The RT8857 is a 4/3/2/1-phase synchronous buck controller with 2 integrated MOSFET drivers for Intel VR11.1/VR10.x and AMD K8/K8_M2 CPUs power application. The RT8857 uses differential inductor DCR current sense to achieve phase current balance and active voltage positioning. Other features include adjustable operating frequency, adjustable soft start, power good indication, external error-amp compensation, over voltage protection, over current protection, VRHOT sensing and IMON for various applications. The RT8857 comes to a small footprint with WQFN-48L 7x7 package.
