High efficiency I/O power generation for mobile Pentium III microprocessors
Wei Chen
Abstract
The use of the LTC1778, a synchronous step-down switching regulator controller, for high efficiency input/output power generation for mobile Pentium III microprocessors is discussed.

The demand for higher performance notebook computers has fueled the development of faster and more power-hogging microprocessors. These microprocessors also require a faster input/output (I/O) bus and a faster clock. From a power management perspective, this means that core, I/O and clock power supplies should be able to handle more power. This requires that core and I/O DC/DC ...
