Product details
Overview
ISL6410AIU from Intersil is a single synchronous buck regulator IC with integrated N- and P-channel MOSFETs, designed for 5.0V ±10% input voltage conversion to pin-programmable outputs of 3.3V, 1.8V, or 1.2V. It delivers up to 600mA continuous output current, operates at 750kHz typical switching frequency, and includes power-good (PG), enable (EN), and synchronization (SYNC) functions. It serves as a compact DC-DC solution for FPGA core supplies in WLAN cards and DSL equipment.
For engineers reviewing the ISL6410AIU datasheet, ISL6410AIU pinout, ISL6410AIU application, or ISL6410AIU equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, confirmed pin roles, exact output voltage programming behavior, thermal shutdown thresholds, and validated alternative options for 5V-input point-of-load regulation.
Technical Context
The ISL6410AIU implements peak current-mode PWM control with internal slope compensation and a fixed 0.45V reference. Its integrated high-side PMOS and low-side NMOS switches (230mΩ rDS(ON) each) enable synchronous rectification, eliminating external diodes and improving efficiency to 93% at 200mA (5V→3.3V).
It supports external clock synchronization from 500kHz to 1MHz on the SYNC pin, features a 5.5ms soft-start duration, and embeds comprehensive protection: UVLO (4.27–4.45V rising threshold), overcurrent limiting (700–1300mA peak), overvoltage shutdown (>30% VOUT), and thermal shutdown at 150°C with 20–25°C hysteresis.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5V to 5.5V - matches standard 5V rail with ±10% tolerance; triggers UVLO below 4.27V. |
| Output Voltage Options | 3.3V (VSET = H), 1.8V (VSET = OPEN), or 1.2V (VSET = L) - selected via direct pin connection, no external resistors required. |
| Continuous Output Current | 600mA - sufficient for low-power FPGA I/O banks or DSP cores without external current boosting. |
| Switching Frequency | 620–860kHz (typ. 750kHz) - enables use of small 12µH inductors and ceramic capacitors; supports external sync up to 1MHz. |
| Efficiency | 93% at 200mA (5V→3.3V) - reduces thermal load in space-constrained modules like WLAN cards. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 150°C activation with 20–25°C hysteresis - prevents latch-up during transient overload and allows safe recovery. |
| Power-Good Accuracy | ±8.0% VOUT window - asserts PG high only when output stabilizes within regulation band, enabling reliable system sequencing. |
Pinout & Package
ISL6410AIU is housed in a 10-lead MSOP package (JEDEC MO-187BA, pkg drawing M10.118), measuring 3.0mm × 3.0mm × 0.85mm, with exposed pad for thermal enhancement. Pin 1 is marked by a dot or bevelled corner.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Main input supply | 5.0V ±10% input; powers control circuitry and gate drivers; requires local 1µF decoupling. |
| PVCC | Power MOSFET supply | Provides dedicated voltage to internal FET gates; must be decoupled with 1µF capacitor near pin. |
| GND | Analog ground reference | Reference for error amplifier, oscillator, and logic; must be separated from PGND to avoid noise coupling. |
| PG | Open-drain power-good indicator | Active-high when VOUT is within ±8.0%; requires external pull-up to VIN for 5V logic compatibility. |
| FB | Feedback input | Connected directly to VOUT for closed-loop regulation; internal 0.45V reference sets output voltage. |
| PGND | Power ground return | Low-impedance return path for inductor current and internal FET sources; connects to PCB ground plane under exposed pad. |
| L | Switch node | Drain junction of internal FETs; connects to external inductor; carries high dv/dt switching waveform. |
| EN | Enable control | Logic-high (>70% VIN) enables regulation; logic-low (<30% VIN) shuts down IC, reducing quiescent current to ≤10µA. |
| SYNC | External clock input | Accepts CMOS-level signal (500–1000kHz); device auto-synchronizes to first rising edge and reverts to internal oscillator if signal stops. |
| VSET | Output voltage select | Configures output: tied to VIN → 3.3V; floating → 1.8V; tied to GND → 1.2V (per Table 1 in FN9149 Rev 3.00). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fully integrated synchronous buck | Eliminates external MOSFETs and catch diode - reduces BOM count and layout area by ≥4 components. |
| Pin-programmable output voltages | Three fixed outputs (3.3V/1.8V/1.2V) set without feedback resistors - simplifies design and improves accuracy vs. resistor-divider drift. |
| Stable with ceramic output capacitors | Supports low-ESR ceramics ≥10µF - avoids bulkier, higher-ESR tantalum or electrolytic capacitors and improves transient response. |
| Internal slope-compensated current-mode control | Enables stable operation across full load range without external compensation network - reduces design iteration time. |
| Reset supervisory block (RESET) | Monitors VIN and asserts push-pull RESET for ≥25ms after undervoltage event - ensures clean microprocessor reset without external supervisor IC. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62231DRVR | 3-MHz fixed-frequency, 600mA, 5V-input; uses external feedback resistors; no VSET pin or integrated RESET. | Requires resistor divider for output setting; lacks built-in reset supervision and power-good polarity matching for 5V logic. | Choose when higher switching frequency (3MHz) and smaller inductors are prioritized over pin-programmability and integrated reset. |
| RT8059NGSP | 2-MHz, 600mA, 5V-input; supports adjustable output via resistor divider; includes PG but no RESET; different enable threshold (1.25V fixed). | Needs external resistors for 3.3V/1.8V/1.2V; PG is open-drain but referenced to VOUT, not VIN - incompatible with 5V logic pull-up. | Prefer when board space allows resistor-based tuning and system already provides discrete reset monitoring. |
Compared with TPS62231DRVR and RT8059NGSP, the ISL6410AIU uniquely combines pin-selectable outputs, 5V-compatible PG and RESET, and integrated thermal/overcurrent protection - reducing component count and simplifying compliance with strict sequencing requirements in telecom and embedded systems.

FAQ
What input voltage range does the ISL6410AIU support?
The ISL6410AIU supports an input voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V, corresponding to a nominal 5.0V ±10% supply. Its undervoltage lockout (UVLO) activates below 4.27V (rising threshold), ensuring reliable startup only within specification. This makes ISL6410AIU appropriate for systems powered by regulated 5V rails, such as DSL modems and WLAN baseband boards.
How is the output voltage configured on the ISL6410AIU?
The ISL6410AIU uses the VSET pin to select one of three fixed output voltages: tie VSET to VIN for 3.3V, leave it open for 1.8V, or connect it to GND for 1.2V. This pin-programmable method eliminates external feedback resistors and associated tolerance errors. The configuration is defined in Table 1 of the FN9149 datasheet and applies exclusively to the ISL6410AIU variant.
Does the ISL6410AIU include power-good and reset functionality?
Yes, the ISL6410AIU integrates both power-good (PG) and reset (RESET) functions. PG is an open-drain output active high when VOUT is within ±8.0% of target; RESET is a push-pull output that asserts low for ≥25ms during VIN undervoltage. Both signals are fully functional on ISL6410AIU and referenced to the 5V input domain, matching system-level logic requirements.
What package type and thermal characteristics does the ISL6410AIU have?
The ISL6410AIU is supplied in a 10-lead MSOP package (M10.118, JEDEC MO-187BA) with θJA = 128°C/W. It operates from -40°C to +85°C ambient and includes thermal shutdown at 150°C with 20–25°C hysteresis. The exposed pad enhances thermal performance and must be soldered to a thermal pad on the PCB for optimal reliability.
Can the ISL6410AIU be synchronized to an external clock?
Yes, the ISL6410AIU accepts an external CMOS clock signal on the SYNC pin across 500kHz to 1MHz. It automatically locks to the first rising edge and reverts to its internal 750kHz oscillator if the external signal stops for four consecutive cycles. This capability enables EMI reduction through frequency dithering or system-level clock alignment in multi-rail designs using ISL6410AIU.
