ISL70002SEH Dual Phase Current Share Evaluation
Board User Guide
ISL70002SEHEVAL2Z
Specifications
The ISL70002SEHEVAL2Z evaluation board is designed to
evaluate the performance of the ISL70002SEH in a dual
regulator current sharing configuration. The ISL70002SEH is a
TID and SEE hardened 12A synchronous buck regulator IC with
integrated MOSFETs intended for space applications. For more
detailed information, please refer to the datasheet
ISL70002SEH.
This board has been configured for the following operating
conditions:
The ISL70002SEHEVAL2Z evaluation board accepts an input
voltage of 3V to 5.5V and provides a regulated default output
voltage of 1.0V configured to current share to provide 19A
total output current, assuming ±27% worst-case current
share accuracy. The output can be quickly adjusted to an
alternate voltage using the onboard potentiometer. A PGOOD
(power-good) signal goes high and lights a green LED to indicate
that the output voltage is within a ±11% typical regulation
window. A toggle switch (SW1) is provided to conveniently
enable or disable the regulators.
The ISL70002SEHEVAL2Z evaluation board can be set to run
from the nominal 500kHz or 1MHz internal oscillator of the
master ISL70002SEH with the two devices synchronized 180°
out-of-phase to reduce input RMS ripple current.

Recommended Test Equipment
• 0 to 6V power supply with at least 35A current capability
• Electronic load capable of sinking current up to 21A
• Digital multimeters (DMMs)
• A 500MHz dual or quad trace oscilloscope
• Frequency response analyzer (0.01Hz to 10MHz)
Quick Start
In this master/slave configuration the two ISL70002SEH ICs
operate ~180° out-of-phase to minimize the input ripple current,
effectively operating as a single IC at twice the switching
frequency. The master phase uses the falling edge of the SYNC
clock to initiate the master switching cycle with the nonoverlap
period before the rising edge of LX, while the slave phase
internally inverts the SYNC input and uses the falling edge of the
inverted copy to start its switching cycle. This is independent of
whether the master phase is configured for an external clock
(master M/S = DGND) or its internal clock (master M/S = DVDD).
The master error amplifier and compensation controls the two
phase regulator while the slave error amplifier is disabled. The
“ISL70002SEHEVAL2Z Schematic” on page 9 shows the
complete configuration connection used on this evaluation
platform for the Master and Slave IC.

the rectangular waveform on the LX pins of the master and
slave ICs respectively.
7. Connect oscilloscope to probe jack VOUT to monitor the
output voltage. Ripple voltage is customarily measured with
20MHz bandwidth limiting and AC coupling.

FIGURE 3. DUAL ISL70002SEH CURRENT SHARE BLOCK DIAGRAM
Figure 4 shows the turn on of the ISL70002SEHEVAL2Z into a
0.1Ω load, the load sharing for the ~10A total load is ~44% for
the master device and ~56% for the slave device. Figure 5 shows
a transient load from 0A to 14A with a current sharing ratio of
45% to 55% for the master to slave respectively at max current.
Both of these current sharing ratios are within the share
guidance provided as worst case.

Dual Phase Current Share
Operation
Two ISL70002SEH devices are capable of operating as a single
two-phase regulator with nearly twice the load current capacity.
In this mode, a redundant current sharing bus balances the load
current between the two devices and communicates any fault
conditions. One ISL70002SEH is designated the master and the
other the slave. The master ISHSL pin is connected to DGND and
the slave ISHSL pin is connected to DVDD. The ISHEN pins on
both master and slave are connected to DVDD. The SYNC, ISHA,
ISHB, ISHC, ISHREFA, ISHREFB, ISHREFC, ISHCOM and FB pins
are connected from the Master to the Slave and the REF pins are
tied with a 10Ω resistor. Configured this way, the two-phase
regulator nearly doubles the load current capacity, limited only by
the current share match tolerance. See Figure 3 for an

Changing the Turn-On Voltage
The POR circuitry prevents the controller from attempting to
soft-start before sufficient bias is present at the PVINx pins and is
selectable on this evaluation board. The POR threshold is
controlled by the PORSEL pin connection with J27. For a nominal
5V supply voltage, PORSEL should be connected to DVDD. For a
nominal 3.3V supply voltage, PORSEL should be connected to
DGND. For nominal supply voltages between 5V and 3.3V,
PORSEL should be connected to DGND.

Loop Gain Measurements
Loop measurement is needed to analyze the robustness of the
power converter design. The evaluation board comes equipped
with a resistor (R22) between the output voltage and the
compensation network around the error amplifier, essentially
breaking the loop and use test points TP9 and TP8 to inject the
AC signal differentially across R22 (shorted by J32) and measure
the loop response with the Frequency Response Analyzer. See
Figures 26 and 27 for phase/gain plots. For more detailed
information on loop measurement techniques refer to references
[1] and [2].
Switching Frequency Selection
The ISL70002SEH can operate at a 500kHz or a 1MHz nominal
switching frequency. Jumper connector J29 labeled ‘FSEL’ is used
to set the switching frequency for both the master and slave
devices. Use Table 1 to configure the evaluation board to the
desired switching frequency.

Evaluating Other Output Voltages
With a jumper installed on jumper J30, the ISL70002SEHEVAL2Z
output voltage is preset to 1.0V. For quick evaluation of other output
voltages, the ISL70002SEHEVAL2Z provides an on board
potentiometer (R23) on the feedback network, as shown in Figure 4.
To modify the output voltage through R23, flip SW1 to the OFF
position. Open J30 and short J31. Enable the ISL70002SEH and
measure the output voltage with a DMM. Use a small flat head
screw driver to turn the potentiometer until the desired output
voltage is achieved.

The SC0 (J18) and SC1 (J31) pins select four levels of current
mode slope compensation. In current mode buck regulators,
when the duty cycle approaches and exceeds 50%, the regulator
will operate in subharmonic oscillation without slope
compensation. Slope compensation is widely considered
unnecessary if the duty cycle is held below 40% and provides
better phase margin. Transient duty cycles must be taken into
consideration when selecting the level of slope compensation.
Table 2 describes the amount of effective current that is added to
the output power stage signal that is used in the PWM
modulator.

ISL70002SEHEVAL2Z Efficiency
Testing
This dual current share application board is design with
ISL70002SEH devices on both the top and bottom of the PCB.
Because of this, the typical lab test methods of ambient air
temperature control were unsuitable. In this instance we used
calibrated temperature baths filled with electrically inert fluids to
provide the ambient temperature the boards and ICs were
exposed to. The immersion in a constantly swirling liquid
controlled to within 0.1°C, makes it reasonable to assume that
the ISL70002SEH case temperature is equal to the liquid’s
controlled temperature. The power efficiency curves (Figures 6
through 25) were all produced using this best case thermal test
condition method. This testing presents the efficiency curves
with a known case temperature making the Si junction
temperature calculation simpler and more robust. Testing with
typical ambient air temperature control methods will result in
lower efficiency.

Schematic and BOM
A schematic and BOM of the ISL70002SEHEVAL2Z evaluation
board are shown on page 9 and page 10, respectively. The
schematic indicates the test points, which allow many nodes of
the evaluation circuit to be monitored directly. The BOM shows
components that are representative of the types needed for a
design, but these components are not space qualified. Equivalent
space qualified components would be required for flight
applications.
Layout Guidelines
Layout is very important in high frequency switching converter
design, particularly in a dual PWM IC configuration such as the
ISL70002EVAL2Z. The resulting current transitions from one
power device to another and causes voltage spikes across the
interconnecting impedances and parasitic circuit elements.
These voltage spikes can degrade efficiency, radiate noise into
the circuit, and lead to device overvoltage stress. Careful
component layout and printed circuit board design minimizes
these voltage spikes. The following generic guidelines can be
used:
1. Use an eight layer PCB with 2 ounce (70µm) copper or
equivalent in thinner layers.
2. 2 layers should be dedicated for ground plane.
3. Top and bottom layers are used primarily for the ICs and
signals, but can also be used to increase the VIN, VOUT and
ground planes as required.
4. Connect all AGND, DGND and PGNDx pins directly to the
ground plane. Connect all PVINx pins directly to the VIN
portion of the power plane.
5. Locate ceramic bypass capacitors as close as possible to the
PWM ICs. Prioritize the placement of the bypass capacitors on
the pins of ICs in the order shown: PVINx, REF, AVDD, DVDD,
SS, EN, PGOOD.
6. Locate the output voltage resistive divider as close as
possible to the FB pin of the IC. The top leg of the divider
should connect directly to the load and the bottom leg of the
resistive divider should connect directly to AGND. The junction
of the resistive divider should connect directly to the FB pin.
7. Use a small island of copper to connect the LXx pins of the
regulator to the inductor, to minimize the routing capacitance
that degrades efficiency. Separate the island from ground
and power planes as much as possible.
8. Keep all signal traces as short as possible.
9. A small series snubber (R25 and C20) connected from the
LXx pins to the PGNDx pins may be used to dampen ringing
on the LXx pins if desired.
Thermal Management for Ceramic Package
For optimum thermal performance, generally place a pattern of
vias on the layer of the PCB directly underneath the IC and
connect the vias to the plane which serves as a heatsink. In this
specific case, since the evaluation platform was size optimized
even with 2 ICs, the ICs are mounted on each side of the PCB and
offset from each other to provide some PCB Cu area for each IC
to dissipate heat into. In general, to ensure good thermal contact,
thermal interface material such as a Sil-Pad or thermally
Submit Document Feedback

conductive epoxy should be used to fill the gap between the vias
and the bottom of the IC of the ceramic package. Additionally,
the ISL70002SEH comes in both a thermally enhanced package
with a heat spreading bottom which can be directly soldered to
the PCB Cu pattern and a non thermally enhanced package
which is the option installed on the ISL70002EVAL2Z.
Lead Strain Relief
The package leads protrude from the bottom of the package and
the leads need forming to provide strain relief. On the ceramic
bottom package R64.A, the Sil-pad or epoxy maybe be used to fill
the gap left between the PCB board and the bottom of the
package when lead forming is completed. On the heatsink option
of the package R64.C, the lead forming should be made so that
the bottom of the heatsink and the formed leads are flush.
General Heatsink Mounting Guidelines
The R64.C package option has a heatsink mounted on the
underside of the package. The following JESD-51x series
guidelines may be used to mount the package:
1. Place a thermal land on the PCB under the heatsink.
2. The land should be approximately the same size as to 1mm
larger than the 10.16x10.16mm heatsink.
3. Place an array of thermal vias below the thermal land.
- Via array size: ~9x9 = 81 thermal vias.
- Via diameter: ~0.3mm drill diameter with plated copper on
the inside of each via.
- Via pitch: ~1.2mm.
- Vias should drop to and contact as much metal area as
feasible to provide the best thermal path.
Heatsink Electrical Potential
The heatsink is connected to pin 50 within the package; thus the
PCB design and potential applied to pin 50 will therefore define
the heatsink potential. In this evaluation board pin 50 and the
heatsink are connected to ground.
Heatsink Mounting Materials
In the case of electrically conductive mounting methods
(conductive epoxy, solder, etc) the thermal land, vias and
connected plane(s) below must be the same potential as pin 50.
In the case of electrically nonconductive mounting methods
(nonconductive epoxy), the heatsink and pin 50 could have
different electrical potential than the thermal land, vias and
connected plane(s) below.
