Ultra-Compact, High-Performance
DrMOS Device
Datasheet
Brief Description
Features
The ZSPM9000 DrMOS is a fully optimized, ultra-
compact, integrated MOSFET plus driver power-
stage solution for high-current, high-frequency,
synchronous buck DC-DC applications. The device
incorporates a driver IC, two power MOSFETs, and
a bootstrap Schottky diode in a thermally enhanced,
ultra-compact 6mmx6mm PQFN40 package.

Based on the Intel® 4.0 DrMOS standard
Internal 12V to 5V linear regulator (LDO)
High-current handling: up to 50A
High-performance copper-clip package
Tri-state 3.3V PWM input driver
Skip Mode (low-side gate turn off) input (SMOD#)
Warning flag for over-temperature conditions
Driver output disable function (DISB# pin)
With an integrated approach, the ZSPM9000’s com-
plete switching power stage is optimized for driver
and MOSFET dynamic performance, system induc-
tance, and power MOSFET RDS(ON). It uses innova-
tive high-performance MOSFET technology, which
dramatically reduces switch ringing, eliminating the
snubber circuit in most buck converter applications.
Internal pull-up and pull-down for SMOD# and
DISB# inputs, respectively

Integrated Schottky diode technology in the
low-side MOSFET
•
•
Integrated bootstrap Schottky diode
An innovative driver IC with reduced dead times and
propagation delays further enhances performance.
An internal 12V to 5V linear regulator enables the
ZSPM9000 to operate from a single 12V supply. A
thermal warning function (THWN) warns of potential
over-temperature situations. The ZSPM9000 also
incorporates features such as Skip Mode (SMOD)
for improved light-load efficiency and a tri-state 3.3V
pulse-width modulation (PWM) input for compatibility
with a wide range of PWM controllers.
Adaptive gate drive timing for shoot-through
protection

Under-voltage lockout (UVLO)
Optimized for switching frequencies up to 1MHz
Available Support
•
ZSPM8000-KIT: Closed Loop Evaluation Kit
combined for the ZSPM9000 and ZSPM1000
The ZSPM9000 DrMOS is ideally compatible with
IDT’s ZSPM1000, a leading-edge configurable digital
power-management system controller for non-
isolated point-of-load (POL) supplies.
