The CM8501C is a low cost switching regulator designed to
provide a desired output voltage or termination voltage for
various applications by converting voltage supplies ranging
from 2.0V to 4.5V. The CM8501C can be implemented to
produce regulated output voltages in two different modes. In
the default mode, when the VIN/2 pin is open, the output
voltage is 50% of the VCCQ. The CM8501C can also be used
to produce various user-defined voltages by forcing a voltage
on the VIN/2 pin. In this case, the output voltage follows the
VIN/2 pin input voltage. The regulated output voltage of
CM8501C is internally set to be 50% of the applied VCCQ.
The switching regulator is capable of sourcing or sinking up to
1.5A of current while regulating an output V TT voltage to
within 3% or less.
The CM8501C provides low profile 8-pin PSOP package to
save system space.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The CM8501C is a switching regulator that is capable of
sinking and sourcing 1.5A of current without an external heat
sink.
The CM8501C integrates power MOSFETs that are capable
of source and sink 1.5A of current while maintaining excellent
voltage regulation. The output voltage can be regulated within
3% or less by using the external feedback. Separate voltage
supply inputs have been added to fit applications with various
power supplies for the databus and power buses.
OUPUTS
The output voltage pins (VL) are tied to the databus, address,
or clock lines via an external inductor. Output voltage is
determined by the VCCQ and is determined by the VCCQ.
INPUTS
The input voltage pins (VCCQ) determine the output voltages
(VL). At CM8501C, the output voltage is always 50% of the
VCCQ input. VCCQ is suggested to connect to VCCQ of
memory module for better tracking with memory VCCQ.
OTHER SUPPLY VOLTAGES
Several inputs are provided for the supply voltages: PVDD and
VCCA
The PVDD provide the power supply to the power MOSFETs.
VCCA provide the voltage supply to the logic section and
internal error amplifiers of CM8501C.
FEEDBACK
The VFB pin is an input that can be used for closed loop
compensation. This input is derived from the voltage output.
AGSEN pin is a contact node of internal resistor divider for
remote sense.
