A dual-output PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) controller is an integrated circuit designed to generate two separate PWM signals simultaneously. PWM is a technique used to control the average value of a signal by varying the duty cycle of a square wave. It’s commonly used in applications like power supplies, motor control, lighting control, and more.

Description
The RT8880A is a 3 + 2 phases PWM controller, and is compliant with AMD SVI2 Voltage Regulator Specification to support both CPU core (VDD) and Northbridge portion of the CPU (VDDNB). The RT8880A features CCRCOT (Constant Current Ripple Constant On-Time) with G-NAVP (Green-Native AVP), which is Richtek’s proprietary topology. The G-NAVP makes it an easy setting controller to meet all AMDAVP (Adaptive Voltage Positioning) VDD/ VDDNB requirements. The droop is easily programmed by setting the DC gain of the error amplifier.
