Product details
Overview
ISL8002BIRZ-T7A from Renesas (formerly Intersil) is a monolithic synchronous buck regulator delivering up to 2A continuous output current from a 2.7V–5.5V input, operating at 2MHz switching frequency with peak efficiency of 95%, and featuring selectable PFM/PWM light-load operation for POL applications in FPGAs and telecom equipment.
For engineers reviewing the ISL8002BIRZ-T7A datasheet, ISL8002BIRZ-T7A pinout, ISL8002BIRZ-T7A application, or ISL8002BIRZ-T7A equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed thermal and protection features, and real-world design implications for compact DC/DC conversion in space-constrained industrial and embedded systems.
Technical Context
The ISL8002BIRZ-T7A uses peak current-mode control with internal slope compensation (900mV/Ts) and a transconductance error amplifier (80µA/V) with internal 27pF/200kΩ compensation. Its P-channel high-side MOSFET eliminates boot capacitor requirements.
It supports three operational modes: PWM (forced continuous conduction), PFM (discontinuous conduction for ultra-low quiescent current), and soft-start/track sequencing via the SS/TR pin. Protection includes overcurrent (3.2A typ), thermal shutdown (150°C), UVLO (2.7V rising), and output overvoltage detection via FB monitoring.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VIN Range | 2.7V to 5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion, USB, and 3.3V/5V rail inputs without external LDO pre-regulation. |
| IOUT Max | 2A continuous - sufficient for FPGA core rails, DSP I/O, or ASIC auxiliary supplies. |
| fSW | 2MHz nominal (1.7–2.3MHz) - enables use of sub-1µH inductors and <64mm² total PCB area. |
| Efficiency Peak | 95% - achieved at mid-load with PFM mode, minimizing heat rise in sealed enclosures. |
| Feedback Voltage | 0.600V ±5mV - sets output via resistor divider; tight tolerance reduces calibration overhead in precision rails. |
| Soft-Start Time | 0.1ms (external) or 1ms (internal) - prevents inrush into downstream capacitors during power-up sequencing. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 150°C with 25°C hysteresis - protects against sustained overload or poor heatsinking in industrial ambient. |
Pinout & Package
The ISL8002BIRZ-T7A is housed in an 8-lead 2mm × 2mm TDFN package with exposed thermal pad (EPAD), RoHS-compliant, rated for -40°C to +85°C ambient operation. The EPAD must be soldered to PGND for optimal thermal performance (θJC = 7°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Input power supply | Bias source for internal LDO and power stage; requires ≥10µF ceramic decoupling close to pin. |
| EN | Enable control | Active-high logic input (1.4V threshold); pulls PHASE low via 100Ω when disabled for controlled discharge. |
| MODE | Operation mode select | Logic-high = PWM (fast transient response); logic-low = PFM (35µA IQ); internal 1MΩ pull-down prevents floating. |
| PG | Power-good indicator | Open-drain output with 5MΩ internal pull-up; asserts low during soft-start or if VOUT falls below 85% of regulation. |
| SS/TR | Soft-start & tracking control | Configurable ramp rate (0.1ms min) or ratiometric voltage tracking via external resistor divider. |
| FB | Feedback sensing | High-impedance input (±350nA bias) monitoring output divider; used for regulation, UVLO, and OVP detection. |
| PGND | Power/analog ground | Common return for power stage and analog circuitry; must connect directly to board GND plane. |
| PHASE | Switching node | Connects to inductor; carries high di/dt; discharged via 100Ω resistor during disable to prevent shoot-through. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| PMOS High-Side Switch | Eliminates boot capacitor requirement, reducing BOM count and layout complexity. |
| Selectably Optimized Light-Load Efficiency | PFM mode achieves 35µA quiescent current, extending battery life in always-on subsystems. |
| Integrated Output Tracking & Sequencing | SS/TR pin enables coincident or ratiometric startup/shutdown of multiple rails without external controllers. |
| Robust Protection Suite | Includes overcurrent (3.2A), short-circuit, thermal shutdown (150°C), UVLO, and output overvoltage lockout. |
| Internal Compensation | Fixed 27pF/200kΩ network removes need for external compensation components, simplifying design validation. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62097RRLR | 2A, 2.5MHz, 2.5V–5.5V VIN, 0.6V FB, but requires external compensation and lacks tracking capability. | No integrated output tracking or soft-start programming; needs external RC network for sequencing. | Choose when higher switching frequency is prioritized over ease of sequencing and minimal BOM count. |
| MP2143GJ-Z | 2A, 2MHz, 2.5V–5.5V VIN, 0.6V FB, integrated soft-start, but no PFM mode and only 92% peak efficiency. | Lacks PFM light-load optimization; higher quiescent current (250µA) reduces battery runtime. | Prefer for cost-sensitive industrial applications where battery life is not critical and fixed PWM operation suffices. |
Compared with TPS62097RRLR and MP2143GJ-Z, the ISL8002BIRZ-T7A uniquely combines internal compensation, programmable soft-start/tracking, and dual-mode (PFM/PWM) operation in a 2mm×2mm footprint-enabling faster time-to-market for space-constrained, battery-aware, and multi-rail designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum output current supported by the ISL8002BIRZ-T7A?
The ISL8002BIRZ-T7A supports up to 2A of continuous output current across its full operating temperature range (-40°C to +85°C). This rating is validated under typical thermal conditions using the recommended 2mm×2mm TDFN package with properly soldered EPAD to PGND. Peak current limit is 3.2A (typical), providing margin for transient loads without triggering protection.
Does the ISL8002BIRZ-T7A require an external boot capacitor?
No, the ISL8002BIRZ-T7A does not require an external boot capacitor because it integrates a PMOS high-side switch. Unlike NMOS-based buck regulators, the PMOS architecture eliminates the need for a charge pump or bootstrap circuit, reducing component count and layout complexity while improving reliability in compact designs.
How does the MODE pin affect efficiency and noise performance of the ISL8002BIRZ-T7A?
When the MODE pin is pulled low (PFM mode), the ISL8002BIRZ-T7A reduces switching frequency under light load, achieving 35µA quiescent current and maximizing battery life-but with higher output ripple. When pulled high (PWM mode), it maintains constant 2MHz operation, delivering lower noise, faster transient response, and tighter regulation-ideal for noise-sensitive analog circuits.
Can the ISL8002BIRZ-T7A be used for voltage tracking between multiple rails?
Yes, the ISL8002BIRZ-T7A supports precise voltage tracking via its SS/TR pin. By connecting an external resistor divider between VIN and SS/TR, and matching the ratio to a second regulator's feedback network, it enables coincident or ratiometric startup/shutdown-critical for FPGAs and processors requiring strict power sequencing per manufacturer specifications.
What thermal derating applies to the ISL8002BIRZ-T7A at elevated ambient temperatures?
The ISL8002BIRZ-T7A has a junction-to-case thermal resistance (θJC) of 7°C/W. At 85°C ambient with proper EPAD grounding and 2oz copper, it sustains 2A output continuously. Above 60°C ambient, output current should be linearly derated starting at ~1.8A to maintain junction temperature ≤125°C; full 2A operation requires ≤55°C ambient or enhanced airflow/heatsinking.
