Introduction
The ISL6269EVAL2Z evaluation board demonstrates the
performance of the ISL6269 single-phase synchronous-buck
PWM controller featuring Intersil's Robust Ripple Regulator
(R3) technology. An on-board dynamic-load generator is
included for evaluating the transient-load response, which
applies a 2.5ms pulse of 120mΩ across VOUT and GND
every 30ms. Contents of this document include:

The design criteria listed in Table 1 was, to a large extent,
influenced by customer input. The PWM switching frequency
can be programmed to any frequency between 200kHz and
600kHz. If only one PWM frequency setting is desired, this
can be accomplished by simply not populating R17. The
output voltage can be programmed to any voltage between
0.6V and 3.3V. If only one output voltage setting is desired,
this can be accomplished by simply not populating R16.
(EQ. 2)
The output voltage is programmed for 1.10V using resistors
R19 (RTOP) and R20 (RBOTTOM) when switch S3 is in the
LOWER position. Setting switch S3 in the UPPER position
will program the output voltage for 1.20V using resistor R19
(RTOP) and the parallel resistance of R20 and R16
(RBOTTOM). The loop compensation is usually responsible
for selecting RTOP (R19) which in this case is 3.01kΩ. The
voltage setpoint programming resistance RBOTTOM is
calculated using Equation 3 where:
( V REF ⋅ R TOP )
R BOTTOM = -----------------------------------------( V OUT – V REF )
Design Criteria
(EQ. 1)
- rDS(ON) of Q8||Q10 low-side MOSFETs is 2mΩ
- IOC is 26µA
- IFL is 20A continuous
- IPP is 5.0APP (25% of IFL 20A)
- OCSP is 1.8 (180% of IFL)
The PWM switching frequency fSW is programmed for
300kHz by resistance RFSET (R12) when switch S2 is in the
LOWER position. Setting switch S2 in the UPPER position
will program fSW for approximately 600kHz with the parallel
resistance of R12 and R17. Using Equation 2 finds the value
for RFSET (R12) = 57.6kΩ. The “K” constant in Equation 2 is
ideally 66.8 x 10-12 however, this value can be affected by
the ripple voltage on the COMP pin. The ripple voltage on
the COMP pin increases with the bandwidth of the feedback
loop compensation, effectively reducing the value of “K”. The
ISL6269EVAL2Z evalualtion board is aggressively
compensated for approximately 100kHz bandwidth, making
the value of “K” effectively 58 x 10-12.

(EQ. 3)
- VREF = 600mV
- RTOP = 3.01kΩ
- VOUT = 1.10V or 1.20V
Begin by finding the value of R20 for VOUT = 1.10V from
Equation 2: R20 = 3.57kΩ. Find the value of parallel
resistance R20 and R16 for VOUT = 1.20V from Equation 3:
R20||R16 = 3.01kΩ, therefore R16 = 19.1kΩ.
The OCP setpoint resistor RSEN (R13) is selected to protect
the output load, without nuisance shutdowns due to
component tolerances and temperature effects. Using
Equation 1 finds RSEN (R13) = 2.96kΩ. Using the next highest
standard 1% value yields. RSEN (R13) = 3.01kΩ where:
