DESCRIPTION
The SC1157 is a low-cost, full featured, synchronous
voltage-mode controller designed for use in single
ended power supply applications where efficiency is of
primary concern. Synchronous operation allows for the
elimination of heat sinks in many applications. The
SC1157 is ideal for implementing DC/DC converters
needed to power advanced microprocessors such as
Pentium
®
ll (Klamath), in both single and multiple pro-
cessor configurations. Internal level-shift, high-side
drive circuitry, and preset shoot-thru control, allows for
use of inexpensive n-channel power switches.
SC1157 features include an integrated 4-bit V
ID
DAC,
temperature compensated voltage reference, triangle
wave oscillator, current limit comparator, frequency
shift over-current protection, and an internally compen-
sated error amplifier.
The SC1157 operates at a fixed 140KHz, providing an
optimum compromise between efficiency, external
component size, and cost.
