AIC1401
PWM Step-Down Switching Controller with
Shutdown
n FEATURES
n DESCRIPTION
l Operation Voltage up to 15V
l Voltage-Mode Operation
l Fast Transient Response
The AIC1401 is a high efficiency, PWM step-
down, voltage-mode, switching controller. It is
suitable for IA, Notebook, LCD PC and LCD
l Built In Accurate 1.3V Voltage Reference
monitor main power applications.
l Adjustable Over Current Protection using
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.
RDS(ON) No External Current Sense Resistor
Required
l Low Shutdown Current
l 200KHz Free-Running Oscillator
l Built in Soft Start.
The 200KHz switching frequency allows using
smaller external components while maintaining
high conversion efficiency. The 11MHz
bandwidth and 6V/us slew rate of the error

l Notebook PC
l Advanced PC Mboards
l Information PCs
l Servers and Workstations
l PC Add-On Cards
amplifier
ensures
the
higher
converter
bandwidth and the fast transient response.
The AIC1401 also features over current
protection. It provides adjustable over current
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.
