RT8877C
Dual-Output PWM Controller for AMD SVI2 CPU Power
Supply
General Description
The RT8877C is a 4 + 2 phases PWM controller. Moreover,
it is compliant with AMD SVI2 Voltage Regulator
Specification to support both CPU core (VDD) and
Northbridge portion of the CPU (VDDNB). The RT8877C
features CCRCOT (Constant Current Ripple Constant On-
Time) with G-NAVP (Green-Native AVP), which is a
Richtek's proprietary topology. G-NAVP makes it an easy
setting controller to meet all AMD AVP (Active Voltage
Positioning) VDD/VDDNB requirements. The droop is
easily programmed by setting the DC gain of the error
amplifier. With proper compensation, the load transient
response can achieve optimized AVP performance. The
controller also uses the interface to issue VOTF Complete
and to send digitally encoded voltage and current values
for the VDD and VDDNB domains. It can operate in single
phase and diode emulation mode and reach up to 90%
efficiency in different modes according to different loading
conditions. The RT8877C provides special purpose offset
capabilities by pin setting. The RT8877C also provides
power good indication, over current indication (OCP_L)
and dual OCP mechanism for AMD SVI2 CPU core and
NB. It also features complete fault protection functions
including over voltage, under voltage and negative voltage.

Pin Function
PWM Outputs for Channel 1, 2, 3 and 4 of VDD Controller.
VDD Controller On-Time Setting. Connect this pin to the converter input
voltage, Vin, through a resistor, RTON, to set the on-time of UGATE and
also the output voltage ripple of VDD controller.
Negative Current Sense Input of Channel 1, 2, 3 and 4 for VDD Controller.
Positive Current Sense Input of Channel 1, 2, 3 and 4 for VDD Controller.
VDD Controller Voltage Sense Input. This pin is connected to the terminal
of VDD controller output voltage.
Output Voltage Feedback Input of VDD Controller. This pin is the negative
input of the error amplifier for the VDD controller.
Error Amplifier Output Pin of the VDD Controller.
Return Ground of VDD and VDDNB Controller. This pin is the common
negative input of output voltage differential remote sense for VDD and
VDDNB controllers.
Current Monitor Output for the VDD Controller. This pin outputs a voltage
proportional to the output current.
Fixed 0.64V Reference Voltage Output. This voltage is only used to offset
the output voltage of IMON pin and IMONA pin. Connect a 0.47μF
capacitor from this pin to GND.

voltage proportional to the output current.
Processor memory interface power rail and serves as the reference for

SVI pins.
System Power Good Input. If PWROK is low, the SVI interface is disabled
and VR returns to BOOT-VID state with initial load line slope and initial
offset. If PWROK is high, the SVI interface is running and the DAC
decodes the received serial VID codes to determine the output voltage.

and also the internal ramp slew rate setting (RSET and RSETA)
individually for VDD and VDDNB controllers

controllers (QRTH and QRTHA) and also the OCP_TDC trigger delay time
setting for both controllers and over clocking offset enable setting.

output.
Controller Power Supply Input. Connect this pin to 5V with an 1μF or
greater ceramic capacitor for decoupling.
