The next few slides will discuss transient and thermal testing that is done, comparing the performance of the digital multiphase controllers paired with Renesas' ISL99227 60 A Smart Power Stage. Competitor A’s family of controllers employs a constant on-time (COT) voltage mode control loop. Competitor B’s controller family supports current mode control. Transient and thermal testing collection was done under the same exact test conditions across all three platform solutions. To ensure accuracy in the data collected and to demonstrate performance advantages, Renesas developed custom boards with the same stack up as the competing platforms. Highlighted in “green” in the table, key features are captured that differentiate the Renesas solution vs. the competition. To re-inforce some of the key advantages: Only the Renesas solution supports a full digital implementation. Both of the competitors support an analog loop, which requires external compensation, adding to design size and latency in the loop response. Renesas' solution supports the latest PMBus and AVSBus interfaces, and supports a wider V_OUT range of up to 3.05 V, making it easier for power designers to design in the Renesas solution to meet their broad power requirements. The Renesas ISL99227 follows the 25 V robust trench FET process, and supports dual side cooling in a proprietary 5 mm x 5 mm QFN package. Both competing solutions follow the 20 V lateral FET process that serves as a risk to high current and fast switching applications. As a result, both competing solutions require external snubber circuitry to reduce the ring in the phase node. The additional circuitry also faces reliability risk due to aging and thermal degradation in time.
