Product details
Overview
ISL91108IIN-EVZ from Intersil is an evaluation board for the ISL91108IINZ fixed-output (3.3V) buck-boost regulator IC, supporting input voltages from 1.8V to 5.5V and delivering up to 1.6A DC output current with 2.6MHz switching frequency, 95% peak efficiency, and 27.5µA quiescent current - designed for compact power delivery in mobile RF power amplifier stages.
For engineers reviewing the ISL91108IIN-EVZ datasheet, ISL91108IIN-EVZ pinout, ISL91108IIN-EVZ application, or ISL91108IIN-EVZ equivalent, this page provides verified hardware configuration details, supported test conditions, component layout guidance, and direct links to the underlying ISL91108IINZ regulator's functional specifications and thermal performance data.
Technical Context
The ISL91108IIN-EVZ implements a fully populated reference design for the ISL91108IINZ WLCSP-20 buck-boost regulator, featuring a single 1µH inductor, dual 10µF input capacitors (PVIN), dual 22µF output capacitors (VOUT), and all necessary biasing for fixed 3.3V operation. It validates seamless buck-to-boost mode transitions under dynamic load and input voltage variation.
This board supports forced PWM and external clock synchronization (2.75–3.25MHz) via the MODE/SYNC pin, enables soft-start (2ms typical into buck mode), and incorporates short-circuit, over-temperature (150°C shutdown), and undervoltage lockout (1.775V rising threshold) protection - all directly inherited from the ISL91108IINZ IC.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the ISL91108IIN-EVZ?
The ISL91108IIN-EVZ is an evaluation board for the ISL91108IINZ buck-boost regulator IC. It provides a fully assembled, tested reference design to validate the IC's performance - including 3.3V fixed output, 1.8V–5.5V input operation, 1.6A DC capability, and seamless buck/boost mode transitions - under real-world PCB layout and thermal conditions. The ISL91108IIN-EVZ itself is not a semiconductor but a hardware platform for evaluating the ISL91108IINZ.
Does the ISL91108IIN-EVZ support adjustable output voltage?
No. The ISL91108IIN-EVZ is configured exclusively for the fixed 3.3V output version (ISL91108IINZ). Its schematic follows Figure 5 of FN8448: VOUT is directly connected to FB, with no external resistor divider. To evaluate adjustable output, the ISL91108IIA-EVZ board must be used - it supports the ISL91108IIAZ variant with external R1/R2 programming.
What external components are pre-installed on the ISL91108IIN-EVZ?
The ISL91108IIN-EVZ includes a 1µH shielded inductor (L1), two 10µF X5R ceramic capacitors on PVIN, two 22µF X5R ceramic capacitors on VOUT, and all required bias resistors and decoupling for EN, MODE/SYNC, and GND/PGND separation. No additional power components are needed to operate the ISL91108IINZ IC at its rated 1.6A DC output.
Can the ISL91108IIN-EVZ be synchronized to an external clock?
Yes. The ISL91108IIN-EVZ exposes the MODE/SYNC pin (D3), which accepts an external clock signal from 2.75MHz to 3.25MHz to force synchronous operation - reducing EMI in noise-sensitive RF applications. This functionality is inherited directly from the ISL91108IINZ IC and validated on the evaluation board per AN1903.
Where can I find the schematic and layout files for the ISL91108IIN-EVZ?
Schematic, bill of materials (BOM), and PCB layout files for the ISL91108IIN-EVZ are provided in Application Note AN1903 "ISL91108IIA-EVZ/ISL91108IIN-EVZ Evaluation Board User Guide", available on the Renesas website (formerly Intersil). The document includes test setup instructions, measurement procedures, and thermal imaging results specific to the ISL91108IIN-EVZ hardware.
