ISL9440BEVAL1Z Evaluation Board
TABLE 1. FEATURES OF ISL944X FAMILY
The ISL9440BEVAL1Z evaluation board features the
ISL9440B. The ISL9440B is quad-output controller that
integrates three PWM synchronous buck controllers and one
low-dropout linear regulator controller. Then ISL9440B offers
programmable soft-start, independent enable functions and
integrates OV/OC/OT protection. The current mode control
architecture and internal compensation network keep
peripheral components to a minimum. The strong gate drivers
of the ISL9440B are capable of driving 20A current for
PWM1 and PWM2 and 15A for PWM3.
Table 1 shows the difference in terms of ISL944xx family
features.

What’s Insides
Quick Set-up Guide
The Evaluation Board Kit contains the following materials:
1. Ensure that the circuit is correctly connected to the supply
and electronics loads prior to applying any power. Please
refer to Figure 1 for proper set-up.
• The ISL9440BEVAL1Z
• The ISL9440B, ISL9440C datasheet
2. Connect Jumpers J3, J4 and J5 in the ENx positions.
• This EVAL KIT document
3. Turn on the power supply
Recommended Equipment
4. Adjust input voltage VIN within the specified range and
observe output voltage. The output voltage variation
should be within 3%.
The following materials are recommended to perform
testing:
• 0V to 24V power supply with at least 20A source current
capability
• Three electronics loads capable of sinking current up to 20A
5. Adjust load current within the specified range and
observe output voltage. The output voltage variation
should be within 3%.
6. Use oscilloscope to observe output voltage ripple and
Phase node ringing. For accurate measurement, refer to
Figure 2 for proper test set-up.
• Digital multimeters (DMMs)
• 100MHz quad-trace Oscilloscope
• Signal generator (for load transient tests)

5. Apply pulse square waveform to the ISTEP_CLK1,
ISTEP_CLK2 and ISTEP_CLK3. The duty cycle of the
pulse waveform should be small (<5%) to limit thermal
stress on current sensing resistor and the MOSFETs (Q8,
Q9 and Q10
6. The amplitude of the clock sets the current step
amplitude. Adjust the clock amplitude and slew rate to set
the current step and slew rate.

3. R12, R14, R16 are 10kΩ resistors for discharging the
MOSFET gates.
4. R13, R15 and R17 are current sensing resistors to
monitor the load step. For accurate measurement, please
use 5% tolerance sensing resistor or better. To alleviate
thermal stress, use 0.1Ω or smaller resistance. The
resistance of the sensing resistors sets the current scale
on the oscilloscope.
