ISL6269AEVAL2Z User Guide For ISL6269A and
ISL6269B PWM Controllers
®
Application Note
Introduction
The ISL6269AEVAL2Z evaluation board demonstrates the
performance of the ISL6269A or ISL6269B single-phase
synchronous-buck PWM controller featuring Intersil's Robust
Ripple Regulator (R3) technology. The ISL6269AEVAL2Z is
shipped with the ISL6269A controller installed. The
ISL6269B controller can be evaluated using the
ISL6269AEVAL2Z with no further circuit modifications
beyond changing the IC. An on-board dynamic-load
generator is included for evaluating the transient-load
response, that applies a 2.5ms pulse of 250mΩ across
VOUT and GND every 30ms. Contents of this document

PWM FREQUENCY
300 or 600
kHz
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) = 6.49kΩ where:
I PP
⎛ I + --------⎞ • OC SP • r DS ( ON )
⎝ FL
2 ⎠
R SEN = ---------------------------------------------------------------------------I OC
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
(EQ. 1)
- rDS(ON) of Q4 low-side MOSFETs is 15mΩ
- IOC is 26µA
- IFL is 5A continuous
- IPP is 1.5APP (30% of IFL 5A)
- OCSP is 2.1 (210% 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
ISL6269AEVAL2Z evaluation board is aggressively
compensated for approximately 100kHz bandwidth, making
the value of “K” effectively 58 x 10-12.
(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
AN1273.2
0.6V and 3.3V. If only one output voltage setting is desired,
this can be accomplished by simply not populating R16.

(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.
CAUTION: These devices are sensitive to electrostatic discharge; follow proper IC Handling Procedures.
