Description
The NB685A provides a complete power supply with the highest power density for DDR3, DDR3L, LPDDR3, and DDR4 memory. It integrates a high-frequency, synchronous, rectified, step-down, switch-mode converter (VDDQ) with a 1 A sink/source LDO (VTT) and buffered low noise reference (VTTREF).
The NB685A operates at high efficiency over a wide output current load range based on MPS proprietary switching loss reduction technology and internal low Ron power MOSFETs.
Adaptive constant-on-time (COT) control mode provides fast transient response and eases loop stabilization. The DC auto-tune loop provides good load and line regulation.
The VTT LDO provides 1 A sink/source current capability and requires only a 22 μF ceramic capacitor. The VTTREF tracks VDDQ/2 with excellent 1% accuracy.
Full protection features include OC limit, OVP, UVP, over-temperature warning (OTW), and thermal shutdown.
The converter requires a minimum number of external components and is available in a QFN 3mm x 3mm package.

MEETING THE IMPEDANCE MASK: STRATEGIES FOR PDN DESIGN AND OPTIMIZATIONARTICLEIn telecommunication applications, target impedance serves as a crucial benchmark for PDN design. It ensures that the die operates within an acceptable level of rail voltage noise, even under the worst-case transient current scenarios, by defining the maximum allowable PDN impedance for the power rail on the die. This article will focus on the optimization techniques to meet the target impedance ...
