Dynamic VID
Modern microprocessors need to make changes to their
core voltage as part of normal operation. They direct the
core-voltage regulator to do this by making changes to the
VID inputs during regulator operation. The power
management solution is required to monitor the DAC inputs
and respond to on-the-fly VID changes in a controlled
manner. Supervising the safe output voltage transition within
the DAC range of the processor without discontinuity or
disruption is a necessary function of the core-voltage
regulator.
In order to ensure the smooth transition of output voltage
during VID change, a VID step change smoothing network,
composed of R
used. The selection of R
voltage as detailed above in Output-Voltage Offset
Programming. The selection of C

Operation Initialization
Prior to converter initialization, proper conditions must exist
on the enable inputs and VCC. When the conditions are met,
the controller begins soft-start. Once the output voltage is
within the proper window of operation, VR_RDY asserts
logic high.
Enable and Disable
While in shutdown mode, the PWM outputs are held in a
high-impedance state to assure the drivers remain off. The
following input conditions must be met before the ISL6326B
is released from shutdown mode.

power-on reset (POR) rising threshold. Once this
threshold is reached, proper operation of all aspects of
the ISL6326B is guaranteed. Hysteresis between the
rising and falling thresholds assure that once enabled,
the ISL6326B will not inadvertently turn off unless the
bias voltage drops substantially (see Electrical
Specifications).

and another voltage rail. The enable comparator holds
the ISL6326B in shutdown until the voltage at EN_PWR
rises above 0.875V. The enable comparator has about
130mV of hysteresis to prevent bounce. It is important
that the driver ICs reach their POR level before the
ISL6326B becomes enabled. The schematic in Figure 7

ISL6326B
When all conditions above are satisfied, ISL6326B begins
the soft-start and ramps the output voltage to 1.1V first. After
remaining at 1.1V for some time, ISL6326B reads the VID
code at VID input pins. If the VID code is valid, ISL6326B will
regulate the output to the final VID setting. If the VID code is
OFF code, ISL6326B will shut down, and cycling VCC,
EN_PWR or EN_VTT is needed to restart.
Soft-Start
ISL6326B based VR has 4 periods during soft-start as
shown in Figure 8. After VCC, EN_VTT and EN_PWR reach
their POR/enable thresholds, The controller will have fixed
delay period TD1. After this delay period, the VR will begin
first soft-start ramp until the output voltage reaches 1.1V
Vboot voltage. Then, the controller will regulate the VR
voltage at 1.1V for another fixed period TD3. At the end of
TD3 period, ISL6326B reads the VID signals. If the VID code
is valid, ISL6326B will initiate the second soft-start ramp until
the voltage reaches the VID voltage minus offset voltage.
The soft-start time is the sum of the 4 periods as shown in
the following equation.
TD1 is a fixed delay with the typical value as 1.36ms. TD3 is
determined by the fixed 85µs plus the time to obtain valid
