The ISL9103, ISL9103A is a 500mA, 2.4MHz step-down
regulator, which is ideal for powering low-voltage
Features
• High Efficiency Integrated Synchronous Buck Regulator
with up to 95% Efficiency
microprocessors in compact devices such as PDAs and
cellular phones. It is optimized for generating low output
voltages down to 0.8V. The supply voltage range is from
2.7V to 6V allowing the use of a single Li+ cell, three NiMH
cells or a regulated 5V input. It has guaranteed minimum
output current of 500mA. A high switching frequency of
2.4MHz pulse-width modulation (PWM) allows using small
external components. Under light load condition, the device
• 2.7V to 6.0V Supply Voltage
• 2.4MHz PWM Switching Frequency
• 500mA Guaranteed Output Current
• 3% Output Accuracy Over-Temperature and Line for Fixed
Output Options
operates at low I skip mode with typical 20µA quiescent
Q
• 20µA Quiescent Supply Current in Skip Mode
• Less than 1µA Logic Controlled Shutdown Current
• 100% Maximum Duty Cycle for Lowest Dropout
current for highest light load efficiency to maximize battery
life, and it automatically switches to fixed frequency PWM
mode under heavy load condition.
The ISL9103, ISL9103A includes a pair of low
• Ultrasonic Switching Frequency at Skip Mode to Prevent
Audible Frequency Noise (For ISL9103A Only)
ON-resistance P-Channel and N-Channel internal MOSFETs
to maximize system efficiency and minimize the external
component count. 100% duty-cycle operation allows less
than 300mV dropout voltage at 500mA.
• Discharge Output Capacitor when Disabled
• Internal Digital Soft-Start
• Peak Current Limiting, Short Circuit Protection
• Over-Temperature Protection
The ISL9103, ISL9103A offers internal digital soft-start,
enable for power sequence, overcurrent protection and
thermal shutdown functions. In addition, the ISL9103,
ISL9103A offers a quick bleeding function that discharges
the output capacitor when the IC is disabled.
• Chip Enable
• Small 6 Pin 1.6mmx1.6mm UTDFN Package
• Pb-Free (RoHS Compliant)
The ISL9103, ISL9103A is offered in a 1.6x1.6mm UTDFN
package. The complete converter occupies less than
