DESCRIPTION
The AIC1571 combines a synchronous voltage
mode controller with two linear controllers as well
as the monitoring and protection functions in this
chip. The PWM controller regulates the microproc-
essor core voltage with a synchronous rectified
buck converter. One linear controller regulates
power for the GTL bus and the other linear con-
troller provides power for the clock driver circuit or
memory (1.8V)
An integrated 5 bit D/A converter that adjusts the
core PWM output voltage from 2.1V to 3.5V in 0.1V
increments and from 1.3V to 2.05V in 0.05V incre-
ments. The linear regulator uses an internal driver
device to provide 2.5V±2.5%. The linear controller
drives with an external N-channel MOSEFET to
provide 1.5V±2.5%.
This chip monitors all the output voltages. Power
Good signal is issued when the core voltage is
within ±10% of the DAC setting and the other levels
are above their under-voltage levels. Over-voltage
protection for the core output uses the lower N-
channel MOSFET to prevent output voltage above
115% of the DAC setting.
The PWM over-current function monitors the out-
put current by using the voltage drop across the
upper MOSFET’s R
DS(on)
, eliminating the need for a
current sensing resistor
.
