1PRESS RELEASE
IR3870M SupIRBuck Integrated Voltage Regulator
DATA SHEETS
The IR3870M SupIRBuck is an integrated voltage
regulator for notebook and desktop computers,
game consoles, consumer electronics applications
such as set top boxes and general purpose
point-of-load (POL) DC-DC converters. The
IR3870M features IRs latest advances in control
IC, MOSFET and package integration technologies
and is an easy-to-use and fully integrated DC-DC
voltage regulator designed to deliver maximum
efficiency in systems that require light load as
well as full load performance.

- Advantages
- The IR3870M features a hysteretic constant
on-time modulator with adaptive dead-time control
and on-state resistance (RDS(on)) current sensing
to achieve maximum efficiency for notebooks. - The IR3870 is capable of delivering up to 10A in
environments with up to 60?C ambient temperatures
and features diode emulation for improved light
load efficiency. The device also offers a charge
pump output (CPO) option for enhancing the MOSFET
gate drive to deliver highest efficiency at
medium to full load conditions. - The IR3870 has a wide input voltage range of 3V
to 26V and can be programmed for output voltages
of 0.5V to 12V by an external resistor divider
network. - The IR3870M also features pre-boas start-up, very
precise 0.5V reference, over- and under-voltage
shut down, power good output and enable input
with voltage monitoring capability. The device
also offers constant on-time control,
programmable switching frequency, soft start, and
over-current protection. - The same feature-rich controller IC utilized in
the IR3870M is also available as a stand-alone
device, the IR3710M. This device allows
designers who use the IR3870 for lighter loads to
easily scale up to loads as high as 24A by using
the IC with a pair of external IR MOSFETs.
