Compact Synchronous Buck Converters
ISL80020, ISL80020A, ISL80015, ISL80015A
The ISL80020, ISL80020A, ISL80015 and ISL80015A are highly
efficient, monolithic, synchronous step-down DC/DC converters
Features
• V range 2.7V to 5.5V
IN
that can deliver up to 2A of continuous output current from a 2.7V
to 5.5V input supply. They use peak current mode control
architecture to allow very low duty cycle operation. They operate
at either 1MHz or 2MHz switching frequency, thereby providing
superior transient response and allowing for the use of small
inductors. They have excellent stability.
• I
OUT
maximum is 1.5A or 2A (see Table 1 on page 2)
• Switching frequency is 1MHz or 2MHz (see Table 1 on page 2)
• Overcurrent and short circuit protection
• Over-temperature/thermal protection
• Negative current protection
The ISL80020, ISL80020A, ISL80015 and ISL80015A integrate
very low r
MOSFETs in order to maximize efficiency. In
DS(ON)
• Power-good and enable
addition, since the high-side MOSFET is a PMOS, the need for a
Boot capacitor is eliminated, thereby reducing external
component count. They can operate at 100% duty cycle
(at 1MHz).
• 100% duty cycle (1MHZ)
• Internal soft-start and soft-stop
• V undervoltage lockout and V
IN
overvoltage protection
OUT
The device is configured in PWM (pulse width modulation) for
fast transient response, which helps reduce the output noise
and RF interference.
• Up to 95% peak efficiency
Applications
• General purpose POL
These devices are offered in a space saving 8 pin 2mmx2mm
TDFN lead free package with exposed pad for improved thermal
performance. The complete converter occupies less than
