Description
Power-One’s point-of-load converters are recomm ended for use with regulated bus converters in an Intermediate
Bus Arc hitecture (IBA) . The ZY2105 is an int elligent, f ully programm able step-down p oint-of-load DC-DC module
integrating digital power conversion and power management. The ZY2105 completely eliminates the need for
external components for sequencing, tracking, protection, monitoring, and reporting. Performance parameters of
the ZY2105 are programmable by pin strapping and an external resistor and can be changed by the user at any
time during product development and service without a need for a communication bus.

In this application three POL converters are configured to deliver three independent output voltages. Output
voltages are programmed with the resistors connected between TRIM and MARGIN pins of individual converters.
POL1 is configured as a master (IM pin is grounded) and all other POL converters are synchronized to the
switching frequency of POL1.
All converters are controlled by the common ENABLE signal. Turn-on and turn-off processes of the system are
illustrated by pictures in Figure 5 and Figure 6.

8. Pin and Feature Description
8.1 OK, Fault Status
The open drain input/output with the internal pull-up
resistor. The POL convert er pulls its OK p in lo w, if a
fault occurs. Pulling lo w the OK input by an exter nal
circuitry turns off the POL converter.
8.2 SYNC, Frequency Synchronization Line
The bidir ectional input/ outp ut wit h the i nternal pull-up
resistor. If the POL converter is configured as a
master, the SYNC line propagates clock to other
POL converters. If the POL converter is configured
as a slave, the internal clock recovery circuit
synchronizes to the clock of the SYN C line.
8.3 IM, Interleave Mode
The input with the internal pull-up resistor. Pulling
the IM pin low configures a POL converter as a
master.
8.4 PG, Power Good
The open drain input/output with the internal pull-up
resistor. T he pin is pu lled lo w by the PO L convert er,
if the output volt age is outside of the window defined
by the Power Good High and Low thresholds.
Note: See the No-Bus Application Note for recommendations on
PG deglitching.
8.5 CCA, Compensation Coefficient Address
The input with internal pull-up to s elect one of 2 sets
of digital filter coefficients optimized for different
characteristics of output capacitance.
8.6 MARGIN, Output Voltage Margining
The output of the 2V internal voltage reference that
is used to program the output voltage of the POL
converter.
8.7 EN, En ab le
The input with the internal pull-up res istor. The POL
converter is turned off, when the pin is pulled low
8.8 TRIM, Output Voltage Trim
The input of the TRIM comparator for the output
voltage programming.
The output voltage can be programmed by a single
resistor connected between MARGIN and TRIM
pins.

Resistance of the t rim res istor is determined f r om the

where VOUT is the desired output voltage in Volts.
If the RTRIM is open or the TRIM pin is shorted to
PGND, the VOUT=0.5V.
9.2 Output Voltage Margining
Margining can be implemented by changing the
resistance between the REF and TRIM pins.
Figure 13. Margining Configuration
In the schematic shown in Figure 13, the nominal
output voltage is set with the trim resistor RTRIM
calculated from the equation in the paragraph 9.1.
Resistors RUP and RDOWN are added to margin the
output voltage up and down respectively and
