The XRP7720 is a quad output universal customizable PMIC comprised of a quad channel Digital Pulse Width Modulated (DPWM) step-down (buck) controller and 5V LDO. A wide 4.75V to 5.5V and 5.5V to 18V input voltage dual range allows for single supply operation from standard power rails. It is pin compatible to the popular XRP7724 and provides full flexibility during the development phase while offering a cost effective option for high volume production units.

With integrated FET gate drivers, it can operate from 105kHz to 1.23MHz with independent channel-to-channel programmable operating frequency, the XRP7720 reduces overall component count and solution footprint while optimizing conversion efficiencies. A selectable Digital Pulse Frequency Mode (DPFM) and low operating current result in better than 80% efficiency down to 10mA load provides support for portable and Energy Star compliant applications. Each XRP7720 output channel is individually programmable down to a minimum 0.6V with a resolution of 2.5mV, and configurable for precise soft-start and soft-stop sequencing, including delay and ramp control.

During development, the XRP7720ILB-DEV is configured using PowerArchitectTM 5.1 (PA 5.1) through an I2C interface, allowing for short development of the power system and short time-to-market for the entire system. Once development is completed and volume production is ready to commence, Exar will assign a unique part suffix and deliver a customized XRP7720.

Built-in independent output overvoltage, over temperature, overcurrent and undervoltage lockout protections ensure safe operation under abnormal operating conditions.

The XRP7720 is offered in a RoHS compliant, “green”/halogen free 44-pin TQFN package.

Distribution Date Description File
07/17/2023 In 2023, MaxLinear will be converting all shipping labels for the parts noted from an EXAR format to MaxLinear’s label. During this transition customers may receive either label. This change affects only shipping and packing labels. This change will not affect the part number, part marking, manufacturing process or manufacturing sites. Only work in progress material will be converted. Existing inventory from MaxLinear’s warehouse, channel sales, distributor, and such, will not be converted. Hence, customers may experience receiving mixed shipments with both Exar and MaxLinear labels for some period until existing inventory of old labels is eventually cleared out. Situation is product to product with no predictable way to determine when all old labels will be exhausted. No change to product form, fit, function and reliability. ADDENDUM A: Fixed MBB label logo for DX204001 to MaxLinear logo. ADDENDUM B: Replaced ‘All other affected products outer box label’ with clearer pictures. Corrected Date Issued (from original PCN) issue date +90 days to August 30, 2023.

For best gate drive performance, it is recommended to route GL_RTN (PGND) together with its GL pin like a differential pair instead of just connecting GL_RTN to GND at the IC and subjecting it to ground noise. Routing them together cancels out any noise, inductive and electromagnetic field effects between these two traces. See ANP-32 Practical Layout Guidelines for PowerXR Designs http://www.exar.com/appnote/anp32 page 8 for more information.
