Compact High Efficiency Low Power Buck-Boost
Regulator
ISL9120
The ISL9120 is a highly integrated buck-boost switching
regulator that accepts input voltages either above or below the
regulated output voltage. This regulator automatically transitions
between buck and boost modes without significant output
disturbance. The ISL9120 also has automatic bypass
functionality for when the input voltage is generally within 1% to
2% of the output voltage, there will be a direct bypass connection
between the VIN and VOUT pins. In addition to the automatic
bypass functionality, the ISL9120 also has forced bypass
functionality with the use of the BYP pin.
This device is capable of delivering up to 800mA of output
current (VIN = 2.5V, VOUT = 3.3V) and provides excellent
efficiency due to its adaptive current limit pulse frequency
modulation (PFM) control architecture.
The ISL9120 is designed for stand-alone applications and
supports a 3.3V fixed output voltage or variable output voltages
with an external resistor divider. The forced bypass power saving
mode can be chosen if voltage regulation is not required. The
device consumes less than 3.5µA of current over the operating
temperature range in forced bypass mode.
The ISL9120 requires only a single inductor and very few external
components. Power supply solution size is minimized by a
1.41mmx1.41mm WLCSP.
