CPU 5-Bit Synchronous Buck Controller

The CS5159 is a 5-bit synchronous dual N-Channel buck controller. It is designed to provide unprecedented transient response for today's demanding high-density, high-speed logic. The regulator operates using a proprietary control method, which allows a 100ns response time to load transients. The CS5159 is designed to operate over a 4.25-16V range (VCC) using 12V to power the IC and 5V or 12Vas the main supply for conversion.

The CS5159 is specifically designed to power Pentium â II processors and other high performance core logic. It includes the following fea- tures: on board, 5-bit DAC, short circuit protection, 1.0% output tolerance, VCC monitor, and programmable Soft Start capability. The CS5159 is available in 16 pin surface mount.
