General Description
The FAN5109 is a high-frequency driver, specifically designed to drive N-Channel power MOSFETs in a synchronous-rectified buck converter. This driver, combined with a Fairchild Multi-Phase PWM controller and power MOSFETs, form a complete core voltage regulator solution for advanced microprocessors.
