IPM6210CA-T

Special Purpose Regulators Overview

The IPM6210CA-T is a precision dual PWM controller and linear regulator designed for notebook CPUs. It integrates two PWM controllers and a linear regulator in a 28-lead plastic SSOP package. The core PWM output voltage adjusts from 0.925V DC to 2.0V DC via a 5-bit DAC, conforming to Intel Mobile VID specifications. The switching frequency operates at a fixed 300kHz under nominal loads, with hysteretic mode during light loads.

Special Purpose Regulators Feature Summary

• Integrates two PWM controllers and a linear regulator for complete mobile CPU power management
• Includes a 5-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) for precise core voltage adjustment
• Features integrated feedback loop compensation to minimize external component count
• Provides out-of-phase operation between controllers to reduce input current ripple

Special Purpose Regulators Applications

• Mobile microprocessor core voltage regulation
• Notebook CPU I/O circuitry powering
• CPU clock supply generation

Special Purpose Regulators Procurement Notes

Verify the exact suffix against manufacturer documentation, as variations may exist. Confirm that the specific part number matches the required package type and thermal characteristics. Ensure compatibility with the target processor's VID specification requirements before finalizing procurement decisions.

Special Purpose Regulators Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring high integration of core and I/O power management. The integrated DAC allows dynamic voltage scaling suitable for Dual-Mode processors. Consider the fixed 300kHz frequency and hysteretic light-load operation when designing the power stage filter components.
