DATASHEET To request the full datasheet, please visit www.intersil.com/products/isl95853 Multiphase PWM Regulator for IMVP8™ CPUs ISL95853 Features The ISL95853, fully compliant with Intel IMVP8™ specifications, provides a complete solution for microprocessor core power supply. It also provides a Voltage Regulator (VR) with two integrated and one external gate drivers. The VR can be configured as 3-, 2- or 1-phase, providing maximum flexibility. The VR uses the serial control bus (SVID) to communicate with the CPU and achieves lower cost and smaller board area. • Serial data bus • Output configurable 3-, 2- or 1-phase using two integrated gate drivers • Precision core voltage regulation - 0.5% system accuracy over temperature - Enhanced load line accuracy • Supports multiple current sensing methods - Lossless inductor DCR current sensing - Precision resistor current sensing Based on Intersil’s Robust Ripple Regulator (R3™) technology, the PWM modulator compared to traditional modulators, has faster transient settling time, variable switching frequency during load transients and has improved light load efficiency with its ability to automatically change switching frequency. • Differential remote voltage sensing • Programmable VBOOT voltage at start-up • Resistor programmable ICCMAX and voltage transition slew rate The ISL95853 has several other key features. The output supports DCR current sensing with single NTC thermistor for DCR temperature compensation or accurate resistor current sensing. The output comes with remote voltage sense, programmable VBOOT voltage, programmable ICCMAX, programmable voltage transition slew rate, adjustable switching frequency, overcurrent protection and power-good output. • Adaptive body diode conduction time reduction • System input power monitor Applications • Notebook computers • Desktop computers 0.91 VIN = 19V 0.90 0.89 VOUT (V) 0.88 0.87 0.86 0.85 0.84 0.83 VIN = 12V 0.82 VIN = 8V 0.81 0.80 0 6 12 18 24 30 36 42 48 54 60 66 IOUT (A) FIGURE 1.
