Product details
Overview
UCD90320UZWSR from Texas Instruments is a 32-rail PMBus™ power sequencer and system manager in a 12.0 mm × 12.0 mm BGA-169 package, supporting ultra-low-alpha (ULA) mold compound and single-event upset (SEU) detection for high-reliability applications. It monitors up to 24 voltage/current/temperature rails via integrated 12-bit ADCs, sequences 32 ENx outputs, performs closed-loop margining on 24 rails, and logs faults nonvolatily - used in server power management subsystems requiring coordinated rail startup/shutdown.
For engineers reviewing the UCD90320UZWSR datasheet, UCD90320UZWSR pinout, UCD90320UZWSR application, or UCD90320UZWSR equivalent, key selection considerations include its 24-channel analog monitoring capability, cascading support for up to 128 rails via SYNC_CLK, programmable Boolean logic for GPI/GPO coordination, black-box fault logging at first event, and TI Fusion Digital Power Designer software configurability.
Technical Context
The UCD90320UZWSR implements a deterministic sequencing engine with configurable dependencies, delay timers, and boolean logic for ON/OFF transitions across 32 rails. Its 24 integrated 12-bit ADC channels operate at up to 1 MSPS per channel with ±30 LSB total unadjusted error using internal reference, and support external VREFA± reference inputs for improved accuracy.
It integrates four rail profiles for Adaptive Voltage Identification (AVID), active trim functionality for DC output voltage correction, and nonvolatile flash memory for configuration storage (100k cycles, 20-year retention) plus dedicated EEPROM for fault logging (500k cycles). Cascading uses a single SYNC_CLK signal to synchronize up to four devices, enabling coordinated fault response across 128 rails.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar power sequencing and system management applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| UCD90160RGCT | 16-rail sequencer in 64-pin QFN; no SEU detection; 12-bit ADC with lower channel count (16 AMON); no black-box log | Suitable for cost-sensitive, lower-rail-count designs where cascading and advanced fault logging are unnecessary | Select UCD90160RGCT only if rail count ≤16 and ULA/SEU features are not required for target environment. |
| UCD9090ARGCR | 9-rail sequencer in 40-pin QFN; supports only 8 AMON inputs; no margining; no cascading; no nonvolatile fault log | Targeted at simple point-of-load sequencing in space-constrained embedded systems, not multi-rail servers or telecom gear | Choose UCD9090ARGCR only for basic sequencing of ≤9 rails without monitoring, margining, or fault diagnostics. |
Compared with UCD90160RGCT and UCD9090ARGCR, the UCD90320UZWSR delivers 2× more sequenced rails, integrated SEU/ULA hardening, black-box fault capture, and cascading scalability - making it the sole option for mission-critical, high-density power management where reliability and debuggability are non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the maximum number of voltage rails UCD90320UZWSR can sequence and monitor?
The UCD90320UZWSR supports sequencing and monitoring of up to 32 voltage rails. It provides 24 analog monitor inputs (AMON) for measuring voltage, current, or temperature, and 8 digital monitor inputs (DMON) for tracking rail status or fault signals. All 32 rails can be enabled/disabled via dedicated ENx pins, and sequencing dependencies, delays, and boolean logic are fully programmable in the device's nonvolatile configuration memory.
Does UCD90320UZWSR support closed-loop margining, and how many rails can it margin simultaneously?
Yes, the UCD90320UZWSR supports high-accuracy closed-loop margining on up to 24 voltage rails simultaneously using its MARx pins. Each margin output operates as a PWM-controlled DAC with feedback from the monitored rail, enabling precise ±1% voltage adjustment. The device also supports four AVID profiles and active trim functionality to dynamically correct DC output voltage drift during operation - capabilities confirmed in TI's SLUSDC1 datasheet Section 8.3.7.
How does the black-box fault logging feature work in UCD90320UZWSR?
The UCD90320UZWSR's black-box fault log captures the instantaneous state of all 32 rails and 84 GPIO pins at the exact moment the first fault occurs - including rail voltages, current readings, temperature values, EN/MAR/LGPO pin states, and GPI inputs. This snapshot is stored in dedicated nonvolatile EEPROM and persists across power cycles, enabling rapid failure root-cause analysis without requiring continuous telemetry streaming or external logic analyzers.
Can multiple UCD90320UZWSR devices be synchronized, and what interface is used?
Yes, up to four UCD90320UZWSR devices can be cascaded using the SYNC_CLK pin to achieve synchronized sequencing and coordinated fault response across up to 128 voltage rails. The SYNC_CLK signal coordinates timing across all devices, ensuring deterministic behavior during startup, shutdown, and fault conditions. Cascading requires no additional protocol overhead - it is implemented in hardware and managed entirely by the sequencer's internal state machine.
What software tools are supported for configuring UCD90320UZWSR?
The UCD90320UZWSR is configured exclusively using TI's Fusion Digital Power™ Designer software - a Windows-based GUI that provides drag-and-drop sequencing setup, real-time telemetry visualization, PMBus command scripting, and one-click firmware/configuration download. The tool eliminates manual register programming and supports export/import of configuration files, fault log analysis, and margining calibration - all verified against the official UCD90320U product folder and SLUSDC1 documentation.
