The very fast transient loop response easily meets the needs of the latest microprocessors. In addition, a small capacitor on the Adjust pin will further improve the transient capabilities. Internal protection circuitry provides for bust-proof operation, similar to three-terminal regulators. This circuitry, which includes overcurrent, short circuit, supply sequencing and overtemperature protection, will self protect the regulator under all fault conditions. The CS5258-1 is ideal for generating a secondary 2 - 2.5V low voltage supply on a motherboard where
