DATASHEET
5A Single Channel High Efficiency DC/DC Step-Down
Power Module
ISL8205M
The ISL8205M power module is a single channel synchronous
step-down complete power supply, capable of delivering up to
5A of continuous current. Operating from a single 2.6V to 5.5V
input power rail and integrating controller, power inductor and
MOSFETs, the ISL8205M only requires a few external
components to operate and is optimized for space constrained
and portable battery operated applications.
Based on current mode PWM control scheme, the ISL8205M
provides a fast transient response and excellent loop stability
as well as a very low duty cycle with an adjustable output
voltage as low as 0.6V and better than 1.6% accuracy over line
and load conditions. Operation frequency is selectable through
an external resistor, with a 1.8MHz default setting, or may be
synchronized with an external clock signal up to 3.5MHz. The
ISL8205M also implements a selectable PFM mode to
improve light-load efficiency and a 100% duty cycle LDO mode
to extend battery life. A programmable soft-start reduces the
inrush current required from the input supply while an
automatic output discharge ensures a soft stop. Dedicated
enable pin and power-good flag allow for easy system power
rails sequencing.
An array of protection features, including input Undervoltage
Lockout (UVLO), over-temperature, overcurrent/short-circuit
with hiccup mode, overvoltage and negative overcurrent,
guarantees safe operations under abnormal operating
conditions.
The ISL8205M is available in a compact RoHS compliant
22 Ld 4.5x7.5x1.85mm QFN package.
