ISL6218
Precision Single-Phase Buck PWM Controller for Intel Mobile Voltage Positioning IMVP-IV™ and IMVP-IV+™
FN9101 Rev 6.00 August 6, 2007
The ISL6218 Single-Phase Buck PWM control IC, with integrated half bridge gate driver, provides a precision voltage regulation system for advanced Pentium-M microprocessors in notebook computers. This control IC also features both input voltage feed-forward and average current mode control for excellent dynamic response, “Loss-less” current sensing using MOSFET rDS(ON), and user selectable switching frequencies from 250kHz to 500kHz per phase.
The ISL6218 includes a 6-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) that dynamically adjusts the CORE PWM output voltage from 0.700V to 1.
