Product details
Overview
HIP6004ECV from Intersil is a synchronous-rectified buck PWM controller with integrated voltage-mode regulation, 5-bit VID DAC, and output voltage monitoring for microprocessor VRM8.5 applications. It drives two N-channel MOSFETs, delivers 1.05–1.825V output in 25mV steps, maintains ±1% regulation over line/temperature, and features 15MHz GBWP error amplifier and 200kHz programmable oscillator (50kHz–1MHz).
For engineers reviewing the HIP6004ECV datasheet, HIP6004ECV pinout, HIP6004ECV application, or HIP6004ECV equivalent, key selection considerations include its rDS(ON)-based overcurrent sensing, PGOOD window comparator (±10%), OVP-triggered SCR crowbar, soft-start current source (10μA), and TSSOP-20 package compatibility with VRM8.5 power delivery requirements.
Technical Context
The HIP6004ECV implements voltage-mode PWM control using a 200kHz free-running oscillator adjustable via RT-to-GND or RT-to-VCC resistor networks. Its error amplifier provides 15MHz gain-bandwidth and 6V/μs slew rate to support fast transient response in high-current microprocessor supplies.
Overcurrent protection uses the upper MOSFET's rDS(ON) with an internal 200μA current source at OCSET and external ROCSET resistor-eliminating sense resistors. Output voltage is set by five TTL-compatible VID pins (VID25mV–VID3) feeding a 5-bit DAC that also defines PGOOD and OVP thresholds.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| HIP6006CBZ | Same family, SOIC-20 package; includes enhanced current-sense amplifier and improved thermal performance (θJA = 65°C/W) | Preferred for higher ambient temperature environments or where board space allows SOIC footprint | Select HIP6006CBZ when thermal margin is critical and SOIC packaging is acceptable. |
| ISL6522CBZ | Successor generation with integrated MOSFET drivers, 3A peak gate drive, and improved transient response (20MHz GBWP) | Supports newer VRM9.x specifications and higher-frequency operation (>1.5MHz) | Choose ISL6522CBZ for next-generation designs requiring higher bandwidth and tighter voltage tolerances. |
Compared with HIP6004ECV, HIP6006CBZ offers better thermal dissipation in SOIC but lacks TSSOP form factor; ISL6522CBZ delivers higher performance and VRM9.x compliance but requires layout revision and updated VID mapping - both require validation against original timing and protection thresholds.

FAQ
What is the function of the OCSET pin on the HIP6004ECV?
The OCSET pin on the HIP6004ECV accepts an external resistor (ROCSET) connected to the drain of the upper MOSFET and works with the internal 200μA current source to set the overcurrent trip threshold based on rDS(ON). This enables resistor-programmable peak current limiting without a sense resistor. The HIP6004ECV uses this signal to initiate hiccup-mode soft-start recovery upon overcurrent detection.
Does the HIP6004ECV support both +5V and +12V bias supplies?
Yes, the HIP6004ECV supports operation from either +5V or +12V applied to the VCC pin, with specified operating range of +12V ±10%. The datasheet confirms compatibility with both input configurations, and the Power-On Reset (POR) circuit monitors VCC to ensure proper initialization regardless of supply choice. The HIP6004ECV maintains full functionality-including DAC accuracy, oscillator stability, and gate drive strength-under either condition.
How does the HIP6004ECV achieve ±1% output voltage regulation?
The HIP6004ECV achieves ±1% output voltage regulation through a precision internal reference combined with a 5-bit DAC whose output (DACOUT) directly sets the feedback reference. This reference is compared against VSEN in the error amplifier, and the resulting error signal modulates PWM duty cycle. The ±1% tolerance is guaranteed over full line voltage and temperature ranges (0°C to 70°C), as verified in the Electrical Specifications table. The HIP6004ECV maintains this accuracy without external trimming components.
Can the HIP6004ECV be used in VRM9.x-compliant designs?
No, the HIP6004ECV is designed for VRM8.5 compliance and does not meet VRM9.x requirements, which mandate tighter voltage tolerances (±0.5%), higher bandwidth, and updated VID protocols. While it may operate in some VRM9.x systems at reduced performance margins, its ±1% regulation, 15MHz GBWP, and VID encoding scheme are aligned with VRM8.5 only. For VRM9.x, Renesas recommends successors like ISL6522CBZ. The HIP6004ECV remains appropriate for legacy VRM8.5 deployments.
What is the purpose of the BOOT and PHASE pins on the HIP6004ECV?
The BOOT pin provides floating bias voltage for the upper gate driver, enabling full enhancement of the N-channel high-side MOSFET via a bootstrap capacitor. The PHASE pin connects to the source of that same MOSFET and serves dual roles: it supplies the return path for the UGATE driver current and provides the voltage reference for rDS(ON)-based overcurrent sensing. Together, BOOT and PHASE allow efficient high-side drive without requiring a dedicated high-voltage charge pump. This configuration is integral to the HIP6004ECV's synchronous buck implementation.
