Triple, 180° Out-of-Phase, Synchronous Step-Down
PWM Controller
ISL9443
Features
The ISL9443 is a triple-output synchronous buck controller that
integrates three PWM controllers which are fully featured and
designed to provide multi-rail power for use in products such as
cable and satellite set-top boxes, VoIP gateways, cable modems,
and other home connectivity products as well as a variety of
industrial and general purpose applications. Each output is
adjustable down to 0.7V. The PWMs are synchronized at 180°
out-of-phase, thus reducing the input RMS current and ripple
voltage.
• Three Integrated Synchronous Buck PWM Controllers
- Internal Bootstrap Diodes
- Independent Programmable Output Voltage
- Independent Soft-Starting and Tracking
• Power-Good Indicator
• Light Load Efficiency Enhancement
- Low Ripple Diode Emulation Mode with Pulse Skipping
• Supports Pre-Biased Output
The ISL9443 offers programmable soft-start and tracking
functions for ease of supply rail sequencing and integrated
UV/OV/OC/OT protections in a space conscious 5mmx5mm QFN
package.
• Programmable Frequency: 200kHz to 1200kHz
• Adaptive Shoot-Through Protection
• Out-of-Phase Switching (0°/180°/0°)
Switching frequency can be set between 200kHz and 1200kHz
using a resistor. The ISL9443 can be synchronized to an external
clock to reduce beat frequencies.
• No External Current Sense Resistor
- Uses Lower MOSFET’s rDS(ON)
• Complete Protection
The ISL9443 utilizes internal loop compensation to keep
minimum peripheral components for a compact design and a
low total solution cost. The controller is implemented with
current mode control with feed forward to cover various
applications even with fixed internal compensation.
- Overcurrent, Overvoltage, Over-Temperature
• Wide Input Voltage Range: 4.5V to 26V
• Pb-Free (RoHS Compliant)
Applications
• VoX Gateway Devices
• NAS/SAN Devices
