DATA SHEET
XPHASE3
TM
DDR & VTT CONTROL IC
DESCRIPTION
The IR3522 Control IC combined with IR3506
xPHASE3
TM
Phase ICs implements a full featured DDR3
power solution. The IR3522 provides control functions for both the VTT (single phase) and VDDR
(multiphase) power rails which can interfaces with any number of IR3506 ICs each driving and monitoring
TM
a single phase to power any number of DDR3 DIMMs. The
xPHASE3
architecture delivers a power
supply that is smaller, more flexible, and easier to design while providing higher efficiency than
conventional approaches.

PIN DESCRIPTION

PIN SYMBOL
SDA
PIN DESCRIPTION
SDA (Serial Data) is a bidirectional signal that is an input and open drain output for
both master (I
2
C controller) and slave (IR3522). SDA requires a pull resistor to a
bias voltage and should not be floated.
Input to provide bias to the Power Good output transistor directly from the converter
input voltage. Enables the Power Good output to assert even if there is no bias
supplied to the VCCL pin. Internal voltage clamp protects the pin. Do not exceed
100 uA of pull-up current.
Enable input. A logic low applied to this pin puts the IC into fault mode. A logic high
on the pin resets and enables the converter. Do not float this pin as the logic state
will be undefined.
Output 2 average current input from the output 2 phase IC(s).
Digital input to program bit 1 of the 2 bit address code with internal pull-up. Connect
to LGND for logic “0”, float for logic “1”
Digital input to program bit 2 of the 2 bit address code with internal pull-up. Connect
to LGND for logic “0”, float for logic “1”
Programs the output 2 constant converter output current limit through an external
resistor tied to VREF1 and an internal current source from this pin. Over-current
protection can be disabled by over sizing the resistor value to program the threshold
higher than IIN2 pin possible signal amplitude, but no greater than 5V (do not float
this pin as improper operation will occur).
Output of the output 2 error amplifier.
Inverting input to the output 2 error amplifier.
Output 2 remote sense amplifier output.
Output 2 remote sense amplifier input. Connect to output at the load.
Output 2 remote sense amplifier input. Connect to ground at the load.
Output 1 remote sense amplifier input. Connect to ground at the load.
Output 1 remote sense amplifier input. Connect to output at the load.
Output 1 remote sense amplifier output. Provides reference to Error Amp2.
Inverting input to the output 1 error amplifier.
Output of the output 1 error amplifier.
Programs the output 1 constant converter output current limit through an external
resistor tied to VREF1 and an internal current source from this pin. Over-current
protection can be disabled by over sizing the resistor value to program the threshold
higher than IIN2 pin possible signal amplitude, but no greater than 5V (do not float
this pin as improper operation will occur).
Reference voltage programmed by the I
2
C inputs and error amplifier non-inverting
input. Connect an external RC network to LGND to program dynamic VID slew rate
and provide compensation for the internal buffer amplifier.
Connect an external capacitor to LGND to program startup and Fault delay timing

PIN DESCRIPTION
Output 1 average current input from the output 1 phase IC(s). This pin is also used
to initialize Diode Emulation Mode in the phase IC(s).
Drives NMOS crowbar devices at VTT and VDDR rails.
Connect a resistor to LGND to program oscillator frequency and OCSET1, OCSET2,
and VREF bias currents. Oscillator frequency equals switching frequency per phase.
The pin voltage is 0.6V during normal operation.
Local Ground for internal circuitry and IC substrate connection.
Clock output at switching frequency multiplied by phase number. Connect to CLKIN
pins of phase ICs.
Phase clock output at switching frequency per phase. Connect to PHSIN pin of the
first phase IC.
Feedback input of phase clock. Connect to PHSOUT pin of the last phase IC.
Output of the voltage regulator, and power input for clock oscillator circuitry. Connect
a decoupling capacitor to LGND.
Digital input to program one of four power-up VREF1 VDD reference values.
Connect to LGND for logic “0”, float for logic “1”
Digital input to program one of four power-up VREF1 VDD reference values.
Connect to LGND for logic “0”, float for logic “1”
Open collector output that drives low during startup and under any external fault
condition. The Power Good function also monitors output voltages and this pin will
drive low if any of the voltage planes are outside of the specified limits. Connect
external pull-up.
SCL (Serial Clock) is an open drain output of the I
2
C controller and input to IR3522.
This pin requires an external bias voltage and should not be floated.
