FAN5240 Datasheet Multi-Phase PWM Controller

Manufacturer: Fairchild (now onsemi)

General Description

The FAN5240 is a single output 2-Phase synchronous buck controller to power AMD’s mobile CPU core.

The FAN5240 includes a 5-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) that adjusts the core PWM output voltage from 0.925VDC to 2.0VDC, which may be changed during operation.

Special measures are taken to allow the output to transition with controlled slew rate to comply with AMD’s Power Now technology.
