Advanced Triple PWM Only Mode and Dual Linear Power Controller for Portable Applications

The ISL6235 provides a highly integrated power control and protection solution for five output voltages required in highperformance notebook PC applications. The IC integrates three fixed frequency pulse-width-modulation (PWM) controllers and two linear regulators along with monitoring and protection circuitry into a single 24 lead SSOP package.
