+5V or +12V Single-Phase Synchronous  
Buck Converter PWM Controller with  
Integrated MOSFET Gate Drivers  
Features  
• Operates from +5V or +12V Bias Supply Voltage  
- 1.0V to 12V Input Voltage Range (up to 20V possible  
with restrictions; see Input Voltage Considerations)  
The ISL8105 is a simple single-phase PWM controller for a  
synchronous buck converter. It operates from +5V or +12V bias  
supply voltage. With integrated linear regulator, boot diode, and  
N-channel MOSFET gate drivers, the ISL8105 reduces  
external component count and board space requirements.  
These make the IC suitable for a wide range of applications.  
- 0.6V to V Output Voltage Range  
IN  
• 0.6V Internal Reference Voltage  
- ±1.0% Tolerance Over the Commercial Temperature  
Range (0°C to +70°C)  
- ±1.5% Tolerance Over the Industrial Temperature  
Range (-40°C to +85°C).  
Utilizing voltage-mode control, the output voltage can be  
precisely regulated to as low as 0.6V. The 0.6V internal  
reference features a maximum tolerance of ±1.0% over the  
commercial temperature range, and ±1.5% over the  
industrial temperature range. Two fixed oscillator frequency  
versions are available; 300kHz (ISL8105 for high efficiency  
applications) and 600kHz (ISL8105A for fast transient  
applications).  
• Integrated MOSFET Gate Drivers that Operate from V  
(+5V to +12V)  
Bias  
- Bootstrapped High-side Gate Driver with Integrated  
Boot Diode  
- Drives N-Channel MOSFETs  
• Simple Voltage-Mode PWM Control  
• Fast Transient Response  
The ISL8105 features the capability of safe start-up with  
pre-biased load. It also provides overcurrent protection by  
monitoring the on resistance of the bottom-side MOSFET to  
inhibit PWM operation appropriately. During start-up interval,  
the resistor connected to BGATE/BSOC pin is employed to  
program overcurrent protection condition. This approach  
simplifies the implementation and does not deteriorate  
converter efficiency.  
- High-Bandwidth Error Amplifier  
- Full 0% to 100% Duty Cycle  
• Fixed Operating Frequency  
- 300kHz for ISL8105  
- 600kHz for ISL8105A  
• Fixed Internal Soft-Start with Pre-biased Load Capability  
• Lossless, Programmable Overcurrent Protection  
- Uses Bottom-side MOSFET’s r

oscillator to stop, the BGATE and TGATE outputs to be held  
low, and the soft-start circuitry to re-arm. The external  
pull-down device will initially need to overcome maximum of  
5mA of COMP/EN 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.

soft-start times. The COMP/EN will continue to ramp to ~1V.  
Functional Description  
Initialization (POR and OCP Sampling)  
From T1, there is a nominal 6.8ms delay, which allows the  
VBIAS pin to exceed 6.5V (if rising up towards 12V), so that  
the internal bias regulator can turn on cleanly. At the same  
time, the BGATE/BSOC pin is initialized by disabling the  
BGATE driver and drawing BSOC (nominal 21.5µA) through  
Figure 1 shows a start-up waveform of ISL8105. The  
Power-On-Reset (POR) function continually monitors the  
bias voltage at the VBIAS pin. Once the rising POR  
threshold is exceeded 4V (V  
nominal), the POR function

longer time occurs with the higher overcurrent setting). The

After an initialization period (T3 to T4), the error amplifier  
(COMP/EN 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 LX 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.

resistive load connected to the output will help pull down the  
Overcurrent Protection (OCP)  
voltage (at the RC rate of the R of the load and the C of the  
output capacitance).  
The overcurrent function protects the converter from a  
shorted output by using the bottom-side MOSFET's  
on-resistance, r  
, to monitor the current. A resistor  
DS(ON)  
(R  
) programs the overcurrent trip level (see “Typical  
BSOC  
Application” on page 2). 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 softstart 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.

until a new sample is taken after coming out of a shut-down.

BGATE signal). This is done to allow the gate transition  
noise and ringing on the LX pin to settle out before  
monitoring. The monitoring ends when the internal PWM  
edge (and thus BGATE) goes low. The OCP can be detected  
anywhere within the above window.  
When V turns on, the output would follow the ramp of the

changing the sequencing of the power supplies, or sharing  
the same supply, or adding sequencing logic to the

If the IC is disabled after soft-start (by pulling COMP/EN pin

then the third pulse will be stretched and/or inserted to the

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

MOSFETs is typically in the 20mV to 120mV ballpark (500Ω  
to 3000Ω). If the voltage drop across R is set too low,  
BSOC  
that can cause almost continuous OCP tripping and retry. It  
would also be very sensitive to system noise and inrush  
current spikes, so it should be avoided. The maximum  
BGATE > 425ns  
usable setting is around 0.2V across R  
(0.4V across  
BSOC  
the MOSFET); values above that might disable the  
protection. Any voltage drop across R that is greater  
BSOC  
than 0.3V (0.6V MOSFET trip point) will disable the OCP.  
The preferred method to disable OCP is simply to remove  
the resistor, which will be detected as no OCP.  
BGATE = 425ns  
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 bottom-side gate drive  
voltages, the r  
of the MOSFETs will be higher during  
DS(ON)  
power-up, effectively lowering the OCP trip. In addition, the  
ripple current will likely be different at lower input voltage.  
BGATE < 425ns  
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.

typical power supply to ramp up past 6.5V before the  
softstart 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.  
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.  
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.

There is an internal 5V regulator for bias; it turns on between

maximum V is a good starting assumption; the user should  
verify the ringing in their particular application.

Another consideration for high V is duty cycle. Very low  
duty cycles (such as 20V in to 1.0V out, for 5% duty cycle)  
require component selection compatible with that choice  
Application Guidelines  
IN  
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.  
(such as low r  
bottom-side MOSFET, and a good LC  
DS(ON)  
output filter). At the other extreme (for example, 20V in to  
12V out), the top-side MOSFET needs to be low r . In  
DS(ON)  
addition, if 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.  
Switching Frequency  
The switching frequency is either a fixed 300 or 600kHz,  
depending on the part number chosen (ISL8105 is 300kHz;  
ISL8105A is 600kHz; the generic name “ISL8105” may apply  
to either in the rest of this document, except when choosing  
the frequency). However, all of the other timing mentioned  
(POR delay, OCP sample, soft-start, etc.) is independent of  
the clock frequency (unless otherwise noted).

DS(ON)  
has a circuit that detects a long TGATE on-time (nominal  
100µs), and forces the BGATE to go higher for one clock  
cycle, which will allow the boot capacitor some time to  
recharge. Separately, the OCP circuit has a BGATE 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.

FIGURE 7. PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD POWER AND  
GROUND PLANES OR ISLANDS  
Figure 7 shows the critical power components of the  
converter. To minimize the voltage overshoot/undershoot,  
the interconnecting wires indicated by heavy lines should be

components shown in Figure 8 should be located as close  
together as possible. Please note that the capacitors C  
and C each represent numerous physical capacitors.  
O
Locate the ISL8105 within three inches of the MOSFETs, Q1  
and Q2. The circuit traces for the MOSFETs’ gate and  
source connections from the ISL8105 must be sized to  
handle up to 1A peak current.  
Current Sinking  
The ISL8105 incorporates a MOSFET shoot-through  
protection method which allows a converter to sink current  
as well as source current. Care should be exercised when  
designing a converter with the ISL8105 when it is known that  
the converter may sink current.  
IN  
When the converter is sinking current, it is behaving as a  
boost converter that is regulating its input voltage. This  
means that the converter is boosting current into the V rail.  
IN  
Proper grounding of the IC is important for correct operation  
in noisy environments. The GND pin should be connected to  
a large copper fill under the IC which is subsequently  
connected to board ground at a quiet location on the board,  
typically found at an input or output bulk (electrolytic)  
capacitor.  
If there is nowhere for this current to go, such as to other  
distributed loads on the V rail, through a voltage limiting  
IN  
protection device, or other methods, the capacitance on the  
V
bus will absorb the current. This situation will allow  
IN  
voltage level of the V rail (also LX) to increase. If the  
IN  
voltage level of the LX is increased to a level that exceeds  
the maximum voltage rating of the ISL8105, then the IC will  
experience an irreversible failure and the converter will no  
longer be operational. Ensuring that there is a path for the  
current to follow other than the capacitance on the rail will  
prevent this failure mode.

Increasing the value of inductance reduces the ripple current  
and voltage. However, the large inductance values reduce  
the converter’s response time to a load transient.  
Component Selection Guidelines  
Output Capacitor Selection  
An output capacitor is required to filter the output and supply  
the load transient current. The filtering requirements are a  
function of the switching frequency and the ripple current.  
The load transient requirements are a function of the slew  
rate (di/dt) and the magnitude of the transient load current.  
These requirements are generally met with a mix of  
capacitors and careful layout.  
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.  
Modern microprocessors produce transient load rates above  
1A/ns. High frequency capacitors initially supply the transient  
and slow the current load rate seen by the bulk capacitors.  
The bulk filter capacitor values are generally determined by  
the ESR (effective series resistance) and voltage rating  
requirements rather than actual capacitance requirements.  
The response time to a transient is different for the  
application of load and the removal of load. Equation 12  
gives the approximate response time interval for application  
and removal of a transient load:  
High frequency decoupling capacitors should be placed as  
close to the power pins of the load as physically possible. Be  
careful not to add inductance in the circuit board wiring that  
could cancel the usefulness of these low inductance  
components. Consult with the manufacturer of the load on  
specific decoupling requirements. For example, Intel  
recommends that the high frequency decoupling for the  
Pentium Pro be composed of at least forty (40) 1.0mF  
ceramic capacitors in the 1206 surface-mount package.  
Follow on specifications have only increased the number  
and quality of required ceramic decoupling capacitors.

With a lower input source such as 1.8V or 3.3V, the worst  
case response time can be either at the application or  
removal of load and dependent upon the output voltage  
setting. Be sure to check both of these equations at the  
minimum and maximum output levels for the worst case  
response time.  
Use only specialized low-ESR capacitors intended for  
switching-regulator applications for the bulk capacitors. The  
bulk capacitor’s ESR will determine the output ripple voltage  
and the initial voltage drop after a high slew-rate transient. An  
aluminum electrolytic capacitor's ESR value is related to the  
case size with lower ESR available in larger case sizes.  
However, the equivalent series inductance (ESL) of these  
capacitors increases with case size and can reduce the  
usefulness of the capacitor to high slew-rate transient loading.  
Unfortunately, ESL is not a specified parameter. Work with  
your capacitor supplier and measure the capacitor’s  
Input Capacitor Selection  
Use a mix of input bypass capacitors to control the voltage  
overshoot across the MOSFETs. Use small ceramic  
capacitors for high frequency decoupling and bulk capacitors  
to supply the current needed each time Q1 turns on. Place the  
small ceramic capacitors physically close to the MOSFETs  
and between the drain of Q1 and the source of Q2.  
impedance with frequency to select a suitable component. In  
most cases, multiple electrolytic capacitors of small case size  
perform better than a single large case capacitor.  
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  
Output Inductor Selection  
The output inductor is selected to meet the output voltage  
ripple requirements and minimize the converter’s response  
time to the load transient. The inductor value determines the  
converter’s ripple current and the ripple voltage is a function  
of the ripple current. The ripple voltage and current are  
approximated by Equation 11:

For a through-hole design, several electrolytic capacitors

designs, solid tantalum capacitors can be used, but caution  
must be exercised with regard to the capacitor surge current

present aboard the ISL8105 may be circumvented by these  
MOSFETs if they have large parasitic impedances and/or  
capacitances that would inhibit the gate of the MOSFET from  
being discharged below its threshold level before the  
complementary MOSFET is turned on. Also avoid MOSFETs  
with excessive switching times; the circuitry is expecting  
transitions to occur in under 50ns or so.  
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 top and the bottom-side 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  
top-side MOSFET realizes most of the switching losses. The  
bottom-side switch realizes most of the switching losses  
when the converter is sinking current (see Equation 14).  
These equations assume linear voltage current transitions
