Product details
Overview
L6758ATR from STMicroelectronics is a VR12-compliant (4+1)-phase dual voltage regulator controller for Intel® desktop/server CPUs, featuring programmable SVID 1.5 interface, 0.5% output voltage accuracy, dual remote sense, and fully-differential DCR current sensing across both multi-phase (2–4 phase) and single-phase (GFX/VSA) sections.
For engineers reviewing the L6758ATR datasheet, L6758ATR pinout, L6758ATR application, or L6758ATR equivalent, key selection considerations include VR12 SVID bus compliance, independent dual-oscillator frequency control (200–667 kHz), second-generation LTB Technology™ for transient response, VFDE/GDC efficiency optimization, and thermal compensation via single NTC per section.
Technical Context
The L6758ATR implements two independent control loops: a multi-phase section supporting 2–4 phases with per-phase current sensing (CS1P–CS4N), LTB-based error amplification, and dynamic phase management (DPM); and a single-phase section with dedicated PWM (SPWM), current monitor (SIMON), and thermal compensation (STM/STCOMP).
It integrates VR12 serial VID bus management with programmable IMAX/TMAX/VBOOT/ADDRESS registers, adaptive voltage positioning (AVP), pre-biased startup, and dual fault protection (OV/UV/FB disconnection, average & per-phase OC). Both sections support differential current sense, dual VR_RDY signals, and 5 V/12 V supply monitoring.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VR12 Compliance | Fully compliant with SVID bus rev 1.5 at 25 MHz; enables dynamic VID transitions and processor power-state coordination. |
| Output Accuracy | ±0.5% over temperature and line/load; ensures tight regulation for high-performance CPU cores and graphics domains. |
| Phase Configuration | Multi-phase: 2–4 phases programmable via PWMx strapping; single-phase: independent 1-phase for GFX/VSA with dedicated SPWM/SENDRV. |
| Current Sensing | Fully-differential DCR sensing on all 4 multi-phase channels (CS1P–CS4N) and single-phase channel (SCSP/SCSN); supports accurate per-phase load sharing. |
| Oscillator Range | Multi-phase OSC: 180–220 kHz base, adjustable to 450–550 kHz; single-phase SOSC: 207–253 kHz base, adjustable to 493–667 kHz. |
| Thermal Compensation | Single NTC per section (TM/TCOMP for multi-phase; STM/STCOMP for single-phase); enables load-line thermal derating without external circuitry. |
| Protection Features | Dual OV/UV/FB disconnect, average + per-phase OC latching, dual VR_RDY assertion, and open-drain VR_HOT alarm with TMAX threshold. |
Pinout & Package
Package: VFQFPN48, 6 × 6 mm, 0.4 mm pitch, exposed thermal pad (GND-connected).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| CS1P–CS4P / CS1N–CS4N | Multi-phase current sense inputs | Differential inputs for DCR-based current measurement on each of up to 4 phases; require RC filter and Rg termination. |
| SCSP / SCSN | Single-phase current sense inputs | Dedicated differential inputs for GFX/VSA phase; enable independent current monitoring and droop control. |
| PWM1–PWM4 / SPWM | Gate drive outputs | CMOS PWM outputs with HiZ capability; strappable for 2/3/4-phase configuration; SPWM controls external single-phase driver. |
| VR_RDY / SVR_RDY | Power-good status | Open-drain ready signals-freed after soft-start completion, pulled low on any fault; require external pull-up ≤3.3 V. |
| IMAX/SIMAX / BOOT/ADDR | Pinstrapped configuration | Resistor-divider inputs defining VR12 registers: IMAX (current limit), TMAX (thermal trip), VBOOT (boot voltage), ADDRESS (SVID device ID). |
| OSC / SOSC | Frequency programming | Analog pins setting switching frequency: OSC for multi-phase (FSW), SOSC for single-phase (FSSW); resistor-to-GND scales frequency linearly. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Second-generation LTB Technology™ | Enhanced loop stability and sub-100 ns transient response; reduces required output capacitance by >30% vs first-gen controllers. |
| Dynamic Phase Management (DPM) | Automatic phase shedding/addition based on load; maintains >90% efficiency from 5% to full load in multi-phase section. |
| Variable Frequency Diode Emulation (VFDE) | Discontinuous conduction mode emulation at light load; eliminates reverse recovery losses in synchronous rectifiers. |
| Adaptive Voltage Positioning (AVP) | Programmable load-line slope; dynamically lowers output voltage under load to reduce I²R losses while maintaining core margin. |
| Dual Independent Oscillators | Separate FSW (multi-phase) and FSSW (single-phase) allow optimal frequency selection per domain-e.g., 500 kHz for core, 300 kHz for GFX. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar VR12 dual-controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ISL6367IRZ | Single-package 4+1-phase VR12 controller with integrated MOSFET drivers; no external PWM driver required. | Reduces BOM count but lacks independent single-phase oscillator and VFDE; less flexible for split-domain designs. | Prefer when board space is constrained and driver integration simplifies layout; avoid if separate GFX/VSA frequency tuning is needed. |
| RT8803AZSP | VR12.5-compliant dual controller with enhanced SVID 2.0 support and faster 300 ns OC response; no LTB Technology. | Supports newer Intel 12th/13th gen CPUs with dynamic SVID extensions; requires different compensation network due to non-LTB loop architecture. | Choose for forward-compatible designs targeting Alder Lake/Raptor Lake; verify thermal compensation compatibility with existing NTC networks. |
Compared with ISL6367IRZ and RT8803AZSP, the L6758ATR offers unique flexibility in independent frequency control, proven LTB transient performance, and pinstrapped VR12 register configuration-making it optimal for high-reliability server/desktop VRMs where design longevity and thermal predictability are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum supported switching frequency for the multi-phase section?
The L6758ATR's multi-phase oscillator (OSC pin) supports a base frequency of 200 kHz, adjustable up to 550 kHz using an external resistor to GND. The effective output frequency seen at the load equals FSW × N, where N is the number of active phases (2–4), enabling up to 2.2 MHz effective ripple frequency in 4-phase operation.
How does the L6758ATR implement thermal compensation without multiple NTCs?
It uses a single NTC thermistor per power section-connected to TM (multi-phase) or STM (single-phase)-with gain programmable via TCOMP or STCOMP resistor dividers. This allows independent load-line thermal derating for each domain while minimizing BOM count and PCB footprint.
Can the L6758ATR operate with only the single-phase section enabled?
Yes. The single-phase section (SPWM, SIMON, SVR_RDY) operates independently when multi-phase PWM outputs are disabled via pinstrapping or ENDRV deactivation. It retains full functionality including SVID communication, current monitoring, thermal compensation, and protection-ideal for GFX-only or VSA-only applications.
What protection mechanisms prevent false triggering during startup?
The L6758ATR incorporates pre-biased output management, soft-start ramp control (4–6 mV/μs), and delayed fault latching: OC protection activates only after IMON/SIMON voltage reaches 1.55 V with configurable delay via CIMON/CSIMON capacitors, while OV/UV thresholds are held inactive until VCC5 and VCC12 stabilize within UVLO limits.
