PIN ASSIGNMENT
Pin No. Pin Name Description
1 NC No Connect
2 NC No Connect
3 NC No Connect
4 NC No Connect
5 EN Power Supply Enable Input. Pulling this pin to GND disables the PWM outputs and pulls the PWRGD output low.
6 GND Ground. All internal biasing and the logic output signals of the device are referenced to this ground.
7 PSI_SET This input sets the number of phases enabled during PSI. Pulling this input high means that two phases,
Phases 1 and Phase 4 (when 6 phases are enabled during normal operation), are enabled during PSI
.
Grounding this pin means only Phase 1 is enabled during PSI.
8 LLSET Output Loadline Programming Input. This pin can be connected directly to CSCOMP or it can be connected to
the centerpoint of a resistor divider between CSCOMP and CSREF. Connecting LLSET to CSREF disables
the loadline.
9 IMON Total Current Output Pin.
10 TTSENSE VR Temperature Sense Input. An NTC thermistor between this pin and GND is used to remotely sense the
temperature at the desired thermal monitoring point.
11 VRHOT VR HOT Output. Open drain output that signals when the temperature at the monitoring point connected to
TTSENSE exceeds the VRHOT temperature threshold.
12 IREF Current Reference Input. An external resistor from this pin to ground sets the reference current for I
FB
,
IILIMFS, and ITH(X).
13 RT Frequency Setting Resistor Input. An external resistor connected between this pin and GND sets the oscillator
frequency of the device.
14 RAMPADJ PWM Ramp Current Input. An external resistor from the converter input voltage to this pin sets the internal
PWM ramp.
15 TRDET Transient Detect. This output is asserted low whenever a load release is detected
16 FBRTN Feedback Return. VID DAC and error amplifier reference for remote sensing of the output voltage.
17 COMP Error Amplifier Output and Compensation Point.
18 FB Feedback Input. Error amplifier input for remote sensing of the output voltage. An external resistor between
this pin and the output voltage sets the no load offset point.
19 CSREF Current Sense Reference Voltage Input. The voltage on this pin is used as the reference for the current sense
amplifier and the power−good and crowbar functions. This pin should be connected to the common point of
the output inductors.
20 CSSUM Current Sense Summing Node. External resistors from each switch node to this pin sum the average inductor
currents together to measure the total output current.
21 CSCOMP Current Sense Compensation Point. A resistor and capacitor from this pin to CSSUM determines the gain of
the current sense amplifier and the positioning loop response time.
22 ILIMFS Current Sense and Limit Scaling Pin. An external resistor from this pin to CSCOMP sets the internal current
sensing signal for current−limit and IMON.
23 ODN Output Disable Logic Output for PSI operation. This pin is actively pulled low when PSI is low, otherwise it
functions in the same way as OD1
.
24 OD1 Output Disable Logic Output. This pin is actively pulled low when the EN input is low or when V
CC
is below its
UVLO threshold to signal to the Driver IC that the driver high−side and low−side outputs should go low.
25 to 30 SW6 to
SW1
Current Balance Inputs. Inputs for measuring the current level in each phase. The SW pins of unused phases
should be left open.
31 to 36 PWM6 to
PWM1
Logic−Level PWM Outputs. Each output is connected to the input of an external MOSFET driver such as the
ADP3121. Connecting PWM6 to V
CC
disables PWM6, connecting PWM5 to V
CC
disables PWM5 and PWM6,
etc. This means the ADP4100 can be setup to operate as a 1− 2−, 3−, 4−, 5−, or 6−phase controller.
37 V
CC
Supply Voltage for the Device. A 340 W resistor should be placed between the 12 V system supply and the
V
CC
pin. The internal shunt regulator maintains V
CC
= 5.0 V.
38 to 45 VID7 to
VID0
Voltage Identification DAC Inputs. These eight pins are pulled down to GND, providing a logic zero if left open.
When in normal operation mode, the DAC output programs the FB regulation voltage from 0.375 V to 1.6 V.
46 PSI Power State Indicator. Pulling this pin low places the controller in lower power state operation.
47 PWRGD Power−Good Output. Open−drain output that signals when the output voltage is outside of the proper
operating range.
48 VCC3 3.3 V Power Supply Output. A capacitor from this pin to ground provided decoupling for the interval 3.3V LDO.
