MAX15301
EVALUATION KIT AVAILABLE
InTune Automatically Compensated Digital PoL Controller with Driver and PMBus Telemetry
General Description
The MAX15301 is a full-featured, highly efficient, digital point-of-load (PoL) controller with advanced power management and telemetry features. Unlike PID-based digital power regulators, the MAX15301 uses Maxim’s patented InTune™ automatically compensated, state-space control algorithm. The InTune control law is valid for both the small- and large-signal response and accounts for dutycycle saturation effects. These capabilities result in fast loop transient response and reduce the number of output capacitors compared to competing digital controllers.
The MAX15301 includes multiple features to optimize efficiency.
