The ISL6226 provides power control and protection for two user selected output voltages required in high-performance notebook PC applications. The IC integrates a fixed, selectable frequency pulse-width-modulation (PWM) controller and a 3A LDO linear regulator controller with monitoring and protection circuitry in a single 24 lead SSOP package.
