FN6306.0  
5V or 12V Single Synchronous Buck  
Features  
Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) Controller  
• Operates from +5V or +12V Supply Voltage (for bias)  
- 1.0V to 12V V Input Range  
The ISL8105 makes simple work out of implementing a  
complete control and protection scheme for a DC/DC  
stepdown converter driving N-channel MOSFETs in a  
synchronous buck topology. Since it can work with either 5V  
or 12V supplies, this one IC can be used in a wide variety of  
applications within a system. The ISL8105 integrates the  
control, gate drivers, output adjustment, monitoring and  
protection functions into a single 8 Ld SOIC package.  
IN  
- 0.6V to V Output Range  
IN  
- Integrated Gate Drivers use V  
(5V - 12V)  
CC  
- 0.6V Internal Reference; ±1.0% tolerance  
• Simple Single-Loop Control Design  
- Voltage-Mode PWM Control  
- Drives N-Channel MOSFETs  
• Fast Transient Response  
The ISL8105 provides single feedback loop, voltage-mode  
control with fast transient response. The output voltage can  
be precisely regulated to as low as 0.6V, with a maximum  
tolerance of ±1.0% over temperature and line voltage  
variations. A selectable fixed frequency oscillator (ISL8105  
for 300kHz; ISL8105A for 600kHz) reduces design  
complexity, while balancing typical application cost and  
efficiency.  
- High-Bandwidth Error Amplifier  
- Full 0% to 100% Duty Cycle  
• Lossless, Programmable Overcurrent Protection  
- Uses Lower MOSFET’s r  
DS(ON)  
• Small Converter Size in 8 Ld SOIC  
- 300kHz or 600kHz Fixed Frequency Oscillator  
- Fixed Internal Soft-Start, Capable into a Pre-biased  
Load  
The error amplifier features a 20MHz gain-bandwidth  
product and 9V/μs slew rate which enables high converter  
bandwidth for fast transient performance. The resulting  
PWM duty cycles range from 0% to 100%.  
- Integrated Boot Diode  
- Enable/Shutdown Function on COMP/SD Pin  
- Output Current Sourcing and Sinking  
Protection from overcurrent conditions is provided by  
• Pb-Free Plus Anneal Available (RoHS Compliant)  
monitoring the r  
of the lower MOSFET to inhibit PWM  
DS(ON)  
operation appropriately. This approach simplifies the  
implementation and improves efficiency by eliminating the  
need for a current sense resistor.

This pin provides the bias supply for the ISL8105, as well as  
the lower MOSFET’s gate, and the BOOT voltage for the  
upper MOSFET’s gate. An internal 5V regulator will supply  
shut-down (disable) the controller, which causes the  
oscillator to stop, the LGATE and UGATE outputs to be held  
low, and the soft-start circuitry to re-arm. The external pull-  
down device will initially need to overcome up to 5mA of  
COMP/SD output current. However, once the IC is disabled,  
the COMP output will also be disabled, so only a 20µA  
current source will continue to draw current.

rises above 6.5V (but the LGATE/OCSET and  
CC  
BOOT will still be sourced by V ). Connect a well-  
CC  
decoupled 5V or 12V supply to this pin.  
FB (Pin 6)  
This pin is the inverting input of the internal error amplifier.  
Use FB, in combination with the COMP/SD pin, to  
compensate the voltage-control feedback loop of the  
converter. A resistor divider from the output to GND is used  
to set the regulation voltage.  
When the pull-down device is released, the COMP/SD pin  
will start to rise, at a rate determined by the 20µA charging  
up the capacitance on the COMP/SD pin. When the  
COMP/SD pin rises above the V  
trip point, the  
DISABLE  
ISL8105 will begin a new Initialization and soft-start cycle.  
GND (Pin 3)  
LGATE/OCSET (Pin 4)  
This pin represents the signal and power ground for the IC.  
Tie this pin to the ground island/plane through the lowest  
impedance connection available.  
Connect this pin to the gate of the lower MOSFET; it provides  
the PWM-controlled gate drive (from V ). This pin is also  
CC  
monitored by the adaptive shoot-through protection circuitry to  
determine when the lower MOSFET has turned off.  
PHASE (Pin 8)  
Connect this pin to the source of the upper MOSFET, and  
the drain of the lower MOSFET. It is used as the sink for the  
UGATE driver, and to monitor the voltage drop across the  
lower MOSFET for overcurrent protection. This pin is also  
monitored by the adaptive shoot-through protection circuitry  
to determine when the upper MOSFET has turned off.  
During a short period of time following Power-On Reset  
(POR) or shut-down release, this pin is also used to  
determine the overcurrent threshold of the converter.  
Connect a resistor (R  
) from this pin to GND. See the  
OCSET  
Overcurrent Protection section for equations. An  
overcurrent trip cycles the soft-start function, after two  
dummy soft-start time-outs. Some of the text describing the  
LGATE function may leave off the OCSET part of the name,  
when it is not relevant to the discussion.  
UGATE (Pin 2)  
Connect this pin to the gate of upper MOSFET; it provides  
the PWM-controlled gate drive. It is also monitored by the  
adaptive shoot-through protection circuitry to determine  
when the upper MOSFET has turned off.

If the COMP/SD pin is held low during power-up, that will just  
delay the initialization until it is released, and the COMP/SD  
sets up a voltage that will represent the OCSET trip point. At  
T2, there is a variable time period for the OCP sample and hold  
operation (0 to 3.4ms nominal; the longer time occurs with the  
higher overcurrent setting). The sample and hold uses a digital  
counter and DAC to save the voltage, so the stored value does

voltage ramps up between T4 and T5.

Functionally, the soft-start internally ramps the reference on the  
non-inverting terminal of the error amp from zero to 0.6V in a  
nominal 6.8ms The output voltage will thus follow the ramp,  
from zero to final value, in the same 6.8ms (the actual ramp

The ramp is created digitally, so there will be 64 small discrete  
steps. There is no simple way to change this ramp rate  
externally, and it is the same for either frequency version of the  
IC (300kHz or 600kHz).  
FIGURE 1. POR AND SOFT-START OPERATION  
Figure 2 shows a typical power-up sequence in more detail.  
The initialization starts at T0, when either V rises above  
CC  
, or the COMP/SD pin is released (after POR). The

After an initialization period (T3 to T4), the error amplifier  
(COMP/SD pin) is enabled, and begins to regulate the  
converter’s output voltage during soft-start. The oscillator’s  
triangular waveform is compared to the ramping error amplifier  
voltage. This generates PHASE pulses of increasing width that  
charge the output capacitors. When the internally generated  
soft-start voltage exceeds the reference voltage (0.6V), the soft-  
start is complete, and the output should be in regulation at the  
expected voltage. This method provides a rapid and controlled  
output voltage rise; there is no large inrush current charging the  
output capacitors. The entire start-up sequence from POR  
typically takes up to 17ms; up to 10.2ms for the delay and OCP  
sample, and 6.8ms for the soft-start ramp.  
POR  
COMP/SD will be pulled up by an internal 20µA current  
source, but the timing will not begin until the COMP/SD  
exceeds the V  
trip point (at T1). The external  
DISABLE  
capacitance of the disabling device, as well as the  
compensation capacitors, will determine how quickly the  
20µA current source will charge the COMP/SD pin. With  
typical values, it should add a small delay compared to the  
soft-start times. The COMP/SD will continue to ramp to ~1V.

Figure 3 shows the normal curve in blue; initialization begins  
at T0, and the output ramps between T1 and T2. If the output  
is pre-biased to a voltage less than the expected value, as

condition. Neither MOSFET will turn on until the soft-start

ramping from there. If the output is pre-biased to a voltage  
above the expected value, as in the red curve, neither  
MOSFET will turn on until the end of the soft-start, at which  
time it will pull the output voltage down to the final value. Any  
resistive load connected to the output will help pull down the  
voltage (at the RC rate of the R of the load and the C of the  
output capacitance).

The actual monitoring of the lower MOSFET’s on-resistance  
starts 200ns (nominal) after the edge of the internal PWM  
logic signal (that creates the rising external LGATE signal).  
This is done to allow the gate transition noise and ringing on  
the PHASE pin to settle out before monitoring. The monitoring  
ends when the internal PWM edge (and thus LGATE) goes  
low. The OCP can be detected anywhere within the above  
window.

then the third pulse will be stretched and/or inserted to the  
425ns minimum width. This allows for OCP monitoring every  
third pulse under this condition. This can introduce a small  
pulse-width error on the output voltage, which will be  
corrected on the next pulse; and the output ripple voltage will  
have an unusual 3-clock pattern, which may look like jitter. If  
the OCP is disabled (by choosing a too-high value of  
supply that comes up after V , the soft-start would go

zero up to the final expected voltage. If V is too fast, there

output by using the lower MOSFET’s on-resistance, r

to monitor the current. A resistor (R ) programs the

overcurrent trip level (see Typical Application diagram). This  
method enhances the converter’s efficiency and reduces cost  
by eliminating a current sensing resistor. If overcurrent is  
detected, the output immediately shuts off, it cycles the soft-  
start function in a hiccup mode (2 dummy soft-start time-outs,  
then up to one real one) to provide fault protection. If the  
shorted condition is not removed, this cycle will continue  
indefinitely.

Figure 5 shows the output response during a retry of an  
output shorted to GND. At time T0, the output has been  
turned off, due to sensing an overcurrent condition. There  
are two internal soft-start delay cycles (T1 and T2) to allow  
the MOSFETs to cool down, to keep the average power  
dissipation in retry at an acceptable level. At time T2, the  
output starts a normal soft-start cycle, and the output tries to  
ramp. If the short is still applied, and the current reaches the  
OCSET trip point any time during soft-start ramp period, the  
output will shut off, and return to time T0 for another delay  
cycle. The retry period is thus two dummy soft-start cycles  
plus one variable one (which depends on how long it takes to  
trip the sensor each time). Figure 5 shows an example  
where the output gets about half-way up before shutting  
down; therefore, the retry (or hiccup) time will be around  
17ms. The minimum should be nominally 13.6ms and the  
maximum 20.4ms. If the short condition is finally removed,  
the output should ramp up normally on the next T2 cycle.  
usable setting is around 0.2V across R  
(0.4V across  
OCSET  
the MOSFET); values above that might disable the  
protection. Any voltage drop across R that is greater  
OCSET  
than 0.3V (0.6V MOSFET trip point) will disable the OCP.  
The preferred method to disable OCP is simply to remove  
the resistor; that will be detected that as no OCP.  
Note that conditions during power-up or during a retry may  
look different than normal operation. During power-up in a  
12V system, the IC starts operation just above 4V; if the  
supply ramp is slow, the soft-start ramp might be over well  
before 12V is reached. So with lower gate drive voltages, the  
r
of the MOSFETs will be higher during power-up,  
DS(ON)  
effectively lowering the OCP trip. In addition, the ripple  
current will likely be different at lower input voltage.  
Another factor is the digital nature of the soft-start ramp. On  
each discrete voltage step, there is in effect a small load  
transient, and a current spike to charge the output  
capacitors. The height of the current spike is not controlled; it  
is affected by the step size of the output, the value of the  
output capacitors, as well as the IC error amp compensation.  
So it is possible to trip the overcurrent with inrush current, in  
addition to the normal load and ripple considerations.  
Starting up into a shorted load looks the same as a retry into  
that same shorted load. In both cases, OCP is always  
enabled during soft-start; once it trips, it will go into retry  
(hiccup) mode. The retry cycle will always have two dummy  
time-outs, plus whatever fraction of the real soft-start time  
passes before the detection and shutoff; at that point, the  
logic immediately starts a new two dummy cycle time-out.

The first consideration for high V is the maximum BOOT

is either 5V (±10%) or  
CC

voltage of 36V. The V (as seen on PHASE) plus V

range between 5.5V and 6.5V is NOT

The second consideration for high V is the maximum

through it to voltages above 6.5V are acceptable.  
(BOOT - V ) voltage; this must be less than 24V. Since  
CC  
BOOT = V + V  
IN CC  
must be <24V. So based on typical circuits, a 20V maximum  
+ ringing, that reduces to (V + ringing)  
IN  
There is an internal 5V regulator for bias; it turns on between  
5.5 and 6.5V; some of the delay after POR is there to allow a  
typical power supply to ramp up past 6.5V before the soft-  
start ramps begins. This prevents a disturbance on the  
output, due to the internal regulator turning on or off. If the  
transition is slow (not a step change), the disturbance should  
be minimal. So while the recommendation is to not have the  
output enabled during the transition through this region, it  
may be acceptable. The user should monitor the output for  
their application, to see if there is any problem.  
V
is a good starting assumption; the user should verify the  
IN  
ringing in their particular application.  
Another consideration for high V is duty cycle. Very low  
IN  
duty cycles (such as 20V in to 1.0V out, for 5% duty cycle)  
require component selection compatible with that choice  
(such as low r  
lower MOSFET, and a good LC output  
DS(ON)  
filter). At the other extreme (for example, 20V in to 12V out),  
the upper MOSFET needs to be low r . In addition, if  
DS(ON)  
the duty cycle gets too high, it can affect the overcurrent  
sample time. In all cases, the input and output capacitors  
and both MOSFETs must be rated for the voltages present.  
The V to the upper MOSFET can share the same supply  
IN  
as V , but can also run off a separate supply or other  
CC  
sources, such as outputs of other regulators. If V  
CC  
powers  
up first, and the V is not present by the time the  
IN  
initialization is done, then the soft-start will not be able to  
ramp the output, and the output will later follow part of the  
V
ramp when it is applied. If this is not desired, then

DS(ON)  
a circuit that detects a long UGATE on-time (nominal 100µs),  
and forces the LGATE to go high for one clock cycle, which  
will allow the boot capacitor some time to recharge.  
Separately, the OCP circuit has an LGATE pulse stretcher  
(to be sure the sample time is long enough), which can also  
help refresh the boot. But if OCP is disabled (no current  
sense resistor), the regular boot refresh circuit will still be  
active.

Layout Considerations  
As in any high frequency switching converter, layout is very  
important. Switching current from one power device to another  
can generate voltage transients across the impedances of the  
interconnecting bond wires and circuit traces. These  
interconnecting impedances should be minimized by using  
wide, short printed circuit traces. The critical components  
should be located as close together as possible, using ground  
plane construction or single point grounding.

Increasing the value of inductance reduces the ripple current  
MOSFET Selection/Considerations  
and voltage. However, the large inductance values reduce  
the converter’s response time to a load transient.  
The ISL8105 requires 2 N-Channel power MOSFETs. These  
should be selected based upon r  
, gate supply  
DS(ON)  
requirements, and thermal management requirements.  
One of the parameters limiting the converter’s response to  
a load transient is the time required to change the inductor  
current. Given a sufficiently fast control loop design, the  
ISL8105 will provide either 0% or 100% duty cycle in  
response to a load transient. The response time is the time  
required to slew the inductor current from an initial current  
value to the transient current level. During this interval the  
difference between the inductor current and the transient  
current level must be supplied by the output capacitor.  
Minimizing the response time can minimize the output  
capacitance required.  
In high-current applications, the MOSFET power dissipation,  
package selection and heatsink are the dominant design  
factors. The power dissipation includes two loss components;  
conduction loss and switching loss. The conduction losses are  
the largest component of power dissipation for both the upper  
and the lower MOSFETs. These losses are distributed between  
the two MOSFETs according to duty factor. The switching  
losses seen when sourcing current will be different from the  
switching losses seen when sinking current. When sourcing  
current, the upper MOSFET realizes most of the switching  
losses. The lower switch realizes most of the switching  
losses when the converter is sinking current (see the  
equations below). These equations assume linear voltage-  
current transitions and do not adequately model power loss  
due the reverse-recovery of the upper and lower MOSFET’s  
body diode. The gate-charge losses are dissipated by the  
ISL8105 and don't heat the MOSFETs. However, large gate-  
The response time to a transient is different for the  
application of load and the removal of load. The following

The important parameters for the bulk input capacitor are the  
voltage rating and the RMS current rating. For reliable  
operation, select the bulk capacitor with voltage and current  
ratings above the maximum input voltage and largest RMS  
current required by the circuit. The capacitor voltage rating  
should be at least 1.25 times greater than the maximum  
input voltage and a voltage rating of 1.5 times is a  
conservative guideline. The RMS current rating requirement  
for the input capacitor of a buck regulator is approximately  
1/2 the DC load current.

When operating with a 12V power supply for V  
(or down  
CC  
to a minimum supply voltage of 6.5V), a wide variety of N-  
MOSFETs can be used. Check the absolute maximum V  
GS  
rating for both MOSFETs; it needs to be above the highest  
voltage allowed in the system; that usually means a  
V

rating (which typically correlates with a 30V V

maximum rating). Low threshold transistors (around 1V or  
below) are not recommended, for the reasons explained in  
the next paragraph.  
For a through hole design, several electrolytic capacitors may  
be needed. For surface mount designs, solid tantalum  
capacitors can also be used, but caution must be exercised  
with regard to the capacitor surge current rating. These  
capacitors must be capable of handling the surge current at  
power-up. Some capacitor series available from reputable  
manufacturers are surge current tested.  
For 5V only operation, given the reduced available gate bias  
voltage (5V), logic-level transistors should be used for both  
N-MOSFETs. Look for r  
ratings at 4.5V. Caution  
DS(ON)  
should be exercised with devices exhibiting very low  
characteristics. The shoot-through protection

capacitances that would inhibit the gate of the MOSFET from
