Functional Pin Description
VCC (Pin 1)
Provide a very well decoupled 5V bias supply for the IC to
this pin by connecting it to the ATX 5VSB output. This pin
provides all the bias for the IC as well as the input voltage for
the internal standby 3V3AUX LDO. The voltage at this pin is
monitored for power-on reset (POR) purposes.
GND (Pin 5, Pad)
Signal ground for the IC. These pins are also the ground
return for the internal 3V3AUX LDO that is active in
S3/S4/S5 sleep states. All voltage levels are measured with
respect to these pins.
S3 and S5 (Pins 3 and 4)
These pins switch the IC’s operating state from active (S0,
S1/S2) to S3 and S4/S5 sleep states. These are digital
inputs featuring internal 10µA pull-down current sources on
each pin. Additional circuitry blocks illegal state transitions,
such as S4/S5 to S3. Connect S3 and S5 to the computer
system’s SLP_S3 and SLP_S5 signals, respectively.
3V3AUX (Pin 2)
Connect this pin to the 3V3DUAL output. In sleep states, the
voltage at this pin is regulated to 3.3V through an internal
pass device powered from 5VSBY through the VCC pin. In
active states, ATX 3.3V output is delivered to this node
through a fully-on NMOS transistor. During S3 and S4/S5
states, this pin is monitored for undervoltage events.
DLA (Pin 6)
This pin is an open-drain output. A 1kΩ resistor must be
connected from this pin to the ATX 12V output. This resistor
is used to pull the gates of suitable N-MOSFETs to 12V,
which in active state, switch in the ATX 3.3V and 5V outputs
into the 3.3VAUX and 5VDUAL outputs, respectively. This pin
is also used to monitor the 12V rail during POR. If a resistor
other than 1kΩ is used, the POR level will be affected.
5VDLSB (Pin 7)
Connect this pin to the gate of a suitable P-MOSFET.
ISL6506 and ISL6506B: In S3 sleep state, this transistor is
switched on, connecting the ATX 5VSB output to the 5VDUAL
regulator output.
ISL6506A: In S3 and S4/S5 sleep state, this transistor is
switched on, connecting the ATX 5VSB output to the 5VDUAL
regulator output.
Description
Operation
The ISL6506 controls 2 output voltages, 3.3VDUAL and
5VDUAL. It is designed for microprocessor computer
applications requiring 3.3V, 5V, 5VSB, and 12V bias input
from an ATX power supply. The IC is composed of one linear
controller/regulator supplying the computer system’s
3.3VDUAL power, a dual switch controller supplying the
5VDUAL voltage, as well as all the control and monitoring
functions necessary for complete ACPI implementation.
Initialization
The ISL6506 automatically initializes upon receipt of input
power. The Power-On Reset (POR) function continually
monitors the 5VSB input supply voltage. The ISL6506 also
monitors the 12V rail to insure that the ATX rails are up
before entering into the S0 state even if both SLP_S3 and
SLP_S5 are both high.
Dual Outputs Operational Truth Table
Table 1 describes the truth combinations pertaining to the
3.3VDUAL and 5VDUAL outputs. The internal circuitry does
not allow the transition from an S4/S5 state to an S3 state.

Functional Timing Diagrams
Figures 1 (ISL6506, ISL6506B) and 2 (ISL6506A) are simplified
timing diagrams, detailing the power-up/down sequences of all
the outputs in response to the status of the sleep-state pins (S3,
S5), as well as the status of the input ATX supply. Not shown in
these diagrams is the deglitching feature used to protect
against false sleep state tripping. Additionally, the ISL6506
features a 60µs delay in transitioning from S0 to S3 states. The
transition from the S0 state to S4/S5 state is immediate.
