LX1676

Product Summary

The LX1676 is a kind of highly integrated VRM power supply controller IC featuring two PWM switching regulator stages. The two constant frequency voltage-mode PWM phases of LX1676 are configured as a single biphase high current output core supply. In biphase operation, the high current (>25A) output of LX1676 is generated by a LoadSHARETM technique that balances the currents in the two phases. Power loss and noise, due to the ESR of the input capacitors, are minimized by operating the PWMs 180 out of phase. A synchronized Transient Correction Loop of LX1676 provides exceptional control of the output droop and overshoot during very high di/dt load changes, the circuit can be configured for droop only, overshoot only or both. The typical applications of LX1676 include: (1)AMD Mobile Athlon or Duron Processor Core Voltage Supply; (2)Voltage Regulator Modules.
