HIP6521 General Description
The HIP6521 provides the power control and protection for four output voltages in high-performance microprocessor and computer applications. The IC integrates a voltagemode PWM controller and three linear controllers, as well as monitoring and protection functions into a 16-lead SOIC package. The PWM controller is intended to regulate the microprocessor memory core voltage with a synchronousrectified buck converter. The linear controllers are intended to regulate the computer system's AGP 1.5V bus power, the 2.5V clock power, and the 1.8V power for the North/South Bridge core voltage and/or cache memory circuits. Both the switching regulator and linear voltage references provide ±2% of static regulation over line, load, and temperature ranges. All outputs are user-adjustable by means of an external resistor divider. All linear controllers employ bipolar NPNs for the pass transistors.
The HIP6521 monitors all the output voltages. The PWM controller's adjustable overcurrent function monitors the output current by using the voltage drop across the upper MOSFET's rDS(ON). The linear regulator outputs are monitored via the FB pins for undervoltage events.
