55V Synchronous Buck Controller with Integrated 3A
Driver
ISL78268
The ISL78268 is a grade 1, automotive, synchronous buck
controller with integrated high/low side MOSFET drivers. It
supports a wide operating input voltage range of 5V to 55V
and up to 60V at VIN when not switching. The integrated driver
offers adaptive dead-time control and is capable of supplying
up to 2A sourcing and 3A sinking current, allowing the
ISL78268 to support power stages designed for a wide range
of loads, from under 1A to over 25A.
ISL78268’s fully synchronous architecture enables power
conversion with very high efficiency and improved thermal
performance over standard buck converters. The ISL78268 also
offers diode emulation mode for improved light load efficiency.
While ISL78268 is a peak current mode PWM controller, it
also includes a dedicated average output current modulation
loop, which achieves constant output current limiting for
applications such as battery charging, super-cap charging, and
temperature control systems where a constant current must
be provided.
The ISL78268 supports switching frequencies from 50kHz to
1.1MHz allowing the user the flexibility to trade-off switching
frequency and efficiency against the size of external
components.
The ISL78268 offers comprehensive protection features. It
includes robust current protection with cycle-by-cycle peak
current limiting, average current limiting, and a selectable
hiccup or latch-off fault responses. In addition, it offers
protection against over-temperature, as well as input and
output overvoltages.
