DESCRIPTION
The IR38060 PMBus SupIRBuck™ is an easy-to-use,
fully integrated and highly efficient DC/DC regulator
with I2C/PMBus interface. The onboard PWM controller
and MOSFETs make IR38060 a space-efficient
solution, providing accurate power delivery for low
output voltage and high current applications.
The IR38060 can be comprehensively configured via
PMBus and the configuration stored in internal
memory. In addition, PMBus commands allow run-time
control, fault status and telemetry.
The IR38060 can also operate as a standard analog
regulator without any programming and can provide
current and temperature telemetry in an analog format.

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ *
Track_En
Input voltage for power stage. Bypass capacitors between PVin and PGND should
be connected very close to this pin and PGND. Typical applications use 4 X22 uF
input capacitors and a low ESR, low ESL 0.1uF decoupling capacitor in a
0603/0402 case size. A 3.3nF capacitor may also be used in parallel with these
input capacitors to reduce ringing on the Sw node.
Supply voltage for high side driver. A 0.1uF capacitor should be connected between
the Boot pin and the Sw node. It is recommended to provide a placement for a 0
ohm resistor in series with the capacitor. For applications in which PVin>12V, the
value of the series resistor should be chosen to be 1 ohm.
Pull low to enable tracking function. For normal, non-tracking operation, connect a
100 kOhm resistor from this pin to P1V8. An alternative to using 100kohm to P1V8
is to connect a 750 kohm resistor from Track_En# to LGND when the Track_En#
pin is not used for a tracking function. One of these two options must be used to
disable tracking functionality. The 100kOhm is the preferred method.
Used for sequencing and tracking applications. Leave open if not used.
Sense pin for OVP and PGood
Inverting input to the error amplifier. This pin is connected directly to the output of
the regulator or to the output of the remote sense amplifier, via resistor divider to
set the output voltage and provide feedback to the error amplifier.
Output of error amplifier. An external resistor and capacitor network is typically
connected from this pin to FB to provide loop compensation.
Remote Sense Amplifier Output
Remote Sense Amplifier input. Connect to ground at the load.
Remote Sense Amplifier input. Connect to output at the load.
Po Power Good status pin. Output is open drain. Connect a pull up resistor from
this pin to VCC. If the power good voltage before VCC UVLO needs to be limited to
< 500 mV, use a 49.9K pullup, otherwise a 4.99K pullup will suffice.
Power ground. This pin should be connected to the system’s power ground plane.
Bypass capacitors between PVin and PGND should be connected very close to the
PVIN pin (pin 1) and this pin.
Signal ground for internal reference and control circuitry.
In analog mode, use an external resistor from this pin to GND to set the switching
frequency. The resistor should be placed very close to the pin. This pin can also be
used for external synchronization. In digital mode this pin is typically left floating
however a 15K resistor from this pin to GND may be used instead of floating the
pin.
Enable pin to turn on and off the IC. In analog mode, also serves as a mode pin,
forcing the converter to operate in CCM when pulled to<3.1V.
A resistor should be connected from this pin to LGnd to set the PMBus address
offset for the device. It is recommended to provide a placement for a 10 nF
capacitor in parallel with the offset resistor. If communication is not needed, as in
analog mode, this pin should be left floating.

SMBus clock line; This should be pulled up to 3.3V-5V with a 1K-5K resistor. This
pin is used to set OC thresholds if digital communication is not needed, as in analog
mode. In analog mode recommend 4.7KΩ for the pull-up to VCC or pull down to
GND when setting the OCP value.
This is the supply for the digital circuits; bypass with a minimum 2.2uF capacitor to
PGnd. A 10uF capacitor is recommended.
