Product details
Overview
The ISL85003DEMO1Z from Renesas Electronics is a demonstration board for the ISL85003 3A synchronous buck regulator, configured with a fixed 5V output, 4.5V–18V input range, and 500kHz switching frequency. It enables rapid evaluation of point-of-load power delivery in industrial and embedded systems requiring compact, high-efficiency DC/DC conversion.
For engineers reviewing the ISL85003DEMO1Z datasheet, ISL85003DEMO1Z pinout, ISL85003DEMO1Z application, or ISL85003DEMO1Z equivalent, this board supports quick validation of transient response, efficiency mapping, external synchronization up to 2MHz, and mode selection (PWM/DCM) under real load conditions.
Technical Context
The ISL85003DEMO1Z implements current-mode control with internal compensation and supports both PWM and DCM operation via MODE pin configuration. Its onboard ISL85003FRZ IC operates in a 4×3mm DFN-12 package and integrates BOOT, PHASE, EN, PG, FB, COMP, and SS/EN dual-function pins.
The board features fixed 5V output set by an external resistor divider (R1 = 301kΩ, R2 = 57.6kΩ), 4.7µH power inductor (Würth 744311470), and low-ESR ceramic output capacitors totaling 54µF (C1, C2, C5, C6, C11). EN is hard-wired to VIN via R7 for always-on operation.
Key Specifications

FAQ
What is the primary function of the ISL85003DEMO1Z?
The ISL85003DEMO1Z is a dedicated evaluation platform for the ISL85003 3A synchronous buck regulator. It provides a fully assembled, tested circuit with fixed 5V output, enabling engineers to validate efficiency, thermal performance, and dynamic response without designing a custom PCB. The ISL85003DEMO1Z includes all critical passive components and interface points for probing key nodes like VIN, VOUT, EN, MODE, and PG.
Can the output voltage of the ISL85003DEMO1Z be adjusted?
Yes - although the ISL85003DEMO1Z is preset to 5V, its output voltage is set by an external resistor divider (R1 and R2) connected to the FB pin. Replacing R1 (301kΩ) and/or R2 (57.6kΩ) allows adjustment per the ISL85003 datasheet's feedback equation. The board includes footprint space and test points to support rework, and AN1930 provides detailed guidance on scaling VOUT using the internal 0.6V reference.
How does the ISL85003DEMO1Z support external synchronization?
The ISL85003DEMO1Z supports external clock synchronization up to 2MHz via the SYNC pin on the ISL85003FRZ IC. Though not pre-routed as a standard header, the SYNC signal is accessible at U1 Pin 13 (EP pad is ground; Pin 13 is unused in default layout but documented in the ISL85003 datasheet). Users must add a series capacitor and routing to inject the external clock - confirming compatibility with the ISL85003's sync architecture before implementation.
What is the role of the MODE pin on the ISL85003DEMO1Z?
On the ISL85003DEMO1Z, the MODE pin (U1 Pin 3) is pulled to VCC via R6 (200kΩ), configuring the ISL85003FRZ for forced PWM operation. Tying MODE to GND switches the regulator to CCM mode. This pin enables direct comparison of ripple, efficiency, and light-load behavior between modulation schemes - a key capability for optimizing POL performance in noise-sensitive applications.
Does the ISL85003DEMO1Z include soft-start functionality?
No - the ISL85003DEMO1Z uses the base ISL85003 (not ISL85003A) and lacks programmable soft-start. Its EN pin is tied directly to VIN via R7, resulting in immediate startup with no controlled ramp. For adjustable soft-start, users should evaluate the ISL85003ADEMO1Z variant, which substitutes the ISL85003AFRZ and adds SS pin support with C10 and R6 configuration options.
