Smart Power Stage (SPS) Portfolio Next-Generation, Multi-Chip Module The SPS module family is a next-generation, ultra-compact, integrated MOSFET plus driver power stage solution. Compared to competitive modules, the family offers three-percent greater efficiency, unique monitoring and protection features, all in 33-percent less space. This family leverages Fairchild’s DrMOS expertise to deliver high efficiency, high-power density and high-switching frequency in applications such as synchronous buck DC-DC converters for high-performance computing and telecom systems. With an integrated approach, the complete switching power stage is optimized for driver and MOSFET dynamic performance, system inductance and power MOSFET RDS(ON). SPS modules use our highperformance PowerTrench® MOSFET technology to reduce ringing, eliminating the need for a snubber circuit in most buck converter applications. Unique Features • Ultra-compact 5 mm x 5 mm x 0.8 mm PQFN with Dual Cool™ packaging technology • Three-state 3.3V PWM and 5V PWM input gate driver • Integrated Zero Cross Detect (ZCD) or FCCM circuitry for better light load efficiency • Dual-mode enable and catastrophic fault reporting pin • Under-voltage lockout (UVLO) protection • Optimized for switching frequencies, up to 2 MHz • Low shutdown current < 3 μA • Improved power stage dynamic performance, system inductance • PowerTrench® MOSFET technology to reduce ringing, eliminate snubber in most buck converter designs • Thermal monitoring, programmable thermal shutdown DC-DC Power Delivery Applications • Servers and workstations • Telecom ASIC power • High-performance notebooks • Game consoles
