PRELIMINARY
Dual-Phase, Quick-PWM Controllers for IMVP-IV CPU Core Power Supplies
CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION—RESTRICTED TO INTEL IMVP LICENSEES
General Description
The MAX1987/MAX1988 are dual-phase, Quick-PWM™, step-down controllers for IMVP-IV™ CPU core supplies. Dual-phase operation reduces input ripple current requirements and output voltage ripple, while easing component selection and layout difficulties. The QuickPWM control scheme provides instantaneous response to fast load-current steps. The MAX1987/MAX1988 include active voltage positioning with adjustable gain and offset, reducing power dissipation and bulk output capacitance requirements.
