INTERSIL ISL8022IRZ

ISL8022
Features
The ISL8022 is a high efficiency, dual synchronous
step-down DC/DC regulator that can deliver up to
2A/1.7A continuous output current per channel. The
channels are 180° out-of-phase for input RMS current
and EMI reduction.The supply voltage range of 2.8V to
5.5V allows the use of a single Li+ cell, three NiMH cells
or a regulated 5V input. The current mode control
architecture enables very low duty cycle operation at
high frequency with fast transient response and excellent
loop stability. The ISL8022 operates at 2.25MHz
switching frequency allowing the use of small, low cost
inductors and capacitors. Each channel is optimized for
generating an output voltage as low as 0.6V.
• Dual 2A/1.7A High Efficiency Synchronous Buck
Regulator with up to 97% Efficiency, Low iq (40µA)
• 180° Out-of-Phase
• Start-up with Pre-biased Output
• Selectable Forced PWM Mode and PFM Mode
• External Synchronization up to 8MHz
• Negative Current Detection and Protection
• 100% Maximum Duty Cycle for Lowest Dropout
• Internal Current Mode Compensation
• Peak Current Limiting, Hiccup Mode Short Circuit
Protection and Over-Temperature Protection
The ISL8022 has a user configurable mode of
operation-forced PWM mode and PFM/PWM mode. The
forced PWM mode operation reduces noise and RF
interference while the PFM mode operation provides high
efficiency by reducing switching losses at light loads. In
PFM mode of operation, both channels draw a total
quiescent current of only 40µA hence enabling high light
load efficiency in order to maximize battery life.
• Pb-Free (RoHs Compliant)
Applications*(see page 17)
• DC/DC POL Modules
• µC/µP, FPGA and DSP Power
• Plug-in DC/DC Modules for Routers and Switchers
• Test and Measurement Systems
The ISL8022 offers a 1ms Power-Good (PG) to monitor
both outputs at power-up. When shutdown, ISL8022
discharges the outputs capacitor. Other features include
internal digital soft-start, enable for power sequence,
overcurrent protection, and thermal shutdown. The
ISL8022 is offered in a 4mmx3mm 12 Ld DFN package
with 1mm maximum height. The complete converter
occupies less than 1.8cm2 area.

ISL8022
Theory of Operation
The ISL8022 is a dual 2A/1.7A step-down switching
regulator optimized for battery-powered or mobile
applications. The regulator operates at 2.25MHz fixed
switching frequency under heavy load condition to allow
small external inductor and capacitors to be used for
minimal printed-circuit board (PCB) area. At light load,
the regulator reduces the switching frequency, unless
forced to the fixed frequency, to minimize the switching
loss and to maximize the battery life. The two channels
are 180° out-of-phase operation. The quiescent current
when the outputs are not loaded is typically only 40µA.
The supply current is typically only 6.5µA when the
regulator is shut down.

FIGURE 43. PWM OPERATION WAVEFORMS
PWM Control Scheme
SKIP Mode
Pulling the SYNC pin LOW (<0.4V) forces the converter into
PWM mode in the next switching cycle regardless of output
current. Each of the channels of the ISL8022 employs the
current-mode pulse-width modulation (PWM) control
scheme for fast transient response and pulse-by-pulse
current limiting shown in the “Block Diagram” on page 3.
The current loop consists of the oscillator, the PWM
comparator COMP, current sensing circuit, and the slope
compensation for the current loop stability. The current
sensing circuit consists of the resistance of the P-channel
MOSFET when it is turned on and the current sense
amplifier CSA1 (or CSA2 on Channel 2). The gain for the
current sensing circuit is typically 0.32V/A. The control
reference for the current loops comes from the error
amplifier EAMP of the voltage loop.
Pulling the SYNC pin HIGH (>1.5V) enable the converter
into PFM mode at low load. The ISL8022 enters a
pulse-skipping mode at light load to minimize the
switching loss by reducing the switching frequency.
Figure 44 illustrates the skip-mode operation. A
zero-cross sensing circuit shown in block diagram
monitors the N-MOSFET current for zero crossing. When
16 consecutive cycles of the N-MOSFET crossing zero are
detected, the regulator enters the skip mode. During the
16 detecting cycles, the current in the inductor is allowed
to become negative. The counter is reset to zero when
the current in any cycle does not cross zero.
The PWM operation is initialized by the clock from the
oscillator. The P-channel MOSFET is turned on at the
beginning of a PWM cycle and the current in the
MOSFET starts to ramp up. When the sum of the current
amplifier CSA1 (or CSA2) and the compensation slope
(0.9V/µs) reaches the control reference of the current
loop, the PWM comparator COMP sends a signal to the
PWM logic to turn off the P-MOSFET and to turn on the
N-channel MOSFET. The N-MOSFET stays on until the
end of the PWM cycle. Figure 43 shows the typical
operating waveforms during the PWM operation. The
dotted lines illustrate the sum of the compensation
ramp and the current-sense amplifier CSA_ output.
The output voltage is regulated by controlling the
reference voltage to the current loop. The bandgap
circuit outputs a 0.6V reference voltage to the voltage
control loop. The feedback signal comes from the VFB
pin. The soft-start block only affects the operation during
the start-up and will be discussed separately shortly. The
error amplifier is a transconductance amplifier that
converts the voltage error signal to a current output. The
voltage loop is internally compensated with the 27pF and
250kΩ RC network. The maximum EAMP voltage output
is precisely clamped to 1.8V.
14
Once the skip mode is entered, the pulse modulation
starts being controlled by the SKIP comparator shown in
the “Block Diagram” on page 3. Each pulse cycle is still
synchronized by the PWM clock. The P-MOSFET is turned
on at the clock and turned off when its current reaches
the threshold of 600mA. As the average inductor current
in each cycle is higher than the average current of the
load, the output voltage rises cycle over cycle. When the
output voltage reaches 1.5% above the nominal voltage,
the P-MOSFET is turned off immediately. Then the
inductor current is fully discharged to zero and stays at
zero. The output voltage reduces gradually due to the
load current discharging the output capacitor. When the
output voltage drops to the nominal voltage, the
P-MOSFET will be turned on again at the clock, repeating
the previous operations.
The regulator resumes normal PWM mode operation
when the output voltage drops 1.5% below the nominal
voltage.
Synchronization Control
The frequency of operation can be synchronized up to
8MHz by an external signal applied to the SYNC pin. The
1st falling edge on the SYNC triggered the rising edge of
the PWM ON pulse of Channel 1. The 2nd falling edge of
the SYNC triggers the rising edge of the PWM ON pulse of
the Channel 2. This process alternates indefinitely
allowing 180° output phase operation between the two
channels.The internal frequency will take control when
the divided external sync is lower than 2.25MHz. The
falling edge on the SYNC triggers the rising edge of the
PWM ON pulse.

Positive and Negative Overcurrent
Protection
CSA1 and CSA2 are used to monitor output 1 and
output 2 channels respectively. The overcurrent
protection is realized by monitoring the CSA_ output with
the OCP threshold logic, as shown in the “Block Diagram”
on page 3. The current sensing circuit has a gain of
0.32V/A, from the P-MOSFET current to the CSA_ output.
When the CSA_ output reaches the threshold of 1.25V
for Channel 1 and 1.1V for Channel 2, the OCP
comparator is tripped to turn off the P-MOSFET
immediately. The overcurrent function protects the
switching converter from a shorted output by
monitoring the current flowing through the upper
MOSFETs.
Upon detection of an overcurrent condition, the upper
MOSFET will be immediately turned off and will not be
turned on again until the next switching cycle. Upon
detection of the initial overcurrent condition, the
Overcurrent Fault Counter is set to 1 and the Overcurrent
Condition Flag is set from LOW to HIGH. If, on the
subsequent cycle, another overcurrent condition is
detected, the OC Fault Counter will be incremented. If
there are seventeen sequential OC fault detections, the
regulator will be shut down under an Overcurrent Fault
Condition. An Overcurrent Fault Condition will result with
the regulator attempting to restart in a hiccup mode with
the delay between restarts being 4 soft-start periods. At
the end of the fourth soft-start wait period, the fault
counters are reset and soft-start is attempted again. If
the overcurrent condition goes away prior to the OC Fault
Counter reaching a count of four, the Overcurrent
Condition Flag will set back to LOW.
In the event that the inductor current reaches -1.6A, the
part enters Negative Overcurrent Protection. At this
point, all switching stops and the part enters tri-state
mode while the pull-down FET is discharging the output
until it reaches normal regulation voltage, then the IC
restarts switching.
15
PG
The power-good signal (PG), monitors both of the output
channels. When powering up, the open-collector
Power-On-Reset output holds low for about 1ms after
VO1 and VO2 reaches the preset voltages. The PG output
also serves as a 1ms delayed power-good signal. If one
of the outputs is disabled, then PG only monitors the
active channels. There is an internal 1MΩ pull-up resistor.
UVLO
When the input voltage is below the undervoltage
lock-out (UVLO) threshold, the regulator is disabled.
Enable
The enable (EN1, EN2) input allows the user to control
the turning on or off the regulator for purposes such as
power-up sequencing. The regulator is enabled, there is
typically a 600µs delay for waking up the bandgap
reference and the soft start-up begins.
Soft Start-Up
The soft start-up eliminates the inrush current during the
start-up. The soft-start block outputs a ramp reference to
both the voltage loop and the current loop. The two
ramps limit the inductor current rising speed as well as
the output voltage speed so that the output voltage rises
in a controlled fashion. At the very beginning of the
start-up, the output voltage is less than 0.2V; hence the
PWM operating frequency is 1/3 of the normal frequency.
In forced PWM mode, the IC will continue to start-up in
PFM mode to support pre-biased load applications.
Discharge Mode (Soft-Stop)
When a transition to shutdown mode occurs, or the
output undervoltage fault latch is set, the outputs
discharge to GND through an internal 100Ω switch.
Power MOSFETs
The power MOSFETs are optimized for best efficiency.
The ON-resistance for the P-MOSFET is typically 100mΩ
and the ON-resistance for the N-MOSFET is typical 90mΩ.

ISL8022
100% Duty Cycle
The ISL8022 features 100% duty cycle operation to
maximize the battery life. When the battery voltage
drops to a level that the ISL8022 can no longer maintain
the regulation at the output, the regulator completely
turns on the P-MOSFET. The maximum dropout voltage
under the 100% duty-cycle operation is the product of
the load current and the ON-resistance of the P-MOSFET.
Thermal Shutdown
The ISL8022 has built-in thermal protection. When the
internal temperature reaches +150°C, the regulator is
completely shut down. As the temperature drops to
+130°C, the ISL8022 resumes operation by stepping
through a soft start-up.
Applications Information
Output Inductor and Capacitor Selection
To consider steady state and transient operation,
ISL8022 typically uses a 1.2µH output inductor. Higher or
lower inductor value can be used to optimize the total
converter system performance. For example, for higher
output voltage 3.3V application, in order to decrease the
inductor current ripple and output voltage ripple, the
output inductor value can be increased. The inductor
ripple current can be expressed as in Equation 1:
VO ⎞
⎛
V O • ⎜ 1 – ---------⎟
V
⎝
IN⎠
ΔI = --------------------------------------L • fS
(EQ. 1)
The inductor’s saturation current rating needs to be at
least larger than the peak current. The ISL8022 protects
the typical peak current 3.2A/2.8A. The saturation
current needs to be over 3.6A for maximum output
current application.
If the output voltage desired is 0.6V, then R3 is left
unpopulated and short R2. For better performance, add
10pF in parallel to R2.
Input Capacitor Selection
The main functions for the input capacitor is to provide
decoupling of the parasitic inductance and to provide
filtering function to prevent the switching current flowing
back to the battery rail. One 10µF X5R or X7R ceramic
capacitor is a good starting point for the input capacitor
selection per channel. An optional input inductor can be
used before the ceramic capacitor to limit switching
noise. It is recommended to limit the inductance less
than 0.15µH.
PCB Layout Recommendation
The PCB layout is a very important converter design step
to make sure the designed converter works well. Refer to
ISL8022 design procedure for suggestions. For ISL8022,
the power loop is composed of the output inductor L’s,
the output capacitor COUT1 and COUT2, the LX’s pins, and
the GND pin. It is necessary to make the power loop as
small as possible and the connecting traces among them
should be direct, short and wide. The switching node of
the converter, the LX_ pins, and the traces connected to
the node are very noisy, so keep the voltage feedback
trace away from these noisy traces. The input capacitor
should be placed to VIN pin as close as possible and the
ground of input and output capacitors should be
connected as close as possible. The heat of the IC is
mainly dissipated through the thermal pad. Maximizing
the copper area connected to the thermal pad is
preferable. In addition, a solid ground plane is helpful for
better EMI performance. It is recommended to add at
least 5 vias ground connection within the pad for the best
thermal relief.
ISL8022 uses internal compensation network and the
output capacitor value is dependent on the output voltage.
The ceramic capacitor is recommended to be X5R or X7R.
The recommended minimum output capacitor values are
shown in Table 1 for the ISL8022 on page 2.
Output Voltage Selection
The output voltage of the regulator can be programmed via
an external resistor divider that is used to scale the output
voltage relative to the internal reference voltage and feed it
back to the inverting input of the error amplifier. Refer to
“Typical Applications” on page 2 Figure 1.
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.
Let R3 = 100kΩ, then R2 will be as shown in Equation 2:
