ISL6524
VRM8.5 PWM and Triple Linear Power System Controller
The ISL6524 provides the power control and protection for
four output voltages in high-performance microprocessor
and computer applications. The IC integrates one PWM
controller and three linear controllers, as well as the
monitoring and protection functions into a 28-pin SOIC
package. The PWM controller regulates the microprocessor
core voltage with a synchronous-rectified buck converter.
One linear controller supplies the computer system’s AGTL+
1.2V bus power. The other two linear controllers regulate
power for the 1.5V AGP bus and the 1.8V power for the chip
set core voltage and/or cache memory circuits.
The ISL6524 includes an Intel VRM8.5 compatible, TTL
5-input digital-to-analog converter (DAC) that adjusts the
microprocessor core-targeted PWM output voltage from
1.050V to 1.825V in 25mV steps. The precision reference and
voltage-mode control provide ±1% static regulation. The linear
regulators use external N-channel MOSFETs or bipolar NPN
pass transistors to provide fixed output voltages of 1.2V ±3%
(V
OUT2
), 1.5V ±3% (V
OUT3
) and 1.8V ±3% (V
OUT4
).
The ISL6524 monitors all the output voltages. A delayed-
rising VTT (V
OUT2
output) Power Good signal is issued
before the core PWM starts to ramp up. Another system
Power Good signal is issued when the core is within ±10% of
the DAC setting and all other outputs are above their under-
voltage levels. Additional built-in overvoltage protection for
the core output uses the lower MOSFET to prevent output
voltages above 115% of the DAC setting. The PWM
controllers’ overcurrent function monitors the output current
by using the voltage drop across the upper MOSFET’s
r
DS(ON)
, eliminating the need for a current sensing resistor.

NOTE: Intersil Pb-free products employ special Pb-free material
sets; molding compounds/die attach materials and 100% matte tin
plate termination finish, which are RoHS compliant and compatible
with both SnPb and Pb-free soldering operations. Intersil Pb-free
products are MSL classified at Pb-free peak reflow temperatures that
meet or exceed the Pb-free requirements of IPC/JEDEC J STD-020.
