Renesas Electronics Corporation 300kHz Dual, 180° Out-of-Phase, Step-Down PWM and Single Linear Controller ISL6443AIRZ

The ISL6443A is a high-performance, triple-output controller optimized for converting wall adapter, battery or network intermediate bus DC input supplies into the system supply voltages required for a wide variety of applications. Each output is adjustable down to 0.8V. The two PWMs are synchronized at 180° out of phase, thus reducing the RMS input current and ripple voltage.brbr The ISL6443A incorporates several protection features. An adjustable overcurrent protection circuit monitors the output current by sensing the voltage drop across the lower MOSFET. Hiccup mode overcurrent operation protects the DC/DC components from damage during output overload/short circuit conditions. Each PWM has an independent logic-level shutdown input (SD1span style="text-decorati on: overline"SD1/span and span style="text-decorati on: overline"SD2/span).b rbr A single PGOOD signal is issued when soft-start is complete on both PWM controllers and their outputs are within 10% of the set point and the linear regulator output is greater than 75% of its setpoint. Thermal shutdown circuitry turns off the device if the junction temperature exceeds +150°C.
