DESCRIPTIONDESCRIPTION
The US2076 is a dual function IC combining a
switching controller and a 7.5A adjustable low
dropout regulator all in a compact 7 pin TO220 and
TO263 surface mount packages providing a total solution for dual supply processor applications such as
an Intel P55C , AMD K6, as well as Cyrix 6X86L
and the M2processors. Typically in these applications
a dual supply regulator converts 5V to 3.3V for I/O supply and a jumper programmable supply of 1.25V to 3.5V
for CORE supply.The linear regulator portion in the
US2076 is an adjustable one that can be programmed
to 3.30V output and has a minimum of 7.5A current capability designed to provide ample current for most applications. The US2076 uses an internal regulator generated from the 12V supply to power the switching controller as well as the 12V supply to drive the power
MOSFET, allowing a low cost N channel MOSFET
switch to be used. The IC also includes an error comparator for fast transient response, a precise voltage reference for setting the output voltage as well as a direct
drive of the MOSFET for the minimum part count.
