Product details
Overview
ISL85005AFRZ-T from Renesas Electronics is a monolithic synchronous buck regulator with integrated 5A/18V high-side and low-side MOSFETs, fixed 500kHz switching frequency, programmable soft-start via SS pin, forced CCM operation only, and ±1% 0.8V feedback reference-designed for point-of-load conversion in embedded computing and battery-powered systems requiring stable 5A output from 4.5V–18V inputs.
For engineers reviewing the ISL85005AFRZ-T datasheet, ISL85005AFRZ-T pinout, ISL85005AFRZ-T application, or ISL85005AFRZ-T equivalent, key selection criteria include its fixed-frequency current-mode control, internal 5V LDO (VDD), integrated bootstrap diode with undervoltage detection, thermal shutdown, and comprehensive overcurrent protections (high-side cycle-by-cycle, low-side forward/reverse).
Technical Context
The ISL85005AFRZ-T implements current-mode control with internal slope compensation and supports only forced Continuous Conduction Mode (FCCM), eliminating light-load discontinuous conduction. Its error amplifier features 5.5MHz open-loop bandwidth and 70dB gain, enabling stable regulation across 0–5A load range with internal or external compensation.
Protection architecture includes input UVLO (4.35V rising threshold), VIN overvoltage lockout (20V), output overvoltage protection (115% VOUT), high-side forward OCP (7.8A typical), low-side reverse OCP (−3.3A), and thermal shutdown at 165°C with 10°C hysteresis-ensuring robust operation in industrial and networking equipment.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5V to 18V - supports multi-cell Li-ion batteries and standard 5V/12V rails without external pre-regulation. |
| Output Current | 5A continuous - delivered via integrated 5A/18V N-channel MOSFETs with 95mΩ high-side and 75mΩ low-side RDS(on) at TJ = 125°C. |
| Switching Frequency | Fixed 500kHz - enables compact magnetics and predictable EMI profile; no external sync required. |
| Feedback Reference | 0.800V ±1% - sets output voltage via resistor divider; enables precise 1.2V–5V regulation with <±1% accuracy. |
| Soft-Start | Programmable via SS pin (3.5µA pull-up) - limits inrush current; default 2.3ms when SS floating. |
| Power-Good Output | Open-drain PG with 1.5ms delay and 85% VOUT threshold - provides reliable system power sequencing and fault indication. |
| Thermal Protection | 165°C shutdown with 10°C hysteresis - prevents damage during overload or poor heatsinking; automatic recovery on cooldown. |
Pinout & Package
ISL85005AFRZ-T uses a 12-pin 3mm × 4mm Dual Flat No-Lead (DFN) package with exposed thermal pad (EPAD) for enhanced heat dissipation. θJA = 41°C/W and θJC = 3°C/W enable high-power density designs in space-constrained applications.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (SS) | Soft-start control | 3.5µA internal current source charges external capacitor; determines ramp time of output voltage during startup. |
| 2 (PG) | Power-good indicator | Open-drain output asserts high after VOUT reaches 85% of target and remains stable for ≥1.5ms. |
| 3 (EN) | Enable input | Active-high logic; device enabled when voltage exceeds 0.6V (with 100mV hysteresis); pulls down PHASE when disabled. |
| 4 (FB) | Feedback node | Inverting input to error amplifier; regulates output by comparing divided VOUT against 0.8V reference. |
| 5 (COMP) | Compensation node | Connect to FB for external loop compensation; short to AGND selects internal compensation network. |
| 6 (AGND) | Analog ground | Reference for internal analog circuitry; must be tied to PCB ground plane and connected to PGND internally. |
| 7,8 (PHASE) | Switch node | Drives external output inductor; connects to drain of high-side MOSFET and source of low-side MOSFET. |
| 9,10 (VIN) | Main power input | Supplies gate drivers and high-side switch; requires local 10µF ceramic decoupling to PGND. |
| 11 (VDD) | Internal LDO output | 5V regulated supply for control circuitry; connect 1µF capacitor to ground; tie to VIN if VIN ≤ 5.5V. |
| 12 (BOOT) | Bootstrap supply | Floating rail for high-side gate driver; requires 0.1µF capacitor between BOOT and PHASE. |
| (EPAD) | Power ground / thermal pad | Source connection for low-side MOSFET and primary thermal path; must be soldered to large copper pour with multiple vias. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 5A/18V FETs | Eliminates external MOSFETs and gate drivers, reducing BOM count and layout complexity for 5A PoL designs. |
| Programmable soft-start | Prevents input inrush and output overshoot by controlling startup dV/dt via external capacitor on SS pin. |
| Forced CCM only | Ensures consistent ripple and EMI behavior across full load range-critical for noise-sensitive digital loads. |
| Integrated bootstrap diode | Removes need for external bootstrap diode while providing undervoltage detection to prevent shoot-through. |
| Comprehensive protection suite | Covers input UVLO/OVP, output OVP, high-side/low-side OCP (forward/reverse), and thermal shutdown-no external monitoring IC needed. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MPQ4572GQB-A | Fixed 500kHz, 5A, 4.5–36V input, integrated FETs, but lacks programmable soft-start and has higher RDS(on) (110/85mΩ). | Suitable for wider input ranges (up to 36V); less optimal for tight soft-start control in battery start-up. | Select MPQ4572GQB-A only when input exceeds 18V; verify thermal performance with higher conduction losses. |
| TPS54560BQPWPRQ1 | Adjustable 100–2500kHz, 5A, 3.5–60V input, external compensation only, no integrated soft-start pin. | Offers frequency flexibility and automotive AEC-Q100 qualification; requires external RC soft-start network. | Choose TPS54560BQPWPRQ1 for automotive-grade designs or when variable switching frequency is required for EMI tuning. |
Compared with MPQ4572GQB-A and TPS54560BQPWPRQ1, the ISL85005AFRZ-T delivers superior thermal performance (θJC = 3°C/W), precise soft-start control without external components, and optimized 4.5–18V operation-making it ideal for space-constrained industrial and embedded systems where input range and startup behavior are tightly bounded.

FAQ
What is the maximum output current capability of the ISL85005AFRZ-T?
The ISL85005AFRZ-T delivers up to 5A continuous output current using its integrated 5A/18V high-side and low-side N-channel MOSFETs. Performance is validated across −40°C to +125°C junction temperature with proper PCB thermal design (e.g., EPAD soldered to ≥4 cm² copper area). Peak current capability is limited by high-side forward OCP at 7.8A typical.
Does the ISL85005AFRZ-T support external frequency synchronization?
No, the ISL85005AFRZ-T does not support external frequency synchronization. It is the 'A' variant of the ISL85005 family and features a fixed 500kHz internal oscillator. The non-A version (e.g., ISL85005FRZ-T) includes a SYNC/MODE pin for synchronization and mode selection; ISL85005AFRZ-T replaces that pin with SS for programmable soft-start.
How is soft-start configured on the ISL85005AFRZ-T?
Soft-start on the ISL85005AFRZ-T is configured via the SS pin (Pin 1), which sources a precise 3.5µA current to charge an external capacitor to ground. Soft-start time tSS ≈ (VREF × CSS) / 3.5µA, where VREF = 0.8V. With SS left floating, the device defaults to 2.3ms soft-start. This eliminates need for external timing resistors or complex RC networks.
What protection features are built into the ISL85005AFRZ-T?
The ISL85005AFRZ-T integrates input UVLO (4.35V rising), VIN overvoltage lockout (20V), output overvoltage protection (115% VOUT), high-side cycle-by-cycle current limit (7.8A typical), low-side forward/reverse overcurrent protection (8.6A / −3.3A), and thermal shutdown at 165°C with 10°C hysteresis. All protections latch off or auto-recover per design-no external fault management circuitry required.
Can the ISL85005AFRZ-T operate in Diode Emulation Mode (DEM)?
No, the ISL85005AFRZ-T operates exclusively in Forced Continuous Conduction Mode (FCCM). DEM is supported only on the base ISL85005 (non-A) variant via the SYNC/MODE pin. The ISL85005AFRZ-T removes that functionality to dedicate Pin 1 to SS, ensuring deterministic ripple and EMI behavior across all load conditions-including light loads.
