DESCRIPTION
The AIC1570 combines a synchronous
voltage mode 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 microprocessor core
voltage with a synchronous rectified buck converter. The linear controller regulates power for the GTL bus and the linear regulator provides power for the clock driver circuit. 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 increments. The linear regulator uses an internal driver device ...
