Product details
Overview
ISL9104IRUJZ-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 fixed 2.8V 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 - enabling compact Li+-powered applications like WCDMA handsets and MP3 players.
For engineers reviewing the ISL9104IRUJZ-T7A datasheet, ISL9104IRUJZ-T7A pinout, ISL9104IRUJZ-T7A application, or ISL9104IRUJZ-T7A equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2.8V fixed output, 4.3MHz switching frequency for ultra-small external components, 20µA light-load IQ, thermal shutdown at 130°C, and µTDFN-6 package compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The ISL9104IRUJZ-T7A employs peak-current-mode PWM control with internal slope compensation for fast transient response and pulse-by-pulse current limiting. Its architecture integrates a 0.8V bandgap reference, transconductance error amplifier, and zero-cross sensing circuit to enable automatic transition between fixed-frequency PWM (heavy load) and ultrasonic-capable skip mode (light load).
It implements 100% duty-cycle low-dropout operation using an internal P-channel high-side switch, supports logic-controlled enable with <1µA shutdown current, and includes dedicated bleeding FET for rapid output capacitor discharge upon disable - all within a thermally enhanced 1.6×1.6mm µTDFN package with θJA = 160°C/W.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.8V ±3% over line/load/temperature - eliminates external feedback resistors and ensures stable core voltage for 2.8V I/O domains. |
| Switching Frequency | 4.3MHz (3.6–4.9MHz range) - enables use of 1.0µH inductors and 4.7µF ceramic capacitors, reducing total solution size to <0.5cm². |
| Max Output Current | 500mA guaranteed - sufficient to power ARM Cortex-M cores, baseband processors, and RF front-end ICs in handheld devices. |
| Quiescent Current | 20µA typical in skip mode - maximizes battery runtime during standby/sleep states in Li+-powered equipment. |
| Duty Cycle Range | 0–100% - supports dropout operation down to VIN = VOUT + IOUT × RDS(ON)_PCH (≤300mV at 500mA), extending usable battery range. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 130°C threshold with 30°C hysteresis - provides autonomous protection against sustained overload or poor heatsinking without external circuitry. |
| Enable Threshold | Logic-high >1.4V, logic-low <0.4V - compatible with standard CMOS GPIOs for precise power sequencing in multi-rail systems. |
Pinout & Package
The ISL9104IRUJZ-T7A is housed in a RoHS-compliant, Pb-free 6-pin µTDFN package (1.6mm × 1.6mm, 0.5mm height) with exposed thermal pad. Pin 1 is marked by a dot; top-view pinout follows JEDEC MO-229 standard.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN (Pin 1) | Input supply connection | Accepts 2.7–6.0V; requires local 4.7µF ceramic decoupling to minimize high-frequency noise injection into source rail. |
| EN (Pin 2) | Logic-enable control input | Active-high enable; pulls internal discharge FET when low to rapidly deplete output capacitance - critical for safe power-down sequencing. |
| NC (Pin 3) | No-connect terminal | Internally unconnected; must be left floating - not tied to GND or any other node to avoid parasitic coupling. |
| FB (Pin 4) | Feedback reference node | Internally connected to 2.8V divider output; no external components required - simplifies layout and improves regulation accuracy vs adjustable variants. |
| GND (Pin 5) | Power ground return | Primary return path for input/output currents and IC substrate; must connect directly to solid ground plane under package thermal pad. |
| SW (Pin 6) | Switching node | Drives external inductor; carries high di/dt square wave - requires short, wide trace routing away from sensitive analog nodes (e.g., FB, EN). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated P/N-channel MOSFETs | 0.45Ω/0.40Ω typical RDS(ON) at 3.6V - eliminates external power switches, reduces BOM count, and improves full-load efficiency up to 93%. |
| Digital soft-start | 1.0ms controlled ramp - prevents inrush current into output capacitors, avoiding input rail collapse and system brownouts during power-up. |
| Output capacitor bleed function | Internal N-channel discharge FET - actively drains output to <100mV within 1ms of EN deactivation, meeting fast-power-cycle requirements in mobile UIs. |
| Overcurrent & short-circuit protection | Peak current limit at 1.0A (typ) + SCP comparator monitoring FB voltage - protects against sustained overload and hard shorts without external sensing components. |
| Ultrasonic skip mode | Not implemented - ISL9104IRUJZ-T7A is non-ultrasonic variant (per Ordering Information table); skip mode operates below 20kHz but may generate audible noise. |

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, 2.0–6.0V input, 4.5MHz switching, 22µA IQ - differs in output voltage and slightly higher min input. | Suitable for 3.0V logic rails; less optimal for 2.8V I/O domains requiring tighter voltage matching. | Select if system uses 3.0V peripherals and requires TI's WEBENCH design support. |
| RT8059GJ6 | 2.8V fixed output, 2.5–5.5V input, 3.0MHz switching, 25µA IQ - lower frequency increases inductor size; wider input range improves cold-temperature startup. | Better suited for industrial temperature range (–40°C to +105°C) and applications needing extended low-VIN operation. | Choose when operating below 2.7V input or requiring extended junction temperature rating beyond +85°C. |
Compared with TPS62231DRYR and RT8059GJ6, the ISL9104IRUJZ-T7A offers superior 2.8V output accuracy (±3% vs ±4%), smaller solution footprint due to 4.3MHz operation, and faster load transient recovery - making it optimal for space- and efficiency-critical 2.8V mobile power rails.

FAQ
What is the output voltage of the ISL9104IRUJZ-T7A and is it adjustable?
The ISL9104IRUJZ-T7A provides a fixed 2.8V output with ±3% accuracy over line, load, and temperature. It is not adjustable - the FB pin is internally connected to the 2.8V divider, eliminating external resistors. This differs from the ISL9104IRUAZ-T (adjustable) variant, which requires external R1/R2 to set VOUT. The ISL9104IRUJZ-T7A simplifies design for 2.8V I/O rails in mobile SoCs.
Does the ISL9104IRUJZ-T7A support ultrasonic skip mode to prevent audible noise?
No, the ISL9104IRUJZ-T7A does not support ultrasonic skip mode. Per the Ordering Information table in FN6829 Rev 5.00, only ISL9104A-series parts (e.g., ISL9104AIRUJZ-T) include the "YES" ultrasonic function flag. The ISL9104IRUJZ-T7A operates in standard skip mode, which may produce audible coil whine under light loads - verify acoustic requirements in final system integration.
What is the maximum continuous output current capability of the ISL9104IRUJZ-T7A?
The ISL9104IRUJZ-T7A guarantees 500mA continuous output current across –40°C to +85°C ambient, validated per Electrical Specifications on page 4 of FN6829. Peak current limit is 1.0A (typ), but sustained operation above 500mA risks thermal shutdown unless board-level thermal management (e.g., copper pour, airflow) exceeds θJA = 160°C/W. Derate linearly above +60°C ambient.
How does the ISL9104IRUJZ-T7A handle power-down sequencing?
When the EN pin is driven low, the ISL9104IRUJZ-T7A disables both internal MOSFETs and activates an internal bleeding FET connected to the SW node, discharging the output capacitor to <100mV within 1ms. This ensures rapid, controlled power-down essential for USB OTG, camera shutter, or multi-rail SoC sequencing - no external discharge circuitry is needed.
What package type and thermal characteristics does the ISL9104IRUJZ-T7A use?
The ISL9104IRUJZ-T7A uses a 6-pin µTDFN package (1.6mm × 1.6mm, 0.5mm height) with exposed thermal pad. Its thermal resistance is θJA = 160°C/W (typical, per page 4), requiring direct connection of the pad to a solid ground plane for effective heat dissipation. Junction temperature must remain ≤125°C for reliable operation; thermal shutdown triggers at 130°C.
