The EM2120 is a fully integrated 20A PowerSoC
synchronous buck converter. It features an advanced
digital controller, gate drivers, synchronous MOSFET
switches, and a high-performance inductor. Only
input and output filter capacitors and a few small
signal components are required for a complete
solution. A PMBus version 1.2 compliant interface
provides setup, control, and telemetry.
Differential remote sensing and ±0.5% set-point
accuracy provides precise regulation over line, load
and temperature variation. Very low ripple further
reduces accuracy uncertainty to provide best in class
static regulation for today’s FPGAs, ASICs, processors,
and DDR memory devices.
The EM2120 may be used in standalone mode or
utilizing the PMBus interface for a high degree of
flexibility and programmability. Advanced digital
control techniques ensure stability and excellent
dynamic performance, and eliminate the need for
external compensation components. The PC-based
Intel Enpirion Digital Power Configurator provides a
user-friendly and easy-to-use interface to the device
for communication and configuration.
The EM2120 features high conversion efficiency and
superior thermal performance to minimize thermal
de-rating limitations, which is key to product
reliability and longevity.
