Product details
Overview
IR38265MTRPBFAUMA1 from Infineon Technologies is a 30A single-input synchronous buck DC-DC converter with integrated OptiMOS™ power stages, PVID interface, and full PMBus/I²C programmability. It delivers 0.5V–0.875×PVIN output voltage with ±0.5% reference accuracy, supports 150 kHz–1.5 MHz switching frequency, and operates from 5.3V–16V input using internal LDO biasing - enabling single-rail 16V system operation in Intel VR13/VR12.5 CPU voltage regulation.
For engineers reviewing the IR38265MTRPBFAUMA1 datasheet, IR38265MTRPBFAUMA1 pinout, IR38265MTRPBFAUMA1 application, or IR38265MTRPBFAUMA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its thermally compensated current limit, true differential remote sensing, I²C-configurable fault thresholds (OVP/OCP/UVLO/thermal), and post-package trimmed dead-time for high-efficiency, high-current point-of-load conversion in server and telecom power delivery.
Technical Context
The IR38265 implements a voltage-mode PWM controller with feedforward line regulation and an integrated dual-MOSFET power stage optimized for low-duty-cycle, high-current operation. Its on-die error amplifier features 100–120 dB DC gain, 20–40 MHz GBWP, and rail-to-rail output swing (100 mV–4.3 V), supporting stable loop compensation across wide load and input transients.
It integrates dedicated analog sensing paths for input voltage, output voltage, output current, and die temperature - digitized via on-chip ADC and reported over I²C. Fault response includes hiccup-mode OCP, programmable UVEN threshold (0.35–0.65 V), and independent PGOOD logic that remains active even when ENABLE is deasserted.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Current | 30 A continuous - supports high-current CPU core/non-core rails without external current sharing. |
| Input Voltage Range | 5.3 V–16 V with internal LDO - eliminates need for auxiliary bias supply in 12 V/15 V bus systems. |
| Output Voltage Range | 0.5 V–0.875×PVIN - enables adaptive scaling for VR13/VR12.5 compliance down to sub-0.6 V. |
| Reference Accuracy | ±0.5% at 0°C–85°C - ensures tight output regulation under nominal thermal conditions. |
| Switching Frequency | 150 kHz–1.5 MHz, I²C-programmable - allows optimization of size (inductor/capacitor) vs. efficiency vs. EMI. |
| RDS(on) Top/Bottom | 2.2 mΩ / 0.78 mΩ @ 25°C - minimizes conduction loss and thermal rise at 30 A load. |
| Junction Temp Range | −40°C to +125°C - qualified for industrial and server-grade thermal environments. |
Pinout & Package
IR38265MTRPBFAUMA1 is housed in a thermally enhanced 5 mm × 7 mm PQFN package with exposed thermal pad (PGND-connected) and 26-pin layout optimized for high-current power delivery and signal integrity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| PVIN | Main power input for high-side MOSFET | Bypassed directly to PGND; supports up to 16 V with 25 V absolute max rating. |
| BOOT | High-side gate driver bootstrap supply | Requires 0.1 µF capacitor to SW; 1 Ω series resistor mandatory if PVIN > 14 V. |
| ENABLE | Global enable with voltage monitoring | UVLO thresholds: 0.35–0.65 V; leakage < 1 µA ensures low standby power. |
| Vsns / RS+ / RS− | Differential remote sense inputs | Enables true Kelvin sensing at load; isolates feedback from PCB IR drop. |
| VIDSEL0–2 | 3-bit parallel VID select lines | Directly map to internal voltage registers; pulled to VCC via 4.99 kΩ resistors. |
| SDA / SCL | I²C bidirectional data/clock | Supports Fast Mode (400 kHz) and PMBus commands for sequencing, margining, and telemetry. |
| PGOOD | Open-drain power-good status | Active-high after valid output; remains functional even when ENABLE = low. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated OptiMOS™ Power Stage | Co-packaged top/bottom MOSFETs with RDS(on) of 2.2 mΩ / 0.78 mΩ reduce board area and parasitic losses. |
| True Differential Remote Sensing | RS+/RS− inputs reject common-mode noise and PCB voltage drop, ensuring accurate load regulation. |
| I²C-Configurable Fault Thresholds | OVP, OCP, UVLO, and thermal shutdown thresholds are digitally adjustable - enabling system-specific safety margins. |
| Enhanced Pre-Bias Start-up | Allows safe startup into pre-biased output without reverse current or overshoot - critical for multi-rail sequencing. |
| Post-Package Trimmed Dead-Time | Minimizes shoot-through risk while maximizing efficiency; calibrated per unit during final test. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-current, I²C-programmable buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ISL9122AIRTZ-T7A | 20 A rated; no integrated MOSFETs - requires external power stage; supports only I²C (no PVID). | Limited to lower-current SoC rails; lacks VR13-compliant VID decoding and differential remote sense. | Select when board space permits discrete FETs and VR13 compatibility is not required. |
| MP8770GQ-Z | 30 A rated; no PMBus/I²C telemetry - only basic enable/fault pins; fixed 500 kHz–2.2 MHz frequency. | Suitable for cost-sensitive industrial rails but cannot report real-time current/temp or support margining. | Select when telemetry, sequencing, and digital fault tuning are unnecessary. |

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable PVIN voltage for reliable operation?
The absolute maximum PVIN rating is 25 V, but recommended operating range is 1.5 V–16 V. Exceeding 16 V violates the Recommended Operating Conditions and risks violating the BOOT-to-SW voltage limit (6.5 V AC peak). For PVIN > 14 V, a 1 Ω resistor must be placed in series with the BOOT capacitor to limit inrush current and prevent overstress.
How does the IR38265 handle startup into a pre-biased output?
The IR38265 implements enhanced pre-bias start-up logic that monitors VOUT before enabling the high-side switch. It delays gate drive until the output voltage falls below the target setpoint, preventing reverse current flow and output overshoot. This behavior is hardware-automated and requires no external configuration or I²C command.
Can the PGOOD signal remain active when ENABLE is deasserted?
Yes. The PGOOD circuitry is powered independently from the main control logic and remains fully operational even when ENABLE is low. It continues to monitor output voltage against programmable OVP/UVP thresholds and asserts open-drain PGOOD only when VOUT is within the valid window - providing fail-safe power-status indication during standby or sequencing phases.
What is the purpose of the ADDR pin, and how is it configured?
The ADDR pin sets the LSB of the 7-bit I²C address by connecting a resistor to LGND. A 10 kΩ resistor yields address 0x60; 100 kΩ yields 0x61; open circuit yields 0x62. The device supports up to 16 unique addresses via external resistor selection, enabling multiple IR38265s on the same I²C bus without address conflict.
