The ISL6405 is a highly integrated voltage regulator and
interface IC, specifically designed for supplying power and
control signals from advanced satellite set-top box (STB)
modules to the low noise blocks (LNBs) of two antenna
ports. The device is comprised of two independent current-
mode boost PWMs and two low-noise linear regulators along
with the circuitry required for 22kHz tone generation,

low external component count.
- Registered Slave Address 0001 00XX
- Full 3.3V/5V Operation up to 400kHz
Two independent current-mode boost converters provide the
linear regulators with input voltages that are set to the final
output voltages, plus typically 1.2V to insure minimum power
dissipation across each linear regulator. This maintains
constant voltage drops across each linear pass element
while permitting adequate voltage range for tone injection.

• Internal Overload and Overtemp Flags (Visible on I C)
The final regulated output voltages are available at two
output terminals to support simultaneous operation of two
antenna ports for dual tuners. The outputs for each PWM are
set to 13V or 18V by independent voltage select commands

NOTES:
1. Intersil Pb-free products employ special Pb-free material sets; molding
compounds/die attach materials and 100% matte tin plate termination
finish, which is 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-020B.
2. Tape and Reel available. Add “-T” suffix for Tape and Reel Packing Option.
CAUTION: These devices are sensitive to electrostatic discharge; follow proper IC Handling Procedures.
