Description
The FAN5193 is a synchronous multi-phase DC-DC control-
ler IC which provides a highly accurate, programmable out-
put voltage for all high-performance processors. Two
interleaved synchronous buck regulator phases with built-in
current sharing operate 180° out of phase to provide the fast
transient response needed to satisfy high current applications
while minimizing external components. The FAN5193 fea-
tures remote voltage sensing and Programmable Active
Droop
for 100nsec converter transient response with mini-
mum output capacitance. It has integrated high-current gate
drivers, with adaptive delay gate switching, eliminating the
need for external drive devices. The FAN5193 uses a 5-bit D/
A converter to program the output voltage from 1.10V to
1.85V in 25mV steps with an accuracy of 0.5%. The
FAN5193 uses a high level of integration to deliver load cur-
rents in excess of 50A from a 12V source with minimal
external circuitry. The FAN5193 also offers integrated func-
tions including Power Good, Output Enable/Soft Start,
under-voltage lockout,
over-voltage protection, and adjustable current limiting with
independent current sense on each phase. It is available in a
24 pin TSSOP package.

Notes:
1. Steady State Voltage Regulation includes Initial Voltage Setpoint, Output Ripple and Output Temperature Drift and is
measured at the converter’s VFB sense point.
2. As measured at the converter’s VFB sense point. For motherboard applications, the PCB layout should exhibit no more than
0.5m
Ω
trace resistance between the converter’s output capacitors and the CPU. Remote sensing should be used for optimal
performance.
3. Using the VFB pin for remote sensing of the converter’s output at the load, the converter will be in compliance with Intel’s
