HIP6200, HIP6201

Transient Voltage Regulator DeCAPitator

DATASHEET

The Intersil DeCAPitator helps to stabilize a power system

voltage during severe transients. It accomplishes this by

supplying current when the voltage is more than 1% low or

sinking current when the voltage is higher than 1.5% from

the average load voltage. The fast transient response of the

DeCAPitator can make up for the slow response time of

many switching DC/DC converters.

Although the HIP6200 serves as a simple replacement for

large output capacitors for any dynamic load, it is especially

useful in stabilizing the CPU core voltage in portable

computer applications, where size and efficiency are major

concerns. The DeCAPitator enables power supply designs

for more powerful microprocessors without increasing

converter size or decreasing converter efficiency.

The DeCAPitator acts independently of the PWM control

circuitry. This simplifies converter layout because the

DeCAPitator and the load may be located separately from

the DC/DC converter. The DeCAPitator should be located

near the load for optimum performance.
