The ISL6227 dual PWM controller delivers high efficiency precision voltage regulation from two synchronous buck DC/DC converters. It was designed especially to provide power regulation for DDR memory, chipsets, graphics and other system electronics in Notebook PCs. The ISL6227's wide input voltage range capability allows for voltage conversion directly from AC/DC adaptor or brLi-Ion battery pack.brbr Automatic mode transition of constant-frequency synchronous rectification at heavy load, and hysteretic (HYS) diode-emulation at light load, assure high efficiency over a wide range of conditions. The HYS mode of operation can be disabled separately on each PWM converter if constant-frequency continuous-conductio
n operation is desired for all load levels. Efficiency is further enhanced by using the lower MOSFET rsubDS(ON)/sub as the current sense element.brbr Voltage-feed-forward ramp modulation, current mode control, and internal feedback compensation provide fast response to input voltage and load transients. Input current ripple is minimized by channel-to-channel PWM phase shift of 0°, 90° or 180° (determined by input voltage and status of the DDR pin).brbr The ISL6227 can control two independent output voltages adjustable from 0.9V to 5.5V, or by activating the DDR pin, transform into a complete DDR memory power supply solution. In DDR mode, CH2 output voltage VTT tracks CH1 output voltage VDDQ. CH2 output can both source and sink current, an essential power supply feature for DDR memory. The reference voltage VREF required by DDR memory is generated as well.brbr In dual power supply applications the ISL6227 monitors the output voltage of both CH1 and CH2. An independent PGOOD (power good) signal is asserted for each channel after the soft-start sequence has completed, and the output voltage is within PGOOD window.
