RT9221
Programmable Synchronous PWM Buck Converter with
1.5V/2.5V Dual Low Dropout Linear Regulator Controller
General Description
The RT9221 integrates a PWM controller and two
low-dropout linear regulators into a single chip. The
PWM controller provides the CPU core voltage
controlled by a 5-bit DAC and the linear section
regulates power for GTL bus, clock driver or other
circuits on motherboards. The PWM controller
provides an adjustable Intel-compatible 1.3V~3.5V
output voltage. The synchronous N-MOSFET driver
with 200 KHz switching frequency optimizes the
efficiency, device size, and cost built-in over鈥搗oltage
and current-limiting protection prevent the CPU from
damage. Power-good signal is sent when the core
voltage is within
卤10%
of the setting point.
The linear section is a low dropout regulator which
drives low cost NPN transistors to supply the 1.5V
and 2.5V regulated output power.
