Figure 7-8. LM25137 Two-phase Regulator Schematic Configured for Single-output Interleaved Operation

7.3.15.3 Single-Output Multiphase Operation

A multiphase (three or four phases) regulator requires two LM25137 controllers, as illustrated in Figure 7-9.

Configure the first controller (CNTRL1) as a primary and the second controller (CNTRL2) as a secondary. To

configure the second controller, connect a 90.kΩ resistor from CNFG to AGND. This connection disables both

feedback error amplifiers of the secondary controller, placing them in a high-impedance state.

• Connect the COMP1 and COMP2 pins together on both primary and secondary controllers

• Connect SYNCOUT from the primary to PFM/SYNC of the secondary controller

• Connect the RSS pins of the both controllers

• Connect all the outputs together

• Tie FB2 (primary controller) and FB2 (secondary controller) to GND

• If PFM mode operation is required, connect FB1 of the secondary controller to PFM/SYNC of the primary

controller. Otherwise, connect FB1 to GND.

• Only PG1 of the primary is applicable. PG2 as well as the PG1/2 of the second controller can remain open

circuit or connect to GND.

The SYNCOUT of the primary controller is 90° out-of-phase and facilitates interleaved operation. RT is not used

for the oscillator when the LM25137 is in secondary mode but instead used for slope compensation. Therefore,

select the RT resistance to be the same as that of the primary. See Table 7-5.

See the Benefits of a Multiphase Buck Converter white paper and Multiphase Buck Design From Start to Finish

application report for more information.
