FEATURES  
DESCRIPTION  
The IRU3055 is a 3-phase synchronous Buck controller  
Meets VRM 9.0 Specification  
3-Phase Controller with On-Board MOSFET Driver  
which provides high performance DC to DC converter for  
On-Board DAC programs the output voltage from high current applications.  
1.075V to 1.850V  
Loss-less Short Circuit Protection  
Programmable Frequency  
The IRU3055 controller IC is specifically designed to meet  
Intel and AMD specifications for the new microproces-  
Synchronous operation allows maximum efficiency sor requiring low voltage and high current.  
Minimum Part Count  
Soft-Start  
Power Good Function  
Hiccup Mode Current Limit  
The IRU3055 features under-voltage lockout for both 5V  
and 12V supplies, an external and programmable soft-  
start function as well as programming the oscillator fre-  
quency by using an external resistor.

ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS  
Unless otherwise specified, these specifications apply over VCL1=VCL23=VCH12=VCH3=12V, Vcc=5V and TA=0 to  
70°C. Typical values refer to TA=25°C. Low duty cycle pulse testing is used which keeps junction and case tem-  
peratures equal to the ambient temperature.

Compensation for error amplifier.  
This pin is connected directly to the output of the Core supply to provide feedback to the  
Error amplifier.

SS  
This pin provides the soft-start for the switching regulator. An internal current source  
charges an external capacitor that is connected from this pin to the ground which ramps  
up the outputs of the switching regulator, preventing the outputs from overshooting as  
well as limiting the input current. The second function of the Soft-Start cap is to provide  
long off time (HICCUP) for the synchronous MOSFET during current limiting.

IRU3055 is a 3-phase buck converter controller. For high  
current applications, multiple converters are usually con-  
nected in parallel to reduce the power capability for each  
individual converter as well as alleviate the thermal stress  
on each of the power devices. These individual convert-  
ers share a common output, but may have different input  
sources. Each individual converter operates at the same  
switching frequency but at a different phase. As a result,  
the effective input current and output current ripple are  
much smaller compared with a single-phase converter.  
Another benefit will be faster dynamic load responses.  
The block diagram of IRU3055 is shown in Figure 2. The  
3-phase oscillator provides a constant frequency and the  
three PWMs ramp signals with 120 degree phase shift.  
The three comparators and three PWM latches will gen-  
erate three PWM outputs to the drivers which are built  
inside the IC. A typical 3-phase PWM signal is shown in  
Figure 4.

One of advantages of the multi-phase converter is that

The inductor is selected based on the inductor current  
ripple, operation frequency and efficiency consideration.  
In general, a large inductor results in small output ripple  
and higher efficiency but big size. A small value inductor  
causes large current ripple and poor efficiency but small  
size. Generally, the inductor is selected based on the  
output current ripple. The optimum point is usually found  
between 20% and 50% ripple of output inductor current.

is shown as follows:  
There are several critical loops for IRU3055 controlled  
multi-phase converter. The loop by synchronous  
MOSFETs and input capacitor is the most critical loop  
and it should be minimized as small as possible. Put a  
small ceramic capacitor next to the drain of high side  
switch and source of low side switch. Put the input ca-  
pacitors to the high and low side switch as close as  
possible. The second loop is the gate of MOSFETs and  
the drivers from IRU3055. Because the IRU3055 includes  
the MOSFETs drivers inside, the signal path between  
driver to the gate of MOSFETs should be minimized.  
The trace should handle 1A transient current ability.

Component Connection  
• No data bus should be passing through the switching  
regulator especially close to the fast transition nodes  
such as PWM drivers or the inductor voltage.  
If possible, using four layer board, dedicate one layer  
to ground, another layer as power layer for the constant  
power input and output such as 5V, 12V, and 1.5V out-  
put. Connect all grounds to the ground plane using di-  
rect vias to the ground plane.  
Use large and low impedance/low inductance PCB  
plane to connect the high current path connections ei-  
ther using component side or the solder side. These  
connections include:  
(a) Input capacitor to the drain of high side MOSFET  
Q1, Q3 and Q5.  
(b) The interconnection between source of high side  
MOSFET such as Q1 and low side MOSFET such  
as Q2.  
(c) From drain of low side MOSFET to output Induc-  
tor .  
(d) From output inductor to output capacitor. Make  
sure the impedance from output inductor to output  
voltage slot (also the voltage feedback sensing point)  
are as identical or symmetrical as possible.  
(e) From each output capacitor to output slot.  
(f) From input inductor to input capacitor.  
Connect the rest of the components using the shortest  
trace possible.

Introduction to Intel Specification  
With this simple circuit, the output voltage will linearly  
decrease as load current increases. The output voltage  
will fall in Intel spec. The resistor ratio “c” will determine  
the slope of the voltage-current load line. The resistor  
ratios “d” and “e” determine the offset voltage.

5ms delay for a better illustration. When the voltage
