High-Performance Dual-Output Buck  
Controller for Notebook Applications  
Features  
3
• High performance R technology  
The ISL6228 IC is a dual channel synchronous-buck PWM  
controller featuring Intersil's Robust Ripple Regulator (R )  
• Fast transient response  
3
• ±1% regulation accuracy: -40°C to +100°C  
• Individual power stage input rail for each channel  
• Wide input voltage range: +3.3V to +25V  
• Output voltage range: +0.6V to +5V  
technology that delivers truly superior dynamic response to  
input voltage and output load transients. Integrated  
MOSFET drivers and bootstrap diodes result in fewer  
components and smaller implementation area.  
3
Intersil’s R technology combines the best features of fixed-  
• Diode emulation mode for increased light load efficiency  
• Programmable PWM frequency: 200kHz to 600kHz  
• Pre-biased output start-up capability  
frequency and hysteretic PWMs while eliminating many of  
3
their shortcomings. R technology employs an innovative  
modulator that synthesizes an AC ripple voltage signal V ,  
R
analogous to the output inductor ripple current. The AC signal  
• Integrated MOSFET drivers and bootstrap diode  
• Internal digital soft-start  
V
enters a window comparator where the lower threshold is  
R
the error amplifier output V  
, and the upper threshold is a  
COMP  
programmable voltage reference V resulting in generation  
• Power good monitor  
W,  
of the PWM signal. The voltage reference V sets the  
W
• Fault protection  
steady-state PWM frequency. Both edges of the PWM can be  
modulated in response to input voltage transients and output  
load transients, much faster than conventional fixed-  
frequency PWM controllers. Unlike a conventional hysteretic  
converter, each channel of the ISL6228 has an error amplifier  
that provides ±1% voltage regulation at the FB pin.  
- Undervoltage protection  
- Soft crowbar overvoltage protection  
- Inductor DCR overcurrent protection  
- Over-temperature protection  
- Fault identification by PGOOD pull-down resistance  
• Pb-free (RoHS compliant)  
The ISL6228 has a 1.5ms digital soft-start and can be  
started into a pre-biased output voltage. A resistor divider is  
used to program the output voltage setpoint. The ISL6228  
operates in continuous-conduction-mode (CCM) in heavy  
load, and in diode-emulation-mode (DEM) in light load to  
improve light-load efficiency. In CCM, the controller always  
operates as a synchronous rectifier. In DEM, the low-side  
MOSFET is permitted to stay off, blocking negative current  
flow into the low-side MOSFET from the output inductor.  
Applications  
• General purpose switching buck regulators  
• PCI express graphical processing unit  
• Auxiliary power rail  
• VRM  
• Network adaptor

Channel 2. Program the desired PWM frequency with a  
resistor and a capacitor connected across the FSET2 and  
GND pins.  
VIN2 (Pin 2)  
OCSET1 (Pin 10)  
The VIN2 pin measures the input voltage of the Channel 2  
converter. It is a required input to the Channel 2 R PWM  
modulator. Connect the VIN2 pin to the drain of the  
Channel 2 high-side MOSFET.  
The OCSET1 pin measures the Channel 1 inductor current  
and programs the threshold of the OCP overcurrent fault  
protection.

channel is discussed, and the conclusion applies to both  
channels.

Positive-going inductor current flows from either the source  
of the high-side MOSFET, or the drain of the low-side  
MOSFET. Negative-going inductor current flows into the  
drain of the low-side MOSFET. When the low-side MOSFET  
conducts positive inductor current, the phase voltage will be  
negative with respect to the GND and PGND pins.  
Conversely, when the low-side MOSFET conducts negative  
inductor current, the phase voltage will be positive with  
respect to the GND and PGND pins. The ISL6228 monitors  
the phase voltage, when the low-side MOSFET is  
conducting inductor current, to determine the direction of the  
inductor current.  
Figure 5 shows the overcurrent-set circuit. The inductor  
consists of inductance L and the DC resistance DCR. The

When the output load current is greater than or equal to ½

low-side MOSFET to operate as a synchronous rectifier.

If the output of the converter has to support a load with high  
pulsating current, several capacitors will need to be paralleled  
to reduce the total ESR until the required V  
is achieved.

The inductance of the capacitor can cause a brief voltage dip

Selection of the Input Capacitor  
The important parameters for the bulk input capacitance are  
the voltage rating and the RMS current rating. For reliable  
operation, select bulk capacitors with voltage and current  
ratings above the maximum input voltage and capable of  
supplying the RMS current required by the switching circuit.  
Their voltage rating should be at least 1.25 times greater  
than the maximum input voltage, while a voltage rating of 1.5  
times is a preferred rating. Figure 7 is a graph of the input  
RMS ripple current, normalized relative to output load current,  
as a function of duty cycle that is adjusted for converter  
efficiency. The ripple current calculation is written as  
Equation 18:  
There are several power MOSFETs readily available that are  
optimized for DC/DC converter applications. The preferred  
high-side MOSFET emphasizes low gate charge so that the  
device spends the least amount of time dissipating power in  
the linear region. Unlike the low-side MOSFET which has the  
drain-source voltage clamped by its body diode during turn  
off, the high-side MOSFET turns off with V - V  
, plus the

emphasizes low r

As an example, suppose the high-side MOSFET has a total  
gate charge Q , of 25nC at V = 5V, and a ΔV of  
200mV. The calculated bootstrap capacitance is 0.125µF; for  
a comfortable margin, select a capacitor that is double the  
calculated capacitance. In this example, 0.22µF will suffice.  
Use an X7R or X5R ceramic capacitor.

The signal going through this trace is both high dv/dt and

Route this trace in parallel with the trace from the PGND pin.  
These two traces should be short, wide, and away from  
other traces. There should be no other weak signal traces in  
proximity with these traces on any layer.  
FIGURE 8. TYPICAL POWER COMPONENT PLACEMENT

The bottom of the ISL6228 TQFN package is the signal  
ground (GND) terminal for analog and logic signals of the IC.  
Connect the GND pad of the ISL6228 to the island of ground  
plane under the top layer using several vias, for a robust  
thermal and electrical conduction path. Connect the input  
capacitors, the output capacitors, and the source of the  
lower MOSFETs to the power ground plane.  
BOOT (Pins 14 and 21), UGATE (Pins 13 and 22), and  
PHASE (Pins 12 and 23)  
The signals going through these traces are both high dv/dt  
and high di/dt, with high peak charging and discharging  
current. Route the UGATE and PHASE pins in parallel with  
short and wide traces. There should be no other weak signal  
traces in proximity with these traces on any layer.  
PGND (Pins 17 and 18)  
This is the return path for the pull-down of the LGATE  
low-side MOSFET gate driver. Ideally, PGND should be  
connected to the source of the low-side MOSFET with a  
low-resistance, low-inductance path.  
Copper Size for the Phase Node  
The parasitic capacitance and parasitic inductance of the  
phase node should be kept very low to minimize ringing. It is  
best to limit the size of the PHASE node copper in strict  
accordance with the current and thermal management of the  
application. An MLCC should be connected directly across  
the drain of the upper MOSFET and the source of the lower  
MOSFET to suppress the turn-off voltage spike.  
VIN (Pins 2 and 5)  
The VIN pin should be connected close to the drain of the  
high-side MOSFET, using a low resistance and low  
inductance path.  
VCC (Pins 3 and 4)  
For best performance, place the decoupling capacitor very  
close to the VCC and GND pins.  
PVCC (Pins 15 and 20)  
For best performance, place the decoupling capacitor very  
close to the PVCC and respective PGND pins, preferably on  
the same side of the PCB as the ISL6228 IC.
