Product details
Overview
ISL6128IRZA-T from Intersil is a 4-channel programmable power-supply sequencer with dual-group redundancy architecture, designed to control turn-on/turn-off sequencing of two independent 2-rail voltage domains (A/B and C/D). It features dual ENABLE inputs, dual RESET outputs, 1.5V–5.5V bias operation, VDD+5.3V charge-pump gate drive, and undervoltage lockout monitoring on all four rails - used in FPGA/microprocessor power systems requiring fault-isolated sequencing.
For engineers reviewing the ISL6128IRZA-T datasheet, ISL6128IRZA-T pinout, ISL6128IRZA-T application, or ISL6128IRZA-T equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-group fault containment, independent enable/reset per group, adjustable sequencing delay via external capacitors, and compatibility with low-voltage (1.5V) bias supplies in high-reliability embedded power systems.
Technical Context
The ISL6128IRZA-T implements a dual-group architecture where channels A/B form one controlled domain and C/D form another, each with dedicated ENABLE_1/ENABLE_2 and RESET/RESET_2 I/O. All four UVLO inputs must be satisfied before sequencing begins, but a fault in one group (e.g., UVLO_A violation) only pulls down GATE_A/GATE_B and RESET, leaving the C/D group fully operational.
Sequencing timing is set by external capacitors on DLY_ON_X and DLY_OFF_X pins, charged by precision 1µA current sources to a 1.266V threshold; gate drive uses an internal micropower 7× charge pump delivering VDD+5.3V to drive external N-channel MOSFETs, supporting soft-start ramp control and glitch-immune operation down to 1V VDD.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDD Range | 1.5V to 5.5V - enables direct bias from low-voltage system rails without auxiliary LDO. |
| Gate Drive Voltage | VDD + 5.3V - sufficient headroom to fully enhance standard logic-level N-channel MOSFETs across full VDD range. |
| UVLO Threshold | 633 mV ±14 mV - precise internal reference allows accurate rail monitoring using simple resistor dividers. |
| DLY Current Source | 1.0 µA ±8% - enables predictable, temperature-stable sequencing delays (e.g., 1.3s per µF) via external capacitor. |
| Reset Delay | 160 ms after final GATE reaches VQP - ensures output voltage stabilization before system release. |
| Operating Temp | -40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial and telecom infrastructure environments. |
| Package | 24-lead 4×4 mm QFN - compact footprint with exposed pad for thermal management in dense PCB layouts. |
Pinout & Package
ISL6128IRZA-T is housed in a 24-lead, 4 mm × 4 mm, 0.5 mm pitch Pb-free QFN package (PKG DWG # L24.4x4) with exposed thermal pad. Pin functions are validated per FN9005 Rev 1.00 datasheet Figure 3 (ISL6128 top view) and Pin Descriptions (Page 4).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD (23) | IC Bias Supply | Accepts 1.5V–5.5V input; powers internal logic, charge pump, and timing circuits. |
| GND (10) | Ground Reference | Primary signal return; EPAD serves as secondary thermal/ground path. |
| ENABLE_1 (1) | Group A/B Enable Input | Active-low input initiating sequencing for channels A and B; requires 10ms UVLO stability before activation. |
| ENABLE_2 (11) | Group C/D Enable Input | Active-low input initiating sequencing for channels C and D; independent restart capability after group fault. |
| RESET (24) | Group A/B Reset Output | Open-drain output asserting low for 160ms after GATE_A/GATE_B reach VQP; pulled low during UVLO fault in A/B group. |
| RESET_2 (9) | Group C/D Reset Output | Open-drain output mirroring RESET behavior for C/D group; unaffected by A/B group faults. |
| UVLO_A–D (20,12,17,14) | Rail Monitoring Inputs | Each references internal 0.633V; supports programmable undervoltage detection via external resistor dividers. |
| GATE_A–D (2,5,6,7) | External FET Gate Drivers | Charge-pump outputs driving N-MOSFET gates to VDD+5.3V; provide soft-start current limiting (1.1 µA typical). |
| DLY_ON_A–D (21,8,16,15) | Turn-On Timing Control | Capacitor-connected nodes charged by 1µA source to 1.266V threshold; determines per-channel ramp delay. |
| DLY_OFF_A–D (18,13,3,4) | Turn-Off Timing Control | Identical function to DLY_ON but for shutdown sequence; no 10ms enable lockout delay on deassertion. |
| SYSRST (22) | System Reset I/O | Multi-function pin: input for unconditional latch-off; output for cascaded fault propagation across multiple sequencers. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent sequencing groups | Enables fault containment: UVLO fault in A/B group disables only GATE_A/GATE_B and RESET, preserving C/D group operation. |
| Two dedicated ENABLE inputs | Allows staggered or conditional activation of each 2-rail group - e.g., enable A/B at power-up, C/D only after FPGA configuration completes. |
| Two isolated RESET outputs | Permits separate reset signaling to different subsystems (e.g., processor core vs. I/O bank), eliminating single-point failure dependency. |
| VDD+5.3V charge-pump gate drive | Ensures full enhancement of standard N-channel MOSFETs without external boost circuitry, reducing BOM count and layout area. |
| Glitch-immune UVLO with 30 µs filter | Rejects transient supply dips shorter than 30 µs, preventing false shutdowns in noisy industrial or telecom power environments. |
Applications
| FPGA Power Domain Sequencing | Redundant Telecom Power System |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar power-supply sequencing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ISL6126IRZA-T | Single ENABLE, voltage-determined turn-on (each GATE activates independently when its UVLO is met), no dual-group isolation. | Suitable for non-redundant systems where rails power up based on upstream supply readiness (e.g., cascaded DC-DC outputs), not fixed order. | Select ISL6126IRZA-T when sequencing must follow natural supply ramp behavior rather than grouped deterministic order. |
| TPS65286RTVR | Integrated 4-channel PMIC with buck regulators, fixed 1.2V/1.8V/3.3V/5V outputs, no external FET support or dual-group fault isolation. | Targeted at cost-sensitive, space-constrained applications needing regulated outputs - not discrete FET-based sequencing. | Choose TPS65286RTVR only when replacing discrete regulators is acceptable and dual-group redundancy is unnecessary. |
Compared with ISL6126IRZA-T and TPS65286RTVR, the ISL6128IRZA-T uniquely delivers hardware-enforced fault isolation between two 2-rail domains - critical for systems requiring uninterrupted operation of one subsystem during another's power fault, without software intervention or layout redesign.

FAQ
What is the function of ENABLE_2 on the ISL6128IRZA-T?
ENABLE_2 is the active-low enable input for the C/D channel group. When asserted, it initiates sequencing for GATE_C and GATE_D after all four UVLO inputs are satisfied and ENABLE_1 has been asserted. Unlike ENABLE_1, ENABLE_2 allows independent restart of the C/D group following a fault, without resetting the A/B group - a key feature for redundant system operation in the ISL6128IRZA-T.
Does the ISL6128IRZA-T support 1.5V VDD operation?
Yes, the ISL6128IRZA-T operates over a VDD range of 1.5V to 5.5V. At 1.5V bias, it delivers VDD+5.3V = 6.8V gate drive - sufficient to fully enhance logic-level N-channel MOSFETs. Its internal 1µA timing current sources and 0.633V UVLO reference remain stable across this range, making the ISL6128IRZA-T suitable for ultra-low-voltage system designs.
How does fault containment work in the ISL6128IRZA-T?
Fault containment in the ISL6128IRZA-T is implemented at the hardware level: a UVLO violation on UVLO_A or UVLO_B pulls down only GATE_A/GATE_B and asserts RESET, while GATE_C/GATE_D and RESET_2 remain unaffected. Recovery requires cycling ENABLE_1 only - no action needed on ENABLE_2 or the C/D group. This behavior is intrinsic to the ISL6128IRZA-T's dual-group architecture and requires no firmware or external logic.
Can the ISL6128IRZA-T sequence more than four rails?
Yes, the ISL6128IRZA-T supports daisy-chaining via the SYSRST pin. When multiple ISL6128IRZA-T devices are connected with SYSRST outputs tied together, a fault or shutdown on one device propagates to others, enabling coordinated sequencing across >4 rails. The datasheet confirms "multiple sequencers can be daisy-chained to sequence an infinite number of independent supplies" - a documented capability of the ISL6128IRZA-T.
What is the purpose of the DLY_OFF pins on the ISL6128IRZA-T?
The DLY_OFF_A–D pins on the ISL6128IRZA-T control turn-off sequencing delay by sinking 1µA current into external capacitors tied to ground. When ENABLE_1 or ENABLE_2 is deasserted, charging begins; once a DLY_OFF pin reaches 1.266V, its associated GATE is pulled low. This enables precise, user-defined shutdown order - for example, turning off I/O rails before core rails - a critical timing function built into the ISL6128IRZA-T.
