Product details
Overview
ISL9123IIN-EVZ from Renesas Electronics is an evaluation board designed to validate the ISL9123IINZ ultra-low IQ buck regulator in WLCSP packaging. It supports input voltages from 1.8V to 5.5V, delivers up to 600mA output current, and enables I²C-programmable output voltage (0.4V–5.375V), slew rate, and operation modes including Auto-PFM and Forced PWM.
For engineers reviewing the ISL9123IIN-EVZ datasheet, ISL9123IIN-EVZ pinout, ISL9123IIN-EVZ application, or ISL9123IIN-EVZ equivalent, this board provides direct access to register-level control (e.g., VSET at 0x11, CONV_CFG at 0x12), Kelvin-sense efficiency measurement points, and configurable EN/I²C interfaces for rapid characterization of buck regulation behavior under real-world load and thermal conditions.
Technical Context
The ISL9123IIN-EVZ implements a dedicated hardware platform for the ISL9123IINZ IC, featuring optimized PCB layout with inner-layer ground planes, short high-current loops, and isolated signal routing for SCL/SDA/EN to prevent noise coupling. It integrates test points (TP1–TP8), multi-pin headers (J1–J5), and jumper-configurable enable logic (J4) to support both bench validation and system-level integration testing.
Board-level functionality includes I²C-based dynamic voltage scaling via DVSRATE configuration, soft-start and soft-discharge control (EN_AND/Soft DSCHG bits), and fault monitoring through INTFLG_REG (0x03). The platform supports full register read/write operations-including RO_REG1 (0x02) for chip ID verification-and accommodates auxiliary VSW probing (TP2) for ISL9123/A variants.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the ISL9123IIN-EVZ?
The ISL9123IIN-EVZ is an evaluation board specifically built to characterize the ISL9123IINZ buck regulator. It provides physical access to all critical signals-VIN, VOUT, LX, EN, SCL, SDA-and enables full I²C register control, efficiency measurement via Kelvin sensing, and operational mode validation (Auto-PFM, Forced PWM) without custom PCB design. ISL9123IIN-EVZ is not a standalone power solution but a test platform for the underlying IC.
Which IC does the ISL9123IIN-EVZ evaluate?
The ISL9123IIN-EVZ evaluates the ISL9123IINZ - a 1.8V-output, ultra-low IQ buck regulator in wafer-level chip-scale package (WLCSP). It is explicitly listed in the Bill of Materials (Page 10) and referenced in the ordering table (Page 13) as the target device. The board's silk screen and layout are optimized for this specific variant, not the ISL9123A or ISL9123B versions.
Does the ISL9123IIN-EVZ support dynamic voltage scaling (DVS)?
Yes, the ISL9123IIN-EVZ supports DVS through the ISL9123IINZ's I²C interface. Using the evaluation software, users can modify the VSET register (0x11) to change output voltage and configure the DVSRATE field in CONV_CFG (0x12) to set the ramp-up slew rate. This allows precise control over voltage transitions during processor core scaling or low-power state entry/exit sequences.
Can the ISL9123IIN-EVZ be used to measure efficiency accurately?
Yes, the ISL9123IIN-EVZ includes dedicated Kelvin sense connections (J1 S+/S− for VIN, J2 S+/S− for VOUT) that eliminate trace resistance errors during input/output voltage measurement. When paired with a precision bench supply and electronic load, these terminals enable high-fidelity efficiency calculation across load and input voltage ranges - a capability confirmed in Section 1.2 and Figure 2 of the manual.
Is the ISL9123IIN-EVZ compatible with ISL9123A or ISL9123B devices?
No - while the ISL9123xIIx-EVZ platform name suggests family-wide use, the ISL9123IIN-EVZ board is physically and electrically configured for the ISL9123IINZ only. Its silk screen, BOM (U1 = ISL9123IINZ), and default output voltage setting (1.8V) are specific to that variant. ISL9123A/B require separate boards (e.g., ISL9123AIIC-EVZ or ISL9123BII9-EVZ) due to differing VOUT ranges and register behaviors (e.g., Soft DSCHG is ISL9123/B-only).
