3.3 V Power Supply Output. A capacitor from this pin to ground provided decoupling for the interval
3.3 V LDO.
ALERT Output. Open drain output that asserts low when the VR exceeds a programmable limit.
FAULT Output. Open drain output that asserts low when a fault has occurred. The fault can be due to
VR or current limit, crowbar, or undervoltage. The trip points are loaded into registers.
Digital Input/Output. PMBus serial data bidirectional pin. Requires PMBus pullup.
Digital Input. PMBus serial bus clock open drain input. Requires PMBus pullup.
Power Supply Enable Input. Pulling this pin to GND disables the PWM outputs and pulls the
PWRGD output low.
Ground. All internal biasing and the logic output signals of the device are referenced to this ground.
Analog Filter Output. A capacitor from this pin to ground sets the default current monitor filter
frequency. The frequency can be modified using the serial interface.
Current Reference Input. An external resistor from this pin to ground sets the reference current for
I
Frequency Setting Resistor Input. An external resistor connected between this pin and GND sets the
oscillator frequency of the device.
PWM Ramp Current Input. An external resistor from the converter input voltage to this pin sets the
internal PWM ramp.
Transient Detect.
Feedback Return. VID DAC and error amplifier reference for remote sensing of the output voltage.
Error Amplifier Output and Compensation Point.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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. This value can be overwritten using the PMBus
interface.
Output Disable Logic Output for phases 2−4. This pin is actively pulled low when the EN input is low
or when VCC is below its UVLO threshold to signal to the Driver IC that the driver high−side and
low−side outputs should go low.
Output Disable Logic Output for phase one. This pin is actively pulled low when the EN input is low
or when VCC is below its UVLO threshold to signal to the Driver IC that the driver high−side and
low−side outputs should go low.
Current Balance Inputs. Inputs for measuring the current level in each phase. The SW pins of
unused phases should be left open.
Logic−Level PWM Outputs. Each output is connected to the input of an external MOSFET driver
such as the ADP3121. Connecting the PWM4, and PWM3 outputs to VCC causes that phase to turn
off, allowing the NCP4201 to operate as a 2−phase controller.
Supply Voltage for the Device.
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.
Power Save Interface. System signal to select single phase option.
Power−Good Output. Open−drain output that signals when the output voltage is outside of the proper
operating range.
