10A Synchronous Buck Regulator with Integrated
Power MOSFETs that Requires No Compensation
ISL95210
Features
The ISL95210 single-output integrated MOSFET regulator
provides a precision voltage regulation system for point-of-load
applications. It implements a 2-bit DAC reference with tri-state
inputs for selecting a variety of regulator output voltages.
Additionally, an external resistor divider or digital voltage margining
may be used to accurately set the output voltage to a value other
than the pre-selected DAC voltages. An additional tri-state input pin
is used to set the frequency to three pre-selected values with no
need for external components.

transient performance, while also including key performance
updates that remove the need for loop compensation and
produce highly accurate switching frequencies. These updates,
along with an integrated digital feature set, allow for a
high-performance regulator that is highly compact and needs few
external components.

Applications
Protection features of this integrated regulator IC include a set of
sophisticated overvoltage, undervoltage, overcurrent and thermal
protections. Combined, these features provide advanced protection
for the load and power system.
