General Description
Features
This document describes the setup procedure for the
ISL6225 Evaluation Board dual switcher implementation.
The ISL6225 can control two output voltages adjustable from
0.9V to 5.5V. The ISL6225 combines two synchronous PWM
voltage regulators into a single IC. PWM1 and PWM2 output
voltages are set by a simple feedback voltage divider
connected across the outputs to GND. The feedback voltage
divider outputs are 0.9VDC, which are connected to the
VSEN1 and VSEN2 pins.
• Provides regulated output voltage in the range of 0.9V–
5.5V
- High efficiency over wide load range
- Synchronous buck converter with hysteretic operation at
light load
- Inhibit Hysteretic mode on one, or both channels
Automatic mode selection of constant-frequency synchronous
rectification at heavy load, and hysteretic diode-emulation at
light load, assure high efficiency over a wide range of
conditions. The hysteretic mode of operation can be disabled
separately on each PWM converter if constant-frequency
continuous-conduction operation is desired for all load levels.
Efficiency is further enhanced by using the lower MOSFET
RDS(ON) as the current sense element.
• No current-sense resistor required
- Uses MOSFET RDS(ON)
- Optional current-sense resistor for precision OverCurrent
• Over-Voltage, Under-Voltage and Over-Current protection
on both channels
• Under-voltage lock-out on VCC pin
• Dual input voltage mode operation
- Operates directly from battery 5V to 24V input
- Operates from 3.3V or 5V system rail
- VCC from 5V only
Voltage-feed-forward ramp modulation, current mode control,
and internal feedback compensation provide fast response to
input voltage and output load transients.
• Excellent dynamic response
- Combined voltage feed-forward and average current
mode control
In dual power supply applications the ISL6225 monitors the
output voltage of both CH1 and CH2. An independent
PGOOD (power good) signal is asserted for each channel
after its soft-start sequence has completed, and the output
voltage is within ±10% of the set point.
• Power-good signal for each channel
• 300kHz switching frequency
- 180° channel to channel phase operation

Built-in over-voltage protection prevents the output from
going above 115% of the set point by holding the lower
MOSFET on and the upper MOSFET off. When the output
voltage decays below the over-voltage threshold, normal
operation automatically resumes. Once the soft-start
sequence has completed, under-voltage protection will latch
the channel off if the output drops below 75% of its set point
value.
Adjustable over-current protection (OCP) monitors the
voltage drop across the RDS(ON) of the lower MOSFET. If
more precise current-sensing is required, an external current
sense resistor may be used.

Quick Setup
• The VIN Power Supply must always be the first supply
on and the last supply off.
• The 5V VCC Power Supply must be between 5V ± 5%.
• Make sure the power is off before moving any jumpers,
except EN1 and EN2.
Step 1:
Set the output voltage of the 5V adjustable power
supply to zero volts. Connect the positive terminal
(+) of the power supply to the VCC terminal J4.
Connect the negative terminal (-) of the 5VDC
power supply to the GND terminal J14.
NOTE: Terminals J1 (EN1) and J12 (EN2) may be connected to a
Pulse generator for controlled on/off operation and may be observed
with an oscilloscope.
Step 14:
Read the DVM connected to the VOUT1
terminal J5.
Step 15:
Read the DVM connected to the VOUT2
terminal J6.
The 24V VIN Power Supply may be adjusted between 5-24
VDC.
If Hysteretic operation is desired move jumper J3 for PWM1
or JP4 for PWM2, to the position opposite the silk screen
“FCCM”.
The Electronic Load can be connected to VOUT1 and
VOUT2 for load regulator measurement.
Make sure the power is off before moving the jumpers.
Terminals J1 (EN1) and J12 (EN2) may be connected to a
Pulse generator for controlled on/off operation and may be
observed with an oscilloscope.
Make sure the enable voltage is less than 5V VCC.
