Product details
Overview
ISL91106AIIAZ-T from Renesas (formerly Intersil) is a fully synchronous 4-switch buck-boost DC/DC regulator delivering up to 2.1A output current at 3.3V with 1.8V–5.5V input range, 2.5MHz switching frequency, and 45µA quiescent current-designed for smartphone power amplifiers requiring seamless mode transition and bypass operation.
For engineers reviewing the ISL91106AIIAZ-T datasheet, ISL91106AIIAZ-T pinout, ISL91106AIIAZ-T application, or ISL91106AIIAZ-T equivalent, key selection criteria include verified 4.2A internal switch rating, WLCSP-16 package compatibility, fixed/adjustable output support (1V–5.2V), bypass mode enablement, and thermal/overcurrent protection behavior under dynamic load transitions.
Technical Context
The ISL91106AIIAZ-T implements automatic, disturbance-free transitions between buck, boost, and pass-through modes using real-time voltage comparison and gate drive sequencing-no external control logic required. Its 4-switch architecture eliminates body-diode conduction losses and enables bidirectional regulation without polarity reversal.
It supports three operating modes via MODE1/MODE2 pins: forced PWM (for noise-sensitive systems), auto-mode (for efficiency optimization), and bypass mode (direct PVIN-to-VOUT path with <100mΩ RDS(on)). Undervoltage lockout, overtemperature shutdown, and cycle-by-cycle overcurrent protection are integrated and active across all modes.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 1.8V to 5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion, USB VBUS, and multi-rail battery systems without pre-regulation |
| Output Current (3.3V) | 2.1A - validated at PVIN = 2.8V, enabling full load in low-VIN smartphone PA bias rails |

Pinout & Package
ISL91106AIIAZ-T uses a 16-ball Wafer-Level Chip-Scale Package (WLCSP) with 0.4mm pitch, optimized for thermal dissipation through bottom-side solder connections to PCB copper planes.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| PVIN | Main power input | Accepts 1.8V–5.5V; supplies internal LDOs and high-side switches; requires local 10µF ceramic decoupling |
| VIN | Bias supply input | Provides gate drive and control circuitry power; must be ≥PVIN – 0.3V; tied to PVIN if unused |
| VOUT | Regulated output | Delivers up to 2.1A; connects to output capacitor bank and load; feedback sensed at FB pin |
| FB | Feedback input | Senses output voltage divider ratio; open for fixed 3.3V/3.4V operation; sets adjustable output per R1/R2 equation |
| MODE1, MODE2 | Operating mode select | Digital inputs defining bypass, PWM, or auto-mode; require defined logic levels (0/0 = disable, 0/1 = bypass, etc.) |
| LX1, LX2 | Switch node outputs | Connect to external 1µH inductor; carry high-frequency AC current; require tight layout and ground stitching |
| GND / PGND | Analog & power ground | Separate AGND (control) and PGND (switching) pins minimize noise coupling into feedback path |
| EN | Enable input | Active-high logic control; internal pull-down; allows system-level power sequencing and deep-sleep entry |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck-boost regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ISL91107IRZ-T | Higher 3A output capability; 3.2MHz switching; improved light-load efficiency (25µA IQ); same WLCSP-16 package | Targeted for next-gen 5G mmWave PA bias where higher peak current and tighter ripple specs apply | Preferred for new designs requiring extended output current headroom and lower EMI |
| TPS63020DSJR | 2A output; 2.5MHz; 25µA IQ; 2.5V–5.5V input; QFN-10 package (3mm × 3mm) | Requires external compensation; lacks bypass mode; larger footprint but offers wider VIN and better thermal derating | Consider when board space allows larger package and bypass functionality is not required |
Compared with ISL91106AIIAZ-T, ISL91107IRZ-T provides higher current and lower IQ in identical packaging-ideal for design refreshes-while TPS63020DSJR trades bypass capability and size for broader input range and simplified external component count in less space-constrained applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output current of the ISL91106AIIAZ-T at 3.3V output?
The ISL91106AIIAZ-T delivers up to 2.1A continuous output current when configured for 3.3V output with PVIN = 2.8V, as validated in the official datasheet FN8679. This rating assumes proper PCB thermal design with ≥4cm² of 1oz copper on inner layers and ambient temperature ≤40°C. Derating applies above 60°C ambient or with reduced copper area.
Does the ISL91106AIIAZ-T support adjustable output voltage, and what is the supported range?
Yes, the ISL91106AIIAZ-T supports adjustable output voltage from 1.0V to 5.2V using an external resistor divider connected to the FB pin. Fixed 3.3V and 3.4V versions are also available. The feedback reference voltage is 0.6V with ±1% tolerance, enabling precise rail generation for RF power amplifiers and mixed-signal subsystems.
How does bypass mode operate in the ISL91106AIIAZ-T, and what is its typical resistance?
In bypass mode (MODE1=0, MODE2=1), the ISL91106AIIAZ-T enables a low-impedance path from PVIN to VOUT using internal FETs, achieving <100mΩ total resistance. This minimizes dropout and power loss during system sleep, reducing quiescent consumption to <10µA while maintaining regulated output voltage within ±2%.
What package type and dimensions does the ISL91106AIIAZ-T use, and is it RoHS-compliant?
The ISL91106AIIAZ-T uses a 16-ball Wafer-Level Chip-Scale Package (WLCSP) measuring 2.15mm × 1.51mm with 0.4mm ball pitch. It is lead-free and RoHS-compliant per J-STD-609 Category 3, qualified to MSL Level 3, and compatible with standard Pb-free reflow profiles.
Is the ISL91106AIIAZ-T pin-compatible with the ISL91106IINZ or ISL91106IIQZ?
Yes, the ISL91106AIIAZ-T shares identical pinout, package footprint, and electrical interface with ISL91106IINZ and ISL91106IIQZ. All three are WLCSP-16 devices with matching pin assignments and thermal pad configuration-enabling drop-in replacement where higher 4.2A switch rating and 2.1A output capability are required.
