The PTHxx060Y are a series of ready-to-use switching regulator modules from Texas Instruments designed

specifically for bus termination in DDR and QDR memory applications. Operating from either a 3.3-V, 5-V or 12-V

input, the modules generate a VTT output that will source or sink up to 10 A of current to accurately track their

VREF input. VTT is the required bus termination supply voltage, and VREF is the reference voltage for the memory

and chipset bus receiver comparators. VREF is usually set to half the VDDQ power supply voltage.

Both the PTHxx060Y series employs an actively switched synchronous rectifier output to provide state-of-the-art

stepdown switching conversion. The products are small in size (1 in ×0.62 in), and are an ideal choice where

space, performance, and high efficiency are desired, along with the convenience of a ready-to-use module.

Operating features include an on/off inhibit and output over-current protection (source mode only). The on/off

inhibit feature allows the VTT bus to be turned off to save power in a standby mode of operation. To ensure tight

load regulation, an output remote sense is also provided. Package options include both throughhole and surface

mount configurations.

(1) Rating is conditional on the module being directly soldered to a 4-layer PCB with 1 oz. copper. See the SOA curves or contact the

factory for appropriate derating.

(2) This control pin has an internal pull-up to the input voltage VIN. If it is left open-circuit the module will operate when input power is

note.

(3) An input capacitor is required for proper operation. The capacitor must be rated for a minimum of 300 mA rms (750 mA rms for 12-V

the memory bus terminations. Lower values of capacitance may be possible when the measured peak change in output current is

consistently less than 3 A.

Terminal Functions

TERMINAL DESCRIPTION

NAME NO.

VIN 2 The positive input voltage power node to the module, which is referenced to common GND.

This is the common ground connection for the VIN and VTT power connections. It is also the 0-VDC reference

GND 1, 7 for the control inputs.

The module senses the voltage at this input to regulate the output voltage, VTT. The voltage at VREF is also

the reference voltage for the system bus receiver comparators. It is normally set to precisely half the bus

VREF 8 driver supply voltage (VDDQ÷2), using a resistor divider. The Thevenin impedance of the network driving the

VREF pin should not exceed 500 Ω. See the Typical DDR Application Diagram in the Application Information

section for reference.

This is the regulated power output from the module with respect to the GND node, and the tracking

termination supply for the application data and address buses. It is precisely regulated to the voltage applied

VTT 6to the module's VREF input, and is active active about 20 ms after a valid input source is applied to the

module. Once active it will track the voltage applied at VREF.

The sense input allows the regulation circuit to compensate for voltage drop between the module and the

VoSense 5 load. For optimal voltage accuracy VoSense should be connected to VTT.

The Inhibit pin is an open-collector/drain negative logic input that is referenced to GND. Applying a low-level

ground signal to this input turns off the output voltage, VTT. Although the module is inhibited, a voltage, VDDQ

will be present at the output terminals, fed through the DDR memory. When the Inhibit is active, the input

Inhibit 3 current drawn by the regulator is significantly reduced. If the Inhibit pin is left open circuit, the module will

produce an output whenever a valid input source is applied. See the Typical DDR Application Diagram in the

Application Information section for reference.

MODULES (3.3-V/5-V OPTION)

The recommended input capacitor(s) is determined by the 330 µF(1) minimum capacitance and 300 mArms

minimum ripple current rating.

Ripple current and less than 160 mΩequivalent series resistance (ESR) values are the major considerations,

along with temperature, when designing with different types of capacitors. Unlike polymer tantalum, regular

tantalum capacitors have a recommended minimum voltage rating of 2 ×(maximum DC voltage + AC ripple).

This is standard practice to insure reliability.

For improved ripple reduction on the input bus, ceramic capacitors may be substituted for electrolytic types using

the minimum required capacitance.

For applications with load transients (sudden changes in load current), regulator response will benefit from

external output capacitance. The recommended output capacitance of 470 µF will allow the module to meet its

transient response specification (see Electrical Specifications table). For most applications, a high quality

computer-grade aluminum electrolytic capacitor is adequate. These capacitors provide decoupling over the

frequency range, 2 kHz to 150 kHz, and are suitable when ambient temperatures are above 0°C. For operation

below 0°C tantalum, ceramic or Os-Con type capacitors are recommended. When using one or more

non-ceramic capacitors, the calculated equivalent ESR should be no lower than 4 mΩ(7 mΩusing the

manufacturer's maximum ESR for a single capacitor). A list of preferred low-ESR type capacitors are identified in

Table 1.

APPLICATION INFORMATION (continued)

Above 150 kHz the performance of aluminum electrolytic capacitors becomes less effective. To further improve

the reflected input ripple current or the output transient response. Multilayer ceramic capacitors have very low

ESR and their resonant frequency higher than the bandwidth of the regulator. They can be used to reduce the

reflected ripple current at the input as well as improve the transient response of the output. When used on the

output their combined ESR is not critical as long as the total value of ceramic capacitance does not exceed

300 µF. Also, to prevent the formation of local resonances, do not place more than five identical ceramic

capacitors in parallel with values of 10 µF or greater.

Tantalum type capacitors can be used at both the input and output, and are recommended for applications where

the ambient operating temperature can be less than 0°C. The AVX TPS, Sprague 593D/594/595 and Kemet

T495/T510 capacitor series are suggested over many other tantalum types due to their higher rated surge, power

dissipation, and ripple current capability. As a caution many general purpose tantalum capacitors have

considerably higher ESR, reduced power dissipation and lower ripple current capability. These capacitors are

also less reliable when determining their power dissipation and surge current rating. Tantalum capacitors that do

not have a stated ESR or surge current rating are not recommended for power applications.

When specifying Os-Con and polymer tantalum capacitors for the output, the minimum ESR limit will be

encountered well before the maximum capacitance value is reached.

Table 1 identifies the characteristics of capacitors from a number of vendors with acceptable ESR and ripple

current (rms) ratings. The recommended number of capacitors required at both the input and output buses is

identified for each capacitor type.

This is not an extensive capacitor list. Capacitors from other vendors are available with comparable

specifications. Those listed are for guidance. The RMS ripple current rating and ESR (at 100 kHz) are critical

parameters necessary to insure both optimum regulator performance and long capacitor life.

(2) N/R – Not recommended. The capacitor does not meet the minimum operating limits.

(3) A ceramic capacitor may be used to compliment electrolytic types at the input to further reduce high-frequency ripple current.

The transient response of the DC/DC converter has been characterized using a load transient with a di/dt of 1

A/µs. The typical voltage deviation for this load transient is given in the data sheet specification table using the

optional value of output capacitance. As the di/dt of a transient is increased, the response of a converter's

regulation circuit ultimately depends on its output capacitor decoupling network. This is an inherent limitation with

any DC/DC converter once the speed of the transient exceeds its bandwidth capability. If the target application

specifies a higher di/dt or lower voltage deviation, the requirement can only be met with additional output

capacitor decoupling. In these cases special attention must be paid to the type, value and ESR of the capacitors

selected.

If the transient performance requirements exceed that specified in the data sheet, or the total amount of load

capacitance is above 5500 µF, the selection of output capacitors becomes more important.

CAPACITOR RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE PTH12060Y DDR POWER MODULES

PTH03060Y

PTH05060Y, PTH12060Y

SLTS222A–MARCH 2004–REVISED OCTOBER 2005

(12-V OPTION)

Input Capacitor

The recommended input capacitance is determined by the 560 µF [1] minimum capacitance and 750 mArms

minimum ripple current rating. A 10-µF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitor can be added to reduce the reflected input

ripple current. The ceramic capacitor should be located between the input electrolytic and the module.

Ripple current, less than 100 mΩequivalent series resistance (ESR) and temperature, are major considerations

when selecting input capacitors. Unlike polymer-tantalum capacitors, regular tantalum capacitors have a

recommended minimum voltage rating of 2 ×(max. dc voltage + ac ripple). No tantalum capacitors were found

with sufficient voltage rating to meet this requirement. At temperatures below 0°C, the ESR of aluminum

electrolytic capacitors increases. For these applications, Os-Con, polymer-tantalum, and polymer-aluminum types

should be considered.

Output Capacitors

For applications with load transients (sudden changes in load current), regulator response will benefit from

external output capacitance. The recommended output capacitance of 940µF will allow the module to meet its

transient response specification (See Electrical Specifications table). For most applications, a high quality,

computer-grade aluminum electrolytic capacitor is adequate. These capacitors provide decoupling over the

frequency range, 2 kHz to 150 kHz, and are suitable for ambient temperatures above 0°C. Below 0°C, tantalum,

ceramic, or Os-Con type capacitors are recommended. When using one or more nonceramic capacitors, the

calculated equivalent ESR should be no lower than 4 mΩ(7 mΩusing the manufacturer's maximum ESR for a

single capacitor).

A list of preferred low-ESR type capacitors are identified in Table 2.

In addition to electrolytic capacitance, adding a 10-µF to 22-µF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitor to the output reduces

the output ripple voltage and improves the regulator's transient response. The measurement of both the output

ripple and transient response is also best achieved across a 10-µF ceramic capacitor.

Ceramic Capacitors

Above 150 kHz, the performance of aluminum electrolytic capacitors is less effective. Multilayer ceramic

capacitors have a low ESR and a resonant frequency higher than the bandwidth of the regulator. They can be

used to reduce the reflected ripple current at the input, and improve the transient response of the output. When

used on the output, their combined ESR is not critical as long as the total value of ceramic capacitance does not

exceed 600 µF. Also, to prevent the formation of local resonances, do not place more than five identical ceramic

capacitors in parallel with values of 10 µF or greater.

Tantalum Capacitors

Tantalum type capacitors are most suited for use on the output bus, and are recommended for applications

where the ambient operating temperature can be less than 0°C. The AVX TPS, Sprague 593D/594/595, and

Kemet T495/T510 capacitor series are suggested over other tantalum types due to their higher rated surge,

power dissipation, and ripple current capability. As a caution, many general-purpose tantalum capacitors have

considerably higher ESR, reduced power dissipation, and lower ripple current capability. These capacitors are

also less reliable as they have lower power dissipation and surge current ratings. Tantalum capacitors that do not

have a stated ESR or surge current rating are not recommended for power applications.

When specifying Os-con and polymer tantalum capacitors for the output, the minimum ESR limit is encountered

well before the maximum capacitance value is reached.

Capacitor Table

Table 2 identifies the characteristics of capacitors from a number of vendors with acceptable ESR and ripple

current (rms) ratings. The recommended number of capacitors required at both the input and output buses is

identified for each capacitor type.

Note: This is not an extensive capacitor list. Capacitors from other vendors are available with comparable

specifications. Those listed are for guidance. The RMS ripple current rating and ESR (at 100 kHz) are critical

parameters necessary to insure both optimum regulator performance and long capacitor life.

Designing for Very Fast Load Transients

The transient response of the dc/dc converter is characterized using a load transient with a di/dt of 1 A/µs. The

typical voltage deviation for this load transient is given in the data sheet specification table using the optional

value of output capacitance. As the di/dt of a transient is increased, the response of a converter's regulation

circuit ultimately depends on its output capacitor decoupling network. This is an inherent limitation with any dc/dc

converter once the speed of the transient exceeds its bandwidth capability. If the target application specifies a

higher di/dt or lower voltage deviation, the requirement is met with additional output capacitor decoupling. In

these cases, special attention must be paid to the type, value, and ESR of the capacitors selected.

If the transient performance requirements exceed that specified in this data sheet, or the total amount of load

capacitance is above 5500 µF, the selection of output capacitors becomes more important.
