Rev. C | Page 3 of 32
Temperature measurement is possible with the ADM1063. The
device contains one internal temperature sensor and two pairs
of differential inputs for remote thermal diodes. These are
measured by the 12-bit ADC.
The logical core of the device is a sequencing engine. This state-
machine-based construction provides up to 63 different states.
This design enables very flexible sequencing of the outputs
based on the condition of the inputs.
The device is controlled via configuration data that can be
programmed into an EEPROM. The entire configuration can
be programmed using an intuitive GUI-based software package
provided by Analog Devices, Inc.

POWERING THE ADM1063
The ADM1063 is powered from the highest voltage input on
either the positive-only supply inputs (VPx) or the high voltage
supply input (VH). This technique offers improved redundancy
because the device is not dependent on any particular voltage
rail to keep it operational. The same pins are used for supply
fault detection (see the Supply Supervision section). A VDD arbi-
trator on the device chooses which supply to use. The arbitrator
can be considered an OR’ing of five low dropout regulators (LDOs)
together. A supply comparator chooses the highest input to provide
the on-chip supply. There is minimal switching loss with this
architecture (~0.2 V), resulting in the ability to power the
ADM1063 from a supply as low as 3.0 V. Note that the supply
on the VXx pins cannot be used to power the device.
An external capacitor to GND is required to decouple the on-chip
supply from noise. This capacitor should be connected to the
VDDCAP pin, as shown in Figure 18. The capacitor has another
use during brownouts (momentary loss of power). Under these
conditions, when the input supply (VPx or VH) dips transiently
below VDD, the synchronous rectifier switch immediately turns
off so that it does not pull VDD down. The VDD capacitor can
then act as a reservoir to keep the device active until the next
highest supply takes over the powering of the device. A 10 μF
capacitor is recommended for this reservoir/decoupling function.
The VH input pin can accommodate supplies up to 14.4 V, which
allows the ADM1063 to be powered using a 12 V backplane supply.
In cases where this 12 V supply is hot swapped, it is recommended
that the ADM1063 not be connected directly to the supply. Suitable
precautions, such as the use of a hot swap controller, should be
taken to protect the device from transients that could cause
damage during hot swap events.
When two or more supplies are within 100 mV of each other,
the supply that first takes control of VDD keeps control. For
example, if VP1 is connected to a 3.3 V supply, VDD powers up
to approximately 3.1 V through VP1. If VP2 is then connected
to another 3.3 V supply, VP1 still powers the device, unless VP2
goes 100 mV higher than VP1.

INPUTS
SUPPLY SUPERVISION
The ADM1063 has 10 programmable inputs. Five of these are
dedicated supply fault detectors (SFDs). These dedicated inputs
are called VH and VPx (VP1 to VP4) by default. The other five
inputs are labeled VXx (VX1 to VX5) and have dual functionality.
They can be used either as SFDs, with functionality similar to VH
and VPx, or as CMOS-/TTL-compatible logic inputs to the device.
Therefore, the ADM1063 can have up to 10 analog inputs,
a minimum of five analog inputs and five digital inputs, or
a combination thereof. If an input is used as an analog input,
it cannot be used as a digital input. Therefore, a configuration
requiring 10 analog inputs has no available digital inputs. Table 6
shows the details of each input.
PROGRAMMING THE SUPPLY FAULT DETECTORS
The ADM1063 can have up to 10 SFDs on its 10 input channels.
These highly programmable reset generators enable the supervision
of up to 10 supply voltages. The supplies can be as low as 0.573 V
and as high as 14.4 V. The inputs can be configured to detect
an undervoltage fault (the input voltage drops below a prepro-
grammed value), an overvoltage fault (the input voltage rises
above a preprogrammed value), or an out-of-window fault (the
input voltage is outside a preprogrammed range). The thresholds
can be programmed to an 8-bit resolution in registers provided
in the ADM1063. This translates to a voltage resolution that is
dependent on the range selected.
The resolution is given by
Step Size = Threshold Range/255
Therefore, if the high range is selected on VH, the step size can
be calculated as follows:
(14.4 V − 6.0 V)/255 = 32.9 mV
Tabl e 5 lists the upper and lower limits of each available range,
the bottom of each range (VB), and the range itself (VR).
Table 5. Voltage Range Limits
Voltage Range (V) VB(V) VR(V)
0.573 to 1.375 0.573 0.802
1.25 to 3.00 1.25 1.75
2.5 to 6.0 2.5 3.5
6.0 to 14.4 6.0 8.4
The threshold value required is given by
VT= (VR× N)/255 + VB
where:
VTis the desired threshold voltage (undervoltage or overvoltage).
VRis the voltage range.
Nis the decimal value of the 8-bit code.
VBis the bottom of the range.
Reversing the equation, the code for a desired threshold is given by
N= 255 × (VT− VB)/VR
For example, if the user wants to set a 5 V overvoltage threshold
on VP1, the code to be programmed in the PS1OVTH register
(as discussed in the AN-698 Application Note at www.analog.com)
is given by
N= 255 × (5 − 2.5)/3.5
Therefore, N= 182 (1011 0110 or 0xB6).
INPUT COMPARATOR HYSTERESIS
The UV and OV comparators shown in Figure 19 are always
monitoring VPx. To avoid chatter (multiple transitions when
the input is very close to the set threshold level), these compara
tors have digitally programmable hysteresis. The hysteresis can
be programmed up to the values shown in Table 6.

The hysteresis is added after a supply voltage goes out of
tolerance. Therefore, the user can program the amount above
the undervoltage threshold to which the input must rise before
an undervoltage fault is deasserted. Similarly, the user can program
the amount below the overvoltage threshold to which an input
must fall before an overvoltage fault is deasserted.

The hysteresis value is given by

where:
VHYST is the desired hysteresis voltage.
NTHRESH is the decimal value of the 5-bit hysteresis code.
Note that NTHRESH has a maximum value of 31. The maximum
hysteresis for the ranges is listed in Table 6.
INPUT GLITCH FILTERING
The final stage of the SFDs is a glitch filter. This block provides
time-domain filtering on the output of the SFD comparators,
which allows the user to remove any spurious transitions, such
as supply bounce at turn-on. The glitch filter function is in addition
to the digitally programmable hysteresis of the SFD comparators.
The glitch filter timeout is programmable up to 100 μs.
For example, when the glitch filter timeout is 100 μs, any pulse
appearing on the input of the glitch filter block that is less than
100 μs in duration is prevented from appearing on the output of
the glitch filter block. Any input pulse that is longer than 100 μs
appears on the output of the glitch filter block. The output is
delayed with respect to the input by 100 μs. The filtering
process is shown in Figure 20.

SUPPLY SUPERVISION WITH VXx INPUTS
The VXx inputs have two functions. They can be used as either
supply fault detectors or digital logic inputs. When selected as
analog (SFD) inputs, the VXx pins have functionality that is very
similar to the VH and VPx pins. The primary difference is that
the VXx pins have only one input range: 0.573 V to 1.375 V.
Therefore, these inputs can directly supervise only the very low
supplies. However, the input impedance of the VXx pins is high,
allowing an external resistor divide network to be connected to the
pin. Thus, potentially any supply can be divided down into the
input range of the VXx pin and supervised, enabling the ADM1063
to monitor other supplies, such as +24 V, +48 V, and −5 V.
An additional supply supervision function is available when the
VXx pins are selected as digital inputs. In this case, the analog
function is available as a second detector on each of the dedi-
cated analog inputs, VPx and VH. The analog function of VX1
is mapped to VP1, VX2 is mapped to VP2, and so on; VX5 is
mapped to VH. In this case, these SFDs can be viewed as secondary
or warning SFDs.
The secondary SFDs are fixed to the same input range as the
primary SFDs. They are used to indicate warning levels rather
than failure levels. This allows faults and warnings to be gener-
ated on a single supply using only one pin. For example, if VP1
is set to output a fault when a 3.3 V supply drops to 3.0 V, VX1
can be set to output a warning at 3.1 V. Warning outputs are
available for readback from the status registers. They are also
OR’ed together and fed into the SE, allowing warnings to generate
interrupts on the PDOs. Therefore, in this example, if the
supply drops to 3.1 V, a warning is generated and remedial
action can be taken before the supply drops out of tolerance.
VXx PINS AS DIGITAL INPUTS
As discussed in the Supply Supervision with VXX Inputs section,
the VXx input pins on the ADM1063 have dual functionality.
The second function is as a digital logic input to the device.
Therefore, the ADM1063 can be configured for up to five digital
inputs. These inputs are TTL-/CMOS-compatible. Standard logic
signals can be applied to the pins: RESET from reset generators,
PWRGD signals, fault flags, manual resets, and so on. These
signals are available as inputs to the SE and, therefore, can be used
to control the status of the PDOs. The inputs can be configured
to detect either a change in level or an edge.
When configured for level detection, the output of the digital
block is a buffered version of the input. When configured for
edge detection, a pulse of programmable width is output from
the digital block once the logic transition is detected. The width
is programmable from 0 μs to 100 μs.
The digital blocks feature the same glitch filter function that is
available on the SFDs. This enables the user to ignore spurious
transitions on the inputs. For example, the filter can be used to
debounce a manual reset switch.
When configured as digital inputs, each VXx pin has a weak
(10 μA) pull-down current source available for placing the input
into a known condition, even if left floating. The current source,
if selected, weakly pulls the input to GND.

OUTPUTS
SUPPLY SEQUENCING THROUGH
CONFIGURABLE OUTPUT DRIVERS
Supply sequencing is achieved with the ADM1063 using the
programmable driver outputs (PDOs) on the device as control
signals for supplies. The output drivers can be used as logic
enables or as FET drivers.
The sequence in which the PDOs are asserted (and, therefore,
the supplies are turned on) is controlled by the sequencing engine
(SE). The SE determines what action is taken with the PDOs,
based on the condition of the ADM1063 inputs. Therefore, the
PDOs can be set up to assert when the SFDs are in tolerance, the
correct input signals are received on the VXx digital pins, no
warnings are received from any of the inputs of the device, and
at other times. The PDOs can be used for a variety of functions.
The primary function is to provide enable signals for LDOs or
dc-to-dc converters that generate supplies locally on a board.
The PDOs can also be used to provide a PWRGD signal, when all
the SFDs are in tolerance, or a RESET output if one of the SFDs
goes out of specification (this can be used as a status signal for a
DSP, FPGA, or other microcontroller).
The PDOs can be programmed to pull up to a number of different
options. The outputs can be programmed as follows:
•Open drain (allowing the user to connect an external
pull-up resistor).
•Open drain with weak pull-up to VDD.
•Open drain with strong pull-up to VDD.
•Open drain with weak pull-up to VPx.
•Open drain with strong pull-up to VPx.
•Strong pull-down to GND.
•Internally charge-pumped high drive (12 V, PDO1 to
PDO6 only).
The last option (available only on PDO1 to PDO6) allows the
user to directly drive a voltage high enough to fully enhance an
external N-FET, which is used to isolate, for example, a card-
side voltage from a backplane supply (a PDO can sustain greater
than 10.5 V into a 1 μA load). The pull-down switches can also
be used to drive status LEDs directly.
The data driving each of the PDOs can come from one of three
sources. The source can be enabled in the PDOxCFG configuration
register (see the AN-698 Application Note at www.analog.com for
details).
The data sources are as follows:
•Output from the SE.
•Directly from the SMBus. A PDO can be configured so that
the SMBus has direct control over it. This enables software
control of the PDOs. Therefore, a microcontroller can be
used to initiate a software power-up/power-down sequence.
•On-chip clock. A 100 kHz clock is generated on the device.
This clock can be made available on any of the PDOs. It
can be used, for example, to clock an external device such
as an LED.
DEFAULT OUTPUT CONFIGURATION
All of the internal registers in an unprogrammed ADM1063 device
from the factory are set to 0. Because of this, the PDOx pins are
pulled to GND by a weak (20 kΩ) on-chip pull-down resistor.
As the input supply to the ADM1063 ramps up on VPx or VH,
all PDOx pins behave as follows:
•Input supply = 0 V to 1.2 V. The PDOs are high impedance.
•Input supply = 1.2 V to 2.7 V. The PDOs are pulled to GND
by a weak (20 kΩ) on-chip pull-down resistor.
•Supply > 2.7 V. Factory programmed devices continue to
pull all PDOs to GND by a weak (20 kΩ) on-chip pull-down
resistor. Programmed devices download current EEPROM
configuration data, and the programmed setup is latched. The
PDO then goes to the state demanded by the configuration.
This provides a known condition for the PDOs during
power-up.
The internal pull-down can be overdriven with an external pull-
up of suitable value tied from the PDOx pin to the required pull-up
voltage. The 20 kΩ resistor must be accounted for in calculating
a suitable value. For example, if PDOx must be pulled up to 3.3 V,
and 5 V is available as an external supply, the pull-up resistor
value is given by
3.3 V = 5 V × 20 kΩ/(RUP + 20 kΩ)
Therefore,
RUP = (100 kΩ − 66 kΩ)/3.3 V = 10 kΩ

SEQUENCING ENGINE
OVERVIEW
The ADM1063 sequencing engine (SE) provides the user with
powerful and flexible control of sequencing. The SE implements
a state machine control of the PDO outputs, with state changes
conditional on input events. SE programs can enable complex
control of boards such as power-up and power-down sequence
control, fault event handling, interrupt generation on warnings,
and so on. A watchdog function that verifies the continued
operation of a processor clock can be integrated into the SE
program. The SE can also be controlled via the SMBus, giving
software or firmware control of the board sequencing.
The SE state machine comprises 63 state cells. Each state has the
following attributes:
•Monitors signals indicating the status of the 10 input pins,
VP1 to VP4, VH, and VX1 to VX5.
•Can be entered from any other state.
•Three exit routes move the state machine onto a next state:
sequence detection, fault monitoring, and timeout.
•Delay timers for the sequence and timeout blocks can be
programmed independently and changed with each state
change. The range of timeouts is from 0 ms to 400 ms.
•Output condition of the 10 PDO pins is defined and fixed
within a state.
•Transition from one state to the next is made in less than
20 μs, which is the time needed to download a state
definition from EEPROM to the SE.

The ADM1063 offers up to 63 state definitions. The signals

WARNINGS
The SE also monitors warnings. These warnings can be
generated when the ADC readings violate their limit register
value or when the secondary voltage monitors on VPx and VH
are triggered. The warnings are OR’ed together and are available
as a single warning input to each of the three blocks that enable
exiting a state.
SMBus JUMP (UNCONDITIONAL JUMP)
The SE can be forced to advance to the next state uncondition-
ally. This enables the user to force the SE to advance. Examples
of the use of this feature include moving to a margining state or
debugging a sequence. The SMBus jump or go-to command can
be seen as another input to sequence and timeout blocks to
provide an exit from each state.

SEQUENCING ENGINE APPLICATION EXAMPLE
The application in this section demonstrates the operation of
the SE. Figure 25 shows how the simple building block of a single
SE state can be used to build a power-up sequence for a three-
supply system. Table 8 lists the PDO outputs for each state in
the same SE implementation. In this system, a good 5 V supply
on VP1 and the VX1 pin held low are the triggers required to start
a power-up sequence. The sequence next turns on the 3.3 V supply,
then the 2.5 V supply (assuming successful turn-on of the 3.3 V
supply). When all three supplies have turned on correctly, the
PWRGD state is entered, where the SE remains until a fault occurs
on one of the three supplies, or until it is instructed to go through
a power-down sequence by VX1 going high.
Faults are dealt with throughout the power-up sequence on
a case-by-case basis. The following three sections (the Sequence
Detector section, the Monitoring Fault Detector section, and
the Timeout Detector section) describe the individual blocks
and use the sample application shown in Figure 25 to
demonstrate the actions of the state machine.
Sequence Detector
The sequence detector block is used to detect when a step in
a sequence has been completed. It looks for one of the SE inputs
to change state and is most often used as the gate for successful
progress through a power-up or power-down sequence. A timer
block that is included in this detector can insert delays into a
power-up or power-down sequence, if required. Timer delays
can be set from 10 μs to 400 ms. Figure 24 is a block diagram of
the sequence detector.

The sequence detector can also help to identify monitoring faults.
In the sample application shown in Figure 25, the FSEL1 and
FSEL2 states first identify which of the VP1,VP2, or VP3 pins
has faulted, and then they take appropriate action.

Monitoring Fault Detector
The monitoring fault detector block is used to detect a failure
on an input. The logical function implementing this is a wide
OR gate that can detect when an input deviates from its expected
condition. The clearest demonstration of the use of this block
is in the PWRGD state, where the monitor block indicates that
a failure on one or more of the VP1, VP2, or VP3 inputs has
occurred.
No programmable delay is available in this block because the
triggering of a fault condition is likely to be caused by a supply
falling out of tolerance. In this situation, the device needs to
react as quickly as possible. Some latency occurs when moving
out of this state because it takes a finite amount of time (~20 μs)
for the state configuration to download from EEPROM into the
SE. Figure 26 is a block diagram of the monitoring fault detector.

Timeout Detector
The timeout detector allows the user to trap a failure to ensure
proper progress through a power-up or power-down sequence.
In the sample application shown in Figure 25, the timeout next-
state transition is from the EN3V3 and EN2V5 states. For the
EN3V3 state, the signal 3V3ON is asserted on the PDO1 output
pin upon entry to this state to turn on a 3.3 V supply. This supply
rail is connected to the VP2 pin, and the sequence detector looks
for the VP2 pin to go above its undervoltage threshold, which is
set in the supply fault detector (SFD) attached to that pin.
The power-up sequence progresses when this change is detected.
If, however, the supply fails (perhaps due to a short circuit over-
loading this supply), the timeout block traps the problem. In this
example, if the 3.3 V supply fails within 10 ms, the SE moves to
the DIS3V3 state and turns off this supply by bringing PDO1
low. It also indicates that a fault has occurred by taking PDO3
high. Timeout delays of 100 μs to 400 ms can be programmed.
FAULT AND STATUS REPORTING
The ADM1063 has a fault latch for recording faults. Two registers,
FSTAT1 and FSTAT2, are set aside for this purpose. A single bit
is assigned to each input of the device, and a fault on that input sets
the relevant bit. The contents of the fault register can be read
out over the SMBus to determine which input(s) faulted. The
fault register can be enabled/disabled in each state. To latch data
from one state, ensure that the fault latch is disabled in the
following state. This ensures that only real faults are captured
and not, for example, undervoltage conditions that may be
present during a power-up or power-down sequence.
The ADM1063 also has a number of status registers. These
include more detailed information, such as whether an under-
voltage or overvoltage fault is present on a particular input. The
status registers also include information on ADC limit faults.
Note that the data in the status registers is not latched in any
way and, therefore, is subject to change at any time.
See the AN-698 Application Note at www.analog.com for full
details about the ADM1063 registers.

VOLTAGE READBACK
The ADM1063 has an on-board, 12-bit, accurate ADC for
voltage readback over the SMBus. The ADC has a 13-channel
analog mux on the front end. The 13 channels consist of the
10 SFD inputs (VH, VPx, and VXx), plus three channels for
temperature readback (see the Temperature Measurement System
section). Any or all of these inputs can be selected to be read,
in turn, by the ADC. The circuit controlling this operation is
called the round-robin circuit. This circuit can be selected to
run through its loop of conversions once or continuously.
Averaging is also provided for each channel. In this case, the
round-robin circuit runs through its loop of conversions 16 times
before returning a result for each channel. At the end of this
cycle, the results are written to the output registers.
The ADC samples single-sided inputs with respect to the AGND
pin. A 0 V input gives out Code 0, and an input equal to the
voltage on REFIN gives out full code (4095 decimal).
The inputs to the ADC come directly from the VXx pins and
from the back of the input attenuators on the VPx and VH pins,
as shown in Figure 27 and Figure 28.

The voltage at the input pin can be derived from the
following equation:
V= 4095
CodeADC × Attenuation Factor × VREFIN
where VREFIN = 2.048 V when the internal reference is used (that is,
the REFIN pin is connected to the REFOUT pin).
The ADC input voltage ranges for the SFD input ranges are listed
in Tabl e 9.

1The upper limit is the absolute maximum allowed voltage on the VPx and
VH pins.
The typical way to supply the reference to the ADC on the
REFIN pin is to connect the REFOUT pin to the REFIN pin.
REFOUT provides a 2.048 V reference. As such, the supervising
range covers less than half the normal ADC range. It is possible,
however, to provide the ADC with a more accurate external
reference for improved readback accuracy.
Supplies can also be connected to the input pins purely for ADC
readback, even though these pins may go above the expected
supervisory range limits (but not above the absolute maximum
ratings on these pins). For example, a 1.5 V supply connected to
the VX1 pin can be correctly read out as an ADC code of approxi-
mately 3/4 full scale, but it always sits above any supervisory limits
that can be set on that pin. The maximum setting for the REFIN
pin is 2.048 V.
SUPPLY SUPERVISION WITH THE ADC
In addition to the readback capability, another level of supervi-
sion is provided by the on-chip, 12-bit ADC. The ADM1063 has
limit registers with which the user can program a maximum or
minimum allowable threshold. Exceeding the threshold generates
a warning that can either be read back from the status registers
or input into the SE to determine what sequencing action the
ADM1063 should take. Only one register is provided for each input
channel. Therefore, either an undervoltage threshold or overvoltage
threshold (but not both) can be set for a given channel. The round-
robin circuit can be enabled via an SMBus write, or it can be
programmed to turn on in any state in the SE program. For
example, it can be set to start after a power-up sequence is
complete, and all supplies are known to be within expected
tolerance limits.
Note that a latency is built into this supervision, dictated by
the conversion time of the ADC. With all 12 channels selected,
the total time for the round-robin operation (averaging off) is
approximately 6 ms (500 μs per channel selected). Supervision
using the ADC, therefore, does not provide the same real-time
response as the SFDs.
