Intel IMVP7 3rd Generation Core Mobile (Core i7) Power Management Reference Design
TIDA-00021
Overview
The Intel® Core i7 power management design is a reference design for Intel IMVP-7 SVID. A GUI communication program is available along with several test points on the board to evaluate the static and dynamic performance of the CPU's DC/DC controller. The design features an IMVP-7 3-phase CPU supply, a 2-phase GPU Vcore supply, a 1.05-VCC IO supply, and a DDR3L/DDR4 memory rail. To greatly improve power density and thermal performance, 5-mm x 6-mm NEXFET power block MOSFETs are used.
Features
• Design supports a 9 to 20-V input from Vbatt
• Small high-density power solution for ivy bridge
• 3-phase CPU supply supports up to 94 A
• 90% peak (80% full-load) efficiency from 12 Vin to 1.05V out - CPU supply
• Low CPU supply ripple: 25 mV
• Design has been built and tested, and a board is available
A fully assembled board has been developed for testing and performance validation only, and is not available for sale.
