The ISL6530 provides complete control and protection for
dual DC-DC converters optimized for high-performance
DDRAM memory applications. It is designed to drive low
cost N-channel MOSFETs in synchronous-rectified buck

• Fast transient response
- Full 0% to 100% duty ratio
The V

output of the converter is maintained at 2.5V
through an integrated precision voltage reference. The V
output is precisely regulated to 1/2 the memory power
supply, with a maximum tolerance of ±1% over temperature
REF
• Operates from +5V input
• Overcurrent fault monitor on VDD
- Does not require extra current sensing element
and line voltage variations. V accurately tracks V
.
TT REF
- Uses MOSFET’s r
DS(ON)
During V2_SD sleep mode, the V output is maintained by
TT
a low power window regulator.
• Drives inexpensive N-Channel MOSFETs
The ISL6530 provides simple, single feedback loop, voltage-
mode control with fast transient response. It includes two
phase-locked 300kHz triangle-wave oscillators which are
• Small converter size
- 300kHz fixed frequency oscillator

• 24 Lead, SOIC or 32 Lead, 5mm×5mm QFN
• Pb-Free Available (RoHS Compliant)
displaced 90 to minimize interference between the two
PWM regulators. The regulators feature error amplifiers with
a 15MHz gain-bandwidth product and 6V/µs slew rate which
enables high converter bandwidth for fast transient
performance. The resulting PWM duty ratio ranges from 0%
to 100%.

NOTE: Intersil Pb-free 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-020C.
CAUTION: These devices are sensitive to electrostatic discharge; follow proper IC Handling Procedures.
