The ISL6313 two-phase PWM control IC provides a
precision voltage regulation system for advanced
microprocessors. The integration of power MOSFET drivers
into the controller IC marks a departure from the separate
PWM controller and driver configuration of previous
multi-phase product families. By reducing the number of
external parts, this integration is optimized for a cost and
space saving power management solution.
One outstanding feature of this controller IC is its
multiprocessor compatibility, allowing it to work with both Intel
and AMD microprocessors. Included are programmable VID
codes for Intel VR11 as well as AMD 5-bit and 6-bit DAC tables.
A circuit is provided for remote voltage sensing, compensating
for any potential difference between remote and local grounds.
The output voltage can also be positively or negatively offset
through the use of a single external resistor.
