MP2884A
Digital, Multi-Phase PWM Controller
with PMBus and PWM-VID
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The MP2884A is a digital, multi-phase, pulse-
width modulation (PWM) controller with digital
PWM-VID interface compatible with NVIDIA’s
Open VReg specification. The MP2884A can
work with MPS’s Intelli-Phase products to
complete the multi-phase voltage regulator (VR)
solution with minimal external components. The
MP2884A can be configured with up to 4-phase
operation.
Programmable Multi-Phase up to Four
Phases
PWM-VID Interface Compatible with NVIDIA
Open VReg Specification
PMBus/I2C Compliant (1MHz Bus Speed)
Pin Programmable for PMBus Address
Built-In EEPROM to Store Custom
Configurations
Switching Frequency Range 200kHz to
5MHz
Automatic Loop Compensation
Fewer External Components than
Conventional Analog Controller
Best Transient Performance with Non-
Linear Digital Control
Flexible Phase Assignment
Auto-Phase Shedding to Improve Overall
Efficiency
The MP2884A provides an on-chip EEPROM to
store and restore device configurations. Device
configurations and fault parameters can be
easily programmed or monitored via the
PMBus/I2C interface. The MP2884A can
monitor and report the output current through
the CS output from the Intelli-Phase products.
The MP2884A is based on a unique, digital,
multi-phase, non-linear control and provides
fast transient response to the load transient with
minimal output capacitors. With only one
power-loop control method for both steady state
