Buck PWM Controller with Internal Compensation and External Reference
Tracking
The ISL95872 is a Single-Phase Synchronous-Buck PWM
Features
controller featuring Intersil’s proprietary R4™ Technology. The
• External Reference Tracking
• Intersil’s R4™ Modulator Technology
R4™ modulator has integrated compensation, fast transient
performance, accurate switching frequency control, and
excellent light-load efficiency. These technology advances,
together with integrated MOSFET drivers and a schottky
bootstrap diode, allow for a high performance regulator that is
highly compact and needs few external components.
Differential remote sensing of the output voltage is an
additional feature. For maximum efficiency, the converter
automatically enters diode-emulation mode (DEM) during
light-load conditions such as system standby.
- Internal Compensation
- Fast, Optimal Transient Response
• Input Voltage Range: 3.3V to 25V
• Output Voltage Range: 0.5V to 3.3V
• Precision Voltage Regulation
- ±0.5% System Accuracy Over -10°C to +100°C
• Output Voltage Remote Sense
The ISL95872 accepts a wide 3.3V to 25V input voltage range,
making it ideal for systems that run on battery or AC-adapter
power sources. It also is a low-cost solution for applications
requiring tracking of an external reference voltage during soft-
start. When the external reference level meets the internal
reference voltage, the ISL95872 switches from the external
reference to the internal reference. The external reference is
only used during soft-start.
• Fixed 300kHz PWM Frequency in Continuous Conduction
- Proprietary Frequency Control Loop
• Automatic Diode Emulation Mode for Highest Efficiency
• Power-Good Monitor for Soft-Start and Fault Detection
Applications
• Compact Buck Regulators Requiring External Tracking

Soft-Start
Theory of Operation
The following sections will provide a detailed description of the
inner workings of the ISL95872.
Once the POR threshold on VCC has been met and ENABLE is
applied, the SREF pin releases its discharge clamp, and enables
the reference amplifier V . The soft-start current I is limited
SET SS
to 85µA and is sourced out of the SREF pin and begins charging
the C capacitor on the SREF pin until it equals V . The
soft-start current will adjust to match the external reference
ramp rate as seen through the resistor divider on the REFIN pin.
The regulator controls the PWM such that the voltage on the
SREF pin tracks the rising voltage on the REFIN pin. The

External Reference Setup
The REFIN input of the ISL95872 requires an external reference
voltage to be connected to this pin. Typically, this will be another
system rail which requires the output of the ISL95872 to follow it
up during boot-up of the two regulators. A resistor divider is
required between the external reference voltage and the REFIN
pin to scale the external voltage down to the internal reference
voltage, see Figure 5.

The R4™ modulator is an evolutionary step in R3™ technology.
Like R3™, the R4™ modulator allows variable frequency in
response to load transients and maintains the benefits of
current-mode hysteretic controllers. However, in addition, the
R4™ modulator reduces regulator output impedance and uses
accurate referencing to eliminate the need for a high-gain
voltage amplifier in the compensation loop. The result is a
topology that can be tuned to voltage-mode hysteretic transient
speed while maintaining a linear control model and removes the
need for any compensation. This greatly simplifies the regulator
design for customers and reduces external component cost.

Stability
Figure 8 illustrates the classic integrator configuration for a
voltage loop error-amplifier. While the integrator provides the
high DC gain required for accurate regulation in traditional
technologies, it also introduces a low-frequency pole into the
control loop. Figure 9 shows the open-loop response that results
from the addition of an integrating capacitor in the voltage loop.
The compensation components found in Figure 8 are necessary
to achieve stability.
The removal of compensation derives from the R4™ modulator’s
lack of need for high DC gain. In traditional architectures, high DC
gain is achieved with an integrator in the voltage loop. The
integrator introduces a pole in the open-loop transfer function at
low frequencies. That, combined with the double-pole from the
output L/C filter, creates a three pole system that must be
compensated to maintain stability.
Classic control theory requires a single-pole transition through
unity gain to ensure a stable system. Current-mode architectures
(includes peak, peak-valley, current-mode hysteretic, R3™ and
R4™) generate a zero at or near the L/C resonant point,
effectively canceling one of the system’s poles. The system still
contains two poles, one of which must be canceled with a zero
before unity gain crossover to achieve stability. Compensation
components are added to introduce the necessary zero.
Because R4™ does not require a high-gain voltage loop, the
integrator can be removed, reducing the number of inherent
poles in the loop to two. The current-mode zero continues to
cancel one of the poles, ensuring a single-pole crossover for a
wide range of output filter choices. The result is a stable system
with no need for compensation components or complex
equations to properly tune the stability.
Figure 10 shows the R4™ error-amplifier that does not require an
integrator for high DC gain to achieve accurate regulation. The
result to the open loop response can be seen in Figure 11.

The polarity of the output inductor current is defined as positive
when conducting away from the phase node, and defined as
negative when conducting towards the phase node. The DC
component of the inductor current is positive, but the AC
component known as the ripple current, can be either positive or
negative. Should the sum of the AC and DC components of the
inductor current remain positive for the entire switching period,
the converter is in continuous-conduction-mode (CCM). However,
if the inductor current becomes negative or zero, the converter is
in discontinuous-conduction-mode (DCM).

Adaptive Shoot-Through Protection
Selecting the LC Output Filter
The duty cycle of an ideal buck converter is a function of the
input and the output voltage. This relationship is expressed in
Equation 9:
Adaptive shoot-through protection prevents a gate-driver output
from turning on until the opposite gate-driver output has fallen
below approximately 1V. The dead-time shown in Figure 14 is
extended by the additional period that the falling gate voltage
remains above the 1V threshold. The high-side gate-driver output
voltage is measured across the UGATE and PHASE pins while the
low-side gate-driver output voltage is measured across the LGATE
and PGND pins. The power for the LGATE gate-driver is sourced
directly from the PVCC pin. The power for the UGATE gate-driver is
supplied by a boot-strap capacitor connected across the BOOT
and PHASE pins. The capacitor is charged each time the phase
node voltage falls a diode drop below PVCC such as when the
low-side MOSFET is turned on.

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 1.25x greater than the maximum input

the switching frequency and total gate charge of the selected
MOSFETs. Calculating the power dissipation in the driver for a
desired application is critical to ensuring safe operation.
Exceeding the maximum allowable power dissipation level will
push the IC beyond the maximum recommended operating
junction temperature of +125°C. When designing the

As a general rule, power layers should be close together, either

signal layers on the opposite side of the board. The ground-plane
layer should be adjacent to the signal layer to provide shielding.
The ground plane layer should have an island located under the

island should be connected to the rest of the ground plane layer
at one quiet point.

sensitive nodes or supply critical bypassing current and signal
coupling.
MOSFET Selection and Considerations
The choice of MOSFETs depends on the current each MOSFET will
be required to conduct, the switching frequency, the capability of
the MOSFETs to dissipate heat, and the availability and nature of
heat sinking and air flow.
Typically, a MOSFET cannot tolerate even brief excursions beyond
their maximum drain to source voltage rating. The MOSFETs used
The power components should be placed first and these include
MOSFETs, input and output capacitors, and the inductor. Keeping
the distance between the power train and the control IC short
helps keep the gate drive traces short. These drive signals
include the LGATE, UGATE, PGND, PHASE and BOOT.
in the power stage of the converter should have a maximum V
DS
rating that exceeds the sum of the upper voltage tolerance of the
input power source and the voltage spike that occurs when the
MOSFETs switch.
When placing MOSFETs, try to keep the source of the upper
MOSFETs and the drain of the lower MOSFETs as close as
thermally possible. See Figure 17. Input high frequency
capacitors should be placed close to the drain of the upper
MOSFETs and the source of the lower MOSFETs. Place the output
inductor and output capacitors between the MOSFETs and the
load. High frequency output decoupling capacitors (ceramic)
should be placed as close as possible to the decoupling target,
making use of the shortest connection paths to any internal
planes. Place the components in such a way that the area under
the IC has less noise traces with high dV/dt and di/dt, such as
gate signals and phase node signals.
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. The preferred low-side MOSFET emphasizes low r
DS(ON)
when fully saturated to minimize conduction loss.
For the low-side MOSFET, (LS), the power loss can be assumed to
be conductive only and is written as Equation 18:

VCC AND PVCC PINS
Place the decoupling capacitors as close as practical to the IC. In
particular, the PVCC decoupling capacitor should have a very
short and wide connection to the PGND pin. The VCC decoupling
capacitor should be referenced to GND pin.
EN AND PGOOD PINS
These are logic signals that are referenced to the GND pin. Treat
as a typical logic signal.
OCSET AND VO PINS
The current-sensing network consisting of R
, R , and C

needs to be connected to the inductor pads for accurate
measurement of the DCR voltage drop. These components
however, should be located physically close to the OCSET and VO
pins with traces leading back to the inductor. It is critical that the
traces are shielded by the ground plane layer all the way to the
inductor pads. The procedure is the same for resistive current
sense.
FB, SREF, REFIN, AND RTN PINS
The input impedance of these pins is high, making it critical to
place the components connected to these pins as close as
possible to the IC.
LGATE, PGND, UGATE, BOOT, AND PHASE PINS
The signals going through these traces are high dv/dt and high
di/dt, with high peak charging and discharging current. The
PGND pin can only flow current from the gate-source charge of
the low-side MOSFETs when LGATE goes low. Ideally, route the
trace from the LGATE pin in parallel with the trace from the PGND
pin, route the trace from the UGATE pin in parallel with the trace
from the PHASE pin. In order to have more accurate zero-crossing
detection of inductor current, it is recommended to connect
Phase pin to the drain of the low-side MOSFETs with Kelvin
connection. These pairs of traces should be short, wide, and
away from other traces with high input impedance; weak signal
traces should not be in proximity with these traces on any layer.
