Dual Synchronous Rectified MOSFET
Drivers
The ISL6610, ISL6610A integrates two ISL6609, ISL6609A
drivers with enable function removed and is optimized to
drive two independent power channels in a synchronousrectified buck converter topology. These drivers, combined
with an Intersil ISL63xx or ISL65xx multiphase PWM
controller, form a complete high efficiency voltage regulator
at high switching frequency.
The IC is biased by a single low voltage supply (5V),
minimizing driver switching losses in high MOSFET gate
capacitance and high switching frequency applications.
Each driver is capable of driving a 3nF load with less than
10ns rise/fall time. Bootstrapping of the upper gate driver is
implemented via an internal low forward drop diode,
reducing implementation cost, complexity, and allowing the
use of higher performance, cost effective N-Channel
MOSFETs. Adaptive shoot-through protection is integrated
to prevent both MOSFETs from conducting simultaneously.
The ISL6610, ISL6610A features 4A typical sink current for
the lower gate driver, enhancing the lower MOSFET gate
hold-down capability during PHASE node rising edge,
preventing power loss caused by the self turn-on of the lower
MOSFET due to the high dV/dt of the switching node.
The ISL6610, ISL6610A also features an input that
recognizes a high-impedance state, working together with
Intersil multiphase PWM controllers to prevent negative
transients on the controlled output voltage when operation is
suspended. This feature eliminates the need for the schottky
diode that may be utilized in a power system to protect the
load from negative output voltage damage.
In addition, the ISL6610As bootstrap function is designed to
prevent the BOOT capacitor from overcharging, should
excessively large negative swings occur at the transitions of
the PHASE node.

Operation and Adaptive Shoot-Through Protection
Designed for high speed switching, the ISL6610, ISL6610A
MOSFET driver controls both high-side and low-side NChannel FETs from one externally provided PWM signal.
A rising transition on PWM initiates the turn-off of the lower
MOSFET (see Figure 1). After a short propagation delay
[tPDLL], the lower gate begins to fall. Typical fall times [tFL]
are provided in the Electrical Specifications. Adaptive shootthrough circuitry monitors the LGATE voltage and turns on
the upper gate following a short delay time [tPDHU] after the
LGATE voltage drops below ~1V. The upper gate drive then
begins to rise [tRU] and the upper MOSFET turns on.
A falling transition on PWM indicates the turn-off of the upper
MOSFET and the turn-on of the lower MOSFET. A short
propagation delay [tPDLU] is encountered before the upper
gate begins to fall [tFU]. The adaptive shoot-through circuitry
monitors the UGATE-PHASE voltage and turns on the lower
MOSFET a short delay time, tPDHL, after the upper
MOSFET’s gate voltage drops below 1V. The lower gate then
rises [tRL], turning on the lower MOSFET. These methods
prevent both the lower and upper MOSFETs from conducting
simultaneously (shoot-through), while adapting the dead
time to the gate charge characteristics of the MOSFETs
being used.
This driver is optimized for voltage regulators with large step
down ratio. The lower MOSFET is usually sized larger
compared to the upper MOSFET because the lower
MOSFET conducts for a longer time during a switching
period. The lower gate driver is therefore sized much larger
to meet this application requirement. The 0.4Ω on-resistance
and 4A sink current capability enable the lower gate driver to
6
absorb the current injected into the lower gate through the
drain-to-gate capacitor (CGD) of the lower MOSFET and
help prevent shoot through caused by the self turn-on of the
lower MOSFET due to high dV/dt of the switching node.
Tri-State PWM Input
A unique feature of the ISL6610, ISL6610A is the adaptable
tri-state PWM input. Once the PWM signal enters the
shutdown window, either MOSFET previously conducting is
turned off. If the PWM signal remains within the shutdown
window for longer than 80ns of the previously conducting
MOSFET, the output drivers are disabled and both MOSFET
gates are pulled and held low. The shutdown state is
removed when the PWM signal moves outside the shutdown
window. The PWM rising and falling thresholds outlined in
the Electrical Specifications determine when the lower and
upper gates are enabled. During normal operation in a
typical application, the PWM rise and fall times through the
shutdown window should not exceed either output’s turn-off
propagation delay plus the MOSFET gate discharge time to
~1V. Abnormally long PWM signal transition times through
the shutdown window will simply introduce additional dead
time between turn off and turn on of the synchronous
bridge’s MOSFETs. For optimal performance, no more than
100pF parasitic capacitive load should be present on the
PWM line of ISL6610, ISL6610A (assuming an Intersil PWM
controller is used).
Bootstrap Considerations
This driver features an internal bootstrap diode. Simply
adding an external capacitor across the BOOT and PHASE
pins completes the bootstrap circuit. The ISL6610A’s internal
bootstrap resistor is designed to reduce the overcharging of
FN6395.0
November 22, 2006
ISL6610, ISL6610A
the bootstrap capacitor when exposed to excessively large
negative voltage swing at the PHASE node. Typically, such
large negative excursions occur in high current applications
that use D2-PAK and D-PAK MOSFETs or excessive layout
parasitic inductance. The following equation helps select a
proper bootstrap capacitor size:
Q GATE
C BOOT_CAP ≥ -------------------------------------ΔV BOOT_CAP
(EQ. 1)
Q G1 • PVCC
Q GATE = ------------------------------------ • N Q1
V GS1
where QG1 is the amount of gate charge per upper MOSFET
at VGS1 gate-source voltage and NQ1 is the number of
control MOSFETs. The ΔVBOOT_CAP term is defined as the
allowable droop in the rail of the upper gate drive.
As an example, suppose two HAT2168 FETs are chosen as
the upper MOSFETs. The gate charge, QG, from the data
sheet is 12nC at 5V (VGS) gate-source voltage. Then the
QGATE is calculated to be 26.4nC at 5.5V PVCC level. We
will assume a 100mV droop in drive voltage over the PWM
cycle. We find that a bootstrap capacitance of at least
0.264μF is required. The next larger standard value
capacitance is 0.33µF. A good quality ceramic capacitor is
recommended.

Power Dissipation
Package power dissipation is mainly a function of the
switching frequency (FSW), the output drive impedance, the
external gate resistance, and the selected MOSFET’s
internal gate resistance and total gate charge. Calculating
the power dissipation in the driver for a desired application is
critical to ensure safe operation. Exceeding the maximum
allowable power dissipation level will push the IC beyond the
maximum recommended operating junction temperature of
+125°C. The maximum allowable IC power dissipation for
7
the SO14 package is approximately 1W at room
temperature, while the power dissipation capacity in the
QFN packages, with an exposed heat escape pad, is around
2W. See Layout Considerations paragraph for thermal
transfer improvement suggestions. When designing the
driver into an application, it is recommended that the
following calculation is used to ensure safe operation at the
desired frequency for the selected MOSFETs. The total gate
drive power losses due to the gate charge of MOSFETs and
the driver’s internal circuitry and their corresponding average
driver current can be estimated with Equations 2 and 3,
respectively,
P Qg_TOT = 2 • ( P Qg_Q1 + P Qg_Q2 ) + I Q • VCC

(EQ. 3)
where the gate charge (QG1 and QG2) is defined at a
particular gate to source voltage (VGS1and VGS2) in the
corresponding MOSFET datasheet; IQ is the driver’s total
quiescent current with no load at both drive outputs and can
be negligible; NQ1 and NQ2 are number of upper and lower
MOSFETs, respectively. The factor 2 is the number of active
channels. The IQ VCC product is the quiescent power of the
driver without capacitive load and is typically negligible.
The total gate drive power losses are dissipated among the
resistive components along the transition path. The drive
resistance dissipates a portion of the total gate drive power
losses, the rest will be dissipated by the external gate
resistors (RG1 and RG2, should be a short to avoid
interfering with the operation shoot-through protection
circuitry) and the internal gate resistors (RGI1 and RGI2) of
MOSFETs. Figures 3 and 4 show the typical upper and lower
gate drives turn-on transition path. The power dissipation on
the driver can be roughly estimated as:

MOSFET and Driver Selection
The parasitic inductances of the PCB and of the power
devices’ packaging (both upper and lower MOSFETs) can
cause serious ringing, exceeding absolute maximum rating
of the devices. The negative ringing at the edges of the
PHASE node could increase the bootstrap capacitor voltage
through the internal bootstrap diode, and in some cases, it
may overstress the upper MOSFET driver. Careful layout,
proper selection of MOSFETs and packaging, as well as the
proper driver can go a long way toward minimizing such
unwanted stress.

FIGURE 5. PHASE RESISTOR TO MINIMIZE SERIOUS
NEGATIVE PHASE SPIKE
The selection of D2-PAK, or D-PAK packaged MOSFETs, is
a much better match (for the reasons discussed) for the
ISL6610A with a phase resistor, as shown in Figure 5. Low8
A good layout helps reduce the ringing on the switching
node (PHASE) and significantly lower the stress applied to
the output drives. The following advice is meant to lead to an
optimized layout and performance:
• Minimize trace inductance, especially on low-impedance
lines. All power traces (UGATE, PHASE, LGATE, PGND,
PVCC, VCC, GND) should be short and wide, at least 25
mils. Try to place power traces on a single layer,
otherwise, two vias on interconnection are preferred
where possible. For no connection (NC) pins on the QFN
part, connect it to the adjacent net (LGATE2/PHASE2) can
reduce trace inductance.
• Shorten all gate drive loops (UGATE-PHASE and LGATEPGND) and route them closely spaced.

Layout Considerations
• Keep decoupling loops (VCC-GND, PVCC-PGND and
BOOT-PHASE) short and wide, at least 25 mils. Avoid
using vias on decoupling components other than their
ground terminals, which should be on a copper plane with
at least two vias.
PVCC
RHI2
profile MOSFETs, such as Direct FETs and multi-SOURCE
leads devices (SO-8, LFPAK, PowerPAK), have low parasitic
lead inductances and can be driven by either ISL6610 or
ISL6610A (assuming proper layout design). The ISL6610,
missing the 3Ω integrated BOOT resistor, typically yields
slightly higher efficiency than the ISL6610A.
• Minimize the inductance of the PHASE node. Ideally, the
source of the upper and the drain of the lower MOSFET
should be as close as thermally allowable.
• Minimize the current loop of the output and input power
trains. Short the source connection of the lower MOSFET
to ground as close to the transistor pin as feasible. Input
capacitors (especially ceramic decoupling) should be
placed as close to the drain of upper and source of lower
MOSFETs as possible.
• Avoid routing relatively high impedance nodes (such as
PWM and ENABLE lines) close to high dV/dt UGATE and
PHASE nodes.
In addition, connecting the thermal pad of the QFN package
to the power ground through multiple vias, or placing a low
noise copper plane (such as power ground) underneath the
SOIC part is recommended. This is to improve heat
dissipation and allow the part to achieve its full thermal
potential.
Upper MOSFET Self Turn-On Effects At Startup
Should the driver have insufficient bias voltage applied, its
outputs are floating. If the input bus is energized at a high
dV/dt rate while the driver outputs are floating, due to the
self-coupling via the internal CGD of the MOSFET, the
UGATE could momentarily rise up to a level greater than the
threshold voltage of the MOSFET. This could potentially turn
on the upper switch and result in damaging inrush energy.

The coupling effect can be roughly estimated with the
following equations, which assume a fixed linear input ramp
and neglect the clamping effect of the body diode of the
upper drive and the bootstrap capacitor. Other parasitic
components such as lead inductances and PCB
capacitances are also not taken into account. These
equations are provided for guidance purpose only.
Therefore, the actual coupling effect should be examined
using a very high impedance (10MΩ or greater) probe to
ensure a safe design margin.

Therefore, if such a situation (when input bus powered up
before the bias of the controller and driver is ready) could
conceivably be encountered, it is a common practice to
place a resistor (RUGPH) across the gate and source of the
upper MOSFET to suppress the Miller coupling effect. The
value of the resistor depends mainly on the input voltage’s
rate of rise, the CGD/CGS ratio, as well as the gate-source
threshold of the upper MOSFET. A higher dV/dt, a lower
CDS/CGS ratio, and a lower gate-source threshold upper
FET will require a smaller resistor to diminish the effect of
the internal capacitive coupling. For most applications, the
integrated 20kΩ typically sufficient, not affecting normal
performance and efficiency.
