Product details
Overview
ISL85005AFRZ-TK 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, and forced Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM) operation. It delivers up to 5A output current from 4.5V–18V input, features ±1% 0.8V feedback reference, and supports point-of-load regulation in embedded computing and battery-powered systems.
For engineers reviewing the ISL85005AFRZ-TK datasheet, ISL85005AFRZ-TK pinout, ISL85005AFRZ-TK application, or ISL85005AFRZ-TK equivalent, key selection criteria include its fixed-frequency CCM operation, 3.5µA SS charging current for adjustable startup ramp, integrated bootstrap diode with UV detection, thermal shutdown at 165°C, and 12-pin 3mm×4mm DFN package with EPAD.
Technical Context
The ISL85005AFRZ-TK implements current-mode control with internal slope compensation (550mV/µs at 500kHz) and an internal 5V LDO (VDD) derived from VIN. Its error amplifier provides 70dB gain and 5.5MHz open-loop bandwidth, supporting both internal compensation (COMP tied to AGND) and external network configurations.
Protection architecture includes high-side cycle-by-cycle current limit (6–9.5A), low-side forward/reverse overcurrent thresholds (8.6A / –3.3A), input UVLO (4.20–4.35V rising), input/output overvoltage lockout (19–20V VIN OVP), and thermal shutdown with 10°C hysteresis - all operating across –40°C to +125°C junction temperature range.
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 - enables single-chip conversion for mid-power point-of-load applications like FPGA core supplies. |
| Switching Frequency | Fixed 500kHz - balances efficiency, size, and EMI; eliminates need for external sync clock or frequency tuning. |
| Feedback Reference | 0.800V ±1% - enables precise output voltage setting (e.g., 1.2V, 1.8V, 3.3V, 5V) using standard resistor dividers. |
| Soft-Start Control | Programmable via SS pin with 3.5µA internal current source - allows controlled inrush limiting by selecting external capacitor value. |
| Thermal Protection | 165°C shutdown with 10°C hysteresis - prevents permanent damage during overload or poor heatsinking conditions. |
| Package | 12-pin 3mm×4mm DFN with exposed thermal pad - achieves θJC = 3°C/W for high-power density PCB layouts. |
Pinout & Package
ISL85005AFRZ-TK uses a 12-pin 3mm×4mm Dual Flat No-Lead (DFN) package with exposed thermal pad (EPAD) on underside for enhanced thermal performance. Pin numbering follows top-view orientation with pin 1 at top-left corner.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (SS) | Soft-start timing input | 3.5µA internal current source charges external capacitor; sets startup ramp time - floating defaults to 2.3ms. |
| 2 (PG) | Open-drain power-good indicator | Asserts high after VOUT reaches 85% of target (±3% hysteresis); 1.5ms delay ensures stable regulation before system enable. |
| 3 (EN) | Enable control input | Active-high logic: device enabled when >0.6V (with 60–140mV hysteresis); pulls down PHASE via internal 10kΩ resistor when disabled. |
| 4 (FB) | Feedback node | Connects to resistor divider; regulates output to 0.8V reference - supports wide output range with <10nA leakage. |
| 5 (COMP) | Error amplifier output | Internal compensation selected by tying to AGND; external network between COMP and FB enables custom loop response. |
| 6 (AGND) | Analog ground reference | Return path for control circuitry; must be connected to PCB ground plane - internally tied to PGND but not interchangeable. |
| 7,8 (PHASE) | Switch node | Drives external inductor; connects to sources of internal high-side and low-side MOSFETs - requires low-inductance layout. |
| 9,10 (VIN) | Main power input | Accepts 4.5–18V; requires local ceramic decoupling to PGND - powers internal FETs and LDO. |
| 11 (VDD) | Internal LDO output | 5V regulated supply (4.3–5.5V) for analog/digital blocks; bypass with 1µF capacitor - tie to VIN if VIN is 3–5.5V. |
| 12 (BOOT) | Bootstrap supply | Connects 0.1µF capacitor to PHASE - provides gate drive voltage for high-side N-MOSFET above VIN rail. |
| (EPAD) | Power ground / thermal pad | Internally connected to PGND; must be soldered to large copper area with multiple vias for thermal conduction and EMI reduction. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 5A/18V MOSFETs | Eliminates external switch selection and gate driver design; high-side RDS(ON) = 57–95mΩ, low-side = 40–75mΩ at 100mA. |
| Programmable soft-start | SS pin accepts external capacitor to set startup time - avoids input rail collapse and inductor saturation during power-up. |
| Integrated bootstrap diode | Reduces BOM count and improves reliability vs discrete bootstrap circuits; includes 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 - enables robust field operation. |
| Current-mode control | Enables fast transient response and inherent cycle-by-cycle current limiting; internal slope compensation stabilizes operation at duty cycles >50%. |

FAQ
What is the function of the SS pin on the ISL85005AFRZ-TK?
The SS (soft-start) pin on the ISL85005AFRZ-TK accepts an external capacitor to control startup ramp time. An internal 3.5µA current source charges the capacitor, linearly increasing the output voltage reference. With no capacitor, ISL85005AFRZ-TK defaults to a 2.3ms soft-start. This feature limits inrush current and prevents output overshoot during power-up sequences in sensitive systems.
Does the ISL85005AFRZ-TK support external frequency synchronization?
No, the ISL85005AFRZ-TK does not support external frequency synchronization. Unlike the ISL85005 variant, which uses pin 1 as SYNC/MODE, the ISL85005AFRZ-TK repurposes pin 1 as the SS pin and operates exclusively at a fixed 500kHz switching frequency. This simplifies design for applications where clock coordination is unnecessary and deterministic timing is preferred.
What is the maximum continuous output current rating of the ISL85005AFRZ-TK?
The ISL85005AFRZ-TK is rated for 5A continuous output current under recommended operating conditions (TJ ≤ +125°C, proper PCB thermal design). Its integrated high-side and low-side MOSFETs - with RDS(ON) values of 57–95mΩ and 40–75mΩ respectively - are thermally optimized for this load level in the 3mm×4mm DFN package with EPAD.
How does the ISL85005AFRZ-TK handle thermal overload conditions?
The ISL85005AFRZ-TK incorporates thermal shutdown protection that activates at +165°C junction temperature, with a 10°C hysteresis. When triggered, the device halts switching and holds the PHASE node low until temperature falls below +155°C, then automatically resumes operation. This safeguard prevents permanent damage during sustained overload or inadequate heatsinking in enclosed industrial environments.
Can the ISL85005AFRZ-TK operate in Diode Emulation Mode (DEM)?
No, the ISL85005AFRZ-TK operates exclusively in forced Continuous Conduction Mode (FCCM). DEM is available only on the ISL85005 variant (e.g., ISL85005FRZ-TK), which uses pin 1 as MODE control. The ISL85005AFRZ-TK's fixed FCCM operation ensures consistent ripple amplitude and predictable transient response across all load conditions - beneficial for noise-sensitive analog and RF subsystems.
