FN9257.0
Synchronous Buck Pulse-Width
Modulator (PWM) Controller
Features
• Operates from an +8V ±5% to +14V ±10% Input
The ISL8104 is a high performance synchronous controller
for demanding DC/DC converter applications. It provides
overcurrent fault protection and is designed to safely start-up
into prebiased output loads.
• Excellent Output Voltage Regulation
- 0.597V Internal Reference
- ±1% Over the Commercial Temperature Range
- ±1.5% Over the Industrial Temperature Range
• Simple Single-Loop Control Design
- Voltage-Mode PWM Control
• Fast Transient Response
- High-Bandwidth Error Amplifier
- Full 0% to 100% Duty Ratio
- Leading and Falling Edge Modulation
• Small Converter Size
- Constant Frequency Operation
- Oscillator Programmable from 50kHz to Over 1.5MHz
The output voltage of the converter can be precisely
regulated to as low as 0.597V, with a maximum tolerance of
±1% over the commercial temperature range, and ±1.5%
over the industrial temperature range.
The ISL8104 provides simple, single feedback loop, voltage-
mode control with fast transient response. It includes a
triangle-wave oscillator that is adjustable from below 50kHz
to over 1.5MHz. Full (0% to 100%) PWM duty cycle support
is provided.
• 14V High Speed MOSFET Gate Drivers
- 2.0A Source/3A Sink at 14V Low Side Gate Drive
- 1.25A Source/2A Sink at 14V High Side Gate Drive
- Drives Two N-Channel MOSFETs
The error amplifier features a 15MHz gain-bandwidth
product and 6V/µs slew rate which enables high converter
bandwidth for fast transient performance.
The ISL8104's overcurrent protection monitors the current

- Reduced ~120ns Blanking Time
• Converter can Source and Sink Current
• Soft-Start Done and an External Reference Pin for
Tracking Applications are Available in the QFN Package
• Pin Compatible with ISL6522 and ISL6535
• Supports Start-Up into Prebiased Loads

NOTE: Intersil Pb-free plus anneal products employ special Pb-free material sets;
molding compounds/die attach materials and 100% matte tin plate termination finish,
which are RoHS compliant and compatible with both SnPb and Pb-free soldering
operations. Intersil Pb-free products are MSL classified at Pb-free peak reflow
temperatures that meet or exceed the Pb-free requirements of IPC/JEDEC J
STD-020.
