Pin Descriptions  
PIN NUMBER  
SYMBOL  
PIN DESCRIPTION  
1
SS  
The SS pin controls the soft-start ramp time of the output. A single capacitor from the SS pin to ground  
determines the output ramp rate. See the “Application Guidelines” on page 19 for soft-start details. If the  
SS pin is tied to VCC, an internal soft-start of 2ms will be used.  
2
SYNC  
Synchronization and light load operational mode selection input. Connect to logic high or VCC for PWM  
mode. Connect to logic low or ground for PFM mode. Connect to an external clock source for synchronization  
with positive edge trigger. Sync source must be higher than the programmed IC frequency. There is an  
internal 1MΩ pull-down resistor to prevent an undefined logic state if SYNC is left floating.  
3
4
BOOT  
VIN  
Floating bootstrap supply pin for the power MOSFET gate driver. The bootstrap capacitor provides the  
necessary charge to turn on the internal N-Channel MOSFET. Connect an external 100nF capacitor from this  
pin to PHASE.  
The input supply for the power stage of the regulator and the source for the internal linear bias regulator.  
Place a minimum of 4.7µF ceramic capacitance from VIN to GND and close to the IC for decoupling.  
5
6
7
PHASE  
PGND  
EN  
Switch node output. It connects the switching FET’s with the external output inductor.  
Power ground connection. Connect directly to the system GND plane.  
Regulator enable input. The regulator and bias LDO are held off when the pin is pulled to ground. When the  
voltage on this pin rises above 1V, the chip is enabled. Connect this pin to VIN for automatic start-up. Do not  
connect EN pin to VCC since the LDO is controlled by EN voltage.  
8
PG  
Open drain power-good output that is pulled to ground when the output voltage is below regulation limits  
or during the soft-start interval. There is an internal 5MΩ internal pull-up resistor.  
9
VCC  
FB  
Output of the internal 5V linear bias regulator. Decouple to PGND with a 1µF ceramic capacitor at the pin.  
10  
Feedback pin for the regulator. FB is the inverting input to the voltage loop error amplifier. COMP is the  
output of the error amplifier. The output voltage is set by an external resistor divider connected to FB. In  
addition, the PWM regulator’s power-good and UVLO circuits use FB to monitor the regulator output voltage.  
11  
COMP  
COMP is the output of the error amplifier. When it is tied to VCC, internal compensation is used. When only  
an RC network is connected from COMP to GND, external compensation is used. See “Loop Compensation  
Design” on page 20 for more details.  
12  
FS  
Frequency selection pin. Tie to VCC for 500kHz switching frequency. Connect a resistor to GND for  
adjustable frequency from 300kHz to 2MHz.  
EPAD  
GND  
Signal ground connections. Connect to application board GND plane with at least 5 vias. All voltage levels  
are measured with respect to this pin. The EPAD MUST not float.

Detailed Description  
Diagram” on page 5. The current loop consists of the current  
sensing circuit, slope compensation ramp, PWM comparator,  
oscillator and latch. Current sense trans-resistance is typically  
600mV/A and slope compensation rate, Se, is typically 450mV/T  
where T is the switching cycle period. The control reference for  
The ISL85415 combines a synchronous buck PWM controller  
with integrated power switches. The buck controller drives  
internal high-side and low-side N-channel MOSFETs to deliver  
load current up to 500mA. The buck regulator can operate from  
an unregulated DC source, such as a battery, with a voltage  
ranging from +3V to +36V. An internal LDO provides bias to the  
low voltage portions of the IC.  
the current loop comes from the error amplifier’s output (V

A PWM cycle begins when a clock pulse sets the PWM latch and  
the upper FET is turned on. Current begins to ramp up in the upper  
FET and inductor. This current is sensed (V ), converted to a

turned off and the lower FET turned on allowing current to ramp  
down in the inductor. The lower FET will remain on until the clock  
initiates another PWM cycle. Figure 56 shows the typical operating  
waveforms during the PWM operation. The dotted lines illustrate  
the sum of the current sense and slope compensation signal.  
The buck regulator is equipped with an internal current sensing  
circuit and the peak current limit threshold is typically set at  
0.9A.  
Power-On Reset  
Output voltage is regulated as the error amplifier varies V  
COMP  
The ISL85415 automatically initializes upon receipt of the input  
power supply and continually monitors the EN pin state. If EN is  
held below its logic rising threshold the IC is held in shutdown  
and consumes typically 1µA from the VIN supply. If EN exceeds  
its logic rising threshold, the regulator will enable the bias LDO  
and begin to monitor the VCC pin voltage. When the VCC pin  
voltage clears its rising POR threshold the controller will initialize  
the switching regulator circuits. If VCC never clears the rising POR  
threshold, the controller will not allow the switching regulator to  
operate. If VCC falls below its falling POR threshold while the  
switching regulator is operating, the switching regulator will be  
shut down until VCC returns.  
and thus output inductor current. The error amplifier is a  
trans-conductance type and its output (COMP) is terminated with  
a series RC network to GND. This termination is internal  
(150k/54pF) if the COMP pin is tied to VCC. Additionally, the  
trans-conductance for COMP = V is 50µs vs 220µs for external  
CC  
RC connection. Its non-inverting input is internally connected to a  
600mV reference voltage and its inverting input is connected to  
the output voltage via the FB pin and its associated divider  
network.

to its final regulated value. Soft-start time is determined by the  
SS pin connection. If SS is pulled to VCC, an internal 2ms timer is  
selected for soft-start. For other soft-start times, simply connect  
a capacitor from SS to GND. In this case, a 2µA current pulls up  
the SS voltage and the FB pin will follow this ramp until it reaches  
the 600mV reference level. Soft-start time for this case is  
described by Equation 1:

PG is the open-drain output of a window comparator that  
Light Load Operation  
continuously monitors the buck regulator output voltage via the  
FB pin. PG is actively held low when EN is low and during the  
buck regulator soft-start period. After the soft-start period  
completes, PG becomes high impedance provided the FB pin is  
within the range specified in the “Electrical Specifications” on  
page 3. Should FB exit the specified window, PG will be pulled  
low until FB returns. Over-temperature faults also force PG low  
until the fault condition is cleared by an attempt to soft-start.  
There is an internal 5MΩ internal pull-up resistor.  
At light loads, converter efficiency may be improved by enabling  
variable frequency operation (PFM). Connecting the SYNC pin to  
GND will allow the controller to choose such operation  
automatically when the load current is low. Figure 57 shows the  
DCM operation. The IC enters the DCM mode of operation when 8  
consecutive cycles of inductor current crossing zero are detected.  
This corresponds to a load current equal to 1/2 the peak-to-peak  
inductor ripple current and set by the following Equation 2:

While operating in PFM mode, the regulator controls the output  
voltage with a simple comparator and pulsed FET current. A  
comparator signals the point at which FB is equal to the 600mV  
reference at which time the regulator begins providing pulses of  
current until FB is moved above the 600mV reference by 1%. The  
current pulses are approximately 300mA and are issued at a  
frequency equal to the converters programmed PWM operating  
frequency.  
Protection Features  
The ISL85415 is protected from overcurrent, negative  
overcurrent and over-temperature. The protection circuits  
operate automatically.  
Overcurrent Protection  
During PWM on-time, current through the upper FET is monitored  
and compared to a nominal 0.9A peak overcurrent limit. In the  
event that current reaches the limit, the upper FET will be turned  
off until the next switching cycle. In this way, FET peak current is  
always well limited.  
Due to the pulsed current nature of PFM mode, the converter can  
supply limited current to the load. Should load current rise  
beyond the limit, VOUT will begin to decline. A second  
comparator signals an FB voltage 1% lower than the 600mV  
reference and forces the converter to return to PWM operation.  
If the overcurrent condition persists for 17 sequential clock  
cycles, the regulator will begin its hiccup sequence. In this case,  
both FETS will be turned off and PG will be pulled low. This  
condition will be maintained for 8 soft-start periods after which,  
the regulator will attempt a normal soft-start.  
Output Voltage Selection  
The regulator output voltage is easily programmed using an  
external resistor divider to scale V  
relative to the internal  
OUT  
reference voltage. The scaled voltage is applied to the inverting  
input of the error amplifier; refer to Figure 57.  
Should the output fault persist, the regulator will repeat the  
hiccup sequence indefinitely. There is no danger even if the  
output is shorted during soft-start.  
The output voltage programming resistor, R , depends on the  
3
value chosen for the feedback resistor, R , and the desired  
output voltage, V , of the regulator. Equation 3 describes the

ths

If V

is shorted very quickly, FB may collapse below 5/8 of  
its target value before 17 cycles of overcurrent are detected. The  
ISL85415 recognizes this condition and will begin to lower its  
switching frequency proportional to the FB pin voltage. This

the external source is low impedance, current may be reversed to  
unacceptable levels and the controller will initiate its negative  
current limit protection. Similar to normal overcurrent, the  
negative current protection is realized by monitoring the current  
through the lower FET. When the valley point of the inductor  
current reaches negative current limit, the lower FET is turned off  
and the upper FET is forced on until current reaches the POSITIVE  
current limit or an internal clock signal is issued. At this point, the  
lower FET is allowed to operate. Should the current again be pulled

limit. At this point the controller will turn off both FET’s and wait for  
COMP to indicate return to normal operation. During this time, the  
controller will apply a 100Ω load from PHASE to PGND and  
attempt to discharge the output. Negative current limit is a  
pulse-by-pulse style operation and recovery is automatic. Negative  
current limit protection is disabled in PFM operating mode  
because reverse current is not allowed to build due to the diode  
emulation behavior of the lower FET.

sequence. For continuous operation, the +125°C junction  
temperature rating should not be exceeded.

Output Inductor Selection  
The inductor value determines the converter’s ripple current.  
Choosing an inductor current requires a somewhat arbitrary  
choice of ripple current, ΔI. A reasonable starting point is 30% of  
total load current. The inductor value can then be calculated  
using Equation 5:

components involves selecting internal settings for SS, COMP  
and FS. Table 2 on page 4 provides component value selections  
for a variety of output voltages and will allow the designer to  
implement solutions with a minimum of effort.  
Increasing the value of inductance reduces the ripple current and  
thus, the ripple voltage. However, the larger inductance value  
may reduce the converter’s response time to a load transient.  
The inductor current rating should be such that it will not saturate  
in overcurrent conditions. For typical ISL85415 applications,  
inductor values generally lies in the 10µH to 47µH range. In

Buck Regulator Output Capacitor Selection

capacitors and thus supports very small circuit implementations  
on the PC board. Electrolytic and polymer capacitors may also be  
used.

result, the actual capacitance may be considerably lower than

determine the actual in-application capacitance. Most  
manufacturers publish capacitance vs DC bias so that this effect  
can be easily accommodated. The effects of AC voltage are not

When COMP is not connected to VCC, the COMP pin is active for  
external loop compensation. The ISL85415 uses constant  
frequency peak current mode control architecture to achieve a  
fast loop transient response. An accurate current sensing pilot  
device in parallel with the upper MOSFET is used for peak current  
control signal and overcurrent protection. The inductor is not  
considered as a state variable since its peak current is constant,  
and the system becomes a single order system. It is much easier  
to design a type II compensator to stabilize the loop than to  
implement voltage mode control. Peak current mode control has  
an inherent input voltage feed-forward function to achieve good  
line regulation. Figure 60 shows the small signal model of the

Proper layout of the power converter will minimize EMI and noise  
and insure first pass success of the design. PCB layouts are  
provided in multiple formats on the Intersil web site. In addition,  
Figure 63 will make clear the important points in PCB layout. In  
reality, PCB layout of the ISL85415 is quite simple.

could each represent multiple physical capacitors. The most  
critical connections are to tie the PGND pin to the package GND  
pad and then use vias to directly connect the GND pad to the  
system GND plane. This connection of the GND pad to system  
plane insures a low impedance path for all return current, as well  
as an excellent thermal path to dissipate heat. With this  
connection made, place the high frequency MLCC input capacitor  
near the VIN pin and use vias directly at the capacitor pad to tie  
the capacitor to the system GND plane.
