Core and Platform Power
The P4080DS uses the Zilker Labs ZL2006 switching power controller. The P4080DS uses this device as
a single-phase controller for up to 22 A of power at a nominal 1.0- to 1.10-V output. Four switchable
values are available for experimentation see
Section 6.1.2, “Configuration Switches.”
Of particular
interest is the PMBus capabilities of the ZL2006; the P4080DS uses hardware configuration pins to set the
nominal voltage to 1.10 V, but using PMBus commands, nearly any parameter of the design can be
adjusted by software, including the following:
•
Output voltage
•
Current limit
•
Slew rate
•
Power-up delay
•
Droop compensation
•
