SMM665C: Six-Channel Active DC Output Controller, Monitor, Marginer and Sequencer
INTRODUCTION
The SMM665C is an Active DC Output power supply Controller (ADOC) that monitors, margins and cascade sequences. The ADOC feature is unique and maintains extremely accurate settings of system supply voltages to within ±0.2% under full load. The device actively controls up to six DC/DC converters that use a Trim or Regulator VADJ/FB pin to adjust the output voltage. For system test, the part also controls margining of the supplies using I²C commands. It can margin supplies with either positive or negative control within a range of 0.3V to VDD depending on the specified range of the converter. The SMM665C also intelligently sequences or cascades the power supplies on and off in any order using enable outputs with programmable polarity. It can operate off any intermediate bus supply ranging from 8V to 15V or from 5.5V to as low as 2.7V. The part monitors six power supply channels as well as VDD, 12V input, two general-purpose analog inputs and an internal temperature sensor using a 10-bit ADC. The 10-bit ADC can measure the value on any one of the monitor channels and output the data via the I²C bus. A host system can communicate with the SMM665C status register, optionally control Power-on/off, margining and utilize 4K-bits of nonvolatile memory.
