Description
TriPhase Current Mode Controller with Power Good
Manufacturer
SEMTECH [Semtech Corporation]
Datasheet
The SC2434, a tri-phase, current mode controller is
designed to work with Semtech smart synchronous
drivers, such as the SC1205, SC1206, and SC1207 to
provide the DC/DC converter solution for the most
demanding Microprocessor applications. Input current
sensing is used to guarantee precision phase to phase
current matching using a single sense resistor on the
input power line. This topology reduces the power loss
and complexity associated with output current sense
methods. Multi phase operation allows significant
reduction in input/output ripple while enhancing
transient response. Two or three phase operation is
selectable. The DAC step size and range are program-
mable with external components thus allowing compliance
with new and emerging VID ranges. A novel approach
implements active droop to minimize output capacitors
during load transients.
