Product details
Overview
L6751TR from STMicroelectronics is a digitally controlled dual PWM controller for Intel VR12 and AMD SVI CPU/memories, supporting up to 6-phase CORE/VDDQ and independent 1-phase GFX/VSA/NB regulation, with 0.5% Vout accuracy, full-differential DCR current sensing, and AVP-based adaptive voltage positioning - deployed in high-current VRMs for server/workstation platforms.
For engineers reviewing the L6751TR datasheet, L6751TR pinout, L6751TR application, or L6751TR equivalent, key selection considerations include SVID/PMbus programmability, dual-oscillator frequency control (multi-phase + single-phase), thermal compensation via single NTC, VFDE/GDC efficiency optimization, and WLPGA72 6×6 mm package compatibility with multi-phase DrMOS drivers.
Technical Context
The L6751TR implements two independent control loops: a 6-phase multi-phase section with per-phase current monitoring, average/peak OC protection, and dynamic phase management (DPM); and a dedicated single-phase section supporting VTT tracking (VDDQ/2) or standalone GFX/VSA regulation. Both sections feature dual remote sense, differential current sensing, and adaptive voltage positioning (AVP).
It integrates VR12-compliant SerialVID (25 MHz, rev 1.5) and AMD SVI interfaces, JMode configuration, PMBus™ command support (READ_VOUT, READ_IOUT, READ_TEMPERATURE), and second-generation LTB Technology® for fast transient response. Thermal compensation uses one NTC network shared across TM, LL, and Imon functions for both sections.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Control Architecture | Dual independent PWM controllers: 6-phase multi-phase + 1-phase single-phase with separate oscillators and feedback loops |
| Vout Accuracy | ±0.5% over line/load/temp - enables tight CPU core voltage regulation required by VR12/SVI specifications |
| Current Sensing | Full-differential DCR sensing per phase - eliminates offset errors and supports accurate per-phase current balancing |
| Thermal Compensation | Single NTC input (TM pin) used for VR_HOT generation, load-line adjustment, and IMON/ILIM scaling - reduces component count vs dual-sensor designs |
| Protection Features | Per-phase and average OC, OV/UV on VOUT, FB disconnection detection, dual VR_RDY signals - ensures robust fault handling in multi-rail systems |
| Interface Support | VR12 SerialVID (25 MHz, rev 1.5), AMD SVI, PMBus™ (READ_VOUT/READ_IOUT/READ_TEMPERATURE), JMode pinstrapping - enables firmware-controlled configuration and telemetry |
| Efficiency Optimization | VFDE (variable frequency diode emulation), GDC (gate drive control), DPM (dynamic phase management) - maintains high efficiency across light-to-heavy loads without sacrificing transient response |
Pinout & Package
Package: WLPGA72 (Wettable Flank Plastic Grid Array), 6 × 6 mm, 0.4 mm pitch, 72-terminal footprint with exposed thermal pad - optimized for high-power density and thermal dissipation in multi-phase VRM layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| PWM1–PWM6 | Multi-phase PWM outputs | Drive external high-side/low-side drivers or DrMOS devices; support HiZ state for phase shedding |
| SPWM / SEN | Single-phase PWM output | Controls GFX/VSA/VTT driver; configurable for tracking or independent regulation |
| CS1P–CS6P / CS1N–CS6N | Differential current sense inputs | Connect to DCR network across each phase inductor - enables per-phase current measurement and sharing |

| VR_RDY / SVR_RDY | Power-good indicators | Open-drain outputs signaling stable multi-phase and single-phase rail delivery - used for system sequencing |
| OSC / SOSC | Oscillator programming pins | Resistor-programmable frequencies: OSC sets multi-phase FSW (up to 1.5 MHz), SOSC sets single-phase FSW (230 kHz default) |
| IMAX/SIMAX / ADDR / BOOT/TMAX | Pinstrapping configuration | Set IMAX limit, device address, boot voltage, and thermal trip threshold without software - enables hardware-first initialization |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| VR12 & AMD SVI Compliance | Fully compliant with Intel VR12 (SVID rev 1.5) and AMD SVI protocols - supports dynamic VID transitions, power-state coordination, and telemetry reporting |
| Dual Independent Oscillators | Separate OSC (multi-phase) and SOSC (single-phase) pins - allows independent frequency tuning (e.g., higher FSW for CORE, lower for VTT) to balance efficiency and EMI |
| Pre-biased Output Management | LSLESS startup mode - safely ramps output from pre-biased condition without reverse current - critical for hot-plug and multi-rail sequencing |
| VFDE + GDC + DPM Co-optimization | Simultaneous variable-frequency diode emulation, gate-drive timing control, and dynamic phase shedding - sustains >90% efficiency from 5% to 100% load |
| Single NTC Thermal Architecture | One NTC sensor feeds TM pin to calibrate thermal compensation for both multi-phase and single-phase sections - reduces BOM cost and layout complexity |
| Full-Differential Current Sense | CSxP/CSxN inputs reject common-mode noise and eliminate PCB trace mismatch errors - improves current-sharing accuracy to ±1.5% across phases |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual PWM VR controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ISL6367IRZ | Single 6+1-phase controller with integrated MOSFET drivers; no separate single-phase section; supports Intel VR12.5 but not AMD SVI | Designed for Intel-only platforms; lacks independent GFX/VTT rail control and SVI bus support | Select when targeting Intel-only designs with space-constrained layouts and no AMD compatibility requirement |
| TPS53689RTAR | 6+1-phase controller with CSD (current-summing differential) sensing; supports PMBus 1.3 and VR12.5; no JMode or single NTC architecture | Higher integration (integrated drivers), but requires dual NTC sensors and lacks VR12 SVID rev 1.5 timing compliance | Choose for new designs prioritizing TI ecosystem tooling and advanced telemetry, accepting trade-offs in legacy VR12/SVI interoperability |
Compared with ISL6367IRZ and TPS53689RTAR, the L6751TR uniquely combines VR12/SVI dual-protocol support, true dual-loop independence (6-phase + 1-phase), single-NTC thermal architecture, and JMode hardware configurability - making it optimal for mixed-architecture platforms requiring long-term supply stability and minimal firmware dependency.

FAQ
What is the maximum supported switching frequency for the multi-phase section?
The L6751TR's multi-phase section supports up to 1.5 MHz switching frequency, set via the OSC pin using an external resistor to GND or VCC5. This high-frequency capability enables smaller output inductors and capacitors while maintaining stable regulation under fast CPU load transients typical in server-class processors.
Does the L6751TR support pre-biased output startup?
Yes, the L6751TR implements LSLESS (Load-Switch Less Startup) mode, allowing safe ramp-up from a pre-biased output voltage without reverse current flow. This is enabled via pinstrapping (JMode) and is essential for systems with multiple power domains that may power up asynchronously.
How does the single NTC thermal architecture function across both power sections?
The TM pin accepts one NTC thermistor placed near the multi-phase power stage; its signal is internally routed to calibrate thermal compensation for VR_HOT assertion, load-line slope (AVP), and scaling of IMON/ILIM thresholds in both multi-phase and single-phase sections - eliminating need for duplicate sensors or external compensation networks.
Can the L6751TR operate without PMBus communication?
Yes - all critical functions (phase count, voltage setpoint, OC limits, thermal thresholds) can be configured via hardware pinstrapping (IMAX, ADDR, BOOT/TMAX, DPM pins). PMBus is optional for runtime telemetry, dynamic reconfiguration, and firmware-based calibration, not required for basic VR12/SVI operation.
