DESCRIPTION
The AIC1401 is a high efficiency, PWM step-
down, voltage-mode, switching controller. It is
suitable for IA, Notebook, LCD PC and LCD
monitor main power applications.
The built-in high voltage CMOS driver drives an
external N-channel MOSFET for replacing the
higher cost P-channel MOSFET in a standard
buck topology.
The 200KHz switching frequency allows using
smaller external components while maintaining

trigger point and short-circuit protections by
sensing the output current across the on
resistance of the external N-channel MOSFET
rather then an expensive external low value
sense resistor.
