Application Note 50 Implementing the RC5050 and RC5051 DC-DC Conver ters on Pentium ® Pr o Motherboar ds www .fair childsemi.com Intr oduction This document describes how to implement a switching v o.
AN50 APPLICATION NOTE 2 T able 2. Intel Pentium Pr o and OverDrive ® Processor P ower Specifications Notes: 1. Maximum power values are measured at typical V CC P to take into account the thermal time constant of the CPU package. 2. Flexible motherboard specifications are recommendations only.
APPLICATION NOTE AN50 3 I/O Controls In addition to the V oltage Identification, there are sev eral sig- nals that control the DC-DC con verter or provide feedback from the DC-DC con verter to the CPU. They are Po wer- Good (PWRGD), Output Enable (OUTEN), and Upgrade Present (UP#).
AN50 APPLICATION NOTE 4 The HIDR V driver has a po wer supply , VCCQP , supplied from a 12V source as illustrated in Figure 2. The resulting voltage is suf ficient to provide the gate to source voltage to the external MOSFET that is required to achie ve a low R DS,ON .
APPLICATION NOTE AN50 5 Short Circuit Protection A current sense methodology is implemented to disable the output driv e signal to the MOSFET(s) when an over-current condition is detected. The v oltage drop created by the output current flowing across a sense resistor is presented to an internal comparator .

APPLICATION NOTE AN50 7 MOSFET Selection Cosiderations MOSFET Selection This application requires N-channel Logic Lev el Enhance- ment Mode Field Effect Transistors. Desired characteristics are as follows: • Low Static Drain-Source On-Resistance, R DS,ON < 37 m Ω (lower is better) • Low g ate driv e voltage, V GS ≤ 4.
AN50 APPLICATION NOTE 8 T wo MOSFETs in parallel. W e recommend two MOSFETs used in parallel instead of one single MOSFET . The following significant adv antages are realized using two MOSFETs in parallel: • Significant reduction of P ower dissipation .
APPLICATION NOTE AN50 9 Con ver ter Efficiency Losses due to parasitic resistance in the switches, coil, and sense resistor dominate at high load-current lev el.
AN50 APPLICATION NOTE 10 Selecting the Inductor The inductor is one of the most critical components to be selected for a DC-DC con verter application. The critical parameters are inductance (L), maximum DC current (I O ), and DC coil resistance (R l ).
APPLICATION NOTE AN50 11 Therefore, for load current of 14.5A, the peak current through the inductor , I pk , is found to be approximately 15.5A: Therefore, the short circuit detection threshold must be at least 16.5A. The next step is to determine the v alue of the sense resistor .
AN50 APPLICATION NOTE 12 Embedded Sense Resistor (PC T race Resistor) Embedded PC trace resistors hav e the advantage of near zero cost implementation.
APPLICATION NOTE AN50 13 tion. The embedded sense resistor allows the user to choose a plus or a minus delta resistance tap to offset an y large sheet resisti vity change. In this design, the center tap yields 6m Ω , the left tap yields 6.7m Ω , and the right tap yields 5.

APPLICATION NOTE AN50 15 FET . Low Equi valent Series Resistance (ESR) capacitors are best suited for this type of application. Incorrect selection can hinder the con verter's overall performance. The input capacitor should be placed as close to the drain of the FET as possible to reduce the effect of ringing caused by long trace lengths.
AN50 APPLICATION NOTE 16 PCB La yout Guidelines and Considerations PCB Lay out Guidelines • Placement of the MOSFETs relativ e to the RC5050 is critical. Place the MOSFETs (M1 & M2) so that the trace length of the HIDR V pin from the RC5050 to the FET gates is minimized.
APPLICATION NOTE AN50 17 In general, all of the noisy switching lines should be kept aw ay from the quiet analog section of the RC5050. That is, traces that connect to pins 12 and 13 (HIDR V and VCCQP) should be kept far a way from the traces that con- nect to pins 1 through 5, and pin 16.
