5pcs LM2636M Programmable Buck Regulator Controller
The LM2636 is a high speed controller designed specifically for use in synchronous DC/DC buck converters for advance d microprocessors. A 5-bit DAC accepts the VID code di- rectly from the CPU and adjusts the output voltage from 1.3V to 3.5V. It provides the power good, over-voltage protection, and output enable features as required by Intel VRM specifications. Current limiting is achieved by monitoring the voltage drop across the rDS_ON of the high side MOSFET, which eliminates an expensive current sense resistor.The LM2636 employs a fixed-frequency voltage mode PWM architecture. To provide a faster response to a large and fast load transient, two ultra-fast comparators are built in to monitor the output voltage and override the primary control loop when necessary. The PWM frequency is adjustable from 50 kHz to 1 MHz through an external resistor. The wide range of PWM frequency gives the power supply designer the flexibility to make trade-offs between load transient response performance, MOSFET cost and the overall efficiency. The adaptive non-overlapping MOSFET gate drivers help avoid any potential shoot-through problem while maintaining high efficiency. BiCMOS gate drivers with rail-to-rail swing ensure that no spurious turn-on occur. When only 5V is available, a bootstrap structure can be employed to accommodate an NMOS high side switch. The precision reference trimmed to 2.5% over temperature is available externally for use by other regulators. Dynamic positioning of load voltage, which helps cut the number of output capacitors, can also be implemented easily.
