GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AIC1340 combines a synchronous voltage mode
PWM controller with a low dropout linear regulator
and a linear controller as well as the monitoring and
protection functions in this chip. The PWM controller regulates the output voltage with a synchronous
rectified step-down converter. The built-in N-Channel
MOSFET drivers also help to simplify the design of
step-down converter. It is able to power CPUs,
GPUs, memories, and chipset s. The PWM controller features over current protection using R
DS(on)
. It
improves efficiency and saves cost, as there is no
expensive current sense resistor required.
The built-in adjustable linear controller drives an external MOSFET to form a linear regulator that regulates power for system I/O. The built-in adjustable
low dropout linear regulator can supply current up to
500mA for supplying another system I/O. Output
voltage of both linear regulators can also be adjus ted by means of the external resistor divider. Both
linear regulators feature current limit. With higher
load current required from the low dropout linear
regulator, the AIC1341 is recommended.
The Shutdown function is also provided for disable
the combo controller.
