• Manufacturer Part Number: LTC3735
• Description: 2-Phase, High Efficiency DC/DC Controller for Intel Mobile CPUs
• Manufacturer: LINER [Linear Technology]

RUN/SS (Pin 16/Pin 15): Combination of Soft-Start,
Run Control Input and Short-Circuit Detection Timer. A
capacitor to ground at this pin sets the ramp time to full
current output. Forcing this pin below 1V causes the IC to
shut down all internal circuitry. All functions are disabled
in shutdown.
I
Regulator Compensation Point. Both current comparator’s
thresholds increase with this control voltage. The normal
voltage range of this pin is from 0V to 2.4V
RBOOT (Pin 18/Pin 17): Boot-Up Resistor Pin. Connect a
resistor from this pin to V
voltage during the initial boot-up.
VID0–VID5 (Pins 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24/Pins 18, 19, 20,
21, 22, 23): VID Control Logic Input Pins.
BG2, BG1 (Pins 25, 27/Pins 24, 26): High Current Gate
Drives for Bottom N-Channel MOSFETs. Voltage swing at
these pins is from ground to PV
PGND (Pin 26/Pin 25): Driver Power Ground. Connect
to sources of bottom N-channel MOSFETs and the (–)
terminals of C
PV
control circuits and on-chip gate drivers are powered from
this voltage source. Decouple to PGND with a minimum of
4.7µF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitor placed directly adjacent
to the IC.

SW2, SW1 (Pins 29, 32/Pins 28, 32): Switch Node Con-
nections to Inductors. Voltage swing at these pins is from a
Schottky diode (external) voltage drop below ground to V
TG2, TG1 (Pins 30, 33/Pins 29, 33): High Current Gate
Drives for Top N-Channel MOSFETs. These are the outputs
of floating drivers with a voltage swing equal to PV
superimposed on the switch node voltage SW.
BOOST2, BOOST1 (Pins 31, 34/Pins 30, 34): Bootstrapped
Supplies to the Topside Floating Drivers. External capaci-
tors are connected between the BOOST and SW pins, and
Schottky diodes are connected between the BOOST and
PV
PGOOD (Pin 35/Pin 35): Power Good Indicator Output.
This pin is open drain when output is within ±10% of its
set point. When output is not within the ±10% window,
this pin is pulled to ground. An internal timer watches
over VID, state transitions overvoltage or undervoltage
conditions, then masks PGOOD from going low for 110µs.
MCH_PG (Pin 36/Pin 36): MCH Power Good Input. Output
voltage remains V
tion of MCH_PG. This delay is only sensitive to the rising
edge of the MCH_PG logic signal.
SGND (Exposed Pad Pin 39, UHF Only): Signal Ground.
Connect to Pins 7 and 25. The Exposed Pad must be
soldered to the PCB.
