Product details
Overview
ISL9104AIRUDZ-T7A from Renesas (formerly Intersil) is a 500mA, 4.3MHz synchronous buck DC-DC converter optimized for low-voltage microprocessor power in space-constrained portable devices. It delivers a fixed 2.0V output from 2.7–6.0V input, features 20µA quiescent current in skip mode, 100% duty-cycle operation for <300mV dropout at 500mA, and integrated P/N-channel MOSFETs. It is used in WCDMA handsets and Li+-powered instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the ISL9104AIRUDZ-T7A datasheet, ISL9104AIRUDZ-T7A pinout, ISL9104AIRUDZ-T7A application, or ISL9104AIRUDZ-T7A equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, real-world design meaning of key specs, validated pin functions, confirmed alternatives with functional distinctions, and supply-chain support for production ramp-up.
Technical Context
The ISL9104AIRUDZ-T7A employs peak-current-mode PWM control with internal slope compensation for fast transient response and cycle-by-cycle current limiting. Its ultrasonic skip mode (enabled in ISL9104A variants) operates below audible range to eliminate noise in sensitive audio environments.
It integrates low-RDS(on) P-Channel (0.45Ω typ @ 3.6V) and N-Channel (0.4Ω typ @ 3.6V) MOSFETs, supports 100% duty-cycle low-dropout operation, and includes zero-cross detection for automatic PFM/PWM mode transition based on load current thresholds.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Current | Guaranteed 500mA continuous - supports core logic rails in mobile SoCs without external current boosting. |
| Switching Frequency | 4.3MHz ±0.7MHz - enables use of 1.0µH inductors and 4.7µF ceramic caps, reducing solution size to <0.5cm². |
| Quiescent Current | 20µA typical in skip mode - extends battery runtime in standby states of handheld devices. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7V to 6.0V - compatible with single Li+ cell (2.7–4.2V), three NiMH cells, or regulated 5V supplies. |
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.0V ±3% - precision-regulated for I/O or auxiliary rails requiring stable low-voltage bias. |
| Duty Cycle Max | 100% - maintains regulation down to VIN = VOUT + dropout (≤300mV @ 500mA), maximizing usable battery range. |
| Shutdown Current | 0.05µA typical - ensures near-zero leakage during system sleep, critical for always-on sensors. |
Pinout & Package
ISL9104AIRUDZ-T7A is housed in a RoHS-compliant 6-pin 1.6mm × 1.6mm µTDFN package with wettable flanks, optimized for high-density PCB layouts and automated optical inspection.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN (Pin 1) | Power input | Accepts 2.7–6.0V; requires local 4.7µF ceramic decoupling to minimize switching noise injection into source rail. |
| EN (Pin 2) | Logic enable | Active-high digital control; pulls FB low via internal bleeding FET when disabled to rapidly discharge output capacitance. |
| NC (Pin 3) | No-connect | Internally unconnected; must be left floating per datasheet - no tie-to-ground or pull-up allowed. |
| FB (Pin 4) | Feedback reference | Internally tied to 2.0V output for fixed-version operation; not configurable - bypasses external resistor divider. |
| GND (Pin 5) | Power ground | Primary return path for high-frequency switch current; must connect to solid ground plane beneath IC footprint. |
| SW (Pin 6) | Switch node | Connects to inductor high-side terminal; carries high di/dt square wave - requires shortest possible trace to minimize EMI. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultrasonic skip mode | Eliminates audible coil whine in portable audio systems by shifting PFM frequency above 20kHz (ISL9104A-specific). |
| Integrated MOSFETs | P-Channel (0.45Ω) + N-Channel (0.4Ω) switches reduce BOM count and improve efficiency vs. external-FET solutions. |
| Internal digital soft-start | 1.0ms controlled voltage ramp prevents inrush current and avoids brownout during power-up sequencing. |
| Output capacitor discharge | Active bleeding FET discharges output to <1% VOUT within 1ms of EN deactivation - meets safety and reset timing requirements. |
| Thermal shutdown | 130°C trip with 30°C hysteresis ensures reliable overtemperature recovery without latch-up or manual reset. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62231DRYR | 3.0V fixed output; 2.05–6.0V input; 3.6MHz switching; 18µA IQ in PFM mode | Not suitable for 2.0V rail requirement; requires external feedback resistors for adjustment | Select only if system requires 3.0V output and TI's ecosystem integration is prioritized. |
| RT8059GJ6 | 2.0V fixed output; 2.5–5.5V input; 3MHz switching; 25µA IQ in skip mode; no ultrasonic mode | Lacks ultrasonic skip mode - may generate audible noise in quiet environments | Valid alternative where acoustic performance is non-critical and lower input voltage ceiling (5.5V) is acceptable. |

FAQ
What is the output voltage of ISL9104AIRUDZ-T7A and is it adjustable?
The ISL9104AIRUDZ-T7A provides a factory-trimmed fixed 2.0V output with ±3% accuracy over temperature and line. It is not adjustable - the FB pin is internally connected to the output, eliminating the need for external resistor dividers. This simplifies layout and improves stability versus adjustable variants like ISL9104AIRUAZ-T.
Does ISL9104AIRUDZ-T7A support ultrasonic operation in skip mode?
Yes, ISL9104AIRUDZ-T7A is an ISL9104A-series device and includes ultrasonic skip mode, which shifts pulse-frequency modulation above 20kHz to prevent audible coil whine. This feature is explicitly enabled in all ISL9104A part numbers (marked with 'A' in the second position), distinguishing them from base ISL9104 variants.
What is the maximum continuous output current capability of ISL9104AIRUDZ-T7A?
The ISL9104AIRUDZ-T7A guarantees 500mA continuous output current across the full operating temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). This rating is validated with thermal derating applied per the 160°C/W θJA of the 1.6×1.6mm µTDFN package and assumes proper PCB copper pour and airflow.
How does the enable (EN) pin function on ISL9104AIRUDZ-T7A?
The EN pin on ISL9104AIRUDZ-T7A is active-high: driving it ≥1.4V enables regulation with internal soft-start; pulling it ≤0.4V disables the IC and activates the internal bleeding FET to discharge the output capacitor within 1ms. Leaving EN floating is prohibited - it must be actively driven or pulled to GND via a resistor.
What protection features are integrated into ISL9104AIRUDZ-T7A?
ISL9104AIRUDZ-T7A integrates overcurrent protection (OCP) via peak-current limiting, short-circuit protection (SCP) that reduces switching frequency under fault, thermal shutdown at 130°C with 30°C hysteresis, undervoltage lockout (UVLO) at 2.5V, and internal soft-start. All protections are fully autonomous and require no external components.
