DESCRIPTION
The AIC1570 combines a synchronous voltage mode controller with a low dropout linear regulator and a linear controller as well as the monitoring and protection functions in this chip. The PWM controller regulates the microprocessor core voltage with a synchronous rectified buck converter. The linear controller regulates power for the GTL bus and the linear regulator provides power for the clock driver circuit.
