300kHz Dual, 180° Out-of-Phase, Step-  
Down PWM and Single Linear Controller  
Features  
• Wide Input Supply Voltage Range  
- Variable 5.6V to 24V  
The ISL6443 is a high-performance, triple-output controller  
optimized for converting wall adapter, battery or network  
intermediate bus DC input supplies into the system supply  
voltages required for a wide variety of applications. Each  
output is adjustable down to 0.8V. The two PWMs are  
synchronized 180° out of phase reducing the RMS input  
current and ripple voltage.  
- Fixed 4.5V to 5.6V  
• Three Independently Programmable Output Voltages  
• Switching Frequency . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .300kHz  
• Out of Phase PWM Controller Operation  
- Reduces Required Input Capacitance and Power  
Supply Induced Loads  
The ISL6443 incorporates several protection features. An  
adjustable overcurrent protection circuit monitors the output  
current by sensing the voltage drop across the lower  
MOSFET. Hiccup mode overcurrent operation protects the  
DC/DC components from damage during output  
• No External Current Sense Resistor  
- Uses Lower MOSFET’s r  
DS(ON)  
• Bidirectional Frequency Synchronization for  
Synchronizing Multiple ISL6443s  
overload/short circuit conditions. Each PWM has an  
independent logic-level shutdown input (SD1 and SD2).  
• Programmable Soft-Start  
A single PGOOD signal is issued when soft-start is complete  
on both PWM controllers and their outputs are within 10% of  
the set point and the linear regulator output is greater than  
75% of its setpoint. Thermal shutdown circuitry turns off the  
device if the junction temperature exceeds +150°C.  
• Extensive circuit protection functions  
- PGOOD  
- UVLO  
- Overcurrent  
- Over-temperature  
- Independent Shutdown for Both PWMs  
Ordering Information  
• Excellent Dynamic Response

NOTES:  
2. Specifications at -40°C and 85°C are guaranteed by design, not production tested.  
3. In normal operation, where the device is supplied with voltage on the V pin, the VCC_5V pin provides a 5V output capable of 60mA (min).  
IN  
When the VCC_5V pin is used as a 5V supply input, the internal LDO regulator is disabled and the V input pin must be connected to the  
IN  
VCC_5V pin. (Refer to the Pin Descriptions section for more details.)  
4. This is the total shutdown current with V = VCC_5V = PVCC = 5V.  
IN  
5. Operating current is the supply current consumed when the device is active but not switching. It does not include gate drive current.  
6. The peak-to-peak sawtooth amplitude is production tested at 12V only; at 5V this parameter is guaranteed by design.  
7. Guaranteed by design; not production tested.  
8. Not production tested; guaranteed by characterization only.  
9. Guaranteed by design. The full scale current of 32µA is recommended for optimum current sample and hold operation. See the Feedback Loop  
Compensation Section below.

Pin Descriptions  
BOOT2, BOOT1 - These pins power the upper MOSFET  
drivers of each PWM converter. Connect this pin to the  
junction of the bootstrap capacitor and the cathode of the  
bootstrap diode. The anode of the bootstrap diode is  
connected to the VCC_5V pin.  
REQUIRED outputs are within regulation AND soft-start  
(SS1/SS2) is complete.  
The last case is when both of the SD1 and SD2 are LOW.  
PGOOD will be low.  
SGND - (Pin 20 on the TSSOP; Pin 17 on the QFN)  
This is the small-signal ground, common to all 3 controllers,  
and must be routed separately from the high current ground  
(PGND). All voltage levels are measured with respect to this  
pin. Connect the additional SGND pins to this pin. If using a  
5V supply, connect this pin to VCC_5V. A small ceramic  
capacitor should be connected right next to this pin for noise  
decoupling.  
UGATE2, UGATE1 - These pins provide the gate drive for  
the upper MOSFETs.  
PHASE2, PHASE1 - These pins are connected to the junction  
of the upper MOSFETs source, output filter inductor and lower  
MOSFETs drain.  
LGATE2, LGATE1 - These pins provide the gate drive for  
the lower MOSFETs.  
VIN - Use this pin to power the device with an external  
supply voltage with a range of 5.6V to 24V. For 5V ±10%  
operation, connect this pin to VCC_5V.  
PGND - This pin provides the power ground connection for  
the lower gate drivers for both PWM1 and PWM2. This pin  
should be connected to the sources of the lower MOSFETs  
and the (-) terminals of the external input capacitors.  
VCC_5V - This pin is the output of the internal 5V linear  
regulator. This output supplies the bias for the IC, the low  
side gate drivers, and the external boot circuitry for the high  
side gate drivers. The IC may be powered directly from a  
single 5V (±10%) supply at this pin. When used as a 5V  
FB3, FB2, FB1 - These pins are connected to the feedback  
resistor divider and provide the voltage feedback signals for  
the respective controller. They set the output voltage of the

The ISL6443 integrates control circuits for two synchronous  
buck converters and one linear controller. The two  
synchronous bucks operate out of phase to substantially  
reduce the input ripple and thus reduce the input filter  
requirements. The chip has four control lines (SS1, SD1,  
SS2, and SD2), which provide independent control for each  
of the synchronous buck outputs.

The buck PWM controllers employ a free-running frequency  
of 300kHz. The current mode control scheme with an input  
voltage feed-forward ramp input to the modulator provides  
excellent rejection of input voltage variations and provides  
simplified loop compensations.  
The linear controller can drive either a PNP or PFET to provide  
ultra low-dropout regulation with programmable voltages.

Internal 5V Linear Regulator (VCC_5V)  
FIGURE 13. SOFT-START OPERATION  
All ISL6443 functions are internally powered from an on-  
chip, low dropout 5V regulator. The maximum regulator input  
voltage is 24V. Bypass the regulator’s output (VCC_5V) with  
a 4.7µF capacitor to ground. The dropout voltage for this  
LDO is typically 600mV, so when VCC_5V is greater than  
5.6V, VCC_5V is typically 5V. The ISL6443 also employs an  
undervoltage lockout circuit that disables both regulators  
when VCC_5V falls below 4.4V.  
The soft-start capacitors can be chosen to provide startup  
tracking for the two PWM outputs. This can be achieved by  
choosing the soft-start capacitors such that the soft-start  
capacitor ration equals the respective PWM output voltage  
ratio. For example, if I use PWM1 = 1.2V and PWM2 = 3.3V  
then the soft-start capacitor ratio should be, C =  
/C  
SS1 SS1  
1.2/3.3 = 0.364. Figure 14 shows that soft-start waveform  
with C = 0.01µF and C = 0.027µF.  
The internal LDO can source over 60mA to supply the IC,  
power the low side gate drivers, charge the external boot  
capacitor and supply small external loads. When driving  
large FETs especially at 300kHz frequency, little or no  
regulator current may be available for external loads.

Soft-Start Operation  
FIGURE 14. PWM1 AND PWM2 OUTPUT TRACKING DURING  
STARTUP  
When soft-start is initiated, the voltage on the SS pin of the  
enabled PWM channels starts to ramp gradually, due to the  
5µA current sourced into the external capacitor. The output  
voltage follows the soft-start voltage.  
Output Voltage Programming  
A resistive divider from the output to ground sets the output  
voltage of either PWM channel. The center point of the  
divider shall be connected to FBx pin. The output voltage  
value is determined by the following equation.  
When the SS pin voltage reaches 0.8V, the output voltage of  
the enabled PWM channel reaches the regulation point, and  
the soft-start pin voltage continues to rise. At this point the  
PGOOD and fault circuitry is enabled. This completes the  
soft-start sequence. Any further rise of SS pin voltage does  
not affect the output voltage. By varying the values of the  
soft-start capacitors, it is possible to provide sequencing of the

Shoot-through control logic provides a 20ns deadtime to ensure  
Out-of-Phase Operation  
that both the upper and lower MOSFETs will not turn on  
simultaneously and cause a shoot-through condition.  
The two PWM controllers in the ISL6443 operate 180o out-of-  
phase to reduce input ripple current. This reduces the input  
capacitor ripple current requirements, reduces power supply-  
induced noise, and improves EMI. This effectively helps to  
lower component cost, save board space and reduce EMI.  
Gate Drivers  
The low-side gate driver is supplied from VCC_5V and  
provides a peak sink/source current of 400mA. The high-side  
gate driver is also capable of 400mA current. Gate-drive  
voltages for the upper N-Channel MOSFET are generated by  
the flying capacitor boot circuit. A boot capacitor connected  
from the BOOT pin to the PHASE node provides power to the  
high side MOSFET driver. To limit the peak current in the IC,  
an external resistor may be placed between the UGATE pin  
and the gate of the external MOSFET. This small series  
resistor also damps any oscillations caused by the resonant  
tank of the parasitic inductances in the traces of the board an  
the FET’s input capacitance.  
Dual PWMs typically operate in-phase and turn on both upper  
FETs at the same time. The input capacitor must then support  
the instantaneous current requirements of both controllers  
simultaneously, resulting in increased ripple voltage and  
current. The higher RMS ripple current lowers the efficiency  
due to the power loss associated with the ESR of the input  
capacitor. This typically requires more low-ESR capacitors in  
parallel to minimize the input voltage ripple and ESR-related  
losses, or to meet the required ripple current rating.  
With dual synchronized out-of-phase operation, the high-side  
MOSFETs of the ISL6443 turn on 180o out-of-phase. The  
instantaneous input current peaks of both regulators no longer  
overlap, resulting in reduced RMS ripple current and input  
voltage ripple. This reduces the required input capacitor ripple  
current rating, allowing fewer or less expensive capacitors, and  
reducing the shielding requirements for EMI. The typical  
operating curves show the synchronized 180° out-of-phase  
operation.

At start-up the low-side MOSFET turns on and forces

MOSFET is turned on by closing an internal switch between  
BOOT and UGATE. This provides the necessary gate-to-  
source voltage to turn on the upper MOSFET, an action that  
boosts the 5V gate drive signal above VIN. The current  
required to drive the upper MOSFET is drawn from the

The gate control logic translates generated PWM signals into

that helps optimize the ICs performance over a wide range of  
operational conditions. As MOSFET switching times can vary  
dramatically from type to type and with input voltage, the gate  
control logic provides adaptive dead time by monitoring real  
gate waveforms of both the upper and the lower MOSFETs.

to the ISENx pin. If an overcurrent is detected for 2  
consecutive clock cycles then the IC enters a hiccup mode  
by turning off the gate drivers and entering into soft-start.  
The IC will cycle 2 times through soft-start before trying to  
restart. The IC will continue to cycle through soft-start until  
the overcurrent condition is removed. Hiccup mode is active  
during soft-start so care must be taken to ensure that the  
peak inductor current does not exceed the overcurrent  
threshold during soft-start.  
First, the ramp signal applied to the PWM comparator is  
proportional to the input voltage provided via the VIN pin.  
This keeps the modulator gain constant with variation in the  
input voltage. Second, the load current proportional signal is  
derived from the voltage drop across the lower MOSFET  
during the PWM time interval and is subtracted from the  
amplified error signal on the comparator input. This creates  
an internal current control loop. The resistor connected to  
the ISEN pin sets the gain in the current feedback loop. The  
following expression estimates the required value of the  
current sense resistor depending on the maximum operating  
Because of the nature of this current sensing technique, and

Due to the current loop feedback, the modulator has a single

by the load.  
The SYNC pin may be used to synchronize two or more  
controllers. When the SYNC pins of two controllers are  
connected together, one controller becomes the master and  
the other controller synchronizes to the master. A pull-down  
resistor is required and must be sized to provide a low  
enough time constant to pass the SYNC pulse. Connect this  
pin to VCC_5V if not used. Figure 16 shows the SYNC pin  
waveform operating at 16 times the switching frequency.

input, the controller sinks 21mA of current. An external PNP  
transistor or PFET pass element can be used. The dominant  
pole for the loop can be placed at the base of the PNP (or  
gate of the PFET), as a capacitor from emitter to base  
(source to gate of a PFET). Better load transient response is  
achieved however, if the dominant pole is placed at the  
output, with a capacitor to ground at the output of the  
regulator.

output. Keep the base drive traces away from the step-down  
converter, and as short as possible, to minimize noise  
coupling. A resistor in series with the gate drivers reduces  
the switching noise generated by PWM. Additionally, a  
bypass capacitor may be placed across the base-to-emitter  
resistor. This bypass capacitor, in addition to the transistor’s  
input capacitor, could bring in second pole that will de-  
stabilize the linear regulator. Therefore, the stability  
requirements determine the maximum base-to-emitter  
capacitance.

7. Place the gate drive components BOOT diode and BOOT

8. The output capacitors should be placed as close to the

9. Use copper filled polygons or wide but short trace to  
connect junction of upper FET. Lower FET and output  
inductor. Also keep the PHASE node connection to the IC  
short. Do not unnecessary oversize the copper islands for  
PHASE node. Since the phase nodes are subjected to  
very high dv/dt voltages, the stray capacitor formed  
between these islands and the surrounding circuitry will  
tend to couple switching noise.  
Layout Guidelines  
Careful attention to layout requirements is necessary for  
successful implementation of a ISL6443 based DC/DC  
converter. The ISL6443 switches at a very high frequency  
and therefore the switching times are very short. At these  
switching frequencies, even the shortest trace has  
significant impedance. Also the peak gate drive current rises  
significantly in extremely short time. Transition speed of the  
current from one device to another causes voltage spikes  
across the interconnecting impedances and parasitic circuit  
elements. These voltage spikes can degrade efficiency,  
generate EMI, increase device overvoltage stress and  
ringing. Careful component selection and proper PC board  
layout minimizes the magnitude of these voltage spikes.  
10. Route all high speed switching nodes away from the  
control circuitry.  
11. Create separate small analog ground plane near the IC.  
Connect SGND pin to this plane. All small signal  
grounding paths including feedback resistors, current  
limit setting resistors, SYNC/SDx pull down resistors  
should be connected to this SGND plane.  
There are two sets of critical components in a DC/DC  
converter using the ISL6443. The switching power  
components and the small signal components. The  
switching power components are the most critical from a  
layout point of view because they switch a large amount of  
energy so they tend to generate a large amount of noise.  
The critical small signal components are those connected to  
sensitive nodes or those supplying critical bias currents. A  
multi-layer printed circuit board is recommended.  
12. Ensure the feedback connection to output capacitor is  
short and direct.  
Component Selection Guidelines  
MOSFET Considerations  
The logic level MOSFETs are chosen for optimum efficiency  
given the potentially wide input voltage range and output  
power requirements. Two N-Channel MOSFETs are used in  
each of the synchronous-rectified buck converters for the  
PWM1 and PWM2 outputs. These MOSFETs should be

1. The Input capacitors, Upper FET, Lower FET, Inductor  
and Output capacitor should be placed first. Isolate these  
power components on the topside of the board with their  
ground terminals adjacent to one another. Place the input  
high frequency decoupling ceramic capacitor very close  
to the MOSFETs.  
The power dissipation includes two loss components;  
conduction loss and switching loss. These losses are  
distributed between the upper and lower MOSFETs  
according to duty cycle (see the following equations). The  
conduction losses are the main component of power  
dissipation for the lower MOSFETs. Only the upper MOSFET  
has significant switching losses, since the lower device turns  
on and off into near zero voltage. The equations assume  
linear voltage-current transitions and do not model power  
loss due to the reverse-recovery of the lower MOSFET’s  
body diode.  
2. Use separate ground planes for power ground and small  
signal ground. Connect the SGND and PGND together  
close of the IC. Do not connect them together anywhere  
else.  
3. The loop formed by Input capacitor, the top FET and the  
bottom FET must be kept as small as possible.

Output Capacitor Selection  
The stability requirement on the selection of the output  
The output capacitors for each output have unique  
capacitor is that the ‘ESR zero’, f , be between 1.2kHz and  
requirements. In general, the output capacitors should be  
selected to meet the dynamic regulation requirements  
including ripple voltage and load transients. Selection of  
output capacitors is also dependent on the output inductor,  
so some inductor analysis is required to select the output  
capacitors.

One of the parameters limiting the converter’s response to a  
load transient is the time required for the inductor current to  
slew to it’s new level. The ISL6443 will provide either 0% or  
71% duty cycle in response to a load transient.  
In conclusion, the output capacitors must meet three criteria:  
1. They must have sufficient bulk capacitance to sustain the  
output voltage during a load transient while the output  
inductor current is slewing to the value of the load  
transient,  
The response time is the time interval required to slew the  
inductor current from an initial current value to the load  
current level. During this interval the difference between the  
inductor current and the transient current level must be  
supplied by the output capacitor(s). Minimizing the response  
time can minimize the output capacitance required. Also, if  
the load transient rise time is slower than the inductor  
response time, as in a hard drive or CD drive, it reduces the  
requirement on the output capacitor.  
2. The ESR must be sufficiently low to meet the desired  
output voltage ripple due to the output inductor current,  
and  
3. The ESR zero should be placed, in a rather large range,  
to provide additional phase margin.  
The recommended output capacitor value for the ISL6443 is  
between 150µF to 680µF, to meet stability criteria with  
external compensation. Use of aluminum electrolytic,  
POSCAP, or tantalum type capacitors is recommended. Use  
of low ESR ceramic capacitors is possible but would take  
more rigorous loop analysis to ensure stability.

expression is given in the capacitor selection section and the  
ripple current is approximated by the following equation:  
where, C  
OUT  
is the output capacitor(s) required, L is the  
O
output inductor, I  
is the transient load current step, V  
TRAN  
is the input voltage, V is output voltage, and DV  
IN  
is the  
O
OUT  
drop in output voltage allowed during the load transient.  
High frequency capacitors initially supply the transient  
current and slow the load rate-of-change seen by the bulk  
capacitors. The bulk filter capacitor values are generally  
determined by the ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) and  
voltage rating requirements as well as actual capacitance  
requirements.

For the ISL6443, Inductor values between 6.4µH to 10µH is  
recommended when using the Typical Application  
Schematic. Other values can be used but a thorough stability  
study should be done.  
The output voltage ripple is due to the inductor ripple current  
and the ESR of the output capacitors as defined by:

The important parameters for the bulk input capacitor(s) are  
the voltage rating and the RMS current rating. For reliable  
operation, select bulk input capacitors 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 1.5 times is a conservative  
guideline. The AC RMS Input current varies with the load.  
The total RMS current supplied by the input capacitance is:

FIGURE 20. INPUT RMS CURRENT vs LOAD  
DC is duty cycle of the respective PWM.  
Use a mix of input bypass capacitors to control the voltage  
ripple across the MOSFETs. Use ceramic capacitors for the  
high frequency decoupling and bulk capacitors to supply the  
RMS current. Small ceramic capacitors can be placed very  
close to the upper MOSFET to suppress the voltage induced  
in the parasitic circuit impedances.  
Depending on the specifics of the input power and its  
impedance, most (or all) of this current is supplied by the  
input capacitor(s). Figure 20 shows the advantage of having  
the PWM converters operating out of phase. If the  
converters were operating in phase, the combined RMS  
current would be the algebraic sum, which is a much larger  
value as shown. The combined out-of-phase current is the  
square root of the sum of the square of the individual  
reflected currents and is significantly less than the combined  
in-phase current.  
For board designs that allow through-hole components, the  
Sanyo OS-CON® series offer low ESR and good  
temperature performance. For surface mount designs, solid  
tantalum capacitors can 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. The TPS series available from AVX is  
surge current tested.
