High-Speed Step-Down Controllers with Synchronous Rectification for CPU Power
MAX1624/MAX1625
_______________General Description
The MAX1624/MAX1625 are ultra-high-performance, step-down DC-DC controllers for CPU power in high-end computer systems. Designed for demanding applications in which output voltage precision and good transient response are critical for proper operation, they deliver over 35A from 1.1V to 3.5V with ±1% total accuracy from a +5V ±10% supply. Excellent dynamic response corrects output transients caused by the latest dynamically clocked CPUs. These controllers achieve over 90% efficiency by using synchronous rectification. Flying-capacitor bootstrap circuitry drives inexpensive, external N-channel MOSFETs.
The switching frequency is resistor programmable from 100kHz to 1MHz. High switching frequencies allow the use of a small surface-mount inductor and decrease output filter capacitor requirements, reducing board are...
