Overview

Description

The ISL8115EVAL1Z is a synchronous buck converter evaluation board that is used to implement Renesas' ISL8115 wide input range pulse width modulation (PWM) controller. Utilizing voltage mode control with input feed-forward, this board maintains a constant loop gain for an optimal transient response, especially for applications with a wide input voltage range.

Features

  • Wide VIN range operation: 2.97V to 36V; up to 5.5V output and 30A load current per phase
  • Fast transient response
    • Voltage-mode PWM leading-edge modulation with non-linear control
    • Input voltage feed-forward
  • Integrated 5V high-speed 4A MOSFET gate drivers
    • Internal bootstrap diode
  • Oscillator programmable from 150kHz to 1.5MHz
    • Frequency synchronization to an external clock signal
  • Diode emulation mode for light load efficiency improvement
  • Output OVP/UVP, OCP and OTP
  • Power-good (PGOOD) open drain output
  • Adjustable soft-start
  • Pre-bias start-up function
  • Excellent output voltage regulation
    • 0.6V ±1.0% internal reference (-40 °C ~ 125 °C)
    • 0.6V ±0.7% internal reference (-40 °C ~ 105 °C)
    • Differential voltage sensing

Applications

Applications

  • Power supply for datacom/telecom and point-of-load (POL)
