LM2637
Motherboard Power Supply Solution with a 5-Bit
Programmable Switching Controller and Two Linear
Regulator Controllers
General Description
The LM2637 provides a comprehensive embedded power
supply solution for motherboards hosting high performance
MPUs such as M II
high performance MPUs. The LM2637 incorporates a 5-bit
programmable, synchronous buck switching controller and
two high-speed linear regulator controllers in a 24-pin SO
package.
Switching Section — The switching regulator controller fea-
tures a 5-bit programmable DAC, over-current and over-
voltage protection, under-voltage latch-off, a power good
signal, and output enable. The 5-bit DAC has a typical
tolerance of 1%. There are two user-selectable over-current
protection methods. One provides accurate over-current pro-
tection with the use of an external sense resistor. The other
saves cost by taking advantage of the r
side FET. The over voltage protection provides two levels of
protection. The first level keeps the high-side FET off and the
low-side FET on. The second provides a gate signal that can
be used to fire an external SCR.
Linear Section — The two linear regulator controllers fea-
ture wide control bandwidth, N-FET and NPN transistor driv-
ing capability, and an adjustable output voltage. The wide
control bandwidth makes meeting fast load transient re-
sponse requirement such as that of the GTL+ bus an easy
job. In minimum configuration, the two controllers default to
1.5V and 2.5V respectively.
