DESCRIPTION:
The MP54C/MP55C series of power modules are low
noise (no EMI), economical 25W (nominal) linear
DC:DC converters with an integral connector conforming to Intel Corporation’s Voltage Regulator Module specification for the Pentium® Processor.
FEATURES:
• Integral VRM header connector
• Input voltage 5V ± 5%
• Fixed output voltage 3.525V for all Pentium®
•
Processor variants (VRE or standard voltage)
Steady state output current 5.8A/7.5A peak
(MP54C-E) or 5A (MP54C-5E)
Low dropout voltage
Fast transient response
Low noise, no EMI
Fully qualified by Intel Corporation for Intel
Pentium® Processor P54C & P54CS 90 - 200MHz
module
Outstanding features include internal current limiting
and thermal shutdown, providing full device protection
against load faults and thermal overstress. The
MP54C series is designed to supply power for the
Pentium Processor P54C & P54CS and associated
chip sets. With a tightly controlled output voltage,
nominally 3.525V, the MP54C meets all requirements
for powering VRE specification processors.

The MP54C-5E is a reduced cost version offering a
maximum current of 5A. For P55C processors,
please see Semtech’s datasheet, MP55C.
APPLICATIONS:
• Intel Pentium® Power Supply

UPVRM#
Input
When driven high, this input will disable the Voltage Regulator Module
output and the output of the module will float.
Power Good is driven low when the VRM output is not within valid
levels.
Sense is provided for the regulator to correct for voltage drops across
the connector and motherboard powerplane.
This signal indicates to future upgrade processors that the proper
module is installed. This signal must be tied HIGH for this module.
This pin may be used as a +12V supply input, otherwise it should be
left as a no connect (NC)
