Figure 4. SVD Packet Structure
SVI2 Interface
The NCP81022 is design to accept commands over AMD’s SVI2 bus. The communication is accomplished using three lines,
a data line SVD, a clock line SVC and a telemetry line SVT. The SVD line can be used not only to set the voltage level of the
Main rail and North bridge rail, but can also set the load line slope, programmed offset and also the PSI (power state indicator
bits). The SVT line from the NCP81022 communicates voltage, current and status updates back to the processor.
Power State Indicator (PSI)

The SVI2 protocol defines two PSI levels, PSI0 and PSI1. These are active low signals which indicate when the NCP81022
can enter low power states to improve system efficiency and performance. Increasing levels of PSI state indicates low current
consumption of the processor.
www.onsemi.com
17
NCP81022
It is possible for the processor to assert PSI0 and PSI1 out of order i.e. to enter PSI1 prior to PSI0 however; PSI0 always
takes priority over PSI1.
With increasing load current demand the number of active phases increase instantaneous. The NCP81022 can potentially
change from single−phase to user−configured multiphase operation in a single step, depending on PSI state.
PSI0 is activated once the system power is in the region of 20−30 A, in this mode the NCP81022 controller reduces the
number of phases in operation thus reducing switching losses of the system. If the current continues to drop to 1−3 A PSI1 is
asserted and the NCP81022 enters diode emulation mode, operating in single phase mode. See below table for PSI mode
operation.

0 0 1−Phase DCM
0 1 1−Phase CCM
1 0 Full phase mode

Telemetry
The TFN bit along with the VDD and VDDNB domain selectors are used to change the functionality of the telemetry. See
table below for description.
TFN = 1
VDD VDDNB Description
0 1 Telemetry is in voltage and current mode. V&I is sent back for both VDD and VDDNB rails
0 0 Telemetry is in voltage only mode. Voltage information is sent back for both VDD and VDDNB rails
1 0 Telemetry is disabled
1 1 Reserved for future use
Loadline Slope
Within the SVI2 protocol the NCP81022 controller has the ability to manipulate the loadline slope of both the VDD and
VDDNB rails independently of each other, when Enable and PWROK are asserted. Loadline slope trim information is
transmitted in 3 bits , 22:24, over the SVD packet. Please see table below for description.

NCP81022
Offset Trim
Within the SVI2 protocol the NCP81022 controller has the ability to manipulate the offset of both the VDD and VDDNB
rails independently of each other, when Enable and PWROK are asserted. Descriptions of offset codes are described below.
Offset Trim [1:0] Description

00 0 offset
01 Initial offset −25 mV
10 Use initial offset (default)
11 Initial offset +25 mV
SVT Serial Packet

The NCP81022 has the ability to sample and report voltage and current for both the VDD and VDDNB domain. This
information is reported serially over the SVT line which is clocked using the processor driven SVC line. When the PWROK
is deasserted, the NCP81022 is not collecting or reporting telemetry information. When PWROK is asserted, the telemetry
information reported back is as described below. If the NCP81022 is configured in voltage only telemetry then the sampled
voltage for VDD and the sampled voltage for the VDDNB are sent together in every SVT telemetry packet.
Parameter Value Unit

Number of voltage Bits 9 Bits
Maximum reporting Voltage 3.15 V
Minimum reported Voltage 0.00 V
Voltage resolution 6.25 mV
Voltage accuracy from 1.2 V to 800 mV ±1 LSB
Voltage accuracy for voltages greater than 1.2 V and less than 800 mV ±2 LSB
Recommended voltage moving average window size 50 ms
Minimum voltage only telemetry reporting rate 20 kHz
Number of bits in current data 8 Bits
Max reported current (FFh = OCP) 100 % of IDD spike _ocp
Max reported current (00h) 0 % of IDD spike _ocp
If the NCP81022 is configured in voltage and current mode then the samples voltage and current information for VDD is
sent out in one SVT telemetry packet while the voltage and current information for the VDDNB domain is sent out in the next
SVT telemetry packet. The telemetry report rate while the NCP81022 is in current and voltage mode, is double that which is
observed in voltage only mode. The reported voltage and current are moving average representations.

SVI2 VR to Processor Data Communication

As described previously the NCP81022 has the ability to send digitally encoded voltage and current values for the VDD and
VDDNB domains to the processor, it also has the capability to send VID On The Fly (VOTF) complete mechanism. The
processor uses this information as an indicator for when the VDD, VDDNB are independently, or collectively, at the requested
stepped−up VID voltage. The VOTF complete mechanism is not used for VID changes to lower or for repeated VID codes.
VOTF Complete is transmitted as an SVT packet. Since a VOTF request could apply to one or two voltage domains, rules
are suggested below to handle these cases.
VID Change Offset Change Loadline Change VOFT Timing Force or Decay Change
UP Unchanged Unchanged After slewing Force voltage change

• Telemetry takes priority over VOTF Complete signals

• VOTF complete can be sent if the net voltage change is 0 or negative
• VOTF Complete is only used to indicate that a rail(s) has finish slewing to a higher voltage.
• If a VOTF request for a higher voltage is sent for both VDD and VDDNB rails, but only domain will go up in voltage
then the returned VOTF Complete will indicate that the increasing domain has finished slewing

• If the processor is sending a SVD packet when the NCP81022 is sending telemetry packet to send, then the NCP81022
waits to send the telemetry until after the SVD packet has stopped transmitting.
• If the processor stops sending the SVD packet while the NCP81022 is sending telemetry then no action has to be taken,
the NCP81022 shifts in the new SVD packet and finishes sending the telemetry while the processor is sending the SVD
packet.
• SVT packets are not sent while PWROK is deasserted
• The NCP81022 will not collect or send telemetry data when telemetry functionality is disabled by the TFN bits

The NCP81102 supports eight possible SMBus Addresses. Pin 28 (PWM4) is used to set the SMBus Address. On power up
a 10 mA current is sourced from this pin through a resistor connected to this pin and the resulting voltage is measured. The Table

Remote Sense Amplifier

A high performance high input impedance true differential amplifier is provided to accurately sense the output voltage of
the regulator. The VSP and VSN inputs should be connected to the regulator’s output voltage sense points. The remote sense
amplifier takes the difference of the output voltage with the DAC voltage and adds the droop voltage to:
V DIFF + ǒV VSP * V VSNǓ ) ǒ1.3 V * V DACǓ ) ǒV DROOP * V CSREFǓ
This signal then goes through a standard error compensation network and into the inverting input of the error amplifier. The
non−inverting input of the error amplifier is connected to the same 1.3 V reference used for the differential sense amplifier
output bias.
High Performance Voltage Error Amplifier

A high performance error amplifier is provided for high bandwidth transient performance. A standard type 3 compensation
circuit is normally used to compensate the system.
Differential Current Feedback Amplifiers

Each phase has a low offset differential amplifier to sense that phase current for current balance and per phase OCP protection
during soft−start. The inputs to the CSREF and CSPx pins are high impedance inputs. It is recommended that any external filter
resistor RCSN not exceed 10 kW to avoid offset issues with leakage current. It is also recommended that the voltage sense

mode control approach.
Total Current Sense Amplifier

The NCP81022 uses a patented approach to sum the phase currents into a single temperature compensated total current
signal. This signal is then used to generate the output voltage droop, total current limit, and the output current monitoring
functions. The total current signal is floating with respect to CSREF. The current signal is the difference between CSCOMP
and CSREF. The Ref (n) resistors sum the signals from the output side of the inductors to create a low impedance virtual ground.
The amplifier actively filters and gains up the voltage applied across the inductors to recover the voltage drop across the
inductor series resistance (DCR). Rth is placed near an inductor to sense the temperature of the inductor. This allows the filter
time constant and gain to be a function of the Rth NTC resistor and compensate for the change in the DCR with temperature.

Rph
Set the gain by adjusting the value of the Rph resistors. The DC gain should set to the output voltage droop. If the voltage
from CSCOMP to CSREF is less than 100mV then it is recommended to increase the gain of the CSCOMP amp and add a
resister divider to the Droop pin filter. This is required to provide a good current signal to offset voltage ratio for the ILIM pin.
When no droop is needed, the gain of the amplifier should be set to provide ~100 mV across the current limit programming
resistor at full load. The values of Rcs1 and Rcs2 are set based on the 220k NTC and the temperature effect of the inductor and
should not need to be changed. The NTC should be placed near the closest inductor. The output voltage droop should be set
with the droop filter divider.
The pole frequency in the CSCOMP filter should be set equal to the zero from the output inductor. This allows the circuit
to recover the inductor DCR voltage drop current signal. Ccs1 and Ccs2 are in parallel to allow for fine tuning of the time
constant using commonly available values. It is best to fine tune this filter during transient testing.

Precision Oscillator
A programmable precision oscillator is provided. The clock oscillator serves as the master clock to the ramp generator circuit.
This oscillator is programmed by a resistor to ground on the ROSC pin. The oscillator can also be programmed over the SMBus
interface through register 0xF7. The oscillator frequency range is between 200 kHz/phase to 1 MHz/phase in 32 steps. The
ROSC pin provides approximately 2 V out and the source current is mirrored into the internal ramp oscillator.

NCP81022
Figure 13. NCP81022 Operating Frequency vs. Rosc
Figure 14. PWM vs. Register Code
The oscillator generates triangle ramps that are 0.5~2.5 V in amplitude depending on the VRMP pin voltage to provide input
voltage feed forward compensation. The ramps are equally spaced out of phase with respect to each other and the signal phase
rail is set half way between phases 1 and 2 of the multi phase rail for minimum input ripple current.
Programming the Ramp Feed−Forward Circuit

The ramp generator circuit provides the ramp used by the PWM comparators. The ramp generator provides voltage
feed−forward control by varying the ramp magnitude with respect to the VRMP pin voltage. The VRMP pin also has a 4 V
UVLO function. The VRMP UVLO is only active after the controller is enabled. The VRMP pin is a high impedance input
when the controller is disabled.

Programming TRBST#
The TRBST# pin provides a signal to offset the output after load release overshoot. This network should be fine tuned during
the board tuning process and is only necessary in systems with significant load release overshoot. The TRBST# network allows
maximum boost for low frequency load release events to minimize load release ringing back undershoot. The network time
constants are set up to provide a TRBST# roll of at higher frequencies where it is not needed. Cboost1*Rbst1 controls the time
constant of the load release boost. This should be set to counter the under shoot after load release. Rbst1+ Rbst2 controls the
maximum amount of boost during rapid step loading. Rbst2 is generally much larger then Rbst1. The Cboost2*Rbst2 time
constant controls the roll off frequency of the TRBST# function.

PWM Comparators
During steady state operation, the duty cycle is centered on the valley of the triangle ramp waveform and both edges of the
PWM signal are modulated. During a transient event the duty will increase rapidly and proportionally turning on all phases
as the error amp signal increases with respect to the ramps to provide a highly linear and proportional response to the step load.
Phase Detection Sequence for Main Rail
During start−up, the number of operational phases and their phase relationship is determined by the internal circuitry
monitoring the CSN Pins. Normally, NCP81022 main rail operates as a 4−phase PWM controller. Connecting CSN4 pin to
VCC programs 3−phase operation, connecting CSN2 and CSN4 pin to VCC programs 2−phase operation, connecting CSN2,
CSN3 and CSN4 pin to VCC programs 1−phase operation. Prior to soft start, while ENABLE is high, CSN4 to CSN2 pins sink
approximately 50 mA. An internal comparator checks the voltage of each pin versus a threshold of 4.5V. If the pin is tied to
VCC, its voltage is above the threshold. Otherwise, an internal current sink pulls the pin to GND, which is below the threshold.
PWM1 is low during the phase detection interval, which takes 30us. After this time, if the remaining CSN outputs are not pulled
to VCC, the 50 mA current sink is removed, and NCP81022 main rail functions as normal 4 phase controller. If the CSNs
are pulled to VCC, the 50 mA current source is removed, and the outputs are driven into a high impedance state.
The PWM outputs are logic−level devices intended for driving fast response external gate drivers such as the NCP5901 and
NCP5911. Because each phase is monitored independently, operation approaching 100% duty cycle is possible. In addition,
more than one PWM output can be on at the same time to allow overlapping phases.

Soft Start
Soft start is implemented internally. A digital counter steps the DAC up from zero to the target voltage based on the
predetermined slew rate programmed on startup. The controller enables and sets the PWM signal to the 2.0 V MID state to
indicate that the drivers should be in diode mode. The COMP pin released to begin soft−start. The DAC will ramp from Zero
to the target DAC codes and the PWM outputs will begin to fire. Each phase will move out of the MID state when the first PWM
pulse is produced preventing the discharge of a pre−charged output.

Figure 18. Soft−Start Sequence
Over Current Latch− Off Protection

The NCP81022 support IDDSPIKE, an amount of current drawn by the processor that exceeds the sustained design current
limit, TDC, for a thermally significant period of time <10 ms. The NCP81022 incorporates a dual threshold current based
protection mechanism for both the VDD and the VDDNB output to protect the NCP81022 if the output current exceeds TDC.
The NCP81022 provides two different types of current limit protection. During normal operation a programmable total
current limit is provided that scales with the phase count during power saving operation. A second fixed per−phase current limit
is provided for VID lower than 0.25 V, such as during soft−start.
The level of total current limit is set with the resistor from the ILIM pin to CSCOMP pin. Internally the current through ILIM
pin is scaled and then compared to two current thresholds 10 mA and 15 mA, where 10 uA threshold is scaled to indicate the
100% current limit and 15 mA indicates the 150% current limit. If 100% current limit is exceeded, an internal latch−off counter
starts. The controller shuts down if the over current fault is not removed after 50 ms. If 150% current limit is exceeded, the
controller shuts down immediately. To recover from an OCP fault the EN pin must be cycled low. The current limit is scaled
when phase shedding is in operation. Phase shedding from 4−phase to single phase scales the current limit to its 1/4; phase
shedding from 2−phase to single phase scales the current limit to its half.
During startup the per phase current limit is active to protect the individual output stages. This limit monitors the voltage
drop across the DCR through the CSPx and CSREF pins. The minimum threshold is 36 mV.
Under Voltage Monitor

Both output, VDD and VDDNB, must be protected from an under−voltage fault, which is indicative or a short circuit fault.
The UVP threshold is shown in the table below. The output voltage is monitored at the output of the differential amplifier for
UVLO. If the output falls more than 300 mV below the DAC−DROOP voltage the UVLO comparator will trip sending the
VDD_PWRGD/VDDNB_PWRGD signal low. If a UVP event occurs, the NCP81022 need to be re−enable by cycling the
enable pin.
Over Voltage Protection

During normal operation the output voltage is monitored at the differential inputs VSP and VSN. If the output voltage
exceeds the DAC voltage by approximately 325 mV, LGx from integrated drivers will be forced high and PWM/PWMA will
be forced low when OVP is triggered. And then the DAC will ramp down to zero to avoid a negative output voltage spike during
shutdown. When the DAC gets to zero, LGx will be forced high and PWM/PWMA will be forced low with DRON remaining
high. To reset the part the EN pin must be cycled low.

Layout Notes
The NCP81022 has differential voltage and current monitoring. This improves signal integrity and reduces noise issues
related to layout for easy design use. To insure proper function there are some general rules to follow:
Careful layout in per phase and total current sensing are critical for jitter minimization, accurate current balancing and ILIM
monitoring. Give the first priority in component placement and trace routing to per phase and total current sensing circuit. The
per phase inductor current sense RC filters should always be placed as close to the CSREF and CSP pins on the controller as
possible. The filter cap from CSCOMP to CSREF should also be close to the controller. The temperature−compensate resistor
RTH should be placed as close as possible to the Phase 1 inductor. The wiring path between RCSx and RPHx should be kept as
short as possible and well away from switch node lines. The Refx resistors (10 W) connected to CSREF pin should be placed
near the inductors to reduce the length of traces. The above layout notes are shown in the following diagram:

NCP81022
Place the VCC decoupling caps as close as possible to the controller VCC pin. For any RC filter on the VCC and VDDBP
pins, the resistor should be no higher than 2.2 W to prevent large voltage drop.
The small high feed back cap from COMP to FB should be as close to the controller as possible. Keep the FB traces short
to minimize their capacitance to ground.
Digital Interface
Control of the NCP81022 is carried out using the Digital Interface.
The NCP81022 is connected to this bus as a slave device, under the control of a master controller.
Data is sent over the serial bus in sequences of nine clock pulses: eight bits of data followed by an acknowledge bit from
the slave device. Transitions on the data line must occur during the low period of the clock signal and remain stable during the
high period, because a low−to−high transition when the clock is high might be interpreted as a stop signal. The number of data
bytes that can be transmitted over the serial bus in a single read or write operation is limited only by what the master and slave
devices can handle.
1. When all data bytes have been read or written, stop conditions are established. In write mode, the master pulls the
data line high during the tenth clock pulse to assert a stop condition. In read mode, the master device overrides the
acknowledge bit by pulling the data line high during the low period before the ninth clock pulse; this is known as No
Acknowledge. The master takes the data line low during the low period before the tenth clock pulse, and then high
during the tenth clock pulse to assert a stop condition.
Any number of bytes of data can be transferred over the serial bus in one operation, but it is not possible to mix read
and write in one operation because the type of operation is determined at the beginning and cannot subsequently be
changed without starting a new operation.
In the NCP81022, write operations contain one, two or three bytes, and read operations contain one or two bytes. The
command code or register address determines the number of bytes to be read or written, See the register map for more
information.
To write data to one of the device data registers or read data from it, the address pointer register must be set so that
the correct data register is addressed (i.e. command code), and then data can be written to that register or read from it.
The first byte of a read or write operation always contains an address that is stored in the address pointer register. If
data is to be written to the device, the write operation contains a second data byte that is written to the register
selected by the address pointer register.
This write byte operation is shown in Figure 22. The device address is sent over the bus, and then R/W is set to 0.
This is followed by two data bytes. The first data byte is the address of the internal data register to be written to,
which is stored in the address pointer register. The second data byte is the data to be written to the internal data
register.
2. The read byte operation is shown in Figure 23. First the command code needs to be written to the NCP81022 so that
the required data is sent back. This is done by performing a write to the NCP81022 as before, but only the data byte
containing the register address is sent, because no data is written to the register. A repeated start is then issued and a
read operation is then performed consisting of the serial bus address; R/W bit set to 1, followed by the data byte read
from the data register.
3. It is not possible to read or write a data byte from a data register without first writing to the address pointer register,
even if the address pointer register is already at the correct value.
4. In addition to supporting the send byte, the NCP81022 also supports the read byte, write byte, read word and write
word protocols.

The NCP81022 includes a timeout feature. If there is no Bus activity for 35 ms, the NCP81022 assumes that the bus is locked
and releases the bus. This prevents the device from locking or holding the SMBus expecting data. Some SMBus controllers
cannot handle the SMBus timeout feature, so it can be disabled.
To prevent rogue programs or viruses from accessing critical NCP81022 register settings, the lock bit can be set. Setting Bit 0
of the Lock/Reset sets the lock bit and locks critical registers. In this mode, certain registers can no longer be written to until
the NCP81022 is powered down and powered up again. For more information on which registers are locked see the register
map.
