Delhi-3 motherboard provides the 321pin ZIF socket-7
that is backward compatible with ZIF socket-5
processors. The Pentium processor have the variable
CoreVCC voltage according to the model and vendor, so
the voltage regulator should be designed in the
motherboard. SC1152 switching regulator offers the
higher efficiency and programmability of output voltage
from 2.0V to 3.5V in 100mV increments with the VID pins.
Voltage selection
SC1152 DC-DC converter operates at a fixed frequency of
100KHz, providing an optimum compromise between size,
efficiency and cost in the intended application areas.
The output voltage can be adjusted in 100mV increment or
decrement according to the VID pin status.
Output voltage = minimum 2.0V, 2.1V, 2.2V, 3.2V, 3.3V,
3.4V, maximum 3.5V
Especially the old Pentium processors have to operate in
the single power source, so must be carefully adjusted
or set within the recommended specification.
