The LP8752x-Q1 device supports load-current
measurement without the addition of external currentsense resistors. The device also supports
programmable start-up and shutdown delays and
sequences synchronized to enable signals. The
sequences can include GPIO signals to control
external regulators, load switches, and processor
reset. During start-up and voltage change, the device
controls the output slew rate to minimize outputvoltage overshoot and in-rush current.
LP87521-Q1
Simplified Schematic
VIN
The automatic pulse-width-modulation (PWM) to
pulsed-frequency-modulation (PFM) operation (AUTO
mode), together with the automatic phase adding and
phase shedding, maximizes efficiency over a wide
output-current range. The LP8752x-Q1 supports
remote differential-voltage sensing for multiphase
outputs to compensate IR drop between the regulator
output and the point-of-load (POL) improving the
accuracy of the output voltage. The switching clock
can be forced to PWM mode and also synchronized
to an external clock to minimize the disturbances.

The maximum output current can be limited by the forward current limit ILIM FWD and by the junction temperature. The power dissipation
inside the die depends on the length of the current pulse and efficiency and the junction temperature may increase to thermal shutdown
level if the board and ambient temperatures are high.

Output capacitance, forward and negative current limits and load current may limit the maximum and minimum slew rates. The actual
set fixed slew rate value for specific part number is listed in corresponding TRM document.
The final PFM-to-PWM and PWM-to-PFM switchover current varies slightly and is dependent on the output voltage, input voltage, and
the inductor current level.

The following parameters can be programmed via registers:
• Output voltage
• Forced-PWM operation
• Forced multiphase operation for multiphase outputs (forces also the PWM operation)
• Enable and disable delays for regulators and GPIOs controlled by ENx pins
There are two modes of operation for the converter, depending on the output current required: pulse-width
modulation (PWM) and pulse-frequency modulation (PFM). The converter operates in PWM mode at high load
currents of approximately 600 mA or higher. When operating in PWM mode the phases of a multiphase regulator
are automatically added/shedded based on the load current level. Lighter output current loads cause the
converter to automatically switch into PFM mode for decreased current consumption when forced-PWM mode is
disabled. The forced multiphase mode can be enabled for highest transient performance.
A multiphase synchronous buck converter offers several advantages over one power stage converter. For
application processor power delivery, lower ripple on the input and output currents and faster transient response
to load steps are the most significant advantages. Also, because the load current is evenly shared among
multiple channels in multiphase output configuration, the heat generated is greatly decreased for each channel
due to the fact that power loss is proportional to square of current. The physical size of the output inductor
shrinks significantly due to this heat reduction. Figure 9 shows a block diagram of a single core.
Interleaving switching action of the multiphase converters is shown in Figure 10.

8.3.1.2 Multiphase Operation, Phase Adding, and Phase-Shedding
Under heavy load conditions, the 4-phase converter switches each channel 90° apart. As a result, the 4-phase
converter has an effective ripple frequency four times greater than the switching frequency of any one phase. In
the same way 3-phase converter has an effective ripple frequency three times greater and 2-phase converter has
an effective ripple frequency two times greater than the switching frequency of any one phase. However, the
parallel operation decreases the efficiency at light load conditions. In order to overcome this operational
inefficiency, the LP8752x-Q1 can change the number of active phases to optimize efficiency for the variations of
the load. This is called phase adding/shedding. The concept is shown in Figure 11.
The converter can be forced to multiphase operation by the BUCKx_FPWM_MP bit in BUCKx_CTRL1 register. If
the regulator operates in forced multiphase mode (two phases in the dual-phase configuration, three phases in
three-phase configuration and four phases in a four-phase configuration) the forced-PWM operation is
automatically used. If the multiphase operation is not forced, the number of phases are added and shedded
automatically to follow the required output current.

8.3.1.3 Transition Between PWM and PFM Modes
Normal PWM mode operation with phase-adding/shedding optimizes efficiency at mid-to-full load at the expense
of light-load efficiency. The LP8752x-Q1 converter operates in PWM mode at load current of about 600 mA or
higher. At lighter load-current levels the device automatically switches into PFM mode for decreased current
consumption when forced-PWM mode is disabled (AUTO-mode operation). By combining the PFM and the PWM
modes a high efficiency is achieved over a wide output-load-current range.
8.3.1.4 Multiphase Switcher Configurations
In single 4-phase output configuration the BUCK0 is master for the BUCK0, BUCK1, BUCK2, BUCK3 output, in
3-phase and single-phase outputs configuration the BUCK0 is master for the multiphase output BUCK0, BUCK1,
BUCK2, in 2-phase and two single-phase outputs configuration the BUCK0 is master for the BUCK0, BUCK1
output and in two 2-phase outputs configuration the BUCK0 is master for BUCK0, BUCK1 output, and the
BUCK2 is master for BUCK2, BUCK3 output.
In the multiphase configuration the control of the multiphase regulator settings is done using the control registers
of the master buck. The following slave registers are ignored:
• BUCKx_CTRL1 register, except EN_RDISx bit
• BUCKx_VOUT register
• BUCKx_FLOOR_VOUT register
• BUCKx_DELAY register
• interrupt bits related to the slave buck, except BUCKx_ILIM_INT
8.3.1.5 Buck Converter Load-Current Measurement
Buck load current can be monitored via I2C registers. The monitored buck converter is selected with the
LOAD_CURRENT_BUCK_SELECT[1:0] bits in SEL_I_LOAD register. A write to this selection register starts a
current measurement sequence. The regulator is forced to PWM mode during the measurement. The
measurement sequence is 50 µs long, maximum. The LP8752x-Q1 device can be configured to give out an
interrupt (I_LOAD_READY bit in INT_TOP1 register) after the load current measurement sequence is finished.

Load current measurement interrupt can be masked with I_LOAD_READY_MASK bit (TOP_MASK1 register).
The measurement result can be read from registers I_LOAD_1 and I_LOAD_2. Register I_LOAD_1 bits
BUCK_LOAD_CURRENT[7:0] give out the LSB bits and register I_LOAD_2 bits BUCK_LOAD_CURRENT[9:8]
the MSB bits. The measurement result BUCK_LOAD_CURRENT[9:0] LSB is 20 mA, and maximum value of the
measurement corresponds to 20.46 A. If the selected buck regulator is a master phase, the measured current is
the total value of the master and slave phases. If the selected buck regulator is single-phase or slave phase, the
measured current is the output current of the selected phase.
8.3.1.6 Spread-Spectrum Mode
Radiated Energy
Power Spectrum is
Spread and Lowered
Systems with periodic switching signals may generate a large amount of switching noise in a set of narrowband
frequencies (the switching frequency and its harmonics). The usual solution to decrease noise coupling is to add
EMI filters and shields to the boards. The LP8752x-Q1 device has register-selectable spread-spectrum mode
which minimizes the need for output filters, ferrite beads, or chokes. In spread-spectrum mode, the switching
frequency varies around the center frequency, reducing the EMI emissions radiated by the converter and
associated passive components and PCB traces (see Figure 12). This feature is available only when internal RC
oscillator is used (PLL_MODE[1:0] = 00 in PLL_CTRL register), and it is enabled with the EN_SPREAD_SPEC
bit (PIN_FUNCTION register), and it affects all the buck cores.
Frequency
Where a fixed-frequency converter exhibits large amounts of spectral energy at the switching frequency, the spreadspectrum architecture of the LP8752x-Q1 spreads that energy over a large bandwidth.
Figure 12. Spread-Spectrum Modulation
8.3.2 Sync Clock Functionality
The LP8752x-Q1 device contains a CLKIN input to synchronize the switching clock of the buck regulator with the
external clock. The block diagram of the clocking and PLL module is shown in Figure 13. Depending on the
PLL_MODE[1:0] bits (in PLL_CTRL register) and the external clock availability, the external clock is selected,
and interrupt is generated, as shown in Table 2. The interrupt can be masked with SYNC_CLK_MASK bit in
TOP_MASK1 register. The nominal frequency of the external input clock is set by EXT_CLK_FREQ[4:0] bits (in
PLL_CTRL register), and it can be from 1 MHz to 24 MHz with 1-MHz steps. The external clock must be inside
accuracy limits (–30%/+10%) for valid clock detection.
The NO_SYNC_CLK interrupt (in INT_TOP1 register) is also generated in cases when the external clock is
expected but it is not available. These cases are start-up (read OTP-to-STANDBY transition) when
PLL_MODE[1:0] = 01 and regulator enable (STANDBY-to-ACTIVE transition) when PLL_MODE[1:0] = 10.

8.3.3 Power-Up
The power-up sequence for the LP8752x-Q1 is as follows:
• VANA (and VIN_Bx) reach minimum recommended level (VVANA > VANAUVLO).
• NRST is set to high level (or shorted to VANA). This initiates power-on-reset (POR), OTP reading and
enables the system I/O interface. The I2C host must wait at least 1.2 ms before writing or reading data to the
LP8752x-Q1.
• Device goes to the STANDBY mode.
• The host can change the default register setting by I2C if needed.
• The regulator(s) can be enabled/disabled by ENx pin(s) and by I2C interface.

8.3.4 Regulator Control
8.3.4.1 Enabling and Disabling Regulators
The regulator(s) can be enabled when the device is in STANDBY or ACTIVE state. There are two ways for
enable and disable the regulators:
• Using EN_BUCKx bit in BUCKx_CTRL1 register (EN_PIN_CTRLx register bit is 0h)
• Using EN1, EN2, EN3 control pins (EN_BUCKx bit is 1h AND EN_PIN_CTRLx register bit is 1 in
BUCKx_CTRL1 register)
If the EN1, EN2, EN3 control pins are used for enable and disable then the control pin is selected with
BUCKx_EN_PIN_SELECT[1:0] bits (in BUCKx_CTRL1 register). The delay from the control signal rising edge to
enabling of the regulator is set by BUCKx_STARTUP_DELAY[3:0] bits, and the delay from control signal falling
edge to disabling of the regulator is set by BUCKx_SHUTDOWN_DELAY[3:0] bits in BUCKx_DELAY register.
The delays are valid only for EN1, EN2, EN3 signal control. The control with EN_BUCKx bit is immediate without
the delays.
The control of the regulator (with 0-ms delays) is shown in Table 3.
NOTE
The control of the regulator cannot be changed from one ENx pin to a different ENx pin
because the control is ENx signal-edge sensitive. The control from ENx pin to register bit
and back to the original ENx pin can be done during operation.

The regulator is enabled by the ENx pin or by I2C writing as shown in Figure 14. The soft-start circuit limits the inrush current during start-up. When the output voltage rises to 0.35-V level, the output voltage becomes slew-rate
controlled. If there is a short circuit at the output and the output voltage does not increase above 0.35-V level in 1
ms, the regulator is disabled, and interrupt is set. When the output voltage reaches the Power-Good threshold
level the BUCKx_PG_INT interrupt flag (in INT_BUCK_x register) is set. The Power-Good interrupt flag can be
masked using BUCKx_PG_MASK bit (in BUCKx_MASK register).
The ENx input pins have integrated pulldown resistors. The pulldown resistors are enabled by default, and the
host can disable those with ENx_PD bits (in CONFIG register).

8.3.4.2 Changing Output Voltage
The output voltage of the regulator can be changed by the ENx pin (voltage levels defined by the BUCKx_VOUT
and BUCKx_FLOOR_VOUT registers) or by writing to the BUCKx_VOUT and BUCKx_FLOOR_VOUT registers.
The voltage change is always slew-rate controlled. During voltage change the forced-PWM mode is used
automatically. If the multiphase operation is forced by the BUCKx_FPWM_MP bit (in BUCKx_CTRL1 register),
the regulator operates in multiphase mode (two phases in dual-phase configuration, 3 phases in 3-phase
configuration, and 4 phases in 4-phase configuration). If the multiphase operation is not forced, the number of
phases are added and shedded automatically to follow the required slew rate. When the programmed output
voltage is achieved, the mode becomes the one defined by the load current and the BUCKx_FPWM and
BUCKx_FPWM_MP bits in BUCKx_CTRL1 register.
The Power-Good interrupt is generated when the output voltage reaches the programmed voltage level, as
shown in Figure 15.

8.3.5 Enable and Disable Sequences
The LP8752x-Q1 device supports start-up and shutdown sequencing with programmable delays for different
regulator outputs using one EN1, EN2, EN3 control signal. The regulator is selected for delayed control with:
• EN_BUCKx = 1 (in BUCKx_CTRL1 register)
• EN_PIN_CTRLx = 1 (in BUCKx_CTRL1 register)
• EN_ROOF_FLOORx = 0 (in BUCKx_CTRL1 register)
• BUCKx_VSET[7:0] = Required voltage when ENx is high (in BUCKx_VOUT register)
• The ENABLE pin for control is selected with BUCKx_EN_PIN_SELECT[1:0] (in BUCKx_CTRL1 register)
• The delay from rising edge of ENx signal to the regulator enable is set by BUCKx_STARTUP_DELAY[3:0]
bits (in BUCKx_DELAY register) and
• The delay from falling edge of ENx signal to the regulator disable is set by BUCKx_SHUTDOWN_DELAY[3:0]
bits (in BUCKx_DELAY register)
There are four time steps available for start-up and shutdown sequences. The delay times are selected with
DOUBLE_DELAY bit in CONFIG register and HALF_DELAY bit in PGOOD_CTRL2 register as shown in Table 4.

8.3.6 Device Reset Scenarios
There are three reset methods implemented on the :
• Software reset with SW_RESET register bit (in RESET register)
• POR from rising edge of NRST signal
• Undervoltage lockout (UVLO) reset from VANA supply
An SW reset occurs when SW_RESET bit is written 1. The bit is automatically cleared after writing. This event
disables all the regulators immediately, resets all the register bits to the default values, and OTP bits are loaded
(see Figure 21). I2C interface is not reset during software reset. The host must wait at least 1.2 ms after writing
an SW reset until making a new I2C read or write to the device.
If VANA supply voltage falls below UVLO threshold level or NRST signal is set low then all the regulators are
disabled immediately, and all the register bits are reset to the default values. When the VANA supply voltage
rises above UVLO threshold level AND NRST signal rises above threshold level an internal POR occurs. OTP
bits are loaded to the registers and a start-up is initiated according to the register settings. The host must wait at
least 1.2 ms after POR until reading or writing to I2C interface.
8.3.7 Diagnosis and Protection Features
The LP8752x-Q1 is capable of providing four levels of protection features:
• Information of valid regulator output voltage, which sets interrupt or PGOOD signal;
• Warnings for diagnosis, which set interrupt;
• Protection events that are disabling the regulators affected; and
• Faults that are causing the device to shut down.
The LP8752x-Q1 sets the flag bits indicating what protection or warning conditions have occurred, and the nINT
pin is pulled low. nINT is released again after a clear of flags is complete. The nINT signal stays low until all the
pending interrupts are cleared.
When a fault is detected, it is indicated by a RESET_REG interrupt flag (in INT2_TOP register) after next startup.

8.3.7.1 Power-Good Information (PGOOD Pin)
In addition to the interrupt based indication of current limit and Power-Good level the LP8752x-Q1 device
supports the indication with PGOOD signal. Either voltage-and-current monitoring or a voltage monitoring only
can be selected for PGOOD indication. This selection is individual for all buck regulators (select master phase for
multiphase regulator) and is set by PGx_SEL[1:0] bits (in PGOOD_CTRL1 register). When both voltage and
current are monitored, PGOOD signal active indicates that regulator output is inside the Power-Good voltage
window and that load current is below ILIM FWD. If only voltage is monitored, then the current monitoring is ignored
for the PGOOD signal. When a regulator is disabled, the monitoring is automatically masked to prevent it forcing
PGOOD inactive. This allows connecting PGOOD signals from various devices together when open-drain outputs
are used. When regulator voltage is transitioning from one target voltage to another, the voltage monitoring
PGOOD signal is set inactive. The monitoring from all the output rails are combined, and PGOOD is active only if
all the sources shows active status. The status from all the voltage rails are summarized in Table 6.
If the PGOOD signal is inactive or it changes the state to inactive, the source for the state can be read from
PGOOD_FLT register. During reading all the PGx_FLT bits are cleared that are not driving the PGOOD inactive.
When PGOOD signal goes active, the host must read the PGOOD_FLT register to clear all the bits. The PGOOD
signal follows the status of all the monitored outputs.
The PGOOD signal can be also configured so that it stays in the inactive state even when the monitored outputs
are valid but there are PGx_FLT bits pending clearance in PGOOD_FLT register. This mode of operation is
selected by setting EN_PGFLT_STAT bit to 1 (in PGOOD_CTRL2 register).
The type of output voltage monitoring for PGOOD signal is selected by PGOOD_WINDOW bit (in
PGOOD_CTRL2 register). If the bit is 0, only undervoltage is monitored; if the bit is 1, both undervoltage and
overvoltage are monitored.
The polarity and the output type (push-pull or open-drain) are selected by PGOOD_POL and PGOOD_OD bits in
PGOOD_CTRL2 register.
The filtering time for invalid output voltage is always typically 7 µs, and for valid output voltage the filtering time is
selected with the PGOOD_SET_DELAY bit (in PGOOD_CTRL2 register). The Power-Good waveforms are
shown in Figure 19.

8.3.7.2.1 Output Power Limit
The regulators have output peak current limits. The peak current limits are described in Electrical Charasteristics
Table. If the load current is increased so that the current limit is triggered, the regulator continues to regulate to
the limit current level (current peak regulation, peak on each switching cycle). The voltage may decrease if the
load current is higher than the average output current. If the current regulation continues for 20 µs, the LP8752xQ1 device sets the BUCKx_ILIM_INT bit (in INT_BUCKx register) and pulls the nINT pin low. The host processor
can read BUCKx_ILIM_STAT bits (in BUCKx_STAT register) to see if the regulator is still in peak-currentregulation mode.

If the load is so high that the output voltage decreases below a 350-mV level, the LP8752x-Q1 device disables
the regulator and sets the BUCKx_SC_INT bit (in INT_BUCKx register). In addition the BUCKx_STAT bit (in
BUCKx_STAT register) is set to 0. The interrupt is cleared when the host processor writes 1 to BUCKx_SC_INT
bit. The overload situation is shown in Figure 20.

8.3.7.2.2 Thermal Warning
The LP8752x-Q1 device includes a monitoring feature against overtemperature by setting an interrupt for host
processor. The threshold level of the thermal warning is selected with TDIE_WARN_LEVEL bit (in CONFIG
register).
If the LP8752x-Q1 device temperature increases above thermal warning level the device sets TDIE_WARN bit
(in INT_TOP1 register) and pulls nINT pin low. The status of the thermal warning can be read from
TDIE_WARN_STAT bit (in TOP_STAT register), and the interrupt is cleared by writing 1 to TDIE_WARN bit.
8.3.7.3 Protection (Regulator Disable)
If the regulator is disabled because of protection or fault (short-circuit protection, overload protection, thermal
shutdown, overvoltage protection, or UVLO), the output power FETs are set to high-impedance mode, and the
output pulldown resistor is enabled (if enabled with EN_RDISx bits in BUCKx_CTRL1 register). The turnoff time
of the output voltage is defined by the output capacitance, load current, and the resistance of the integrated
pulldown resistor. The pulldown resistors are active as long as VANA voltage is above approximately a 1.2-V
level.

8.3.7.3.1
www.ti.com
Short-Circuit and Overload Protection
A short-circuit protection feature protects the LP8752x-Q1 device itself and its external components against short
circuit at the output or against overload during start-up. The fault threshold is 350 mV, the protection is triggered,
and the regulator is disabled if the output voltage is below the threshold level of 1 ms after the regulator is
enabled.
In a similar way the overload situation is protected during normal operation. If the voltage on the feedback pin of
the regulator falls to less than 0.35 V and stays lower the threshold level for 1 ms, the regulator is disabled.
In short-circuit and overload situations the BUCKx_SC_INT (in INT_BUCKx register) and the INT_BUCKx bits (in
INT_TOP1 register) are set to 1, the BUCKx_STAT bit (in BUCKx_STAT register) is set to 0, and the nINT signal
is pulled low. The host processor clears the interrupt by writing 1 to the BUCKx_SC_INT bit. After clearing the
interrupt the regulator makes a new start-up attempt if the regulator is in enabled state.
8.3.7.3.2 Overvoltage Protection
The LP8752x-Q1 device monitors the input voltage from the VANA pin in standby and active operation modes. If
the input voltage rises above VANAOVP voltage level, all the regulators are disabled, pulldown resistors discharge
the output voltages (if EN_RDISx = 1 in BUCKx_CTRL1 register), GPIOs that are configured to outputs are set to
logic low level, nINT signal is pulled low, INT_OVP bit (in INT_TOP1 register) is set to 1, and BUCKx_STAT bits
(in BUCK_x_STAT register) are set to 0. The host processor clears the interrupt by writing 1 to the INT_OVP bit.
If the input voltage is above the overvoltage detection level the interrupt is not cleared. The host can read the
status of the overvoltage from the OVP_STAT bit (in TOP_STAT register). Regulators cannot be enabled as long
as the input voltage is above overvoltage detection level or the overvoltage interrupt is pending.
8.3.7.3.3 Thermal Shutdown
The LP8752x-Q1 has an overtemperature protection function that operates to protect the device from short-term
misuse and overload conditions. When the junction temperature exceeds around 150°C, the regulators are
disabled, the TDIE_SD bit (in INT_TOP1 register) is set to 1, the nINT signal is pulled low, and the device goes
to the STANDBY state. The nINT pin is cleared by writing 1h to the TDIE_SD bit. If the temperature is above
thermal shutdown level the interrupt is not cleared. The host can read the status of the thermal shutdown from
the TDIE_SD_STAT bit (in TOP_STAT register). Regulators cannot be enabled as long as the junction
temperature is above thermal shutdown level or the thermal shutdown interrupt is pending.
8.3.7.4 Fault (Power Down)
8.3.7.4.1 Undervoltage Lockout
When the input voltage falls below VANAUVLO at the VANA pin, the buck converters are disabled immediately,
and the output capacitors are discharged using the pulldown resistor, and the LP8752x-Q1 device goes to the
SHUTDOWN state. When the VANA voltage is greater than the UVLO threshold level and NRST signal is high,
the device powers up to STANDBY state.
If the reset interrupt is unmasked by default (RESET_REG_MASK = 0 in TOP_MASK2 register) the
RESET_REG interrupt (in INT_TOP2 register) indicates that the device has been in SHUTDOWN. The host
processor must clear the interrupt by writing 1 to the RESET_REG bit. If the host processor reads the
RESET_REG flag after detecting an nINT low signal, it knows that the input supply voltage has been below
UVLO level (or the host has requested reset), and the registers are reset to default values.

8.3.8 GPIO Signal Operation
The LP8752x-Q1 device supports up to 3 GPIO signals. The GPIO signals are multiplexed with enable signals.
The selection between enable and GPIO function is set with GPIOx_SEL bits in PIN_FUNCTION register. The
GPIOs are mapped to EN signals so that:
• EN1 is multiplexed with GPIO1
• EN2 is multiplexed with GPIO2
• EN3 is multiplexed with GPIO3
When the pin is selected for GPIO function, additional bits defines how the GPIO operates:
• GPIOx_DIR defines the direction of the GPIO, input or output (GPIO_CONFIG register)
• GPIOx_OD defines the type of the output when the GPIO is set to output, either push-pull with VANA level or
open-drain (GPIO_CONFIG register)
When the GPIOx is defined as output, the logic level of the pin is set by GPIOx_OUT bit (in GPIO_OUT register).
When the GPIOx is defined as input, the logic level of the pin can be read from GPIOx_IN bit (in GPIO_IN
register).
The control of the GPIOs configured to outputs can be included to start-up and shutdown sequences. The GPIO
control for a sequence with ENx signal is selected by EN_PIN_CTRL_GPIOx and EN_PIN_SELECT_GPIOx bits
(in
PIN_FUNCTION
register).
The
delays
during
start-up
and
shutdown
are
set
by
GPIOx_STARTUP_DELAY[3:0] and GPIOx_SHUTDOWN_DELAY[3:0] bits (in GPIOx_DELAY register) in the
same way as control of the regulators.
The GPIOx signals have a selectable pulldown resistor. The pulldown resistors are selected by ENx_PD bits (in
CONFIG register).
NOTE
The control of the GPIOx pin cannot be changed from one ENx pin to a different ENx pin
because the control is ENx signal edge sensitive. The control from ENx pin to register bit
and back to the original ENx pin can be done during operation.
8.3.9 Digital Signal Filtering
The digital signals have a debounce filtering. The signal/supply is sampled with a clock signal and a counter.
This results as an accuracy of one clock period for the debounce window.

8.5 Programming
8.5.1 I2C-Compatible Interface
The I2C-compatible synchronous serial interface provides access to the programmable functions and registers on
the device. This protocol uses a two-wire interface for bidirectional communications between the devices
connected to the bus. The two interface lines are the serial data line (SDA), and the serial clock line (SCL). Each
device on the bus is assigned a unique address and acts as either a master or a slave depending on whether it
generates or receives the serial clock SCL. The SCL and SDA lines must each have a pullup resistor placed
somewhere on the line and stays HIGH even when the bus is idle. Note: CLK pin is not used for serial bus data
transfer. The LP8752x-Q1 supports standard mode (100 kHz), fast mode (400 kHz), fast mode+ (1 MHz), and
high-speed mode (3.4 MHz).
8.5.1.1 Data Validity
The data on the SDA line must be stable during the HIGH period of the clock signal (SCL). In other words, the
state of the data line can only be changed when clock signal is LOW.

8.5.1.2 Start and Stop Conditions
The LP8752x-Q1 is controlled via an I2C-compatible interface. START and STOP conditions classify the
beginning and end of the I2C session. A START condition is defined as SDA transitions from HIGH to LOW while
SCL is HIGH. A STOP condition is defined as SDA transition from LOW to HIGH while SCL is HIGH. The I2C
master always generates the START and STOP conditions.

Figure 23. Start and Stop Sequences
The I2C bus is considered busy after a START condition and free after a STOP condition. During data
transmission the I2C master can generate repeated START conditions. A START and a repeated START
condition are equivalent function-wise. The data on SDA must be stable during the HIGH period of the clock
signal (SCL). In other words, the state of SDA can only be changed when SCL is LOW. Figure 24 shows the
SDA and SCL signal timing for the I2C-compatible bus.

8.5.1.3 Transferring Data
Each byte put on the SDA line must be eight bits long, with the most significant bit (MSB) being transferred first.
Each byte of data has to be followed by an acknowledge bit. The acknowledge related clock pulse is generated
by the master. The master releases the SDA line (HIGH) during the acknowledge clock pulse. The LP8752x-Q1
pulls down the SDA line during the 9th clock pulse, signifying an acknowledge. The LP8752x-Q1 generates an
acknowledge after each byte has been received.
There is one exception to the acknowledge after each byte rule. When the master is the receiver, it must indicate
to the transmitter an end of data by not-acknowledging (negative acknowledge) the last byte clocked out of the
slave. This negative acknowledge still includes the acknowledge clock pulse (generated by the master), but the
SDA line is not pulled down.
NOTE
If the NRST signal is low during I2C communication the LP8752x-Q1 device does not drive
SDA line. The ACK signal and data transfer to the master is disabled at that time.
After the START condition, the bus master sends a chip address. This address is seven bits long followed by an
eighth bit which is a data direction bit (READ or WRITE). For the eighth bit, a 0 indicates a WRITE, and a 1
indicates a READ. The second byte selects the register to which the data will be written. The third byte contains
data to write to the selected register.

8.5.1.4 I2C-Compatible Chip Address
NOTE
The device address for the LP8752x-Q1 is defined in the Technical Reference Manual
(TRM).
After the START condition, the I2C master sends the 7-bit address followed by an eighth bit, read or write (R/W).
R/W = 0 indicates a WRITE, and R/W = 1 indicates a READ. The second byte following the device address
selects the register address to which the data will be written. The third byte contains the data for the selected
register.

8.5.1.5 Auto-Increment Feature
The auto-increment feature allows writing several consecutive registers within one transmission. Each time an 8bit word is sent to the device, the internal address index counter is incremented by one and the next register is
written. Table 8 shows writing sequence to two consecutive registers. Note that auto increment feature does not
work for read.

Typical Applications (continued)
9.2.1 Design Requirements
9.2.1.1 Inductor Selection
The inductors are L0, L1, L2, and L3 are shown in the Typical Applications. The inductance and DCR of the
inductor affects the control loop of the buck regulator. TI recommends using inductors similar to those listed in
Table 10. Pay attention to the saturation current and temperature rise current of the inductor. Check that the
saturation current is higher than the peak current limit and the temperature rise current is higher than the
maximum expected rms output current. The minimum effective inductance to make sure performance is good is
0.22 μH at maximum peak output current over the operating temperature range. DC resistance of the inductor
must be less than 0.05 Ω for good efficiency at high-current condition. The inductor AC loss (resistance) also
affects conversion efficiency. Higher Q factor at switching frequency usually gives better efficiency at light load to
middle load. Shielded inductors are preferred as they radiate less noise.

9.2.1.2 Input Capacitor Selection
The input capacitors CIN0, CIN1, CIN2, and CIN3 are shown in the Typical Applications. A ceramic input bypass
capacitor of 10 μF is required for each phase of the regulator. Place the input capacitor as close as possible to
the VIN_Bx pin and PGND_Bx pin of the device. A larger value or higher voltage rating improves the input
voltage filtering. Use X7R type of capacitors, not Y5V or F. DC bias characteristics capacitors must be
considered. The minimum effective input capacitance to make sure performance is good is 1.9 μF for each buck
input at the maximum input voltage including tolerances and ambient temperature range. This value assumes
that at least 22 μF of additional capacitance is common for all the power input pins on the system power rail. See
Table 11.
The input filter capacitor supplies current to the high-side FET switch in the first half of each cycle and decreases
voltage ripple imposed on the input power source. A ceramic capacitor's low ESR provides the best noise filtering
of the input voltage spikes due to this rapidly changing current. Select an input filter capacitor with sufficient
ripple current rating. In addition ferrite can be used in front of the input capacitor to decrease the EMI.

9.2.1.3 Output Capacitor Selection
The output capacitors COUT0, COUT1, COUT2, and COUT3 are shown in Typical Applications. A ceramic local output
capacitor of 22 μF is required per phase. Use ceramic capacitors, X7R or X7T types; do not use Y5V or F. DC
bias voltage characteristics of ceramic capacitors must be considered. The output filter capacitor smooths out
current flow from the inductor to the load, helps keep a steady output voltage during transient load changes and
decreases output voltage ripple. These capacitors must be selected with sufficient capacitance and sufficiently
low ESR and ESL to do these functions. The minimum effective output capacitance to make sure performance is
good is 10 μF for each phase including the DC voltage roll-off, tolerances, aging and temperature effects.
The output voltage ripple is caused by the charging and discharging of the output capacitor and also due to its
RESR. The RESR is frequency dependent (as well as temperature dependent); make sure the value used for
selection process is at the switching frequency of the part. See Table 12.
POL capacitors (CPOL0, CPOL1, CPOL2, CPOL3) can be used to improve load transient performance and to decrease
the ripple voltage. A higher output capacitance improves the load step behavior and decreases the output
voltage ripple as well as decreases the PFM switching frequency. However, output capacitance higher than 100
µF per phase is not necessarily of any benefit. Note that the output capacitor may be the limiting factor in the
output voltage ramp and the maximum total output capacitance listed in electrical characteristics for the specified
slew rate must not be exceeded. At shutdown the output voltage is discharged to 0.6 V level using forced-PWM
operation. This can increase the input voltage if the load current is small and the output capacitor is large. Below
0.6 V level the output capacitor is discharged by the internal discharge resistor and with large capacitor more
time is required to settle VOUT down as a consequence of the increased time constant.

9.2.1.4 Snubber Components
If the input voltage for the regulators is above 4 V, snubber components are needed at the switching nodes to
decrease voltage spiking in the switching node and to improve EMI. The snubber capacitors C0, C1, C2, and C3
and the snubber resistors R0, R1, R2, and R3 are shown in Figure 31. The recommended components are shown
in Table 13 and these component values give good performance on LP8752x-Q1 EVM. The optimal resistance
and capacitance values finally depend on the PCB layout.

VOUT

VIN(max) u K
'IL
(VIN(max)
(1)
VOUT ) u D
fSW u L
(2)
Example using Equation 1 and Equation 2:
VIN(max) = 5.5 V
VOUT(max) = 1 V
η(min) = 0.75
fSW(min) = 1.8 MHz
L(min) = 0.38 µH
then D(max) = 0.242 and ΔIL(max) = 1.59 A
Peak current is half of the current ripple. If ILIM_FWD_SET_OTP is 5 A, the minimum forward current limit would be
4.75 A when taking the –5% tolerance into account. In the worst case situation difference between set peak
current and maximum load current = 0.795 A + 0.25 A = 1.045 A.

9.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
The performance of the LP8752x-Q1 device depends greatly on the care taken in designing the printed circuit
board (PCB). The use of low-inductance and low serial-resistance ceramic capacitors is strongly recommended,
while correct grounding is crucial. Attention must be given to decoupling the power supplies. Decoupling
capacitors must be connected close to the device and between the power and ground pins to support high peak
currents being drawn from system power rail during turnon of the switching MOSFETs. Keep input and output
traces as short as possible, because trace inductance, resistance, and capacitance can easily become the
performance limiting items. The separate power pins VIN_Bx are not connected together internally. Connect the
VIN_Bx power connections together outside the package using power plane construction.

10 Power Supply Recommendations
The device is designed to operate from an input voltage supply range from 2.8 V and 5.5 V. This input supply
must be well regulated and can withstand maximum input current and keep a stable voltage without voltage drop
even at load transition condition. The resistance of the input supply rail must be low enough that the input current
transient does not cause too high drop in the LP8752x-Q1 supply voltage that can cause false UVLO fault
triggering. If the input supply is located more than a few inches from the LP8752x-Q1 additional bulk capacitance
may be required in addition to the ceramic bypass capacitors.

11 Layout
11.1 Layout Guidelines
The high frequency and large switching currents of the LP8752x-Q1 make the choice of layout important. Good
power supply results only occur when care is given to correct design and layout. Layout affects noise pickup and
generation and can cause a good design to perform with less-than-expected results. With a range of output
currents from milliamps to 10 A, good power supply layout is much more difficult than most general PCB design.
Use the following steps as a reference to make sure the device is stable and keeps correct voltage and current
regulation across its intended operating voltage and current range.
• Place CIN as close as possible to the VIN_Bx pin and the PGND_Bxx pin. Route the VIN trace wide and thick
to avoid IR drops. The trace between the positive node of the input capacitor and the VIN_Bx pin(s) of
LP8752x-Q1, as well as the trace between the negative node of the input capacitor and power PGND_Bxx
pin(s), must be kept as short as possible. The input capacitance provides a low-impedance voltage source for
the switching converter. The inductance of the connection is the most important parameter of a local
decoupling capacitor — parasitic inductance on these traces must be kept as small as possible for correct
device operation. The parasitic inductance can be decreased by using a ground plane as close as possible to
top layer by using thin dielectric layer between top layer and ground plane.
• The output filter, consisting of COUT and L, converts the switching signal at SW_Bx to the noiseless output
voltage. It must be placed as close as possible to the device keeping the switch node small, for best EMI
behavior. Route the traces between the LP8752x-Q1 output capacitors and the load direct and wide to avoid
losses due to the IR drop.
• Input for analog blocks (VANA and AGND) must be isolated from noisy signals. Connect VANA directly to a
quiet system voltage node and AGND to a quiet ground point where no IR drop occurs. Place the decoupling
capacitor as close as possible to the VANA pin.
• If the processor load supports remote voltage sensing, connect the feedback pins FB_Bx of the LP8752x-Q1
device to the respective sense pins on the processor. The sense lines are susceptible to noise. They must be
kept away from noisy signals such as PGND_Bxx, VIN_Bx, and SW_Bx, as well as high bandwidth signals
such as the I2C. Avoid both capacitive and inductive coupling by keeping the sense lines short, direct, and
close to each other. Run the lines in a quiet layer. Isolate them from noisy signals by a voltage or ground
plane if possible. Running the signal as a differential pair is recommended for multiphase outputs. If series
resistors are used for load current measurement, place them after connection of the voltage feedback.
• PGND_Bxx, VIN_Bx and SW_Bx must be routed on thick layers. They must not surround inner signal layers,
which are cannot withstand interference from noisy PGND_Bxx, VIN_Bx and SW_Bx.
• If the input voltage is above 4 V, place snubber components (capacitor and resistor) between SW_Bx and
ground on all four phases. The components can be also placed to the other side of the board if there are area
limitations and the routing traces can be kept short.
Due to the small package of this converter and the overall small solution size, the thermal performance of the
PCB layout is important. Many system-dependent parameters such as thermal coupling, airflow, added heat
sinks and convection surfaces, and the presence of other heat-generating components affect the power
dissipation limits of a given component. Correct PCB layout, focusing on thermal performance, results in lower
die temperatures. Wide and thick power traces can sink dissipated heat. This can be improved further on multilayer PCB designs with vias to different planes. This results in decreased junction-to-ambient (RθJA) and junctionto-board (RθJB) thermal resistances and thereby decreases the device junction temperature, TJ. TI strongly
recommends doing a careful system-level 2D or full 3D dynamic thermal analysis at the beginning product design
process, by using a thermal modeling analysis software.
