Product details
Overview
IR3531MTRPBF from Infineon Technologies is a 4+1 phase dual-output voltage regulator controller IC for high-efficiency, high-transient-performance CPU/GPU core power delivery. It supports up to 210W total output, delivers 0.5% system set-point accuracy, enables SVID margining on both rails, and integrates a 6.8V/0.8A bias buck regulator. Used in server VRMs with PowIRstages or discrete IR3535 drivers.
For engineers reviewing the IR3531MTRPBF datasheet, IR3531MTRPBF pinout, IR3531MTRPBF application, or IR3531MTRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-rail SVID compliance, body-braking™ and Turbo™ transient response features, 250 kHz–1.5 MHz per-phase frequency programmability, and thermal compensation via single NTC.
Technical Context
The IR3531 implements voltage-mode modulation with non-linear transient enhancement (Turbo™ for load-on, Body Braking™ for load-off), enabling fast response without complex loop tuning. It uses tri-state PWM outputs for diode emulation and supports sink/source tracking across two independent output rails.
Current sensing is performed per-phase via IINx inputs and reported through IMON/IMON_R1 pins; thermal compensation and over-current protection are derived from a shared TSENS network and VDRP/VDRP1 signals. The controller communicates with host processors via SVID (VCLK/VDIO/ALERT#/VRHOT#) and supports dynamic phase shedding via PHSSHED.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Configuration | Dual rail: 4-phase + 1-phase (asymmetric 4+1 topology for core + SoC or I/O rail) |
| Switching Frequency Range | 250 kHz to 1.5 MHz per phase, synchronized via external SCLK or internal ROSC resistor |
| System Accuracy | ±0.5% overall set-point accuracy including DAC, feedback, and thermal drift compensation |
| Bias Regulator | Integrated 6.8V/0.8A buck converter for powering control/driver ICs - eliminates external bias supply |
| Protection Features | Over-current (per-phase & rail), over-voltage, over-temperature, open remote sense, open-loop detection |
| Thermal Compensation | Single NTC thermistor input (TSENS) used for current reporting, OC threshold scaling, and load-line compensation |
| SVID Compliance | Full SVID v3.0 support: margining, ALERT#, VRHOT#, VRRDY#, dynamic VID updates, and address programming (ADDR pin) |
Pinout & Package
IR3531MTRPBF is housed in a thermally enhanced 48-pin MLPQ package (7 mm × 7 mm, 0.5 mm pitch), with exposed thermal pad for PCB-level heat dissipation. Pin layout optimized for multi-phase layout symmetry and remote-sense routing.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| EN | Global enable input | Active-high logic input; grounding disables all regulators - must be pulled high or driven, not floated |
| PWM1–PWM4, PWM_R1 | Phase gate drive outputs | Tri-state PWM outputs for Rail0 (4 phases) and Rail1 (1 phase); connect to driver IC inputs or LGND to disable phase |
| IIN1–IIN4, IIN_R1 | Per-phase current monitor inputs | Accept current-sense signals from PowIRstages or IR3535 drivers; enable per-phase current sharing and reporting |
| VDRP / VDRP1 | DCR-compensated current signal outputs | Buffered, scaled, thermally compensated current mirrors used to program output impedance via FB/FB1 resistors |
| TSENS | Thermal network interface | Analog input for single NTC thermistor - feeds thermal compensation, OC threshold scaling, and load-line adjustment |
| VCLK / VDIO / ALERT# / VRHOT# | SVID bus interface | Standard SVID v3.0 signaling: clock/data bidirectional, interrupt/alert, and thermal alert outputs for host processor coordination |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Voltage Mode Modulation | Stable loop design with predictable transient behavior - avoids instability risks of current mode at high bandwidth |
| Turbo™ Transient Response | Automatic full-phase activation during load step-up minimizes undershoot - no host intervention required |
| Body Braking™ | Low-side MOSFET forced turn-off during load step-down accelerates inductor energy dissipation - reduces overshoot |
| Sink/Source Tracking | Independent rail tracking capability enables precise voltage sequencing between core and I/O rails during startup/shutdown |
| Pre-bias Start-up | Safe start-up into pre-charged output capacitors - prevents reverse current flow and system latch-up |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-output multiphase controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IR35203MTRPBF | 6+1 phase, higher current capability (up to 300W), adds PMBus v1.3 support and digital telemetry | Targeted at next-gen servers requiring telemetry logging, black-box fault capture, and tighter PMBus integration | Select when digital diagnostics, long-term health monitoring, or PMBus host control are required - not drop-in compatible due to pinout and protocol differences |
| UCC39461PWR | 4+1 phase, analog-only interface (no SVID), fixed 500 kHz switching, no Turbo™/Body Braking™ | Designed for cost-sensitive industrial or telecom systems where SVID is unnecessary and transient performance requirements are relaxed | Choose for analog-control legacy designs or where SVID complexity and advanced transient features are not needed |

FAQ
What is the function of the PHSSHED pin?
The PHSSHED pin is an analog input (0–VCC) that dynamically controls phase shedding: 0–25% VCC enables all phases, 25–50% disables one phase, 50–75% disables two, and 75–100% disables three. It allows host firmware or thermal management logic to reduce power loss during light-load conditions while maintaining regulation stability.
Does IR3531MTRPBF support remote sensing on both outputs?
Yes - IR3531MTRPBF provides full differential remote sensing for both rails: VOSEN+/VOSEN− for Rail0 and VOSEN1+/VOSEN1− for Rail1. Each pair connects directly to the load point to compensate for PCB trace resistance, ensuring accurate voltage regulation at the point-of-load.
How does the integrated bias regulator operate?
The integrated 6.8V/0.8A buck regulator uses SW and VCC pins internally, with VCC serving as both output and bias supply for internal circuitry. It eliminates the need for an external 6.8V source, simplifying board layout and reducing BOM count - especially beneficial when powering companion IR3535 drivers or PowIRstages.
Can IR3531MTRPBF be used without SVID communication?
Yes - SVID is optional. The controller supports standalone analog operation using fixed VID resistors on ADDR pins and manual configuration of ROSC, ICCP, and TRACK references. All core regulation, protection, and transient features remain fully functional without SVID host interaction.
