PRELIMINARY DATASHEET
DESCRIPTIONDESCRIPTION
The US3021B controller IC is specifically designed to
meet Intel specification for next generation microprocessor applications requiring multiple on board regulators . The US3021B provides a single chip control-
ler IC for the Vcore , 3LDO controllers, one with the
automatic select pin that connects to the TYPE DETECT pin of the AGP slot for the AGP Vddq supply,
one for GTL+ and the other for the 1.8V chip set
regulator as required for the next generation PC
applications. The US3021B typically uses Bipolar
transistors for Vout3(1.5V) and Vout4(1.8V) however
if Vaux pin is connected to 12V, then MOSFETs can
also be used as external pass elements. No external resistor divider is necessary for any of the regulators. The switching regulator feature a patented topol-
ogy that in combination with a few external components
as shown in the typical application circuit ,will provide
well in excess of 20A of output current for an on- board
DC/DC converter while automatically providing the right
output voltage via the 5 bit internal DAC .The US3021B
also features, loss less current sensing for both
switcher by using the Rds-on of the high side Power
MOSFET as the sensing resistor, an output under
voltage shutdown that detects short circuit condition for the linear outputs and latches the system
off, and a Power Good window comparator that switches
its open collector output low when any one of the outputs is outside of a pre programmed window.

ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONSELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Unless otherwise specified ,these specifications apply over ,V12 = 12V, V5 = 5V and Ta=0 to 70°C. Typical values
refer to Ta =25°C. Low duty cycle pulse testing are used which keeps junction and case temperatures equal to the
ambient temperature.
