controller optimized to meet the Intel VR11 Specifications.
The demo board for the NCP5389 is available by request.
It is configured as a three phase solution with decoupling
designed to provide a 1.0 mW load line under a 50 A step
load. A schematic is available upon request from ON
Semiconductor.

tool should be set to a valid VID code of 0.5 V or above
in-order for the controller to start. Consult the VTT help
manual for more detailed instructions.

Step Load Testing
Select the dynamic loading option in the VTT test tool
software. Set the desired step load size, frequency, duty,
and slew rate. See Figures 8 and 9.
The VTT tool is used to generate the high di/dt step load.
16. Start the second ATX supply by turning it on and
17. Set the VR_ENABLE DIP switch up to start the
