XRP7724
Quad Channel Digital PWM/PFM
Programmable Power Management System
October 2012
Rev. 1.0.1
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The XRP7724 is a quad channel Digital Pulse
Width Modulated (DPWM) Step down (buck)
controller. A wide 4.75V to 5.5V and 5.5V to
25V input voltage dual range allows for single
supply operation from standard power rails.
With integrated FET gate drivers, two LDOs for
standby power and a 105kHz to 1.23MHz
independent channel to channel programmable
constant operating frequency, the XRP7724
reduces overall component count and solution
footprint and optimizes conversion efficiencies.
A selectable digital Pulse Frequency Mode
(DPFM) capable of better than 80% efficiency
at light current load and low operating current
allow for portable and Energy Star compliant
applications. Each XRP7724 output channel is
individually programmable as low as 0.6V with
a resolution as fine as 2.5mV, and
configurable for precise soft start and soft stop
sequencing, including delay and ramp control.
The XRP7724 operations are fully controlled
via a SMBus-compliant I
2
C interface allowing
for
advanced
local
and/or
remote
reconfiguration, full performance monitoring
and reporting as well as fault handling.
Built-in independent output over voltage, over
temperature, over-current and under voltage
lockout protections insure safe operation
under abnormal operating conditions.
The XRP7724 is offered in a RoHS compliant,
“green”/halogen free 44-pin TQFN package.

ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Specifications with standard type are for an Operating Junction Temperature of T
J
= 25°C only; limits applying over the full
Operating Junction Temperature range are denoted by a “•”. Minimum and Maximum limits are guaranteed through test,
design, or statistical correlation. Typical values represent the most likely parametric norm at T
J
= 25°C, and are provided for
reference purposes only. Unless otherwise indicated, V
CC
= 5.5V to 25V, 5V EXT open. Note that in cases where there is a
discrepancy in values shown in this section and other sections of the datasheet, the values in the Electrical Specification
section shall be deemed correct and supersede the other values.
