GENERAL DESCRIPTION
●The ADP3168 is a highlyefficient, multiphase, synchronous buck switching regulator controller optimized for converting a 12V main supply into the core supply voltage required by high
●performance Intel processors.
●FEATURES
●Selectable 2-,3-, or 4-phase operation at up to 1 MHz per phase
●±10 mVworst-case differential sensing error over temperature
●Logic-level PWM outputs for interface to external high power drivers
●Active current balancing between all output phases
●Built-in Power Good/crowbar blanking supports
●On-the-fly VID code changes
●6-bit digitally programmable 0.8375V to 1.6 V output
●Programmable short-circuit protection with programmablelatch-off delay
●APPLICATIONS
●Desktop PC power supplies for:
● Next generationIntel® processors
● VRM modules
