Product Summary

The LM2636M is a high speed controller designed specifically for use in synchronous DC/DC buck converters for advanced microprocessors. A 5-bit DAC accepts the VID code directly from the CPU and adjusts the output voltage from 1.3V to 3.5V. The LM2636M 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 LM2636M employs a fixed-frequency voltage mode PWM architecture.
