Lead Free Status / RoHS Status
Lead free / RoHS Compliant
The MAX17480 evaluation kit (EV kit) demonstrates the
high-power, triple-output notebook CPU application cir-
cuit for the AMD
core supplies. This DC-DC converter steps down high-
voltage batteries and/or AC adapters, generating preci-
sion, low-voltage CPU cores. The MAX17480 EV kit
meets the AMD mobile SVI CPU’s transient voltage
specification, power-good signaling, voltage-regulator
thermal monitoring (VRHOT), and power-good output
(PWRGD). The MAX17480 EV kit consists of one dual-
phase high-current switched-mode power supply
(SMPS) for the CPU core (VCORE0) and one 4A internal
switch SMPS for the northbridge (NB) core. The two
CPU core SMPSs run 180° out-of-phase for true inter-
leaved operation, minimizing input capacitance.
Output voltages are dynamically changed through a
2-wire serial interface, allowing the switching regulators
to be individually programmed to different voltages. A
programmable slew-rate controller enables controlled
transitions between VID codes. SVI also allows each
regulator to be individually set into a low-power pulse-
skipping state.
Soft-start limits the inrush current, and passive shut-
down discharges the output voltage back down to zero
without any negative ring. The MAX17480 EV kit
includes active voltage positioning with adjustable gain,
reducing power dissipation and bulk output capaci-
tance requirements. The MAX17480 includes latched
output undervoltage fault protection, overvoltage fault
protection for the CPU cores, and thermal-overload pro-
tection. It also includes a voltage-regulator power-good
(PWRGD) output.
This fully assembled and tested PCB provides a digital-
ly adjustable 0 to 1.550V output-voltage range (7-bit on-
board DAC) from a 7V to 24V battery input range. Each
phase of the core current SMPS operates at 300kHz
switching frequency and delivers up to 18A output cur-
rent for a total of 36A. The 4A internal switch SMPS
operates at 600kHz switching frequency and delivers
up to 4A. The EV kit has superior line- and load-tran-
sient response. The EV kit also includes Windows
2000-, Windows XP
software that provides a simple graphical user interface
(GUI) for exercising the features of the MAX17480.
