4. Board LC Recommended Filters for Noise Reduction in Combined Power Delivery Rails

The part numbers of ferrite bead (FB) and inductances (L) selected in this chapter are the parts which are recommended by Intel® . However, you can select different part numbers as long as the inductance/impedance at certain frequency, resistance, and other parameters of the new parts are similar to recommended FB/L part (similar inductance/impedance and similar to lower resistance within frequency range mentioned in the data sheet of recommended part).

CAUTION:
Any sense line used on board must be placed before LC filter. If the sense line is placed after the LC filter, this results in a serious oscillation to the rails and unstable voltage that is an input to the voltage regulator feedback pin function.
Note: If the power rail is using LDO, you do not need to use the LC filter.

If you are using the recommended switching voltage regulator (LTC7151S), with a proper design from ADI, and meet the simulated 5 mV ripple specification, you do not need to use the LC filter for VCCERT_FGT_GXF, VCCERT1_FHT_GXF, and VCCRT_GXR rails.

Table 18.  Recommended Inductors and Ferrite Beads for the LC Filter
Part MPN L (nH) DCR (mΩ)
SL1616A-R10MHF 100 0.32
SL1616A-R05MHF 50 0.32
BLM18SN220TZ1 — 4
BLM18KG260TN1 — 7

You can choose other inductors and ferrite beads, if they meet the specification stated above.

Choosing the LC Filter based on the DCR Value

DC drop specification must be around 0.5% of the voltage supply. If the voltage rail is 0.9 V, current is 1 A, BLM18SN220TZ1 DCR is 4 mΩ, DC drop = current x DCR = 1 A x 4 mΩ = 4 mV. The 0.5% specification of 0.9 V is 4.5 mV, which is within the specification. For a higher current value, SL1616 is the most suitable as it has lowest DCR.

VCCBAT RC Circuit Using the Device Security AES BBRAM Key

The connection shown below is recommended for the VCCBAT. Connect this pin to a non-volatile battery power source in the range of 1.0V to 1.8V. A series RC (R=10KΩ, C=1µF) circuit must be added to the VCCBAT rail.

P1V8_GR2 ( Intel Agilex® 7 F-Series and I-Series)/P1V8_GR3 ( Intel Agilex® 7 M-Series) Filters Recommendation for Device Fabric

The connections below are recommended for the P1V8_GR2_FLTR voltage rails for the Intel Agilex® 7 F-series and I-series devices or the P1V8_GR3_FLTR voltage rails for the Intel Agilex® 7 M-series devices for noise filtering. The P1V8_GR2_FLTR for the Intel Agilex® 7 F-series and I-series devices or the P1V8_GR3_FLTR for the Intel Agilex® 7 M-series devices consists of VCCADC, VCCPLL_SDM, and VCCPLL_HPS.
