STMicroelectronics PM7050A
The PM7050A is a smart device that integrates a high-side and low-side MOSFET, and a high performance driver with integrated bootstrap FET. The PM7050A offers high accuracy current and temperature monitors that can be provided to the controller of a multiphase DC/DC system. They simplify design and increase performance by eliminating the DCR sensing network and associated thermal compensation.FEATURES
● Input range: 4.5 V to 18 V● Supports 50 A DC current
● Compatible with 3.3 V tri-state PWM
● Down slope current sensing
● ± 3 % accuracy current monitor (IMON) with REFIN input
● 8 mV /°C temperature monitor with OT flag
● Dedicated low-side FET control input
● Fault protection: – High-side FET short and overcurrent protection – Overtemperature protection – VCC and VIN undervoltage lockout (UVLO)
● Open drain fault reporting output
● Up to 2 MHz switching frequency
APPLICATIONS
● High frequency and high efficiency VRM and VRD.● Core, graphic, and memory regulators for microprocessors
● High density VR for server, networking, and cloud computing
● POL DC/DC converters and video gaming consoles
DESCRIPTION
An industry leading, thermally enhanced, 4 x 5 mm package allows minimal overall PCB real estate and low profile construction. The device features a 3.3 V compatible tri-state PWM input that, together with multiphase controllers, provides a robust solution in the event of abnormal operating conditions.
