IRU1050
An example of a regulator design to meet the Intel P54C
VRE specification is given below.
Assume the specification for the processor as shown in
Table 1:
The first step is to select the voltage step allowed in the
output due to the output capacitor’s ESR:
1) Assuming the regulator’s initial accuracy plus the re-

sistor divider tolerance is
nominal), then the total step allowed for the ESR and
the ESL is 47mV.
Assuming that the ESL drop is 10mV, the remain-
ing ESR step will be 37mV. Therefore the output
capacitor ESR must be:
The Sanyo MVGX series is a good choice to achieve
both price and performance goals. The 6MV1500GX,
1500mF, 6.3V has an ESR of less than 36mV typi-
cal. Selecting 5 of these capacitors in parallel has an
ESR of
The next step is to calculate the drop due to the ca-
pacitance discharge and make sure that this drop in
voltage is less than the selected ESL drop in the
previous step.
