About this manual

The SC1153 is a programmable synchronous DC/DC controller designed for single-ended power supply applications where efficiency is critical. It features an integrated 5-bit VID DAC and operates at a fixed frequency of 200 kHz, making it suitable for powering advanced microprocessors like the Pentium III in VRM configurations.

The device includes internal level-shift circuitry, high-side drive, and preset shoot-through control to allow the use of inexpensive n-channel power switches. Key features include an accessible error amplifier, temperature-compensated voltage reference, current limit comparator, frequency shift over-current protection, and open-collector logic outputs for Power Good and Over Voltage Protection.
