MP2930
4-Phase PWM Controller
With 8-Bit DAC code for VR10 and VR11
DESCRIPTION
The MP2930 is a 4-phase, synchronous buck
switching regulator controller for regulating
microprocessor core voltage. MP2930 also uses
dual edge PWM mode to realize fast load
transient with fewer capacitors.
For meeting the requirement of microprocessor
output voltage drops tightly as load current
increases, output current is sensed to realize
voltage droop function. Accurate current
balancing is included in MP2930 to provide
current balance for each channel.

2) The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of the
maximum junction temperature TJ (MAX), the junction-toambient thermal resistance θJA, and the ambient temperature
TA. The maximum allowable continuous power dissipation at
any ambient temperature is calculated by PD (MAX) = (TJ (MAX)TA) /θJA. Exceeding the maximum allowable power dissipation
will cause excessive die temperature, and the regulator will
go into thermal shutdown. Internal thermal shutdown circuitry
protects the device from permanent damage.
3) The device is not guaranteed to function outside of its
operating conditions.

MP2930 - 4-PHASE PWM CONTROLLER WITH 8-BIT DAC CODE
OPERATION
Multiphase Power Conversion
The MP2930 is a multiphase regulators and it
can be programmed for 2-, 3- or 4-channel
operation for microprocessor core. The
switching of each channel in a multiphase
converter is timed to be symmetrically out-ofphase with each of the other channels. The
interleaving work of each phase can help to
reduce of ripple current amplitude and to
reduce input ripple current.
PWM Operation
Under steady state conditions the operation of
the MP2930 appears to be that of a
conventional
trailing
edge
modulator.
Conventional analysis and design methods can
be used for steady state and small signal
operation.
RT
2.5 1010
FSW
(1)
Where FSW is the switching frequency of each
phase.
Current Sensing
MP2930 has cycle by cycle current sense for
fast response. MP2930 adopts inductor DCR
sensing, or resistive sensing techniques. The
sense current, ISEN, is proportional to the
inductor current. The sensed current is used for
current balance, load-line regulation, and
overcurrent protection.
Inductor DCR Sensing
The MP2930 can adopt a lossless current
sensing scheme, commonly referred to as
inductor DCR sensing, as shown in Figure 2.
Under load transition condition, the MP2930
can turn on all phase together to improve the
load transient. It can achieve excellent transient
performance and reduce the demand on the
output capacitors.
The default channel setting for the MP2930 is
four and the timing of each channel is set by the
number of active channels. The cycle time of
the pulse signal is the inverse of the switching
frequency set by the resistor between the FS
pin and GND.
For 4-channel operation, the channel firing
order is 4-3-2-1: PWM3 pulse happens 1/4 of a
cycle after PWM4, PWM2 output follows
another 1/4 of a cycle after PWM3, and PWM1
delays another 1/4 of a cycle after PWM2. For
3-channel operation, the channel firing order is
3-2-1.
Connecting PWM4 to VCC selects 3-phase
operation and the pulse times are spaced in 1/3
cycle increments. If PWM3 is connected to VCC,
2-phase operation is selected and the PWM2
pulse happens 1/2 of a cycle after PWM pulse.
Switching Frequency
The MP2930 switching frequency is set by the
external resistor RT between the FS pin and
GND. The resistor RT can be estimated by:
Equation (1).

MP2930 - 4-PHASE PWM CONTROLLER WITH 8-BIT DAC CODE
If the RC network components are selected
such that the RC time constant (=R*C) matches
the inductor time constant (=L/DCR), the
voltage across the capacitor VC is equal to the
voltage drop across the DCR, i.e., proportional
to the channel current.
Therefore, the current out of ISEN+ pin (ISEN), is
proportional to the inductor current and it can
be seen form Equation (4).

Resistive Sensing
For accurate current sense, a current-sense
resistor RSENSE in series with each output
inductor can serve as the current sense
element (see Figure 3). This technique is more
accurate, but reduces overall converter
efficiency due to the additional power loss on
the current sense resistor RSENSE.
Channel-Current Balance
The sensed current In from each active channel
is summed together and divided by the number
of active channels. The resulting average
current (IAVG) provides a measure of the total
load current. Channel current balance is
achieved by comparing the sensed current of
each channel to the average current to make an
appropriate adjustment to the PWM duty cycle
of each channel.
Channel current balance is essential in
achieving the thermal advantage of multiphase
operation. With good current balance, the
power loss is equally dissipated over multiple
devices and a greater area.
Equation (5) shows the ratio of the channel
current to the sensed current ISEN.
Voltage Regulation
The compensation network shown in Figure 4
assures that the steady-state error in the output
voltage is limited only to the error in the
reference voltage (output of the DAC) and
offset errors in the OFS current source, remotesense and error amplifiers.

MP2930 - 4-PHASE PWM CONTROLLER WITH 8-BIT DAC CODE
The output of the error amplifier (VCOMP) is
compared to sawtooth waveforms to generate
the PWM signals. The PWM signals control the
timing of the MP86961 and regulate the
converter output to the specified reference
voltage. The internal and external circuitry,
which control voltage regulation are shown in
Figure 4.
The MP2930 incorporates an internal
differential remote-sense amplifier in the
feedback path, which results in a more accurate
means of sensing output voltage. Connect the
microprocessor sense pins to the non-inverting
input (VSEN) and inverting input (RGND) of the
remote-sense amplifier. The remote-sense
output (VDIFF) is connected to the inverting
input of the error amplifier through an external
resistor.
Each ID input offers a 45µA pull-up to an
internal 2.5V source for use with open-drain
outputs. The pull-up current diminishes to zero
above the logic threshold to protect voltagesensitive output devices. External pull-up
resistors can augment the pull-up current
sources if case leakage into the driving device
is greater than 45µA.

Where VREF is the reference voltage, VOFS is the
programmed offset voltage, IOUT is the total
output current of the converter, RISEN is the
sense resistor connected to the ISEN+ pin, and
RFB is the feedback resistor, N is the active
channel number, and RX is the DCR, or RSENSE
depending on the sensing method.
Therefore the equivalent load-line impedance
(Droop impedance), can be derived from
Equation (8):
RLL
As shown in Figure 4, a current proportional to
the average current of all active channels (IAVG)
flows from FB through a load-line regulation
resistor RFB. The voltage drop across RFB is
proportional to the output current. It can be
derived from Equation (6):

The regulated output voltage is reduced by the

current sense method employed in Equation (7).

some time, MP2930 reads the ID code at ID
input pins. If the ID code is valid, MP2930 will
regulate the output to the final ID setting. If the
ID code is OFF code, MP2930 will shutdown,
and cycling VCC, EN_PWR or EN_VTT is
needed to restart.
Soft-Start
The maximum Negative Offset for MP2930 is
150mV.
Enable and Disable
While in shutdown mode, the PWM outputs are
held in a Hi-Z state, and the SD signal is pulled
low to assure the Intelli-phase remain off. The
following input conditions must be met to start
MP2932.
1. VCC must reach the internal power-on reset
(POR) rising threshold.
2. EN_PWR is used to coordinate the power
sequencing between VCC and another
voltage rail. The enable comparator holds
the MP2932 in shutdown until the voltage at
EN_PWR rises above 0.875V.
3. The voltage on EN_VTT must be higher than
0.875V to enable the controller. This pin is
typically connected to the output of VTT VR.
MP2930 based VR has 4 periods during softstart as shown in Figure 7. After VCC, EN_VTT
and EN_PWR reach their POR/enable
thresholds, the controller will have fixed delay
period td1. After this delay period, the VR will
begin first soft-start ramp until the output
voltage reaches 1.1V voltage. Then, the
controller will regulate the VR voltage at 1.1V
for another fixed period td3. At the end of td3
period, MP2930 reads the ID signals. If the ID
code is valid, MP2930 will initiate the second
soft-start ramp until the voltage reaches the ID
voltage minus offset voltage.

td1 is a fixed delay with the typical value as
1.36ms. td3 is determined by the fixed 85µs plus
the time to obtain valid ID voltage. If the ID is
valid before the output reaches the 1.1V, the
minimum time to validate the ID input is 500ns.
Therefore the minimum td3 is about 86µs.
During td2 and td4, MP2930 digitally controls the
DAC voltage change at 6.25mV per step. The
time for each step is determined by the
frequency of the soft-start oscillator which is

Two actions are taken by the MP2930 to protect
the microprocessor load when an over-voltage
condition occurs.
VR_RDY

For example, when ID is set to 1.5V and the
RSS is set at 100kΩ, the first soft-start ramp time
td2 will be 469µs and the second soft-start ramp
time td4 will be 171µs.
After the DAC voltage reaches the final ID
setting, VR_RDY will be set to high with the
fixed delay td5. The typical value for td5 is 85µs.
Fault Monitoring and Protection
The MP2930 actively monitors output voltage
and current to detect fault conditions. One
common power good indicator is provided for
linking to external system monitors. The
schematic in Figure 8 outlines the interaction
between the fault monitors and the VR_RDY
signal.
VR_RDY Signal
The VR_RDY pin is an open-drain logic output
to indicate that the soft-start period has
completed and the output voltage is within the
regulated range. VR_RDY is pulled low during
shutdown and releases high after a successful
soft-start and a fixed delay td5. VR_RDY will be
pulled low when an under-voltage or overvoltage condition is detected, or the controller is
disabled by a reset from EN_PWR, EN_VTT,
POR, or ID OFF-code.
Under-voltage Detection
The undervoltage threshold is set at 50% of the
ID code. When the output voltage at VSEN is
below the undervoltage threshold, VR_RDY is
pulled low.
Over-voltage Protection
Regardless of the VR being enabled or not, the
MP2930 over-voltage protection (OVP) circuit
will be active after its POR. The OVP thresholds
are different at different operation conditions.
When VR is not enabled and during the softstart intervals td1, td2 and td3, the OVP threshold
is 1.275V. Once the controller detects valid ID

Figure 8—VR_RDY and Protection Circuitry
At the beginning of an over-voltage event, all
PWM outputs are commanded low instantly
(>20ns). This causes the MP86961 to turn on
the lower MOSFETs and pull the output voltage
below a level to avoid damaging the load. When
the VDIFF voltage falls below the DAC + 75mV,
PWM signals enter a high-impedance state,
and the SD pin is pulled low to turn off the
MP86961.
Once an over-voltage condition is detected,
normal PWM operation ceases until the
MP2930 is reset. Cycling the voltage on
EN_PWR, EN_VTT or VCC below the PORfalling threshold will reset the controller. Cycling
the ID codes will not reset the controller.
Over-current Protection
MP2930 has two levels of over-current
protection. Each phase is protected from a
sustained over-current condition by limiting its
peak current, while the combined phase
currents are protected on an instantaneous
basis.
In instantaneous protection mode, the MP2930
utilizes the sensed average current IAVG to
detect an over-current condition. The average
current is continually compared with a constant
85µA reference current, as shown in Figure 8.

MP2930 - 4-PHASE PWM CONTROLLER WITH 8-BIT DAC CODE
Once the average current exceeds the
reference current, a comparator triggers the
converter to shutdown.
At the beginning of over-current shutdown, the
controller places all PWM signals in a highimpedance state within 20ns to turn off the
MP86961. The system remains in this state
about 12ms. If the controller is still enabled at
the end of this wait period, it will attempt a softstart. If the fault remains, the hiccup mode will
continue indefinitely until either controller is
disabled or the fault is cleared. Note that the
energy delivered during hiccup mode is much
less than during full-load operation, so there is
no thermal hazard during this kind of operation.
OUTPUT CURRENT
The VR_FAN signal indicates that the
temperature of the voltage regulator is high and
more cooling airflow is needed. The VR_HOT
signal can be used to inform the system that the
temperature of the voltage regulator is too high
and the CPU should reduce its power
consumption.

For the individual channel over-current
protection, the MP2930 continuously compares
the sensed current signal of each channel with
the 120µA reference current. If one channel
current exceeds the reference current, MP2930
will pull PWM signal of this channel to low for
the rest of the switching cycle. This PWM signal
can be turned on next cycle if the sensed
channel current is less than the 120µA
reference current. The peak current limit of
individual channel will not trigger the converter
to shutdown.
Thermal Monitoring (VR_HOT/VR_FAN)
There are two thermal signals to indicate the
temperature status of the voltage regulator:
VR_HOT and VR_FAN. Both VR_FAN and
VR_HOT pins are open-drain outputs, and
external pull-up resistors are required. Those
signals are valid after the controller is enabled.

The diagram of thermal monitoring function
block is shown in Figure 10. One NTC resistor
should be placed close to the power stage of
the voltage regulator to sense the operational
temperature, and one pull-up resistor is needed
to form the voltage divider for the TM pin. As
the temperature of the power stage increases,
the resistance of the NTC will reduce, resulting
in the reduced voltage at the TM pin.

The VR_FAN signal is set to high when the TM
voltage goes below 28% of VCC voltage, and is
pulled to GND when the TM voltage goes back
to above 33% of VCC voltage. Figure 11 shows
the operation of those signals.
Current Sense Output
The current from the IDROOP pin is the sensed
average current. In typical application, the
IDROOP pin is connected to the FB pin for the
application where load line is required.
When load line function is not needed, the
IDROOP pin can be used to obtain the load
current information: with one resistor from the
IDROOP pin to GND, the voltage at the
IDROOP pin will be proportional to the load
current in Equation (15):

converter, RISEN is the sense resistor connected
to the ISEN+ pin, N is the active channel
number, and RX is the resistance of the current
sense element, either the DCR of the inductor
or RSENSE depending on the sensing method.
RIDROOP should be chosen to ensure that the
voltage at the IDROOP pin is less than 2V
under the maximum load current.
If the IDROOP pin is not used, tie it to GND.

The resistors connected to the ISEN+ pins

Typically, IOCP can be chosen to be 1.3x the
maximum load current of the specific
application.
Compensation
There are two distinct methods for achieving
the compensation.
Compensating Load-Line Regulated
Converter
The load-line regulated converter behaves in a
similar manner to a peak-current mode
controller because the two poles at the outputfilter L-C resonant frequency split with the
introduction of current information into the
control loop. The final location of these poles is
determined by the system function, the gain of
the current signal, and the value of the
compensation components, RC and CC.
Treating the system as though it were a
voltage-mode regulator by compensating the LC poles and the ESR zero of the voltage-mode.
C2 (OPTIONAL)
Load-Line Regulation Resistor
The load-line regulation resistor is labeled RFB
in Figure 4. Its value depends on the desired
load-line requirement of the application.
The desired load-line can be calculated by
using Equation (17):

Where IFL is the full load current of the specific

must be large enough to assure adequate
transient performance, but smaller than 1/3 of
the per-channel switching frequency. The
values of the compensation components
depend on the relationships of f0 to the L-C pole
frequency and the ESR zero frequency.

characterized according to their capacitance,
ESR, and ESL (equivalent series inductance).
At the beginning of the load transient, the
output capacitors supply all of the transient
current. The output voltage will initially deviate
by an amount approximated by the voltage drop
across the ESL. As the load current increases,
the voltage drop across the ESR increases
linearly until the load current reaches its final
value. The capacitors selected must have
sufficiently low ESL and ESR so that the total
output voltage deviation is less than the
allowable maximum. Neglecting the contribution
of inductor current and regulator response, the
output voltage initially deviates by an amount in
Equation (19):

The first step is to choose the desired
bandwidth, f0, of the compensated system.
Choose a frequency high enough to assure
adequate transient performance but not higher
than 1/3 of the switching frequency. The type-III
compensator has an extra high-frequency pole,
fHF. A good general rule is to choose fHF=10f0,
but it can be higher if desired. Choosing fHF to
be lower than 10f0 can cause problems with too
much phase shift below the system bandwidth.

The filter capacitor must have sufficiently low
ESL and ESR so that ΔV < ΔVMAX.
The ESR of the bulk capacitors also creates the
majority of the output voltage ripple. As the bulk
capacitors sink and source the inductor AC
ripple current, a voltage develops across the
bulk-capacitor ESR. Thus, once the output
capacitors are selected, the maximum
allowable ripple voltage, VP-P(MAX) determines
the lower limit on the inductance.

Designing the Output Filter
The output inductors and the output capacitor
bank together to form a low-pass filter
responsible for smoothing the pulsating voltage
at the phase nodes. The output filter also must
provide the transient energy until the regulator
can respond.
Since the capacitors are supplying a decreasing
portion of the load current while the regulator
recovers from the transient, the capacitor
voltage becomes slightly depleted. The output
inductors must be capable of assuming the
entire load current before the output voltage
decreases more than ΔVMAX. This places an
upper limit on inductance.
In high-speed converters, the output capacitor
bank is usually the most costly (and often the
largest) part of the circuit. The critical load
parameters in choosing the output capacitors
are the maximum size of the load step, ΔI; the
load-current slew rate, di/dt; and the maximum
allowable output voltage deviation under
transient loading, ΔVMAX. Capacitors are
Selecting the Switching Frequency
There are a number of variables to consider
when choosing the switching frequency, as
there are considerable effects on the upperMOSFET loss calculation. The lower limit is
established by the requirement for fast transient
response and small output voltage ripple as
outlined in “Output Filter Design”. Choose the

lowest switching frequency that allows the
regulator to meet the transient-response
requirements.
PC Board Layout
For best performance of the MP2930, the
following guidelines should be strictly followed:
Selecting the Input Capacitor
The input capacitors are responsible for
sourcing the AC component of the input current
flowing into the upper MOSFETs. Their RMS
current capacity must be sufficient to handle the
AC component of the current drawn by the
upper MOSFETs which is related to duty cycle
and the number of active phases.
Within the allotted implementation area, place
the switching components first. Switching
component placement should take into account
power dissipation. Align the output inductors
and MOSFETs such that space between the
components is minimized while creating the
PHASE plane. If possible, duplicate the same
placement of these components for each phase.
Low capacitance, high-frequency ceramic
capacitors are needed in addition to the bulk
capacitors to suppress leading and falling edge
voltage spikes. Select low ESL ceramic
capacitors and place one as close as possible
to each upper MOSFET drain to minimize board
parasitic
impedances
and
maximize
suppression.
Next, place the input and output capacitors.
Position one high frequency ceramic input
capacitor next to each upper MOSFET drain.
Place the input capacitors as close to the upper
MOSFET drains as dictated by the component
size and dimensions. Locate the output
capacitors between the inductors and the load,
while keeping them in close proximity to the
microprocessor socket.
