Inductor windings have a characteristic distributed
resistance or DCR (Direct Current Resistance). For
simplicity, the inductor DCR is considered as a separate
lumped quantity, as shown in Figure 6. The channel current

across the inductor.
A simple R-C network across the inductor (R

Output Voltage Setting
The ISL6313 uses a digital to analog converter (DAC) to
generate a reference voltage based on the logic signals at
the VID pins. The DAC decodes the logic signals into one of
the discrete voltages shown in Tables 2, 3 or 4. In the Intel
VR11 mode of operation, each VID pin is pulled up to an
internal 1.2V voltage by a weak current source (40µA),
which decreases to 0A as the voltage at the VID pin varies
from 0 to the internal 1.2V pull-up voltage. In AMD modes of
operation the VID pins are pulled low by a week 20µA
current source. External pull-up resistors or active-high
output stages can augment the pull-up current sources, up to
a voltage of 5V.
The ISL6313 accommodates three different DAC ranges:
.
Intel VR11, AMD K8/K9 5-bit, and AMD 6-bit. The state of
the SS and VID7 pins decide which DAC version is active.
Refer to Table 1 for a description of how to select the desired
DAC version.
