  OPTI-LOOP Architecture Reduces Output Capacitance and Improves Transient Response &mdash AN76
  PDF, 271 Kb, Datei veröffentlicht: May 1, 1999
  Loop compensation is an uncomfortable subject for many engineers. Experienced power supply designers know that optimum loop compensation is necessary to get the best performance from their power supplies. This application note discusses power supply loop compensation utilizing the features provided by the OPTILOOPTM architecture. Loop compensation basics are presented and simple equations are given for frequency response approximations. Typical transient response requirements for the system supply and CPU supply, used in notebook computers, are discussed. Output voltage transient response waveforms and Bode plots are shown for both optimized and nonoptimized control loops as well as for circuits with optimized loops using different output capacitors. Although this publication focuses on circuits using the LTC1628, LTC1735 and LTC1736, the information applies to all regulators equipped with OPTI-LOOP architecture.

  OPTI-LOOP Architecture Reduces Output Capacitance and
  Improves Transient Response
  John Seago
  INTRODUCTION WHAT IS LOOP COMPENSATION? Removing output capacitors saves money and board
  space. Linear Technology’s OPTI-LOOPTM architecture
  allows you to use the output capacitors of your choice and
  compensate the control loop for optimum transient
  response and loop stability. Figure 1 shows the dramatic
  improvement possible with the OPTI-LOOP architecture.
  With the improvement shown in Figure 1, less capacitance
  is required or less expensive capacitors can be used. Load
  dynamics and supply tolerances will predict the minimum
  output capacitance required. The quality of loop compensation determines how close you can get to this minimum
  capacitance requirement in a real world system. Loop compensation is the adjustment of the control loop
  frequency response to assure loop stability and optimize
  the transient response of the power supply. The frequency
  response is determined by the gain and phase of the loop’s
  reaction to load current changes at all frequencies. A Bode
  plot is used to show the gain and phase of the frequency
  response. OUTPUT VOLTAGE (50mV/DIV) One of the least understood areas of power supply design
  is control loop compensation. Because of this, some …

  Active Voltage Positioning Reduces Output Capacitors
  by Robert Sheehan
  INTRODUCTION
  Power supply performance, especially transient response,
  is key to meeting today’s demands for low voltage, high
  current microprocessor power. In an effort to minimize
  the voltage deviation during a load step, a technique that
  has recently been coined “active voltage positioning” is
  generating substantial interest and gaining popularity in
  the portable computer market. The benefits include lower
  peak-to-peak output voltage deviation for a given load
  step, without having to increase the output filter capacitance. Alternatively, the output filter capacitance can be
  reduced while maintaining the same peak-to-peak transient response.
  BASIC PRINCIPLE
  The term “active voltage positioning” (AVP) refers to
  setting the power supply output voltage at a point that is
  dependent on the load current. At minimum load, the
  output voltage is set to a slightly higher than nominal level.
  At full load, the output voltage is set to a slightly lower than
  nominal level. Effectively, the DC load regulation is
  degraded, but the load transient voltage deviation will be …

  2-Phase DC/DC Controller Reduces Capacitance
  and Increases Battery Life in Portable Applications
  The LTCВ®1628 dual high efficiency DC/DC controller brings
  the considerable benefits of 2-phase operation to portable
  applications for the first time. Notebook computers, PDAs,
  handheld terminals and automotive electronics will all
  benefit from the lower input filtering requirement, reduced
  electromagnetic interference (EMI) and increased efficiency associated with 2-phase operation. coming from the switches, greatly reducing the overlap
  time where they add together (see Figure 1). The result is
  a significant reduction in total RMS input current, which,
  in turn, allows less expensive input capacitors to be used,
  reduces shielding requirements for EMI and improves real
  world operating efficiency.
  Figure 2 compares the input waveforms for a representative 1-phase dual switching regulator to the new LTC1628
  2-phase dual switching regulator. An actual measurement
  of the RMS input current under these conditions shows
  that 2-phase operation lowers the input current from
  2.53ARMS to 1.55ARMS. Why the need for 2-phase operation? Before the LTC1628,
  constant-frequency dual switching regulators operated
  both channels in phase (i.e., 1-phase operation). This
  means that both switches turned on at the same time, …

  advertisement A Low Cost, Efficient Mobile CPU Power – Design Note 199
  Randy G. Flatness
  The LTC ®1735 is the newest member of Linear Technology’s third generation of synchronous step-down
  controllers. This controller uses the same constant
  frequency, current mode architecture and Burst
  ModeВ® operation as the industry standard LTC1435/
  LTC1437 controllers but with improved features. With
  OPTI-LOOPВ® compensation, new protection circuitry,
  tighter load regulation and stronger MOSFET drivers, the
  LTC1735 is ideal for the current and future generations
  of mobile CPUs. A companion part, the LTC1736, has
  all the features of the LTC1735 plus 5-bit VID voltage
  programming according to Intel mobile processor
  specifications.
  The LTC1735 is pin compatible with the previous generation LTC1435/LTC1435A controllers with only minor
  external component value changes. New protection
  features include internal foldback current limiting,
  output overvoltage crowbar and optional short-circuit
  shutdown. The 0.8V reference supports the low output voltages and 1% accuracy that will be demanded
  by future microprocessors. A constant operating
  frequency (synchronizable up to 500kHz) is set by an
  external capacitor, COSC, allowing maximum flexibility
  in optimizing efп¬Ѓciency. …

  advertisement 2-Step Voltage Regulation Improves Performance and
  Decreases CPU Temperature in Portable Computers
  Design Note 209
  John Seago
  2-step regulation allows CPU power supply optimization
  in portable applications. Higher CPU clock frequencies
  mean lower core voltages, higher supply currents and more
  CPU power dissipation. Regulating CPU power from 5V
  reduces regulator switching losses permitting a higher
  switching frequency. Higher frequency operation results
  in smaller inductor size, fewer output capacitors and
  better transient response. OPTI-LOOPВ® compensation
  and a 3.5V to 36V input range make the LTC В®1736 a
  good choice for either 1-step or 2-step configurations. CPU core voltages are currently in the 1.5V region.
  Using the 1-step approach, regulating 24V down to
  1.5V forces the regulator to regulate narrow “slivers”
  of input current to meet the transient requirements of
  high speed CPUs. A 24V wall adapter forces a 6.25%
  duty cycle when supplying a CPU voltage of 1.5V which
  means that the top MOSFET conducts for 0.2Ојs each
  cycle, at 300kHz.
  Using 2-step regulation, CPU voltages are regulated
  from the 5V system supply. Decreasing the input …

  Computer Applications
  Introduction

  active voltage positioning. Active voltage positioning is a technique that can be used to save cost
  and space by reducing the number of
  output capacitors required to meet a
  microprocessor’s power supply
  requirements. Total system cost and
  required PCB space are important
  aspects of today’s portable equipment
  designs, so decreasing the number of
  large, expensive output capacitors is
  worth some effort. Both the LTC1735/
  LTC1736 current mode switching
  regulator controllers (Linear Technology IX:1, February 1999, pp. 1, 3–5,
  35) and the LTC1702/LTC1703
  voltage mode controllers (Linear Technology IX:3, September 1999, Microprocessor Load Steps
  Microprocessors frequently change
  their load current requirement from
