High-Efficiency, Quad or Triple-Output System Power Supply Controller for Notebook
Computers
The ISL62381, ISL62382, ISL62383, ISL62381C, ISL62382C
and ISL62383C family of controllers generate supply voltages
for battery-powered systems. These controllers include two
pulse-width modulation (PWM) controllers, adjustable from
0.6V to 5.5V, and two linear regulators, LDO5 and LDO3, that
generate a fixed 5V and an adjustable output respectively, and
each can deliver up to 100mA. The ISL62383 and ISL62383C
have the same outputs as the ISL62381, ISL62382, ISL62381C
and ISL62382C but without LDO3 linear regulator. The channel
2 switching regulator will automatically take over the LDO5 load
when programmed to 5V output. This provides a large power
savings and boosts efficiency. These controllers include onboard power-up sequencing, two power-good (PGOOD)
outputs, digital soft-start, and internal soft-stop output discharge
that prevent negative voltages on shutdown.
Features
The patented R3 PWM control scheme provides a low jitter
• Power-Good Indicator
system with fast response to load transients. Light-load
efficiency is improved with period-stretching discontinuous
conduction mode (DCM) operation. To eliminate noise in
audio frequency applications, an ultrasonic DCM mode is
included, which limits the minimum switching frequency to
approximately 28kHz.
• Overvoltage, Undervoltage and Overcurrent Protection
The ISL62381, ISL62382, ISL62381C and ISL62382C are
available in a 32 Ld 5x5 TQFN package, and the ISL62383
and ISL62383C are available in a 28 Ld 4x4 TQFN package.
This family of controllers can operate over the extended
temperature range (-10°C to +100°C).

Theory of Operation
Four Output Controller
The ISL62381, ISL62382, ISL62381C and ISL62382C
generate four regulated output voltages, including two PWM
controllers and two LDOs. The two PWM channels are
identical and almost entirely independent, with the exception of
sharing the GND pin. Unless otherwise stated, only one
individual channel is discussed, and the conclusion applies to
both channels.
PWM Modulator
The ISL62381, ISL62382, ISL62383, ISL62381C, ISL62382C
and ISL62383C modulator features Intersil’s R3 technology, a
hybrid of fixed frequency PWM control and variable frequency
hysteretic control. Intersil’s R3 technology can simultaneously
affect the PWM switching frequency and PWM duty cycle in
response to input voltage and output load transients. The R3
modulator synthesizes an AC signal VR, which is an analog
representation of the output inductor ripple current. The dutycycle of VR is the result of charge and discharge current
through a ripple capacitor CR. The current through CR is
provided by a transconductance amplifier gm that measures
the VIN and VO pin voltages. The positive slope of VR can be
written as Equation 1:
(EQ. 1)
V RPOS = g m   V IN – V OUT   C R
The negative slope of VR can be written as Equation 2:
V RNEG = g m  V OUT  C R
(EQ. 2)
Where gm is the gain of the transconductance amplifier.

A window voltage VW is referenced with respect to the error
amplifier output voltage VCOMP, creating an envelope into
which the ripple voltage VR is compared. The amplitude of VW
is set by a resistor connected across the FSET and GND pins.
The VR, VCOMP, and VW signals feed into a window
comparator in which VCOMP is the lower threshold voltage and
VCOMP + VW is the higher threshold voltage. Figure 23 shows
FN6665 Rev 6.00
October 23, 2015
PWM pulses being generated as VR traverses the VCOMP and
VCOMP + VW thresholds. The PWM switching frequency is
proportional to the slew rates of the positive and negative
slopes of VR; it is inversely proportional to the voltage between
VW and VCOMP. Equation 3 illustrates how to calculate the
window size based on output voltage and frequency set
resistor RW.
(EQ. 3)
V W = g m  V OUT   1 – D   R W
Programming the PWM Switching Frequency
These controllers do not use a clock signal to produce PWMs.
The PWM switching frequency FSW is programmed by the
resistor RW that is connected from the FSET pin to the GND
pin. The approximate PWM switching frequency can be
expressed as written in Equation 4:
1
F SW = --------------------------------10  C R  R W
(EQ. 4)
For a desired FSW, the RW can be selected by Equation 5.
1
R W = -----------------------------------10  C R  F SW
(EQ. 5)
where CR = 17pF with ±20% error range. To smooth the FSET
pin voltage, a ceramic capacitor such as 10nF is necessary to
parallel with RW.
It is recommended that whenever the control loop
compensation network is modified, FSW should be checked for
the correct frequency and if necessary, adjust RW.
Power-On Reset
These controllers are disabled until the voltage at the VIN pin
has increased above the rising power-on reset (POR)
threshold voltage. The controller will be disabled when the
voltage at the VIN pin decreases below the falling POR
threshold.
In addition to VIN POR, the LDO5 pin is also monitored. If its
voltage falls below 4.2V, the SMPS outputs will be shut down.
This ensures that there is sufficient BOOT voltage to enhance
the upper MOSFET.
EN, Soft-Start and PGOOD
These controllers use a digital soft-start circuit to ramp the
output voltage of each SMPS to the programmed regulation
setpoint at a predictable slew rate. The slew rate of the
soft-start sequence has been selected to limit the in-rush
current through the output capacitors as they charge to the
desired regulation voltage. When the EN pins are pulled above
their rising thresholds, the PGOOD Soft-Start Delay, tSS, starts
and the output voltage begins to rise. The FB pin ramps to 0.6V
in approximately 1.5ms and the PGOOD pin goes to high
impedance approximately 1.25ms after the FB pin voltage
reaches 0.6V.

FIGURE 24. SOFT-START SEQUENCE FOR ONE SMPS
The PGOOD pin indicates when the converter is capable of
supplying regulated voltage. It is an undefined impedance if VIN is
not above the rising POR threshold or below the POR falling
threshold. When a fault is detected, these controllers will turn on
the open-drain NMOS, which will pull PGOOD low with a nominal
impedance of 63 or 95 This will flag the system that one of the
output voltages is out of regulation.
Separate enable pins allow for full soft-start sequencing. Because
low shutdown quiescent current is necessary to prolong battery
life in notebook applications, the LDO5 5V LDO is held off until
any of the three enable signals (EN1, EN2 or LDO3EN) is pulled
high. Soft-start of all outputs will only start until after LDO5 is
above the 4.2V POR threshold. In addition to user-programmable
sequencing, these controllers include a pre-programmed
sequential SMPS soft-start feature. Table 1 shows the SMPS
enable truth table.
After VIN is applied, the VCC1 start-up 3.6V voltage can be used
as the logic high signal of any of EN1, EN2 and LDO3EN to
enable PVCC if there is no other power supply on the board.
MOSFET Gate-Drive Outputs LGATE and UGATE
These controllers have internal gate-drivers for the high-side and
low-side N-Channel MOSFETs. The low-side gate-drivers are
optimized for low duty-cycle applications where the low-side
MOSFET conduction losses are dominant, requiring a low
r DS(ON) MOSFET. The LGATE pull-down resistance is small in
order to clamp the gate of the MOSFET below the VGS(th) at turnoff. The current transient through the gate at turn-off can be
considerable because the gate charge of a low r DS(ON) MOSFET
can be large. Adaptive shoot-through protection prevents a gatedriver output from turning on until the opposite gate-driver output
has fallen below approximately 1V. The dead-time shown in
Figure 25 is extended by the additional period that the falling gate
voltage stays above the 1V threshold. The typical dead-time is
21ns. The high-side gate-driver output voltage is measured
across the UGATE and PHASE pins while the low-side gatedriver output voltage is measured across the LGATE and PGND
pins. The power for the LGATE gate-driver is sourced directly
from the LDO5 pin. The power for the UGATE gate-driver is
sourced from a “boot” capacitor connected across the BOOT and
PHASE pins. The boot capacitor is charged from the 5V LDO5
supply through a “boot diode” each time the low-side MOSFET
turns on, pulling the PHASE pin low. These controllers have
integrated boot diodes connected from the LDO5 pins to BOOT
pins.

Diode Emulation
FCCM is a logic input that controls the power state of these
controllers. If forced high, these controllers will operate in
forced continuous-conduction-mode (CCM) over the entire
load range. This will produce the best transient response to all
load conditions, but will have increased light-load power loss. If
FCCM is forced low, these controllers will automatically
operate in diode-emulation-mode (DEM) at light load to
optimize efficiency in the entire load range. The transition is
Page 15 of 24
ISL62381, ISL62382, ISL62383, ISL62381C, ISL62382C, ISL62383C
automatically achieved by detecting the load current and
turning off LGATE when the inductor current reaches 0A.
Positive-going inductor current flows from either the source of
the high-side MOSFET, or the drain of the low-side MOSFET.
Negative-going inductor current flows into the drain of the lowside MOSFET. When the low-side MOSFET conducts positive
inductor current, the phase voltage will be negative with
respect to the GND and PGND pins. Conversely, when the
low-side MOSFET conducts negative inductor current, the
phase voltage will be positive with respect to the GND and
PGND pins. These controllers monitor the phase voltage when
the low-side MOSFET is conducting inductor current to
determine its direction.
When the output load current is greater than or equal to ½ the
inductor ripple current, the inductor current is always positive,
and the converter is always in CCM. These controllers
minimize the conduction loss in this condition by forcing the
low-side MOSFET to operate as a synchronous rectifier.
When the output load current is less than ½ the inductor ripple
current, negative inductor current occurs. Sinking negative
inductor current through the low-side MOSFET lowers
efficiency through unnecessary conduction losses. These
controllers automatically enter DEM after the PHASE pin has
detected positive voltage and LGATE was allowed to go high
for eight consecutive PWM switching cycles. These controllers
will turn off the low-side MOSFET once the phase voltage turns
positive, indicating negative inductor current. These controllers
will return to CCM on the following cycle after the PHASE pin
detects negative voltage, indicating that the body diode of the
low-side MOSFET is conducting positive inductor current.
Efficiency can be further improved with a reduction of
unnecessary switching losses by reducing the PWM frequency.
It is characteristic of the R3 architecture for the PWM
frequency to decrease while in diode emulation. The extent of
the frequency reduction is proportional to the reduction of load
current. Upon entering DEM, the PWM frequency makes an
initial step-reduction because of a 33% step-increase of the
window voltage V W.
Because the switching frequency in DEM is a function of load
current, very light load conditions can produce frequencies well
into the audio band. This can be problematic if audible noise is
coupled into audio amplifier circuits. To prevent this from
occurring, these controllers allow the user to float the FCCM
input. This will allow DEM at light loads, but will prevent the
switching frequency from going below ~28kHz to prevent noise
injection into the audio band. A timer is reset each PWM pulse.
If the timer exceeds 30µs, LGATE is turned on, causing the
ramp voltage to reduce until another UGATE is commanded by
the voltage loop.

creating a DC voltage drop across the resistor ROCSET, given
by Equation 7:
(EQ. 7)
V ROCSET = 10A  R OCSET
Resistor RO is connected between the ISEN1 pin and the
actual output of the converter. During normal operation, the
ISEN1 pin is a high impedance path, therefore there is no
voltage drop across RO. The DC voltage difference between
the OCSET1 pin and the ISEN1 pin can be established using
Equation 8:
V OCSET1 – V ISEN1 = I L  DCR – 10A  R OCSET
(EQ. 8)
These controllers monitor the OCSET1 pin and the ISEN1 pin
voltages. Once the OCSET1 pin voltage is higher than the
ISEN1 pin voltage for more than 10µs, these controllers declare
an OCP fault. The value of ROCSET is then written as
Equation 9:
I OC  DCR
R OCSET = --------------------------10A
(EQ. 9)
Where:
- ROCSET () is the resistor used to program the
overcurrent setpoint
- IOC is the output current threshold that will activate the
OCP circuit
- DCR is the inductor DC resistance
For example, if IOC is 20A and DCR is 4.5m, the choice of
ROCSET is ROCSET = 20A x 4.5m/10µA = 9k

ISL62381, ISL62382, ISL62383, ISL62381C, ISL62382C, ISL62383C
Resistor ROCSET and capacitor CSEN form an RC network to
sense the inductor current. To sense the inductor current
correctly, not only in DC operation but also during dynamic
operation, the RC network time constant ROCSETCSEN needs
to match the inductor time constant L/DCR. The value of CSEN
is then written as Equation 10:
L
C SEN = ----------------------------------------R OCSET  DCR
(EQ. 10)
For example, if L is 1.5µH, DCR is 4.5m, and ROCSET is 9k
the choice of CSEN = 1.5µH/(9kx 4.5m) = 0.037µF
Upon converter start-up, the CSEN capacitor bias is 0V. To
prevent false OCP during this time, a 10µA current source
flows out of the ISEN1 pin, generating a voltage drop on the
RO resistor, which should be chosen to have the same
resistance as ROCSET. When PGOOD pin goes high, the
ISEN1 pin current source will be removed.
When an OCP fault is declared, the PGOOD pin will pull-down
to 32and latch off the converter. The fault will remain latched
until the EN pin has been pulled below the falling EN threshold
voltage, or until VIN has decayed below the falling POR
threshold.
When using a discrete current sense resistor, inductor
time-constant matching is not required. Equation 7 remains
unchanged, but Equation 8 is modified in Equation 11:
V OCSET1 – V ISEN1 = I L  R SENSE – 10A  R OCSET
(EQ. 11)
Furthermore, Equation 9 is changed in Equation 12:
I OC  R SENSE
R OCSET = ------------------------------------10A
(EQ. 12)
Where RSENSE is the series power resistor for sensing
inductor current. For example, with an RSENSE = 1m and an
OCP target of 10A, ROCSET = 1k
Overvoltage Protection
The OVP fault detection circuit triggers after the FB pin voltage
is above the rising overvoltage threshold for more than 2µs.
The FB pin voltage is 0.6V in normal operation. The rising over
voltage threshold is typically 116% of that value, or 1.16*0.6V =
0.696V.
When an OVP fault is declared, the PGOOD pin will pull down
with 65and latch-off the converter. The OVP fault will remain
latched until the EN pin has been pulled below the falling EN
threshold voltage, or until VIN has decayed below the falling
POR threshold.
For ISL62381, ISL62381C, ISL62383 and ISL62383C,
although the converter has latched-off in response to an OVP
fault, the LGATE gate-driver output will retain the ability to
toggle the low-side MOSFET on and off in response to the
output voltage transversing the OVP rising and falling
thresholds. The LGATE gate-driver will turn on the low-side
MOSFET to discharge the output voltage, thus protecting the
FN6665 Rev 6.00
October 23, 2015
load from potentially damaging voltage levels. The LGATE
gate-driver will turn off the low-side MOSFET once the FB pin
voltage is lower than the falling overvoltage threshold for more
than 2µs. The falling overvoltage threshold is typically 106% of
the reference voltage, or 1.06*0.6V = 0.636V. This process
repeats as long as the output voltage fault is present, allowing
the ISL62381, ISL62381C, ISL62383 and ISL62383C to
protect against persistent overvoltage conditions.
For ISL62382 and ISL62382C, if OVP is detected, it simply tristates the PHASE node by turning UGATE and LGATE off.
Undervoltage Protection
The UVP fault detection circuit triggers after the FB pin voltage
is below the undervoltage threshold for more than 2µs. The
undervoltage threshold is typically 86% of the reference
voltage, or 0.86*0.6V = 0.516V. If a UVP fault is declared, and
the PGOOD pin will pull-down with 93and latch-off the
converter. The fault will remain latched until the EN pin has
been pulled below the falling enable threshold, or if VIN has
decayed below the falling POR threshold.
Programming the Output Voltage
When the converter is in regulation, there will be 0.6V between
the FB and GND pins. Connect a two-resistor voltage divider
across the OUT and GND pins with the output node connected
to the FB pin, as shown in Figure 27. Scale the voltage-divider
network such that the FB pin is 0.6V with respect to the GND
pin when the converter is regulating at the desired output
voltage. The output voltage can be programmed from 0.6V to
5.5V.
Programming the output voltage is written as Equation 13:
R TOP 

V OUT = V REF   1 + -----------------------------
R

BOTTOM
(EQ. 13)
Where:
- VOUT is the desired output voltage of the converter
- The voltage to which the converter regulates the FB pin is
the VREF (0.6V)
- RTOP is the voltage-programming resistor that connects
from the FB pin to the converter output. In addition to
setting the output voltage, this resistor is part of the loop
compensation network
- RBOTTOM is the voltage-programming resistor that
connects from the FB pin to the GND pin
Choose RTOP first when compensating the control loop, and
then calculate RBOTTOM according to Equation 14:
V REF  R
TOP
R BOTTOM = ------------------------------------V OUT – V REF
(EQ. 14)
Compensation Design
Figure 27 shows the recommended Type-II compensation circuit.
The FB pin is the inverting input of the error amplifier. The COMP
signal, the output of the error amplifier, is inside the chip and
unavailable to users. CINT is a 100pF capacitor integrated inside
the IC that connects across the FB pin and the COMP signal.

Thermal Monitor and Protection
LDO3 and LDO5 can dissipate non-trivial power inside these
controllers at high input-to-output voltage ratios and full load
conditions. To protect the silicon, these controllers continually
monitor the die temperature. If the temperature exceeds +150°C,
all outputs will be turned off to sharply curtail power dissipation.
The outputs will remain off until the junction temperature has
fallen below +135°C.
General Application Design Guide
This design guide is intended to provide a high-level explanation
of the steps necessary to design a single-phase power
converter. It is assumed that the reader is familiar with many of
the basic skills and techniques referenced in the following
section. In addition to this guide, Intersil provides complete
reference designs that include schematics, bills of materials, and
example board layouts.
FIGURE 27. COMPENSATION REFERENCE CIRCUIT
The LC output filter has a double pole at its resonant frequency
that causes rapid phase change. The R3 modulator used in these
controllers make the LC output filter resemble a first order system
in which the closed loop stability can be achieved with the
recommended Type-II compensation network. Intersil provides a
PC-based tool (example page is shown later) that can be used
to calculate compensation network component values and help
simulate the loop frequency response.
LDO5 Linear Regulator
In addition to the two SMPS outputs, these controllers also
provide two linear regulator outputs. LDO5 is fixed 5V LDO output
capable of sourcing 100mA continuous current.
When the output of SMPS2 is programmed to 5V, SMPS2 will
automatically take over the load of LDO5. This provides a large
power savings and boosts the efficiency. After switchover to
SMPS2, the LDO5 output current plus the MOSFET drive
current should not exceed 100mA in order to guarantee the
LDO5 output voltage in the range of 5V ±5%. The total
MOSFET drive current can be estimated by Equation 16.
I DRIVE = Q g  F SW
(EQ. 16)
where Qg is the total gate charge of all the power MOSFET in
two SMPS regulators. Then the LDO5 output load current
should be less than 100mA-IDRIVE.
LDO3 Linear Regulator
ISL62381, ISL62381C, ISL62382 and ISL62382C include LDO3
linear regulator whose output is adjustable from 1.2V to 5V
through LDO3FB pin with a 1.2V reference voltage. It can be
independently enabled from both SMPS channels. Logic high of
LDO3EN will enable LDO3. LDO3 is capable of sourcing 100mA
continuous current and draws its power from LDO3IN pin, which
must be connected to a voltage greater than the LDO3 output
voltage plus the dropout voltage.
Currents in excess of the limit will cause the LDO3 voltage to
drop dramatically, limiting the power dissipation.

Selecting the LC Output Filter
The duty cycle of an ideal buck converter is a function of the
input and the output voltage. This relationship is written as
Equation 17:
V OUT
D = --------------V IN
(EQ. 17)
The output inductor peak-to-peak ripple current is written as
Equation 18:
V OUT   1 – D 
I PP = -------------------------------------F SW  L
(EQ. 18)
A typical step-down DC/DC converter will have an IP-P of 20%
to 40% of the maximum DC output load current. The value of
IP-P is selected based upon several criteria such as MOSFET
switching loss, inductor core loss, and the resistive loss of the
inductor winding. The DC copper loss of the inductor can be
estimated by Equation 19:
P COPPER = I LOAD
2

(EQ. 19)
DCR
Where ILOAD is the converter output DC current.
The copper loss can be significant so attention has to be given to
the DCR selection. Another factor to consider when choosing the
inductor is its saturation characteristics at elevated temperatures.
A saturated inductor could cause destruction of circuit
components, as well as nuisance OCP faults.
A DC/DC buck regulator must have output capacitance CO into
which ripple current IP-P can flow. Current IP-P develops out of
the capacitor. These two voltages are written as Equation 20:
V ESR = I PP  E SR
(EQ. 20)
and Equation 21:
I PP
V C = ------------------------------8  CO  F
(EQ. 21)
SW
If the output of the converter has to support a load with high
pulsating current, several capacitors will need to be paralleled to
reduce the total ESR until the required VP-P is achieved. The
Page 18 of 24
inductance of the capacitor can cause a brief voltage dip if the
load transient has an extremely high slew rate. Low inductance
capacitors should be considered in this scenario. A capacitor
dissipates heat as a function of RMS current and frequency. Be
sure that IP-P is shared by a sufficient quantity of paralleled
capacitors so that they operate below the maximum rated RMS
current at FSW. Take into account that the rated value of a
capacitor can fade as much as 50% as the DC voltage across it
increases.
Selection of the Input Capacitor
The important parameters for the bulk input capacitance are
the voltage rating and the RMS current rating. For reliable
operation, select bulk capacitors with voltage and current
ratings above the maximum input voltage and capable of
supplying the RMS current required by the switching circuit.
Their voltage rating should be at least 1.25 times greater than
the maximum input voltage, while a voltage rating of 1.5 times
is a preferred rating. Figure 28 is a graph of the input capacitor
RMS ripple current, normalized relative to output load current,
as a function of duty cycle and is adjusted for converter
efficiency. The normalized RMS ripple current calculation is
written as Equation 22:
2
Dk
I MAX  D   1 – D  + -------------12
I C  RMS ,NORMALIZED  = ----------------------------------------------------------------------I MAX
IN
(EQ. 22)
Where:
- IMAX is the maximum continuous ILOAD of the converter
- k is a multiplier (0 to 1) corresponding to the inductor
peak-to-peak ripple amplitude expressed as a percentage
of IMAX (0% to 100%)
- D is the duty cycle that is adjusted to take into account the
efficiency of the converter which is written as:
V OUT
D = -------------------------V IN  EFF
(EQ. 23)
In addition to the bulk capacitance, some low ESL ceramic
capacitance is recommended to decouple between the drain of
the high-side MOSFET and the source of the low-side
MOSFET.

MOSFET Selection and Considerations
Typically, a MOSFET cannot tolerate even brief excursions
beyond their maximum drain to source voltage rating. The
MOSFETs used in the power stage of the converter should
have a maximum VDS rating that exceeds the sum of the upper
voltage tolerance of the input power source and the voltage
spike that occurs when the MOSFET switches off.
There are several power MOSFETs readily available that are
optimized for DC/DC converter applications. The preferred
high-side MOSFET emphasizes low gate charge so that the
device spends the least amount of time dissipating power in
the linear region. Unlike the low-side MOSFET which has the
drain-source voltage clamped by its body diode during turn off,
the high-side MOSFET turns off with a VDS of approximately
VIN - VOUT, plus the spike across it. The preferred low-side
MOSFET emphasizes low r DS(ON) when fully saturated to
minimize conduction loss. It should be noted that this is an
optimal configuration of MOSFET selection for low duty cycle
applications (D < 50%). For higher output, low input voltage
solutions, a more balanced MOSFET selection for high- and
low-side devices may be warranted.
For the low-side (LS) MOSFET, the power loss can be assumed
to be conductive only and is written as Equation 24:
2
P CON_LS  I LOAD  r DS  ON _LS   1 – D 
(EQ. 24)
For the high-side (HS) MOSFET, the its conduction loss is
written as Equation 25:

Signal Ground and Power Ground
As an example, suppose the high-side MOSFET has a total
gate charge Qg, of 25nC at VGS = 5V, and a VBOOT of
200mV. The calculated bootstrap capacitance is 0.125µF; for a
comfortable margin, select a capacitor that is double the
calculated capacitance. In this example, 0.22µF will suffice.
Use an X7R or X5R ceramic capacitor.
The bottom of these controllers TQFN package is the signal
ground (GND) terminal for analog and logic signals of the IC.
Connect the GND pad of these controllers to the island of
ground plane under the top layer using several vias for a
robust thermal and electrical conduction path. Connect the
input capacitors, the output capacitors, and the source of the
lower MOSFETs to the power ground (PGND) plane.
Layout Considerations
The following pin descriptions use ISL62381 as an example.
As a general rule, power should be on the bottom layer of the
PCB and weak analog or logic signals are on the top layer of
the PCB. The ground-plane layer should be adjacent to the top
layer to provide shielding. The ground plane layer should have
an island located under the IC, the compensation components,
and the FSET components. The island should be connected to
the rest of the ground plane layer at one point.

FIGURE 29. TYPICAL POWER COMPONENT PLACEMENT
Because there are two SMPS outputs and only one PGND pin,
the power train of both channels should be laid out
symmetrically. The line of bilateral symmetry should be drawn
through pins 4 and 21 (pins 4 and 18 for ISL62383). This layout
approach ensures that the controller does not favor one
channel over another during critical switching decisions. Figure
30 illustrates one example of how to achieve proper bilateral
symmetry.
FN6665 Rev 6.00
October 23, 2015
PGND (Pin 23)
This is the return path for the pull-down of the LGATE low-side
MOSFET gate driver. Ideally, PGND should be connected to
the source of the low-side MOSFET with a low-resistance, lowinductance path.
VIN (Pin 21)
The VIN pin should be connected close to the drain of the highside MOSFET, using a low resistance and low inductance path.
VCC (Pins 4 and 5)
For best performance, place the decoupling capacitor very
close to the VCC and GND pins.
LDO5 (Pin 22)
For best performance, place the decoupling capacitor very
close to the LDO5 and respective PGND pin, preferably on the
same side of the PCB as the ISL62381 IC.
EN (Pins 13 and 28) and PGOOD (Pins 1 and 8)
These are logic signals that are referenced to the GND pin.
Treat as a typical logic signal.
OCSET (Pins 12 and 29) and ISEN (Pins 11 and 30)
For DCR current sensing, current-sense network, consisting of
ROCSET and CSEN, needs to be connected to the inductor
pads for accurate measurement. Connect ROCSET to the
phase-node side pad of the inductor, and connect CSEN to the
output side pad of the inductor. The ISEN resistor should also
Page 20 of 24
ISL62381, ISL62382, ISL62383, ISL62381C, ISL62382C, ISL62383C
be connected to the output pad of the inductor with a
separate trace. Connect the OCSET pin to the common
node of node of ROCSET and CSEN.
For resistive current sensing, connect ROCSET from the
OCSET pin to the inductor side of the resistor pad. The ISEN
resistor should be connected to the VOUT side of the resistor
pad.
In both current-sense configurations, the resistor and
capacitor sensing elements, with the exclusion of the current
sense power resistor, should be placed near the
corresponding IC pin. The trace connections to the inductor
or sensing resistor should be treated as Kelvin connections.
FB (Pins 9 and 32), and VOUT (Pins 10 and 31)
The VOUT pin is used to generate the R3 synthetic ramp
voltage and for soft-discharge of the output voltage during
shutdown events. This signal should be routed as close to
the regulation point as possible. The input impedance of the
FB pin is high, so place the voltage programming and loop
compensation components close to the VOUT, FB, and GND
pins keeping the high impedance trace short.
FSET (Pins 2 and 7)
These pins require a quiet environment. The resistor RFSET
and capacitor CFSET should be placed directly adjacent to
these pins. Keep fast moving nodes away from these pins.
FN6665 Rev 6.00
October 23, 2015
LGATE (Pins 17 and 24)
The signal going through these traces are both high dv/dt
and high di/dt, with high peak charging and discharging
current. Route these traces in parallel with the trace from the
PGND pin. These two traces should be short, wide, and
away from other traces. There should be no other weak
signal traces in proximity with these traces on any layer.
BOOT (Pins 16 and 25), UGATE (Pins 15 and 26), and
PHASE (Pins 14 and 27)
The signals going through these traces are both high dv/dt
and high di/dt, with high peak charging and discharging
current. Route the UGATE and PHASE pins in parallel with
short and wide traces. There should be no other weak signal
traces in proximity with these traces on any layer.
Copper Size for the Phase Node
The parasitic capacitance and parasitic inductance of the
phase node should be kept very low to minimize ringing. It is
best to limit the size of the PHASE node copper in strict
accordance with the current and thermal management of the
application. An MLCC should be connected directly across
the drain of the upper MOSFET and the source of the lower
MOSFET to suppress the turn-off voltage spike.
