RT3613EB
3-Phase PWM Controller with Dual Integrated Drivers for
IMVP9 CPU Core Power Supply
General Description
Features
Intel IMVP9 Serial VID Interface Compatible Power
The RT3613EB is a 3/2/1 phase synchronous buck
controller designed to meet Intel IMVP9 compatible CPU
specification with a serial VID control interface. The
RT3613EB adoptsG-NAVPTM (GreenNativeAVP) which
is Richtek's proprietary topology derived from finite DC
gain of EA amplifier with current mode control, making it
easy to set the droop to meet all Intel CPU requirements
of AVP (Adaptive Voltage Positioning). Based on the G-
NAVPTM topology, the RT3613EB features a new
generation of quick response mechanism (Adaptive Quick
Response,AQR) to optimizeAVP performance during load
transient and reduce output capacitors. The RT3613EB
supports mode transition function with various operating
states. A serial VID (SVID) interface is built in the
RT3613EB to communicate with Intel IMVP9 compliant
CPU. The RT3613EB supports VID on-the-fly function with
three different slew rates: Fast, Slow and Decay. By
utilizing theG-NAVPTM topology, the operating frequency
of the RT3613EB varies with VID, load and input voltage
to further enhance the efficiency even in CCM. Moreover,
the G-NAVPTM with CCRCOT (Constant Current Ripple
COT) technology provides superior output voltage ripple
over the entire input/output range. The built-in high accuracy
DAC converts the SVID code ranging from 0V to 2.74V
with 10mV per step. The RT3613EB integrates a high
accuracyADC for platform and function settings, such as
ICCMAX, switching frequency, over-current threshold and
AQR trigger level. The RT3613EB provides VR Ready and
thermal indicators. It also features complete fault
protection functions including over-voltage (OV), under-
voltage (UV), over-current (OC) and under-voltage lockout
(UVLO).
