ISL8022EVAL1Z Dual 2A/1.7A Low Quiescent
Current 2.25MHz High Efficiency Synchronous Buck
Regulator
Description
Quick Setup Guide
The ISL8022EVAL1Z kit is intended for use by
individuals with requirements for Point-of-Load
applications sourcing from 2.8V to 5.5V. The
ISL8022EVAL1Z evaluation board is used to demonstrate
the performance of the ISL8022 low quiescent current
mode converter.
The ISL8022 is offered in a 4mmx3mm 12 Ld DFN
package with 1mm maximum height. The complete
converter occupies less than 1.8cm2 area.
2. Connect the bias supply to VIN2, the plus terminal
to VIN2 and the negative return to PGND2.
3. Verify that position is ON for SW2 and SW3.
4. Turn on the power supply.
5. Verify the output voltage is 2.5V for VOUT1 and 1.8V
for VOUT2.

1. Ensure that the circuit is correctly connected to the
supply and loads prior to applying any power.
1
The ISL8022EVAL1Z kit output is preset to 2.5V for
VOUT1 and 1.8V for VOUT2; however, output voltages
can be adjusted from 0.6V to 3.3V. The output voltage
programming resistor, R2 (or R5 in Channel 2), will
depend on the desired output voltage of the regulator.
The value for the feedback resistor is typically between
0Ω and 750kΩ as shown in Equation 1.
Let’s set R3/R6 = 100kΩ, then R2/R5 will be:
VOUT
R2 = R3 ⎛ ------------------ – 1⎞
⎝ VFB
⎠
(EQ. 1)
If the output voltage desired is 0.6V, then R3 is left
unpopulated and short R2. For faster response
performance, add 10pF in parallel to R2.
Mode Control
The ISL8022 has a SYNC pin that controls the operation
mode. The SYNC pin connects to logic high or input
voltage VIN for PFM mode; connect to logic low or
ground for forced PWM mode. Connect to an external
function generator for Synchronization. Negative edge
trigger. Do not leave this pin floating.
