RT8867A
Advanced 4/3-Phase PWM Controller for CPU Core Power
General Description
The RT8867A is an advanced 4/3-phase synchronous buck
controller with 3 integrated MOSFET drivers. It integrates
an 8-bit DAC that supports Intel VR11.x CPUs power
application.
The IC adopts state-of-the-art dynamic phase control
capability by PS1/2/3 pins and achieves high efficiency
over a wide load range. It uses lossless R
DS(ON)
current
sensing to achieve phase current balance. Other features
include adjustable operating frequency, adjustable soft-
start, short circuit protection, adjustable over current
protection, over voltage protection, under voltage
protection, power good indication, VR_HOT indication and
VR_SHDN indication.
The RT8867A is available in a small footprint with WQFN-
48L 6x6 package.
