Description
This evaluation board is based on the PM6670S and represents a complete DDR2/3 power supply regulator for portable applications designed to meet JEDEC specifications. It integrates a constant on-time (COT) buck controller, a 2 Apk sink/source low drop-out regulator and a 15 mA low noise buffered reference. The COT architecture assures fast transient response supporting both polymeric and ceramic output capacitors. An embedded integrator control loop compensates the DC voltage error due to the output ripple. The 2 Apk sink/source linear regulator provides the memory termination voltage with fast load transient response.
