output Voltage Sensing
The MAX16712 has an internal 0.5V reference voltage. When the desired output voltage is higher than 0.5V, it is required
to use resistor-dividers RFB1 and RFB2 to sense the output voltage (see Typical Application Circuits). It is recommended
that the value of RFB2 does not exceed 5kΩ. The resistor-divider ratio is given by the following equation:
VOUT = VREF × (1+
RFB1
)
RFB2
where:
VOUT = Output voltage
VREF = 0.5V fixed reference voltage
RFB1 = Top resistor-divider
RFB2 = Bottom resistor-divider

MAX16712
Switching Frequency Selection
The MAX16712 offers a wide range of selectable switching frequencies from 500kHz to 2MHz. Switching frequency
selection can be optimized for different applications. Higher switching frequencies are recommended for applications
prioritizing solution size, so that the value and size of output LC filter can be reduced. Lower switching frequencies are
recommended for applications prioritizing efficiency and thermal dissipation, due to reduced switching losses. The
frequency must be selected so that the minimum controllable on-time and minimum controllable off-time are not violated.
The maximum recommended switching frequency is calculated by the following equation:
VOUT
VDDHMIN - VOUT
fSWMAX = MIN {
,
}
tONMIN × VDDHMAX tOFFMIN × VDDHMIN
where:
fSWMAX = Maximum selectable switching frequency
VDDHMAX = Maximum input voltage
VDDHMIN = Minimum input voltage
tONMIN = Minimum controllable on-time
tOFFMIN = Minimum controllable off-time
The MAX16712 internally has a slope compensation applied to the current loop during on-time to guarantee stability and
improve noise immunity. To avoid the slope compensation saturating the current loop, it is required that the maximum ontime be limited by:
I
I
1.6Ω
5pF [800mV- ( OUTMAX + RIPPLE ) ×
]
N
2
25
tONMAX =
3.7uA
where:
tONMAX = Maximum on-time of the high-side MOSFET
IOUTMAX = Maximum load current
N = Number of phases
IRIPPLE = Inductor current ripple peak-to-peak value
The minimum recommended switching frequency is calculated by the following equation:
fSWMIN =
VOUT
tONMAX ×VDDHMIN
where:
fSWMIN = Minimum selectable switching frequency
Due to system noise injection, even at steady-state operation, typically the LX rising and falling edges would have some
random jittering noise. The selection of the switching frequency (fSW) should take into consideration the jittering, be higher
than fSWMIN, and be lower than fSWMAX. To improve the LX jittering, it is recommended to use smaller inductor values
and lower voltage loop gain to minimize the noise sensitivity.
Output Inductor Selection
The output inductor has an important influence on the overall size, cost, and efficiency of the voltage regulator. Since the
inductor is typically one of the larger components in the system, a minimum inductor value is particularly important in
space-constrained applications. Smaller inductor values also permit faster transient response, reducing the amount of
output capacitance needed to maintain transient tolerance.
To improve current loop noise immunity, typically the output inductor is selected so that the inductor current ripple is at
least 1A. The inductor value is calculated by the following equation:
L=

where:
VDDH = Input voltage
The inductor should also be selected so that maximum load current delivery can be guaranteed by the selected POCP
threshold. The MAX16712 offers three POCP thresholds (9A, 6A, and 4.5A) for each output, which can be selected by
the PGM1 and PGM2 pins (see Pin-Strap Programmability). Due to deglitch delay from the POCP comparator tripping to
the high-side MOSFET turning off, for a specific application use case, the adjusted POCP threshold should take into
consideration the inductor value, input voltage, and output voltage, which can be calculated by the following equation:
POCPADJUST = POCP +
(VDDH - VOUT ) × tPOCP
L
where:
POCPADJUST = Adjusted POCP threshold
POCP = POCP level specified in the EC table
tPOCP = POCP deglitch delay (36ns, typ)
It needs to be verified that the peak inductor current in normal operation does not exceed the minimum adjusted POCP
threshold:

where:
POCPADJUST(MIN) = Minimum adjusted POCP threshold, calculated with the minimum value of the POCP threshold

Output Capacitor Selection
One major factor in determining the total required output capacitance is the output-voltage ripple. To meet the outputvoltage ripple requirement, the minimum output capacitance should satisfy the following equation:
COUT ≥
IRIPPLE
8 × N × fSW × (VOUTRIPPLE - ESR × IRIPPLE )
where:
VOUTRIPPLE = Maximum allowed output-voltage ripple
ESR = ESR of output capacitors
The other important factors in determining the total required output capacitance are the maximum allowable output-voltage
overshoot and undershoot during load transients. For a given loading or unloading current step, the minimum required
output capacitance should also satisfy the following equation:

Input Capacitor Selection
The selection of input capacitance is determined by the requirement of input-voltage ripple. The VDDH1 and VDDH2 pins
of the MAX16712 should be connected on the PCB. When configured to dual-output operation, the input capacitance is
shared between the two outputs. The minimum required input capacitance is estimated by the following equation:
CIN ≥ MAX {
IOUT1(MAX) × VOUT1 IOUT2(MAX) × VOUT2
,
}
fSW1 × VDDH × VINPP fSW2 × VDDH × VINPP
where:
IOUT_(MAX) = Maximum output current of OUTPUT_
VOUT_ = Output voltage of OUTPUT_
fSW_ = Switching frequency of OUTPUT_
VINPP = Peak-to-peak input voltage ripple
When configured to dual-phase operation, the minimum required input capacitance is estimated by the following equation:
CIN ≥
IOUT(MAX) × VOUT
2 × fSW × VDDH × VINPP
Besides the minimum required input capacitance, it is required to also place 0.1μF and 1μF high-frequency decoupling
capacitors next to each VDDH_ pin to suppress the high-frequency switching noises.
Voltage Loop Gain
For stability purposes, it is recommended that the voltage loop bandwidth (BW) be lower than 1/5 of the switching
frequency. Consider the case of using MLCC output capacitors that have nearly ideal impedance characteristics in the
frequency range of interest with negligible ESR and ESL. The voltage loop BW can be estimated with the following
equation:

PCB Layout Guidelines
• For electrical and thermal reasons, the second layer from the top and bottom of the PCB should be reserved for power
ground (PGND) planes.
•
The input decoupling capacitor should be located the closest to the IC and no more than 40mils from the VDDH_ pins.
•
The VCC decoupling capacitors should be connected to PGND and placed as close as possible to VCC pin.
• An analog ground copper polygon or island should be used to connect all analog control-signal grounds. This “quiet”
analog ground copper polygon or island should be connected to the PGND through a single connection close to AGND
pin. The analog ground can be used as a shield and ground reference for the control signals (PGM_ and SNSP_).
•
The AVDD decoupling capacitors should be connected to AGND and placed as close as possible to AVDD pin.
• The boost capacitors should be placed as close as possible to LX_ and BST_ pins, on the same side of the PCB with
the IC.
• The feedback resistor-divider and optional external compensation network should be placed close to the IC to minimize
the noise injection.
• The voltage-sense line should be routed directly from an output capacitor, shielded by ground plane, and kept away
from the switching node and inductor.
•
Multiple vias are recommended for all paths that carry high currents and for heat dissipation.
• The input capacitors and output inductors should be placed near the IC and the traces to the components should be
kept as short and wide as possible to minimize parasitic inductance and resistance.
