Regulator
ISL70003ASEH
Features
The ISL70003ASEH is an improved version of the ISL70003SEH
regulator with both tighter load regulation (<0.3% typical) and a
higher output current rating of 9A. Operating over an input voltage
• Acceptance tested to 50krad(Si) (LDR) wafer-by-wafer
• ±1% reference voltage over line, temperature and radiation

The ISL70003ASEH uses voltage mode control architecture
with feed-forward and switches at a selectable frequency of
500kHz or 300kHz. Loop compensation is externally
adjustable to allow for an optimum balance between stability
and output dynamic performance.
• Grounded lid eliminates charge build up
• IMON pin for output current monitoring
• Adjustable analog soft-start
• Diode emulation for increased efficiency at light loads
• 500kHz or 300kHz operating frequency
• Monotonic start-up into prebiased load
• Full military temperature range operation
The device features two logic-level disable inputs that can be
used to inhibit pulses on the phase (LXx) pins in order to
maximize efficiency based on the load current. The
ISL70003ASEH also supports DDR applications and contains a
buffer amplifier for generating the V
voltage.
