Intersil ISL91110IINZ-T Small 2.33mmx2.07mm wlcsp Datasheet

DATASHEET
High Efficiency Buck-Boost Regulator with 4.5A Switches
ISL91110
Features
The ISL91110 is a high-current buck-boost switching regulator
for systems using new battery chemistries. It uses Intersil’s
proprietary buck-boost algorithm to maintain voltage regulation
while providing excellent efficiency and very low output voltage
ripple when the input voltage is close to the output voltage.
• Accepts input voltages above or below regulated output
voltage
The ISL91110 is capable of delivering at least 2A continuous
output current (VOUT = 3.3V) over a battery voltage range of 2.5V
to 4.35V. This maximizes the energy utilization of advanced
single-cell Li-ion battery chemistries that have significant
capacity left at voltages below the system voltage. Its fully
synchronous low ON-resistance 4-switch architecture and a low
quiescent current of only 35µA optimize efficiency under all load
conditions.
The ISL91110 supports standalone applications with a fixed 3.3V
or 3.5V output voltage or adjustable output voltage with an
external resistor divider. Output voltages as low as 1.0V or as
high as 5.2V are supported.
The ISL91110 is available in a 25-bump, 0.4mm pitch WLCSP
(2.33mmx2.07mm) and a 2.5MHz switching frequency, which
further reduces the size of external components.
• Automatic and seamless transitions between buck and boost
modes
• Input voltage range: 1.8V to 5.5V
• Output current: up to 2A (PVIN = 2.5V, VOUT = 3.3V)
• Burst current: up to 3A (PVIN = 3V, VOUT = 3.3V, tON < 600µs,
t = 4.6ms)
• High efficiency: up to 96%
• 35µA quiescent current maximizes light-load efficiency
• 2.5MHz switching frequency minimizes external component
size
• Fully protected for short-circuit, over-temperature, and
undervoltage
• Small 2.33mmx2.07mm WLCSP
Applications
• Brownout free system voltage for smartphones and tablet PCs
• Wireless communication devices
• 2G/3G/4G RF power amplifiers

Functional Description
Functional Overview
Refer to the “Block Diagram” on page 2. The ISL91110
implements a complete buck-boost switching regulator, with
PWM controller, internal switches, references, protection circuitry
and control inputs.
The PWM controller automatically switches between buck and
boost modes as necessary to maintain a steady output voltage,
with changing input voltages and dynamic external loads.
Internal Supply and References
Referring to the “Block Diagram” on page 2, the ISL91110
provides four power input pins. The PVIN pin supplies input power
to the DC/DC converter, while the VIN pin provides operating
voltage source required for stable VREF generation. Separate
ground pins (GND and PGND) are provided to avoid problems
caused by ground shift due to the high switching currents.
Enable Input
The device is enabled by asserting the EN pin HIGH. Driving EN
LOW invokes a power-down mode, where most internal device
functions are disabled.
Soft Discharge
When the device is disabled by driving EN LOW, an internal resistor
between VOUT and GND is activated to slowly discharge the output
capacitor. This internal resistor has a typical 120Ω resistance.
POR Sequence and Soft-Start
Asserting the EN pin HIGH allows the device to power up. A
number of events occur during the start-up sequence. The
internal voltage reference powers up, and stabilizes. The device
then starts operating. There is a typical 1ms delay between
assertion of the EN pin and the start of switching regulator
soft-start ramp.

10µs/DIV
FIGURE 17. 4V TO 3.2V LINE TRANSIENT (VOUT = 3.3V, LOAD = 1A)
The soft-start feature minimizes output voltage overshoot and
input inrush currents. During soft-start, the reference voltage is
ramped to provide a ramping VOUT voltage. While the output
voltage is lower than approximately 20% of the target output
voltage, switching frequency is reduced to a fraction of the
normal switching frequency to aid in producing low duty cycles
necessary to avoid input inrush current spikes. Once the output
voltage exceeds 20% of the target voltage, switching frequency is
increased to its nominal value.
When the target output voltage is higher than the input voltage,
there will be a transition from buck mode to boost mode during
the soft-start sequence. At the time of this transition, the ramp
rate of the reference voltage is decreased, such that the output
voltage slew rate is decreased. This provides a slower output
voltage slew rate.
The VOUT ramp time is not constant for all operating conditions.
Soft-start into boost mode will take longer than soft-start into
buck mode. The total soft-start time into buck operating mode is
typically 2ms, whereas the typical soft-start time into boost
mode operating mode is typically 3ms. Increasing the load
current will increase these typical soft-start times.
Overcurrent Protection
The ISL91110 provides short-circuit protection by monitoring the
feedback voltage. When feedback voltage is sensed to be lower
than a certain threshold, the PWM oscillator frequency is
reduced in order to protect the device from damage. The
P-Channel MOSFET peak current limit remains active during this
state.
When the current in the P-Channel MOSFET is sensed to reach the
current limit for 16 consecutive switching cycles, the internal
protection circuit is triggered, and switching is stopped for
approximately 40ms. The device then performs a soft-start cycle. If
the external output overcurrent condition exists after the soft-start
cycle, the device will again detect 16 consecutive switching cycles
reaching the peak current threshold and turns off for 40ms. The
process will repeat as long as the external overcurrent condition is
present. This behavior is called “hiccup mode”.

temperature reaches +155°C (typical). At this die temperature, the
regulator is completely shut down. The die temperature continues to
be monitored in this thermal shutdown mode. When the die
temperature falls to +125°C (typical), the device will resume normal
operation. When exiting thermal shutdown, the ISL91110 will
execute its soft-start sequence.
Buck-Boost Conversion Topology
The ISL91110 operates in either buck or boost mode. When
operating in conditions where PVIN is close to VOUT, ISL91110
alternates between buck and boost mode as necessary to
provide a regulated output voltage.

FIGURE 18. BUCK BOOST TOPOLOGY
Figure 18 shows a simplified diagram of the internal switches
and external inductor.
In the adjustable output voltage version (ISL91110IIAZ), an
external resistor divider is required to program the output
voltage. The FB pin has very low input leakage current, so it is
possible to use large value resistors (e.g., R1 = 1MΩ and
R2 = 324kΩ for VOUT = 3.3V) in the resistor divider connected to
the FB input.
The fixed-output version of ISL91110 requires only three external
power components to implement the buck boost converter: an
inductor, an input capacitor and an output capacitor.
The adjustable output version of ISL91110 requires three
additional components to program the output voltage, as shown
in Figure 19. Two external resistors program the output voltage,
and a small capacitor is added to improve stability and response.

PWM Operation
VIN
In boost PWM mode, Switch A remains closed and Switch B
remains open. Switches C and D operate as a synchronous boost
converter when in this mode.
PFM Operation
During PFM operation in buck mode, Switch D is continuously
closed and Switch C is continuously open. Switches A and B
operate in discontinuous mode during PFM operation. During
PFM operation in boost mode, the ISL91110 closes Switch A and
Switch C to ramp up the current in the inductor. When the
inductor current reaches a certain threshold, the device turns off
Switches A and C, then turns on Switches B and D. With Switches
B and D closed, output voltage increases as the inductor current
ramps down.
In most operating conditions, there will be multiple PFM pulses
to charge up the output capacitor. These pulses continue until
VOUT has achieved the upper threshold of the PFM hysteretic
controller. Switching then stops, and remains stopped until VOUT
decays to the lower threshold of the hysteretic PFM controller.
Operation With VIN Close to VOUT
When the output voltage is close to the input voltage, the
ISL91110 will rapidly and smoothly switch from boost to buck

When VREF is connected to GND, setting and controlling the
output voltage of the ISL91110IIAZ (adjustable output version)
can be accomplished by selecting the external resistor values.

When designing a PCB, include a GND guard band around the
feedback resistor network to reduce noise and improve accuracy
and stability. Resistors R1 and R2 should be positioned close to
the FB pin.
Feed-Forward Capacitor Selection
A small capacitor (C3 in Figure 19) in parallel with resistor R1 is
required to provide the specified load and line regulation. The
suggested value of this capacitor is 56pF for R1 = 1MΩ. An NPO
type capacitor is recommended.

An inductor with high frequency core material (e.g., ferrite core)
should be used to minimize core losses and provide good
efficiency. The inductor must be able to handle the peak
switching currents without saturating.
A 1µH inductor with ≥4A saturation current rating is
recommended. Select an inductor with low DCR to provide good
efficiency. In applications where radiated noise must be
minimized, a toroidal or shielded inductor can be used.
PVIN and VOUT Capacitor Selection
The input and output capacitors should be ceramic X5R type with
low ESL and ESR. The recommended input capacitor value is
2x10µF. The recommended VOUT capacitor value is 2x22µF.

Recommended PCB Layout
Correct PCB layout is critical for proper operation of the
ISL91110. The input and output capacitors should be positioned
as closely to the IC as possible. The ground connections of the
input and output capacitors should be kept as short as possible,
and should be on the component layer to avoid problems that are
caused by high switching currents flowing through PCB vias.
