5-Bit VID Controller Integrated with Serial Interface PC Security Element

General Description Flexible, efficient

The FM3580 is an standard 5-bit VID controller with an integrated a Security controller. FM3580 extends the typical VID feature to a PC motherboard by offering a security function which deters cloning of PC motherboards. FM3580s Security block generates a new pseudo-random code each time one of its internal registers is read. The PC BIOS is programmed to poll pseudo-random code from the FM3580 at frequent intervals. If the appropriate code is not read, the system shuts down, or refuses to boot at power-up. The VID controller portion of FM3580 is identical to FM3560 and is pin compatible with FM3560.

low-voltage power for portable computing

Applications
I PC Motherboard

Value Advantage
FM3580 offers seamless power management support for Pentium class CPUs by providing nonvolatile storage space for two additional VID settings on chip. Using FM3580 it is now possible to route CPUs static VID bits directly to motherboard PWM controller for normal mode of operation or use either of the two internal VID configurations for sleep mode (or deep sleep mode). No glue logic required. In addition, FM3580 offers a 64-bit security feature which is useful to deter cloning of motherboard designs and thereby protect all value-added features of a specific motherboard design. Security block of FM3580 works in conjunction with the motherboards BIOS, a unique non-readable Vendor ID and a Seed Data. Vendor ID is custom programmed for each customer. Refer datasheet for more detail.
