Data Sheet
The Digital Tomodachi Series of non-isolated dc-dc
converters deliver exceptional electrical and thermal
performance in DOSA based footprints for
Point-of-Load converters. Operating from a
3.0Vdc-14.4Vdc input, these are the converters of
choice for Intermediate Bus Architecture (IBA) and
Distributed Power Architecture applications that require
high efficiency, tight regulation, and high reliability in
elevated temperature environments with low airflow.
The PMBus interface supports a range of commands
to both control and monitor the module. The module
also includes the Tunable Loop™ feature that allows
the user to optimize the dynamic response of the
converter to match the load with reduced amount of
output capacitance leading to savings on cost and
PWB area.
The FGSD12SR6003*A converter of the Tomodachi
Series delivers 3A of output current at a tightly
regulated programmable and PMBus control output
voltage of 0.45Vdc to 5.5Vdc. The thermal
performance of the FGSD12SR6003*A is
best-in-class: Little derating is needed up to 85,
under natural convection.

Design Considerations
Input Filtering
The FGSD12SR6003*A converter should be
connected to a low ac-impedance source. A highly
inductive source can affect the stability of the module.
An input capacitance must be placed directly adjacent
to the input pin of the module, to minimize input ripple
voltage and ensure module stability. High frequency
switching noise can be reduced by using suitable
decoupling ceramic caps.
To minimize input voltage ripple, ceramic capacitors
are recommended at the input of the module. Fig-1
shows the input ripple voltage for various output
voltages at 3A of load current with 1x22uF or 2x22uF
ceramic capacitors and an input of 12V.
Output Filtering
The FGSD12SR6003*A is designed for low output
ripple voltage and will meet the maximum output ripple
specification with 0.1uF ceramic and 22uF ceramic
capacitors at the output of the module. However,
additional output filtering may be required by the
system designer for a number of reasons. First, there
may be a need to further reduce the output ripple and
noise of the module. Second, the dynamic response
characteristics may need to be customized to a
particular load step change.
To reduce the output ripple and improve the dynamic
response to a step load change, additional capacitance
at the output can be used. Low ESR polymer and
ceramic capacitors are recommended to improve the
dynamic response of the module. Fig-2 provides output
ripple information for different external capacitance
values at various Vo and a full load current of 3A. For
stable operation of the module, limit the capacitance to
less than the maximum output capacitance as
specified in the electrical specification table. Optimal
performance of the module can be achieved by using
the Tunable Loop™ feature described later in this data
sheet.
Safety Consideration
For safety agency approval the power module must be
installed in compliance with the spacing and separation
requirements of the end-use safety agency standards,
i.e., UL 60950-1 2nd, CSA C22.2 No. 60950-1-07, DIN
EN 60950-1:2006 + A11 (VDE0805 Teil 1 +
A11):2009-11; EN 60950-1:2006 + A11:2009-03.
For the converter output to be considered meeting the
requirements of safety extra-low voltage (SELV), the
input must meet SELV requirements. The power
module has extra-low voltage (ELV) outputs when all
inputs are ELV.
The input to these units is to be provided with a fast
acting fuse with a maximum rating of 5 A in the positive
input lead. An example of such a fuse is the ABC
series by Littelfuse.

Analog Feature Descriptions
Remote On/Off
The module can be turned ON and OFF either by
using the ON/OFF pin (Analog interface) or through the
PMBus interface (Digital). The module can be
configured in a number of ways through the PMBus
interface to react to the two ON/OFF inputs:
Module ON/OFF can be controlled only through the
analog interface (digital interface ON/OFF
commands are ignored)
Module ON/OFF can be controlled only through the
PMBus interface (analog interface is ignored)
Module ON/OFF can be controlled by either the
analog or digital interface
The default state of the module (as shipped from the
factory) is to be controlled by the analog interface only.
If the digital interface is to be enabled, or the module is
to be controlled only through the digital interface, this
change must be made through the PMBus. These
changes can be made and written to non-volatile
memory on the module so that it is remembered for
subsequent use.
Analog ON/OFF
The FGSD12SR6003*A power modules feature an
On/Off pin for remote On/Off operation. Two On/Off
logic options are available. In the Positive Logic On/Off
option, (device code suffix “P” - see Ordering
Information), the module turns ON during a logic High
on the On/Off pin and turns OFF during a logic Low.
With the Negative Logic On/Off option, (device code
suffix “N” - see Ordering Information), the module turns
OFF during logic High and ON during logic Low. The
On/Off signal should be always referenced to ground.
For either On/Off logic option, leaving the On/Off pin
disconnected will turn the module ON when input
voltage is present.
For positive logic modules, the circuit configuration for
using the On/Off pin is shown in Fig-3. When the
external transistor Q2 is in the OFF state, the internal
transistor Q1 is turned ON, and the internal PWM
#Enable signal is pulled low causing the module to be
ON. When transistor Q2 is turned ON, the On/Off pin is
pulled low and the module is OFF. A suggested value
for Rpullup is 20k.
For negative logic On/Off modules, the circuit
configuration is shown in Fig-4. The On/Off pin should
be pulled high with an external pull-up resistor
(suggested value for the 3V to 14V input range is
20K). When transistor Q2 is in the OFF state, the
On/Off pin is pulled high, transistor Q1 is turned ON
and the module is OFF. To turn the module ON, Q2 is
turned ON pulling the On/Off pin low, turning transistor
Q1 OFF resulting in the PWM Enable pin going high.
Digital ON/OFF
Please see the Digital Feature Descriptions section.
Monotonic Start-up and Shut-down
The module has monotonic start-up and shutdown
behavior for any combination of rated input voltage,
output current and operating temperature range.
Startup into Pre-biased Output
The module can start into a prebiased output as long
as the prebias voltage is 0.5V less than the set output
voltage.

3-14.4Vdc Input, 3A, 0.45-5.5Vdc Output
Http://www.fdk.com Ver 2.3 Oct. 26, 2016
Data Sheet
The output voltage of the module is programmable to
any voltage from 0.6dc to 5.5Vdc by connecting a
resistor between the Trim and SIG_GND pins of the
module. Certain restrictions apply on the output
voltage set point depending on the input voltage.
These are shown in the Output Voltage vs. Input
Voltage Set Point Area plot in Fig-5. The Upper Limit
curve shows that for output voltages lower than 1V, the
input voltage must be lower than the maximum of
14.4V. The Lower Limit curve shows that for output
voltages higher than 0.6V, the input voltage needs to
be larger than the minimum of 3V.
Without an external resistor between Trim and
SIG_GND pins, the output of the module will be 0.6Vdc.
To calculate the value of the trim resistor, Rtrim for a
desired output voltage, should be as per the following
equation:
Rtrim is the external resistor in kohm
Vo-req is the desired output voltage
Note that the tolerance of a trim resistor will affect the
tolerance of the output voltage. Standard 1% or 0.5%
resistors may suffice for most applications; however, a
tighter tolerance can be obtained by using two
resistors in series instead of one standard value
resistor.
Table 1 provides Rtrim values required for some
common output voltages.

Please see the Digital Feature Descriptions section.
Remote Sense
The power module has a Remote Sense feature to
minimize the effects of distribution losses by regulating
the voltage at the SENSE pins. The voltage between
the SENSE pin and VOUT pin should not exceed 0.5V
Analog Voltage Margining
Output voltage margining can be implemented in the
module by connecting a resistor, Rmargin-up, from the
Trim pin to the ground pin for margining-up the output
voltage and by connecting a resistor, Rmargin-down,
from the Trim pin to output pin for margining-down.
Fig-7 shows the circuit configuration for output voltage

Data Sheet

additional details.
Digital Output Voltage Margining
Please see the Digital Feature Descriptions section.
Output Voltage Sequencing
The power module includes a sequencing feature,
EZSEQUENCE that enables users to implement
various types of output voltage sequencing in their
applications. This is accomplished via an additional
sequencing pin. When not using the sequencing
feature, leave it unconnected.
The voltage applied to the SEQ pin should be scaled
down by the same ratio as used to scale the output
voltage down to the reference voltage of the module.
This is accomplished by an external resistive divider
connected across the sequencing voltage before it is
fed to the SEQ pin as shown in Fig-8. In addition, a
small capacitor (suggested value 100pF) should be
connected across the lower resistor R1.
For all Tomodachi modules, the minimum
recommended delay between the ON/OFF signal and
the sequencing signal is 10ms to ensure that the
module output is ramped up according to the
sequencing signal. This ensures that the module
soft-start routine is completed before the sequencing
signal is allowed to ramp up.
When the scaled down sequencing voltage is applied
to the SEQ pin, the output voltage tracks this voltage
until the output reaches the set-point voltage. The final
value of the sequencing voltage must be set higher
than the set-point voltage of the module. The output
voltage follows the sequencing voltage on a
one-to-one basis. By connecting multiple modules
together, multiple modules can track their output
voltages to the voltage applied on the SEQ pin.
The module’s output can track the SEQ pin signal with
slopes of up to 0.5V/msec during power-up or
power-down.
To initiate simultaneous shutdown of the modules, the
SEQ pin voltage is lowered in a controlled manner.
The output voltage of the modules tracks the voltages
below their set-point voltages on a one-to-one basis. A
valid input voltage must be maintained until the
tracking and output voltages reach ground potential.
Note that in all digital Tomodachi series of modules,
the PMBus Output Undervoltage Fault will be tripped
when sequencing is employed. This will be detected
using the STATUS_WORD and STATUS_VOUT
PMBus commands. In addition, the SMBALERT#
signal will be asserted low as occurs for all faults and
warnings. To avoid the module shutting down due to
the Output Undervoltage Fault, the module must be set
to continue operation without interruption as the
response to this fault (see the description of the
PMBus command VOUT_UV_FAULT_RESPONSE for
additional information).

Over-Current Protection
To provide protection in a fault (output overload)
condition, the unit is equipped with internal
current-limiting circuitry and can endure current limiting
continuously. At the point of current-limit inception, the
unit enters hiccup mode. The unit operates normally
once the output current is brought back into its
specified range.
Digital Adjustable Overcurrent Warning
Please see the Digital Feature Descriptions section.
Over-Temperature Protection
To provide protection in a fault condition, the unit is
equipped with a thermal shutdown circuit. The unit will
shut down if the over-temperature threshold of 150°C
(typ) is exceeded at the thermal reference point Tref.
Once the unit goes into thermal shutdown it will then
wait to cool before attempting to restart.

Lockout
Please see the Digital Feature Descriptions section.
Digitally Adjustable Power Good Thresholds
Please see the Digital Feature Descriptions section.
Synchronization
The module switching frequency can be synchronized
to a signal with an external frequency within a specified
range. Synchronization can be done by using the
external signal applied to the SYNC pin of the module
as shown in Fig-I, with the converter being
synchronized by the rising edge of the external signal.
The Electrical Specifications table specifies the
requirements of the external SYNC signal. If the SYNC
pin is not used, the module should free run at the
default switching frequency. If synchronization is not
being used, connect the SYNC pin to GND.
Measuring Output Current, Output Voltage
and Input Voltage
Please see the Digital Feature Descriptions section.
Dual Layout
Identical dimensions and pin layout of Analog and
Digital Tomodachi modules permit migration from one
to the other without needing to change the layout. To
support this, 2 separate Trim Resistor locations have
to be provided in the layout. As shown in Fig. 46, for
the digital modules, the resistor is connected between
the TRIM pad and SGND and in the case of the analog
module it is connected between TRIM and GND.

Tunable Loop™
The module has a feature that optimizes transient
response of the module called Tunable Loop™
External capacitors are usually added to the output of
the module for two reasons: to reduce output ripple
and noise (see Fig-2) and to reduce output voltage
deviations from the steady-state value in the presence
of dynamic load current changes. Adding external
capacitance however affects the voltage control loop of
the module, typically causing the loop to slow down
with sluggish response. Larger values of external
capacitance could also cause the module to become
unstable.
The Tunable Loop™ allows the user to externally
adjust the voltage control loop to match the filter
network connected to the output of the module. The
Tunable Loop™ is implemented by connecting a series
R-C between the SENSE and TRIM pins of the module,
as shown in Fig-11. This R-C allows the user to
externally adjust the voltage loop feedback
compensation of the module.
Recommended values of RTUNE and CTUNE for different
output capacitor combinations are given in Table 2.
Table 2 shows the recommended values of RTUNE and
CTUNE for different values of ceramic output capacitors
up to 1000uF that might be needed for an application
to meet output ripple and noise requirements.
Selecting RTUNE and CTUNE according to Table 2 will
ensure stable operation of the module.
In applications with tight output voltage limits in the
presence of dynamic current loading, additional output
capacitance will be required. Table 3 lists
recommended values of RTUNE and CTUNE in order to
meet 2% output voltage deviation limits for some
common output voltages in the presence of a 1.5A to
3.0A step change (50% of full load), with an input
voltage of 12V.
Please contact your GE technical representative to
obtain more details of this feature as well as for
guidelines on how to select the right value of external
R-C to tune the module for best transient performance
and stable operation for other output capacitance
values.

Digital Feature Description
PMBus Interface Capability
The 3A Digital Tomodachi power modules have a
PMBus interface that supports both communication
and control. The PMBus Power Management Protocol
Specification can be obtained from www.pmbus.org.
The modules support a subset of version 1.1 of the
specification (see Table 6 for a list of the specific
commands supported). Most module parameters can
be programmed using PMBus and stored as defaults
for later use.
All communication over the module PMBus interface
must support the Packet Error Checking (PEC)
scheme. The PMBus master must generate the correct
PEC byte for all transactions, and check the PEC byte
returned by the module.
The module also supports the SMBALERT response
protocol whereby the module can alert the bus master
if it wants to talk. For more information on the SMBus
alert response protocol, see the System Management
Bus (SMBus) specification.
The module has non-volatile memory that is used to
store configuration settings. Not all settings
programmed into the device are automatically saved
into this non-volatile memory, only those specifically
identified as capable of being stored can be saved
(see Table 6 for which command parameters can be
saved to non-volatile storage).
PMBus Data Format
For commands that set thresholds, voltages or report
such quantities, the module supports the “Linear” data
format among the three data formats supported by
PMBus. The Linear Data Format is a two byte value
with an 11-bit, two’s complement mantissa and a 5-bit,
two’s complement exponent. The format of the two
data bytes is shown below:
PMBus Addressing
The power module can be addressed through the
PMBus using a device address. The module has 64
possible addresses (0 to 63 in decimal) which can be
set using resistors connected from the ADDR0 and
ADDR1 pins to SIG_GND. Note that some of these
addresses (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 12, 40, 44,
45, 55 in decimal) are reserved according to the
SMBus specifications and may not be useable. The
address is set in the form of two octal (0 to 7) digits,
with each pin setting one digit. The ADDR1 pin sets
the high order digit and ADDR0 sets the low order
digit. The resistor values suggested for each digit are
shown in Table 4 (1% tolerance resistors are
recommended). Note that if either address resistor
value is outside the range specified in Table 4, the
module will respond to address 127.
The user must know which I2C addresses are reserved
in a system for special functions and set the address of
the module to avoid interfering with other system
operations. Both 100kHz and 400kHz bus speeds are
supported by the module. Connection for the PMBus
interface should follow the High Power DC
specifications given in section 3.1.3 in the SMBus
specification V2.0 for the 400kHz bus speed or the
Low Power DC specifications in section 3.1.2. The
complete SMBus specification is available from the
SMBus web site, smbus.org.

PMBus Enabled On/Off
The module can also be turned on and off via the
PMBus interface. The OPERATION command is used
to actually turn the module on and off via the PMBus,
while the ON_OFF_CONFIG command configures the
combination of analog ON/OFF pin input and PMBus
commands needed to turn the module on and off. Bit
[7] in the OPERATION command data byte enables
the module, with the following functions:
0 : Output is disabled
1 : Output is enabled
This module uses the lower five bits of the
ON_OFF_CONFIG data byte to set various ON/OFF
options as follows:

PMBus Adjustable Soft Start Rise Time
The soft start rise time can be adjusted in the module
via PMBus. When setting this parameter, make sure
that the charging current for output capacitors can be
delivered by the module in addition to any load current
to avoid nuisance tripping of the overcurrent protection
circuitry during startup. The TON_RISE command sets
the rise time in ms, and allows choosing soft start
times between 600us and 9ms, with possible values
listed in Table 5. Note that the exponent is fixed at -4
(decimal) and the upper two bits of the mantissa are
also fixed at 0.

Output Voltage Adjustment Using the PMBus
The VOUT_SCALE_LOOP parameter is important for
a number of PMBus commands related to output
voltage trimming, margining, over/under voltage
protection and the PGOOD thresholds. The output
voltage of the module is set as the combination of the
voltage divider formed by RTrim and a 20k upper
divider resistor inside the module, and the internal
reference voltage of the module. The reference voltage
VREF is nominally set at 600mV, and the output
regulation voltage is then given by
Hence the module output voltage is dependent on the
value of RTrim which is connected external to the
module. The information on the output voltage divider
ratio is conveyed to the module through the
VOUT_SCALE_LOOP parameter which is calculated
as follows:
The VOUT_SCALE_LOOP parameter is specified
using the “Linear” format and two bytes. The upper five
bits [7:3] of the high byte are used to set the exponent
which is fixed at –9 (decimal). The remaining three bits
of the high byte [2:0] and the eight bits of the lower
byte are used for the mantissa. The default value of
the mantissa is 00100000000 corresponding to 256
(decimal), corresponding to a divider ratio of 0.5. The

Data Sheet
maximum value of the mantissa is 512 corresponding
to a divider ratio of 1. Note that the resolution of the
VOUT_SCALE_LOOP command is 0.2%.
When PMBus commands are used to trim or margin
the output voltage, the value of VREF is what is changed
inside the module, which in turn changes the regulated
output voltage of the module.
The nominal output voltage of the module can be
adjusted with a minimum step size of 0.4% over a
±25% range from nominal using the VOUT_TRIM
command over the PMBus.
The VOUT_TRIM command is used to apply a fixed
offset voltage to the output voltage command value
using the “Linear” mode with the exponent fixed at –10
(decimal). The value of the offset voltage is given by
This offset voltage is added to the voltage set through
the divider ratio and nominal VREF to produce the
trimmed output voltage. The valid range in two’s
complement for this command is –4000h to 3999h.
The high order two bits of the high byte must both be
either 0 or 1. If a value outside of the +/-25%
adjustment range is given with this command, the
module will set it’s output voltage to the nominal value
(as if VOUT_TRIM had been set to 0), assert
SMBALRT#, set the CML bit in STATUS_BYTE and
the invalid data bit in STATUS_CML.
Output Voltage Margining Using the PMBus
The module can also have its output voltage margined
via PMBus commands. The command
VOUT_MARGIN_HIGH sets the margin high voltage,
while the command VOUT_MARGIN_LOW sets the
margin low voltage. Both the VOUT_MARGIN_HIGH
and VOUT_MARGIN_LOW commands use the
“Linear” mode with the exponent fixed at –10
(decimal). Two bytes are used for the mantissa with
the upper bit [7] of the high byte fixed at 0. The actual
margined output voltage is a combination of the
VOUT_MARGIN_HIGH or VOUT_MARGIN_LOW and
the VOUT_TRIM values as shown below.
Note that the sum of the margin and trim voltages
cannot be outside the ±25% window around the
nominal output voltage. The data associated with
VOUT_MARGIN_HIGH and VOUT_MARGIN_LOW
can be stored to non-volatile memory using the
STORE_DEFAULT_ALL command.
The module is commanded to go to the margined high
or low voltages using the OPERATION command. Bits
[5:2] are used to enable margining as follows:
00XX : Margin Off
0101 : Margin Low (Ignore Fault)
0110 : Margin Low (Act on Fault)
1001 : Margin High (Ignore Fault)
1010 : Margin High (Act on Fault)
PMBus Adjustable Overcurrent Warning
The module can provide an overcurrent warning via
the PMBus. The threshold for the overcurrent warning
can be set using the parameter
IOUT_OC_WARN_LIMIT. This command uses the
“Linear” data format with a two byte data word where
the upper five bits [7:3] of the high byte represent the
exponent and the remaining three bits of the high byte
[2:0] and the eight bits in the low byte represent the
mantissa. The exponent is fixed at –1 (decimal). The
upper five bits of the mantissa are fixed at 0 while the
lower six bits are programmable. For production codes
after April 2013, the value for IOUT_OC_WARN_LIMIT
will be fixed at 5.0A. For earlier production codes the
actual value for IOUT_OC_WARN_LIMIT will vary from
module to module due to calibration during production
testing. The resolution of this warning limit is 500mA.
The value of the IOUT_OC_WARN_LIMIT can be
stored to non-volatile memory using the
STORE_DEFAULT_ALL command.
Temperature Status via PMBus
The module can provide information related to
temperature of the module through the
STATUS_TEMPERATURE command. The command
returns information about whether the pre-set over
temperature fault threshold and/or the warning
threshold have been exceeded.
PMBus Adjustable Output Over and Under
Voltage Protection
The module has output over and under voltage
protection capability. The PMBus command
VOUT_OV_FAULT_LIMIT is used to set the output
over voltage threshold from four possible values:
108%, 110%, 112% or 115% of the commanded output
voltage. The command VOUT_UV_FAULT_LIMIT sets
the threshold that causes an output under voltage fault
and can also be selected from four possible values:
92%, 90%, 88% or 85%. The default values are 112%
and 88% of commanded output voltage. Both
commands use two data bytes formatted as two’s
complement binary integers. The “Linear” mode is

effective over or under voltage trip points given by:
Values within the supported range for over and
undervoltage detection thresholds will be set to the
nearest fixed percentage. Note that the correct value
for VOUT_SCALE_LOOP must be set in the module
for the correct over or under voltage trip points to be
calculated.
In addition to adjustable output voltage protection, the
3A Digital Tomodachi module can also be
programmed for the response to the fault. The
VOUT_OV_FAULT_RESPONSE and
VOUT_UV_FAULT_RESPONSE commands specify
the response to the fault. Both these commands use a
single data byte with the possible options as shown
below.
1. Continue operation without interruption
(Bits [7:6] = 00, Bits [5:3] = xxx)
2. Continue for four switching cycles and then shut
down if the fault is still present, followed by no
restart or continuous restart
(Bits [7:6] = 01, Bits [5:3] = 000 means no restart,
Bits [5:3] = 111 means continuous restart)
3. Immediate shut down followed by no restart or
continuous restart
(Bits [7:6] = 10, Bits [5:3] = 000 means no restart,
Bits [5:3] = 111 means continuous restart).
4. Module output is disabled when the fault is
present and the output is enabled when the fault
no longer exists
(Bits [7:6] = 11, Bits [5:3] = xxx).
Note that separate response choices are possible for
output over voltage or under voltage faults.
PMBus Adjustable Input Undervoltage
Lockout
The module allows adjustment of the input under
voltage lockout and hysteresis. The command VIN_ON
allows setting the input voltage turn on threshold, while
the VIN_OFF command sets the input voltage turn off
threshold. For the VIN_ON command, possible values
are 2.75V, and 3V to 14V in 0.5V steps. For the
VIN_OFF command, possible values are 2.5V to 14V
in 0.5V steps.
If other values are entered for either command, they
will be mapped to the closest of the allowed values.
VIN_ON must be set higher than VIN_OFF.
Attempting to write either VIN_ON lower than
VIN_OFF or VIN_OFF higher than VIN_ON results in
the new value being rejected, SMBALERT being
asserted along with the CML bit in STATUS_BYTE and
the invalid data bit in STATUS_CML.
Both the VIN_ON and VIN_OFF commands use the
“Linear” format with two data bytes. The upper five bits
represent the exponent (fixed at -2) and the remaining
11 bits represent the mantissa. For the mantissa, the
four most significant bits are fixed at 0.
Power Good
The module provides a Power Good (PGOOD) signal
that is implemented with an open-drain output to
indicate that the output voltage is within the regulation
limits of the power module. The PGOOD signal will be
de-asserted to a low state if any condition such as
overtemperature, overcurrent or loss of regulation
occurs that would result in the output voltage going
outside the specified thresholds. The PGOOD
thresholds are user selectable via the PMBus (the
default values are as shown in the Feature
Specifications Section). Each threshold is set up
symmetrically above and below the nominal value. The
POWER_GOOD_ON command sets the output
voltage level above which PGOOD is asserted (lower
threshold). For example, with a 1.2V nominal output
voltage, the POWER_GOOD_ON threshold can set
the lower threshold to 1.14 or 1.1V. Doing this will
automatically set the upper thresholds to 1.26 or 1.3V.
The POWER_GOOD_OFF command sets the level
below which the PGOOD command is de-asserted.
This command also sets two thresholds symmetrically
placed around the nominal output voltage. Normally,
the POWER_GOOD_ON threshold is set higher than
the POWER_GOOD_OFF threshold.
Both POWER_GOOD_ON and POWER_GOOD_OFF
commands use the “Linear” format with the exponent
fixed at –10 (decimal). The two thresholds are given by
Both commands use two data bytes with bit [7] of the
high byte fixed at 0, while the remaining bits are r/w
and used to set the mantissa using two’s complement
representation. Both commands also use the
VOUT_SCALE_LOOP parameter so it must be set
correctly. The default value of POWER_GOOD_ON is
set at 1.1035V and that of the POWER_GOOD_OFF is
set at 1.08V. The values associated with these
commands can be stored in non-volatile memory using
the STORE_DEFAULT_ALL command.
The PGOOD terminal can be connected through a
pullup resistor (suggested value 100K) to a source of
5VDC or lower.

Data Sheet
Measurement of Output Current, Output
Voltage and Input Voltage
The module is capable of measuring key module
parameters such as output current and voltage and
input voltage and providing this information through the
PMBus interface. Roughly every 200us, the module
makes 16 measurements each of output current,
voltage and input voltage. Average values of of these
16 measurements are then calculated and placed in
the appropriate registers. The values in the registers
can then be read using the PMBus interface.
Measuring Output Current Using the PMBus
The module measures current by using the inductor
winding resistance as a current sense element. The
inductor winding resistance is then the current gain
factor used to scale the measured voltage into a
current reading. This gain factor is the argument of the
IOUT_CAL_GAIN command, and consists of two bytes
in the linear data format. The exponent uses the upper
five bits [7:3] of the high data byte in two-s complement
format and is fixed at –15 (decimal). The remaining 11
bits in two’s complement binary format represent the
mantissa.
The current measurement accuracy is also improved
by each module being calibrated during manufacture
with the offset in the current reading. The
IOUT_CAL_OFFSET command is used to store and
read the current offset. The argument for this
command consists of two bytes composed of a 5-bit
exponent (fixed at -4d) and a 11-bit mantissa. This
command has a resolution of 62.5mA and a range of
-4000mA to +3937.5mA. During manufacture, each
module is calibrated by measuring and storing the
current gain factor and offset into non-volatile
storage.
The READ_IOUT command provides module average
output current information. This command only
supports positive or current sourced from the module.
If the converter is sinking current a reading of 0 is
provided. The READ_IOUT command returns two
bytes of data in the linear data format. The exponent
uses the upper five bits [7:3] of the high data byte in
two-s complement format and is fixed at –4 (decimal).
The remaining 11 bits in two’s complement binary
format represent the mantissa with the 11th bit fixed at
0 since only positive numbers are considered valid.
Note that the current reading provided by the module is
not corrected for temperature. The temperature
corrected current reading for module temperature
TModule can be estimated using the following equation
where IOUT_CORR is the temperature corrected value of
the current measurement, IREAD_OUT is the module
current measurement value, TIND is the temperature of
the inductor winding on the module. Since it may be
difficult to measure TIND, it may be approximated by an
estimate of the module temperature.
Measuring Output Voltage Using the PMBus
The module can provide output voltage information
using the READ_VOUT command. The command
returns two bytes of data all representing the mantissa
while the exponent is fixed at -10 (decimal).
During manufacture of the module, offset and gain
correction values are written into the non-volatile
memory of the module. The command
VOUT_CAL_OFFSET can be used to read and/or write
the offset (two bytes consisting of a 16-bit mantissa in
two’s complement format) while the exponent is always
fixed at -10 (decimal). The allowed range for this offset
correction is -125 to 124mV. The command
VOUT_CAL_GAIN can be used to read and/or write
the gain correction - two bytes consisting of a five-bit
exponent (fixed at -8) and a 11-bit mantissa. The range
of this correction factor is -0.125V to +0.121V, with a
resolution of 0.004V. The corrected output voltage
reading is then given by:
Measuring Input Voltage Using the PMBus
The module can provide output voltage information
using the READ_VIN command. The command returns
two bytes of data in the linear format. The upper five
bits [7:3] of the high data form the two’s complement
representation of the mantissa which is fixed at –5
(decimal). The remaining 11 bits are used for two’s
complement representation of the mantissa, with the
11th bit fixed at zero since only positive numbers are
valid.
During module manufacture, offset and gain correction
values are written into the non-volatile memory of the
module. The command VIN_CAL_OFFSET can be
used to read and/or write the offset - two bytes
consisting of a five-bit exponent (fixed at -5) and a
11-bit mantissa in two’s complement format. The
allowed range for this offset correction is -2 to 1.968V,
and the resolution is 32mV. The command
VIN_CAL_GAIN can be used to read and/or write the
gain correction - two bytes consisting of a five-bit
exponent (fixed at -8) and a 11-bit mantissa. The range

transient response to load step changes, start-up and
shutdown characteristics.
Figures showing data plots and waveforms for different
output voltages are presented in the following pages.
Thermal Considerations
Power modules operate in a variety of thermal
environments; however, sufficient cooling should
always be provided to help ensure reliable operation.
Considerations include ambient temperature, airflow,
module power dissipation, and the need for increased
reliability. A reduction in the operating temperature of
the module will result in an increase in reliability. The
thermal data presented here is based on physical
measurements taken in a wind tunnel. The test set-up
is shown in Fig-13. The preferred airflow direction for
the module is in Fig-14.
The maximum available load current, for any given set
of conditions, is defined as the lower of:
(i) The output current at which the temperature of any
component reaches 120°C, or
(ii) The current rating of the converter (3A)
A maximum component temperature of 120°C should
not be exceeded in order to operate within the derating
curves. Thus, the temperature at the thermocouple
location shown in Fig-14 should not exceed 120°C in
normal operation.
Note that continuous operation beyond the derated
current as specified by the derating curves may lead to
degradation in performance and reliability of the
converter and may result in permanent damage.
The main heat dissipation method of this converter is
to transfer its heat to the system board. Thus, if the
temperature of the system board goes high, even with
the low ambient temperature, it may exceed the
guaranteed temperature of components.

Data Sheet
Surface Mount Information
Pick and Place
The 3A Digital Tomodachi modules use an open
frame construction and are designed for a fully
automated assembly process. The modules are fitted
with a label designed to provide a large surface area
for pick and place operations. The label meets all the
requirements for surface mount processing, as well as
safety standards, and is able to withstand reflow
temperatures of up to 300°C. The label also carries
product information such as product code, serial
number and the location of manufacture.
Nozzle Recommendations
The module weight has been kept to a minimum by
using open frame construction. Variables such as
nozzle size, tip style, vacuum pressure and placement
speed should be considered to optimize this process.
The minimum recommended inside nozzle diameter for
reliable operation is 3mm. The maximum nozzle outer
diameter, which will safely fit within the allowable
component spacing, is 7mm.
Bottom Side / First Side Assembly
This module is not recommended for assembly on the
bottom side of a customer board. If such an assembly
is attempted, components may fall off the module
during the second reflow process.
Lead Free Soldering
The Digital 3A modules are lead-free (Pb-free) and
RoHS compliant and are both forward and backward
compatible in a Pb-free and a SnPb soldering process.
Failure to observe the instructions below may result in
the failure of or cause damage to the modules and can
adversely affect long-term reliability.
Pb-free Reflow Profile
Power Systems will comply with J-STD-020 Rev. C
(Moisture/Reflow Sensitivity Classification for
Nonhermetic Solid State Surface Mount Devices) for
both Pb-free solder profiles and MSL classification
procedures. This standard provides a recommended
forced-air-convection reflow profile based on the
volume and thickness of the package (table 5-2). The
suggested Pb-free solder paste is Sn/Ag/Cu (SAC).
The recommended linear reflow profile using Sn/Ag/Cu
solder is shown in Fig-51. Soldering outside of the
recommended profile requires testing to verify results
and performance.
It is recommended that the pad layout include a test
pad where the output pin is in the ground plane. The
thermocouple should be attached to this test pad since
this will be the coolest solder joints. The temperature of
this point should be:
Maximum peak temperature is 260 C.
Minimum temperature is 235 C.
Dwell time above 217 C: 60 seconds minimum
Dwell time above 235 C: 5 to 15 second
MSL Rating
The 3A Digital Tomodachi modules have a MSL rating
of 2a.
Storage and Handling
The recommended storage environment and handling
procedures for moisture-sensitive surface mount
packages is detailed in J-STD-033 Rev. A (Handling,
Packing, Shipping and Use of Moisture/Reflow
Sensitive Surface Mount Devices). Moisture barrier
bags (MBB) with desiccant are required for MSL
ratings of 2 or greater. These sealed packages
should not be broken until time of use. Once the
original package is broken, the floor life of the product
at conditions of 30°C and 60% relative humidity
varies according to the MSL rating (see J-STD-033A).
The shelf life for dry packed SMT packages will be a
minimum of 12 months from the bag seal date, when
stored at the following conditions: < 40°C, < 90%
relative humidity.
Post Solder Cleaning and Drying
Considerations
Post solder cleaning is usually the final circuit-board
assembly process prior to electrical board testing. The
result of inadequate cleaning and drying can affect
both the reliability of a power module and the testability
of the finished circuit-board assembly. For guidance on
