Applications
The PM6697HTR is used in server motherboard voltage regulator modules (VRMs) and processor power delivery networks that must comply with the VR13 specification for Intel server-class CPUs. Its single-phase PWM control is suited for lower-current CPU rails where multi-phase complexity is not justified, reducing BOM cost and board space. Computing platform designers at system integrators and ODMs rely on it for efficient, specification-compliant core voltage delivery in rack-mount server applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
What input voltage range does PM6697HTR support, and which power rails in a server board does this cover?
The PM6697HTR operates from an input voltage range of 4.5 V to 13.2 V, with a nominal input of 5 V. This covers both the 5 V and 12 V server board power rails commonly used in ATX and SSI server platforms, allowing the VR13 controller to regulate CPU core voltage from either supply without additional pre-regulation.
How does PM6697HTR's VR13 compliance affect its compatibility with Intel server CPU designs?
VR13 is Intel's voltage regulator specification for server-class processors, defining load-line slope, transient response, and control interface requirements. PM6697HTR's compliance ensures it meets the VID signaling and dynamic voltage scaling required by VR13-capable Intel Xeon CPUs, simplifying the platform validation process for server ODMs targeting data center deployments.
What are the lead time and procurement risks associated with PM6697HTR for server board production planning?
The factory lead time for PM6697HTR is approximately 41 weeks, which is exceptionally long for a controller IC. Server board production planners must place orders well over 9 months in advance and maintain safety stock buffers. The long lead time combined with a YTEOL of 6.5 years signals that buyers should also evaluate second-source alternatives to avoid single-supplier exposure.
How does the single-phase architecture of PM6697HTR compare to multi-phase controllers for high-current CPU loads?
PM6697HTR's single-phase design suits CPU or auxiliary rails with moderate current demands where the added complexity of multi-phase interleaving is not justified. Multi-phase controllers reduce output ripple and spread thermal load across more switches, but for loads under approximately 20 A, a single-phase VR13 controller like PM6697HTR offers lower external component count and a smaller PCB footprint in the 20-pin QFN package.
