RT8841
4/3/2/1-Phase PWM Controller for High-Density Power Supply
General Description
The RT8841 is a 4/3/2/1-phase synchronous buck
controller with 2 integrated MOSFET drivers for VR11 CPU
power application. RT8841 uses differential inductor DCR
current sense to achieve phase current balance and active
voltage positioning. Other features include adjustable
operating frequency, adjustable soft start, power good
indication, external error-amp compensation, over voltage
protection, over current protection and enable/shutdown
for various applications. RT8841 comes to a small footprint
with WQFN-40L 6x6 package
