MAX1638 Datasheet (Maxim) - High-Speed Step-Down Controller

MAX1638, High-Speed Step-Down Controller

The MAX1638 is an ultra-high-performance, step-down DC-DC controller for CPU power in high-end computer systems.

Designed for demanding applications in which output voltage precision and good transient response are critical for proper operation, it delivers over 35A from 1.3V to 3.5V with ±1% total

MAX1638 Features

* such as a digitally programmable output; adjustable transient response; and selectable 0.5%, 1%, or 2% AC load regulation. Fast recovery from load transients is ensured by a GlitchCatcher™ current-boost circuit that eliminates delays caused by the buck inductor. Output overvoltage protection is enfo
