ZY7120 is a step-down converter, thus the output voltage is always lower than the input voltage as show in Figure 1.  
At the negative output current (bus terminator mode) efficiency of the ZY7120 degrades resulting in increased internal power dissipation.  
2
Therefore maximum allowable negative current under specific conditions is 20% lower than the current determined from the derating curves  
shown in paragraph 5.5.

Figure 25. Block Diagram of Typical Multiple Output Application with Digital Power Manager and I2C Interface  
The block diagram of a typical application of ZY7120 point-of-load converters (POL) is shown in Figure 25. The  
system includes multiple POLs and a ZM7000 series Digital Power Manager (DPM). All POLs are connected to  
the DPM and to each other via a single-wire SD (sync/data) line. The line provides synchronization of all POLs to  
the master clock generated by the DPM and simultaneously performs bidirectional data transfer between POLs  
and the DPM. Each POL has a unique 5-bit address programmed by grounding respective address pins. To  
enable the current share, CS pins of POLs connected in parallel are linked together.  
There are three groups of POLs in the application, groups A, B, and group C. A group is defined as a number of  
POLs interconnected via OK pins. Grouping of POLs enables users to program, control, and monitor multiple  
POLs simultaneously and execute advanced fault management schemes.  
The complete schematic of the application is shown in Figure 26.

Output Voltage Setpoint  
VOUT  
The output voltage programming range is from 0.5V  
to 5.5V. Within this range, there are 256 predefined  
voltage setpoints. To improve resolution of the  
output voltage settings, the voltage range is divided  
into three sub-ranges as shown in Table 2.

Increased headroom allows tolerating larger voltage  
deviations. For example, the step load change from  
light to heavy load will cause the output voltage to  
drop. If the optimal voltage positioning is utilized, the  
output voltage will stay within the regulation window.  
Otherwise, the output voltage will drop below the  
lower regulation limit. To compensate for the voltage  
drop external output capacitance will need to be  
added, thus increasing cost and complexity of the  
system.  
8.1.2  
Output Voltage Margining  
If the output voltage needs to be varied by a certain  
percentage, the margining function can be utilized.  
The margining can be programmed in the GUI  
Output Configuration window or directly via the I2C  
bus using high level commands as described in the  
‘”DPM Programming Manual”.  
In order to properly margin POLs that are connected  
in parallel, the POLs must be members of one of the  
Parallel Buses.  
The effect of optimal voltage positioning is shown in  
Figure 30 and Figure 31. In this case, switching  
output load causes large peak-to-peak deviation of  
the output voltage. By programming load regulation,  
the peak to peak deviation is dramatically reduced.  
Refer to the GUI System  
Configuration Window shown in Figure 55.  
8.1.3  
Optimal Voltage Positioning  
Optimal voltage positioning increases the voltage  
regulation window by properly positioning the output  
voltage setpoint. Positioning is determined by the  
load regulation that can be programmed in the GUI  
Output Configuration window shown in Figure 27 or  
directly via the I2C bus by writing into the CLS  
register shown in Figure 38.  
Figure 29 illustrates optimal voltage positioning  
concept. If no load regulation is programmed, the  
headroom (voltage differential between the output  
voltage setpoint and  
a
regulation limit) is  
approximately half of the voltage regulation window.  
When load regulation is programmed, the output  
voltage will decrease as the output current  
increases, so the VI characteristic will have a  
negative slope. Therefore, by properly selecting the  
operating point, it is possible to increase the  
headroom as shown in the picture.

8.2 Sequencing and Tracking  
Turn-on delay, turn-off delay, and rising and falling  
output voltage slew rates can be programmed in the  
GUI Sequencing/Tracking window shown in Figure  
32 or directly via the I2C bus by writing into the DON,  
DOF, and TC registers, respectively. The registers  
are shown in Figure 33, Figure 34, and Figure 36.  
Turn-off delay is defined as an interval from the  
application of the Turn-Off command until the output  
voltage reaches zero (if the falling slew rate is  
programmed) or until both high side and low side  
switches are turned off (if the slew rate is not  
programmed). Therefore, for the slew rate controlled  
turn-off the ramp-down time is included in the turn-off  
delay as shown in Figure 35.

below.

For proper operation TD shall be greater than zero.

If the falling slew rate control is not utilized, the turn-  
off delay only determines an interval from the  
application of the Turn-Off command until both high  
side and low side switches are turned off. In this  
case, the output voltage ramp-down process is  
determined by load parameters.

8.2.3  
Rising and Falling Slew Rates  
The output voltage tracking is accomplished by  
programming the rising and falling slew rates of the  
output voltage. To achieve programmed slew rates,  
the output voltage is being changed in 12.5mV steps  
where duration of each step determines the slew  
rate. For example, ramping up a 1.0V output with a  
slew rate of 0.5V/ms will require 80 steps duration of  
25µs each.

4: corresponds to -2.0V/ms  
5: corresponds to -5.0V/ms  
6: corresponds to –8.3V/ms  
7: corresponds to –8.3V/ms  
Duration of each voltage step is calculated by  
dividing the master clock frequency generated by the  
DPM.  
Since all POLs in the system are  
Figure 36. Tracking Configuration Register TC  
synchronized to the master clock, the matching of  
voltage slew rates of different outputs is very  
accurate as it can be seen in Figure 11 and Figure  
16.  
8.3 Protections  
ZY7120 Series converters have a comprehensive set  
of programmable protections. The set includes the  
output over- and undervoltage protections,  
overcurrent protection, overtemperature protection,  
tracking protection, overtemperature warning, and  
Power Good signal. Status of protections is stored in  
the ST register shown in Figure 37.  
During the turn on process, a POL not only delivers  
current required by the load (ILOAD), but also charges  
the load capacitance. The charging current can be  
determined from the equation below:

the ZY7120. If the condition is not met, then the  
overcurrent protection will be triggered during the  
turn-on process. To avoid this, dVR/dt and the  
overcurrent protection threshold should be  
programmed to meet the condition above.

If the non-latching protection is selected, a POL will  
attempt to restart every 130ms until the condition  
that triggered the protection is removed. When  
restarting, the output voltages follow tracking and  
sequencing settings.  
In addition, a user can change type of protections  
(latching or non-latching) or disable certain  
protections. These settings are programmed in the  
GUI Fault Management window shown in Figure 40  
or directly via the I2C by writing into the PC1 register  
shown in Figure 41.  
If the latching type is selected, a POL will turn off and  
stay off. The POL can be turned on after 130ms, if  
the condition that caused the fault is removed and  
the respective bit in the ST register was cleared, or  
the Turn On command was recycled, or the input  
voltage was recycled.

3V to 13.2V Input 0.5V to 5.5V Output  
All protections can be classified into three groups  
based on their effect on system operation: warnings,  
faults, and errors.  
8.3.2  
Faults  
This group includes overcurrent, overtemperature,  
undervoltage, and tracking protections. Triggering  
any protection in this group will turn off the POL.  
8.3.1  
Warnings  
This group includes Overtemperature Warning and  
Power Good Signal. The warnings do not turn off  
POLs but rather generate signals that can be  
transmitted to a host controller via the I2C bus.  
8.3.2.1  
Overcurrent Protection  
Overcurrent protection is active whenever the output  
voltage of the POL exceeds the prebias voltage (if  
any). When the output current reaches the OC  
threshold, the output voltage will start decreasing.  
As soon as the output voltage decreases below the  
undervoltage protection threshold, the OC fault  
signal is generated, the POL turns off and the OC bit  
in the register ST is changed to 0. Both high side  
and low side switches of the POL are turned off  
instantly (fast turn-off).  
8.3.1.1  
Overtemperature Warning  
The Overtemperature Warning is generated when  
temperature of the controller exceeds 120°C. The  
Overtemperature Warning changes the PT bit of the  
status register ST to 0 and sends the signal to the  
DPM.  
Reporting is enabled in the GUI Fault  
Management window or directly via the I2C by writing  
into the PC3 register shown in Figure 43. When the  
temperature falls below 117°C, the PT bit is cleared  
and the Overtemperature Warning is removed.  
The temperature compensation is added to keep the  
OC  
threshold  
approximately  
constant  
at  
temperatures above room temperature. Note that  
the temperature compensation can be disabled in  
the GUI Output Configuration window or directly via  
the I2C by writing into the CLS register. However, it  
is recommended to keep the temperature  
compensation enabled.  
8.3.1.2  
Power Good  
Power Good is an open collector output that is pulled  
low, if the output voltage is outside of the Power  
Good window. The window is formed by the Power  
Good High threshold that is equal to 110% of the  
output voltage and the Power Good Low threshold  
that can be programmed at 90 or 95% of the output  
voltage.  
8.3.2.2  
Undervoltage Protection  
The undervoltage protection is only active during  
steady state operation of the POL to prevent  
nuisance tripping. If the output voltage decreases  
below the UV threshold and there is no OC fault, the  
UV fault signal is generated, the POL turns off, and  
the UV bit in the register ST is changed to 0. The  
output voltage is ramped down according to  
sequencing and tracking settings (regular turn-off).  
The Power Good protection is only enabled after the  
output voltage reaches its steady state level. The  
PGOOD pin is pulled low during transitions of the  
output voltage from one level to other as shown in  
Figure 42.  
The Power Good Warning pulls the Power Good pin  
low and changes the PG bit of the status register ST  
to 0. It sends the signal to the DPM, if the reporting  
is enabled. When the output voltage returns within  
the Power Good window, the PG pin is pulled high,  
the PG bit is cleared and the Power Good Warning is  
removed. The Power Good pin can also be pulled  
low by an external circuit to initiate the Power Good  
Warning.  
8.3.2.3  
Overtemperature Protection  
Overtemperature protection is active whenever the  
POL is powered up. If temperature of the controller  
exceeds 130°C, the OT fault is generated, POL turns  
off, and the OT bit in the register ST is changed to 0.  
The output voltage is ramped down according to  
sequencing and tracking settings (regular turn-off).  
If non-latching OTP is programmed, the POL will  
restart as soon as the temperature of the controller  
decreases below the Overtemperature Warning  
threshold of 120°C.  
Note: To retrieve status information, Status Monitoring in the GUI  
POL Group Configuration Window should be enabled (refer  
to Digital Power Manager Data Sheet). The DPM will  
retrieve the status information from each POL on  
continuous basis.

Tracking Protection  
value of the difference exceeds 250mV, the tracking  
fault signal is generated, the POL turns off, and the  
TR bit in the register ST is changed to 0. Both high  
side and low side switches of the POL are turned off  
instantly (fast turn-off).  
Tracking protection is active only when the output  
voltage is ramping up. The purpose of the protection  
is to ensure that the voltage differential between  
multiple rails being tracked does not exceed 250mV.  
This protection eliminates the need for external  
clamping diodes between different voltage rails  
which are frequently recommended by ASIC  
manufacturers.  
The tracking protection can be disabled, if it  
contradicts requirements of a particular system (for  
example turning into high capacitive load where  
rising slew rate is not important). It can be disabled  
in the GUI Fault Management window or directly via  
the I2C bus by writing into the PC1 register.  
When the tracking protection is enabled, the POL  
continuously compares actual value of the output  
voltage to its programmed value as defined by the  
output voltage and its rising slew rate. If absolute

8.3.3  
Errors  
The group includes overvoltage protection and the  
phase voltage error. The phase voltage error is not  
available in ZY7120.  
The OV threshold can be programmed from 110% to  
130% of the output voltage setpoint, but not lower  
than 1.0V.  
8.3.3.1  
Overvoltage Protection  
The overvoltage protection is active whenever the  
output voltage of the POL exceeds the pre-bias  
voltage (if any). If the output voltage exceeds the  
overvoltage protection threshold, the overvoltage  
error signal is generated, the POL turns off, and the  
OV bit in the register ST is changed to 0. The high  
side switch is turned off instantly, and simultaneously  
the low side switch is turned on to ensure reliable  
protection of sensitive loads. The low side switch  
provides low impedance path to quickly dissipate  
8.3.4  
Faults and Errors Propagation  
The feature adds flexibility to the fault management  
scheme by giving users control over propagation of  
fault signals within and outside of the system. The  
propagation means that a fault in one POL can be  
programmed to turn off other POLs and devices in  
the system, even if they are not directly affected by  
the fault.

8.3.4.1  
Grouping of POLs  
Z-Series POLs can be arranged in several groups to  
simplify fault management. A group of POLs is  
defined as a number of POLs with interconnected  
OK pins. A group can include from 1 to 32 POLs. If  
fault propagation within a group is desired, the  
propagation bit needs to be checked in the GUI Fault  
Management Window. The parameters can also be  
programmed directly via the I2C bus by writing into  
the PC3 register shown in Figure 43.  
When propagation is enabled, the faulty POL pulls its  
OK pin low. A low OK line initiates turn-off of other  
POLs in the group.  
Figure 44. Fault and Error Propagation Window  
In this case low OK line will signal DPM to pull other  
OK lines low to initiate shutdown of other POLs as  
programmed in the GUI Fault and Error Propagation  
window. If an error is propagated, the DPM can also  
generate commands to turn off a front end (a DC-DC  
converter generating the intermediate bus voltage)  
and trigger an optional crowbar protection to  
accelerate removal of the IBV voltage.

8.3.4.2  
Propagation Process  
Propagation of a fault (OCP, UVP, OTP, and TRP)  
initiates regular turn-off of other POLs. The faulty  
POL in this case performs either the regular or the  
fast turn-off depending on a specific fault as  
described in section 8.3.2.

1 = enabled  
0 = disabled  
OTP: Overtemperature fault propagation  
1 = enabled  
0 = disabled  
OCP: Overcurrent fault propagation  
1 = enabled  
0 = disabled  
Propagation of an error initiates fast turn-off of other  
POLs. The faulty POL performs the fast turn-off and  
turns on its low side switch.  
UVP: Undervoltage fault propagation  
1 = enabled  
0 = disabled  
OVP: Overvoltage error propagation  
1 = enabled  
0 = disabled  
Example of the fault propagation is shown in Figure  
45 - Figure 46. In this three-output system (refer to  
the block diagram in Figure 25), the POL powering  
the output V3 (Ch 1 in the picture) encounters the  
undervoltage fault after the turn-on. When the fault  
propagation is not enabled, the POL turns off and  
generates the UV fault signal. Because the UV fault  
triggers the regular turn off, the POL meets its turn-  
off delay and falling slew rate settings during the  
turn-ff process as shown in Figure 45. Since the UV  
fault is programmed to be non-latching, the POL will  
attempt to restart every 130ms, repeating the  
process described above until the condition causing  
the undervoltage is removed.  
PVP: Phase voltage error propagation  
1 = enabled  
0 = disabled  
Figure 43. Protection Configuration Register PC3  
In addition, the OK lines can be connected to the  
DPM to facilitate propagation of faults and errors  
between groups. One DPM can control up to 4  
independent groups. To enable fault propagation  
between groups, the respective bit needs to be  
checked in the GUI Fault and Error Propagation  
window shown in Figure 44.  
If the fault propagation between groups is enabled,  
the POL powering the output V3 pulls its OK line low  
and the DPM propagates the signal to the POL  
powering the output V1 that belongs to other group.

3V to 13.2V Input 0.5V to 5.5V Output  
The POL powering the output V1 (Ch3 in the picture)  
executes the regular turn-off. Since both V1 and V3  
have the same delay and slew rate settings they will  
continue to turn off and on synchronously every  
130ms as shown in Figure 46 until the condition  
causing the undervoltage is removed. The POL  
powering the output V2 continues to ramp up until it  
reaches its steady state level.  
130ms is the interval from the instant of time when  
the output voltage ramps down to zero until the  
output voltage starts to ramp up again. Therefore,  
the 130ms hiccup interval is guaranteed regardless  
of the turn-off delay setting.

The switching frequency can be programmed in the

shown in Figure 48. Note that the content of the  
register can be changed only when the POL is

Switching actions of all POLs connected to the SD  
line are synchronized to the master clock generated  
by the DPM. Each POL is equipped with a PLL and  
a frequency divider so they can operate at multiples  
(including fractional) of the master clock frequency  
as programmed by a user. The POL converters can  
operate at 500 kHz, 750 kHz, and 1 MHz. Although  
synchronized, switching frequencies of different

Interleave  
Interleave is defined as a phase delay between the  
synchronizing slope of the master clock on the SD  
pin and PWM signal of a POL. The interleave can  
be programmed in the GUI PWM Controller window  
or directly via the I2C bus by writing into the INT  
register.  
POLs are independent of each other.  
It is  
permissible to mix POLs operating at different  
frequencies in one system. It allows optimizing  
efficiency and transient response of each POL in the  
system individually.  
Every POL generates switching noise.  
If no  
interleave is programmed, all POLs in the system  
switch simultaneously and noise reflected to the  
input source from all POLs is added together as  
shown in Figure 49.

Figure 50 shows the input voltage noise of the three-  
output system with programmed interleave. Instead  
of all three POLs switching at the same time as in  
the previous example, the POLs V1, V2, and V3  
switch at 0°, 123.75°, and 247.5°, respectively.  
Noise is spread evenly across the switching cycle  
resulting in more than 1.5 times reduction. To  
achieve similar noise reduction without the interleave  
will require the addition of an external LC filter.  
Figure 52. Output Voltage Noise, Full Load, 180° Interleave  
The ZY7120 interleave feature is similar to that of  
multiphase converters, however, unlike in the case of  
multiphase converters, interleave does not have to  
be equal to 360/N, where N is the number of POLs in  
a system. ZY7120 interleave is independent of the  
number of POLs in  
a
system and is fully  
programmable in 11.25° steps. It allows maximum  
output noise reduction by intelligently spreading  
switching energy.  
Figure 50. Input Voltage Noise with Interleave  
Similar noise reduction can be achieved on the  
output of POLs connected in parallel. Figure 51 and  
Figure 52 show the output noise of two ZY7120s  
connected in parallel without and with 180°  
interleave, respectively. Resulting noise reduction is  
more than 2 times and is equivalent to doubling  
switching frequency or adding extra capacitance on  
the output of the POLs.  
8.4.3  
Duty Cycle Limit  
The ZY7120 is a step-down converter therefore VOUT  
is always less than VIN. The relationship between  
the two parameters is characterized by the duty  
cycle and can be estimated from the following  
equation:  
VOUT  
,
DC =  
VIN.MIN  
Where, DC is the duty cycle, VOUT is the required  
maximum output voltage (including margining),  
VIN.MIN is the minimum input voltage.  
It is good practice to limit the maximum duty cycle of  
the PWM controller to a somewhat higher value  
compared to the steady-state duty cycle as  
expressed by the above equation. This will further  
protect the output from excessive voltages. The duty  
cycle limit can be programmed in the GUI PWM  
Controller window or directly via the I2C bus by  
writing into the DCL register shown in Figure 53.

To speed up the PWM response in case of heavy  
dynamic loads, the duty cycle can be forced either to  
0 or the duty cycle limit depending on the polarity of  
the transient. This function is equivalent to having  
two comparators defining a window around the  
output voltage setpoint. When an error signal is  
inside the window, it will produce gradual duty cycle  
change proportional to the error signal. If the error  
signal goes outside the window (usually due to large  
output current steps), the duty cycle will change to its  
limit in one switching cycle. In most cases this will  
significantly improve transient response of the  
controller, reducing amount of required external  
capacitance.

Positions of poles and zeroes are determined by  
coefficients of the digital filter. The filter is  
characterized by four numerator coefficients (C0, C1,  
C2, C3) and three denominator coefficients (B1, B2,  
B3). The coefficients are automatically calculated  
when desired frequency of poles and zeros is  
entered in the GUI PWM Controller window. The  
coefficients are stored in the C0H, C0L, C1H, C1L,  
C2H, C2L, C3H, C3L, B1, B2, and B3 registers.  
Under certain circumstances, usually when the  
maximum duty cycle limit significantly exceeds its  
nominal value, the ADC saturation can lead to the  
overcompensation of the output error.  
The  
phenomenon manifests itself as low frequency  
oscillations on the output of the POL. It can usually  
be reduced or eliminated by disabling the ADC  
saturation or limiting the maximum duty cycle to 120-  
140% of the calculated value. It is not recommended  
to use ADC saturation for output voltages higher  
than 2.0V.  
Note: The GUI automatically transforms zero and pole  
frequencies into the digital filter coefficients. It is strongly  
recommended to use the GUI to determine the filter  
coefficients.  
Programming feedback loop compensation allows  
optimizing POL performance for various application  
conditions. For example, increase in bandwidth can  
significantly improve dynamic response.  
The ADC saturation feedforward can be  
programmed in the GUI PWM Controller window or  
directly via the I2C bus by writing into the DCL  
register.  
8.5 Current Share

Feedback Loop Compensation  
Feedback loop compensation can be programmed in  
the GUI PWM Controller window by setting  
frequency of poles and zeros of the transfer function.  
The POL converters are equipped with the digital  
current share function. To activate the current share,  
interconnect the CS pins of the POLs connected in  
parallel. The digital signal transmitted over the CS

line sets output currents of all POLs to the same  
level.  
The output voltage is measured at the output sense  
pins, output current is measured using the ESR of  
the output inductor and temperature is measured by  
the thermal sensor built into the controller IC. Output  
current readings are adjusted based on temperature  
readings to compensate for the change of ESR of  
the inductor with temperature.  
When POLs are connected in parallel, they must be  
included in the same parallel bus in the GUI System  
Configuration window shown in Figure 55. In this  
case, the GUI automatically copies parameters of  
one POL onto all POLs connected to the parallel  
bus. It makes it impossible to configure different  
performance parameters for POLs connected in  
parallel except for interleave and load regulation  
settings that are independent. The interleave allows  
to reduce and move the output noise of the  
converters connected in parallel to higher  
frequencies as shown in Figure 51 and Figure 52.  
The load regulation allows controlling the current  
share loop gain in case of small signal oscillations. It  
is recommended to always add a small amount of  
load regulation to one of the converters connected in  
parallel to reduce loop gain and therefore improve  
stability.  
An 8-Bit Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) converts  
the output voltage, output current, and temperature  
into a digital signal to be transmitted via the serial  
interface. The ADC allows a minimum sampling  
frequency of 1 kHz for all three values.  
Monitored parameters are stored in registers (VOM,  
IOM, and TMON) that are continuously updated. If  
the Retrieve Monitoring bits in the GUI Group  
Configuration window shown in Figure 56 are  
checked, those registers are being copied into the  
ring buffer located in the DPM. Contents of the ring  
buffer can be displayed in the GUI IBS Monitoring  
Window shown in Figure 57 or it can be read directly  
via the I2C bus using high and low level commands  
as described in the ‘”DPM Programming Manual”.  
8.6 Performance Parameters Monitoring  
The POL converters can monitor their own  
performance parameters such as output voltage,  
output current, and temperature.
