MAX8796GTJ+TG51

Overview

The MAX8796GTJ+TG51 is a single-phase, Quick-PWM step-down voltage regulator controller designed for Intel IMVP-6 and IMVP-6+ processor power supplies. It operates within an input voltage range of 2V to 26V and supports a switching frequency of 600 kHz. The device is housed in a 32-TQFN (5x5 mm) package with an exposed pad, suitable for surface-mount installation. It functions across a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C and includes shutdown capabilities for power management efficiency.

Feature Summary

• Implements Quick-PWM topology for high-efficiency voltage regulation
• Compatible with Intel IMVP-6 and IMVP-6+ VID interfaces
• Integrated buck converter control architecture

Applications

• Intel IMVP-6 processor core voltage regulation
• Intel IMVP-6+ processor core voltage regulation
• GMCH (Graphics Memory Controller Hub) power supply systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix TG51 against official Analog Devices documentation to confirm tape-and-reel specifications and moisture sensitivity level. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints for the 32-TQFN package. Confirm that the component meets required environmental standards such as RoHS compliance before integration into final assemblies.

Selection Notes

Select this controller when designing power stages for Intel processors requiring IMVP-6 or IMVP-6+ signaling. The fixed 600 kHz switching frequency simplifies external component selection compared to adjustable frequency alternatives. Ensure the design accommodates the thermal requirements of the TQFN package given the operating temperature range.
