RT9238
RT9238 is VRM8.5 PWM and Triple Linear Power System Controller manufactured by Richtek.
Description
The RT9238 is a 4-in-one power controller optimized for high-performance microprocessor and puter applications. The IC integrates a PWM controller, triple linear controller as well as monitoring and protection functions into a 28-pin SOP package. The PWM controller regulates the microprocessor core voltage with a synchronous buck converter. The first linear controller supplies the puter system’s AGTL+ 1.2V bus power. The second linear controller provides power for the 1.5V AGP bus and the 3rd linear controller provides 1.8V power for the chipset core voltage and/or cache memory circuits.
The RT9238 features an Intel VRM8.5 patible, TTL 5-bit programmable DAC that adjusts the core voltage from 1.090V to 1.865V in 25m V steps. The 5bit DAC has a typical ±1% tolerance. The linear regulators provide fixed output voltages of 1.2V (VOUT2), 1.5V (VOUT3) and 1.8V (VOUT4) or...
