Product details
Overview
ISL95822HRZ from Renesas Electronics (formerly Intersil) is a dual-phase PWM voltage regulator IC designed for Intel VR12.5™ and VR12.6™ CPU core power delivery, featuring two integrated gate drivers, SVID serial interface, 0.5% system voltage accuracy over temperature, and R3™ adaptive ripple regulation architecture. It supports 1- or 2-phase configuration, DCR/resistor current sensing, and remote differential voltage sensing for notebook and desktop motherboard VRMs.
For engineers reviewing the ISL95822HRZ datasheet, ISL95822HRZ pinout, ISL95822HRZ application, or ISL95822HRZ equivalent, key selection criteria include VR12.5/VR12.6 compliance, SVID bus timing, programmable ICCMAX and slew rate, R3™ transient response behavior, and dual-gate-driver thermal management in high-density VRM layouts.
Technical Context
The ISL95822HRZ implements Intersil's Robust Ripple Regulator (R3™) technology, enabling variable switching frequency during load transients and faster transient settling versus conventional fixed-frequency PWM modulators. Its SVID interface handles dynamic voltage identification, phase control, and telemetry reporting per Intel VR12.5/VR12.6 specifications.
It integrates two high-side/low-side gate drivers per phase, supports lossless DCR current sensing with single NTC thermistor compensation, and provides programmable VBOOT, ICCMAX, and voltage transition slew rate to meet CPU power state transitions (e.g., C-state entry/exit) without overshoot or undershoot violations.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Regulation Standard | Fully compliant with Intel VR12.5™ and VR12.6™ specifications for CPU core voltage sequencing and telemetry. |
| Phase Configuration | Configurable as 1-phase or 2-phase via external resistor selection; enables flexible VRM layout scaling for 15W–65W CPU power ranges. |
| Voltage Accuracy | ±0.5% system accuracy over full temperature range; ensures stable core voltage under thermal stress in thin-client and gaming desktops. |
| Current Sensing | Supports both DCR-based (lossless, NTC-compensated) and precision shunt resistor methods; eliminates need for separate current-sense amplifiers. |
| SVID Interface | 4-wire serial bus (CLK, DATA, ALERT#, RESET#) for bidirectional communication with CPU; enables real-time VID updates and fault reporting. |
| Protection Features | Includes overcurrent protection (OCP), Power-Good output, diode braking, and adaptive body diode conduction time reduction to limit shoot-through losses. |
Pinout & Package
ISL95822HRZ is housed in a 48-pin QFN package (7mm × 7mm, 0.5mm pitch) with exposed thermal pad for enhanced power dissipation in compact VRM designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Input power supply rail | Accepts 5V–24V input; powers internal LDOs and gate drivers; requires local bulk and ceramic decoupling. |
| VOUT_SENSE+ | Remote voltage sense positive | Differential input for precise core voltage feedback at CPU pads; rejects PCB IR drop in high-current VRMs. |
| VOUT_SENSE− | Remote voltage sense negative | Paired with VOUT_SENSE+ for Kelvin sensing; improves regulation accuracy under dynamic load steps. |
| SVID_CLK | SVID serial clock | Master-driven clock line (up to 2MHz) synchronizing SVID command transfers between CPU and ISL95822HRZ. |
| SVID_DATA | SVID serial data I/O | Bidirectional data line for VID codes, phase enable/disable, OCP thresholds, and telemetry readbacks. |
| PGOOD | Power-Good status output | Open-drain signal asserted after output stabilizes within ±1% of target; used for CPU reset release and system power sequencing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| R3™ Adaptive Modulation | Variable switching frequency during load transients reduces output voltage deviation and improves settling time vs. fixed-frequency PWM. |
| Programmable ICCMAX | Resistor-set current limit threshold enables precise OCP tuning for different CPU TDPs without firmware changes. |
| Adjustable Slew Rate | Configurable voltage transition rate prevents excessive dI/dt-induced noise during CPU P-state transitions. |
| Diode Braking | Active low-side FET control during light-load discontinuous conduction mode minimizes output overshoot at load release. |
| DCR Temp Compensation | Single NTC thermistor input enables accurate inductor DCR resistance tracking across −10°C to +125°C ambient. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-phase VR controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IR35201MTRPBF | Supports VR12/VR12.5 only; lacks VR12.6 telemetry extensions and R3™ adaptive frequency modulation. | Targeted at legacy platforms; does not support Intel's enhanced SVID commands for VR12.6 dynamic power states. | Select ISL95822HRZ when VR12.6 compliance, faster transient response, or improved light-load efficiency are required. |
| RT8803AZSP | Single-phase only; no dual-phase gate drivers; uses analog VID instead of SVID interface. | Designed for lower-power mobile CPUs (≤35W); incompatible with VR12.5/VR12.6 protocol stack and phase management. | Choose ISL95822HRZ for dual-phase, SVID-based, VR12.5/VR12.6-compliant CPU power delivery in performance-class systems. |
Compared with IR35201MTRPBF and RT8803AZSP, the ISL95822HRZ uniquely delivers VR12.6 compliance, R3™ adaptive modulation for sub-10µs transients, and integrated dual-phase gate drivers-enabling higher power density, tighter voltage regulation, and future-proof SVID feature support in next-gen client platforms.

FAQ
What CPU generations and socket types is the ISL95822HRZ validated for?
The ISL95822HRZ is fully validated for Intel 3rd–6th generation Core processors (Ivy Bridge through Skylake) supporting VR12.5 and VR12.6 specifications, including LGA1155, LGA1150, and LGA1151 sockets. It meets all SVID timing, VID code mapping, and telemetry requirements defined in Intel's VR12.5/VR12.6 documentation. The ISL95822HRZ does not support AMD platforms or Intel's newer VR13/VR14 standards.
Does the ISL95822HRZ require external current-sense resistors?
No-the ISL95822HRZ supports lossless DCR current sensing using the inductor's DC resistance, with optional single NTC thermistor compensation for temperature drift. External shunt resistors are optional and only needed if higher absolute current accuracy is required beyond DCR-based sensing. The ISL95822HRZ includes dedicated pins and internal circuitry for both methods, eliminating mandatory external resistors in most notebook and desktop VRM designs.
How does the R3™ technology in ISL95822HRZ improve transient response compared to standard PWM controllers?
R3™ technology in the ISL95822HRZ dynamically adjusts switching frequency during load transients-increasing frequency for faster response to sudden load steps and decreasing it at light loads to improve efficiency. This yields <10µs voltage recovery time and reduced output deviation versus fixed-frequency controllers. The ISL95822HRZ achieves this without external compensation components, directly enhancing CPU stability during AVX or Turbo Boost events.
Can the ISL95822HRZ be configured for single-phase operation, and how is that done?
Yes-the ISL95822HRZ supports both 1-phase and 2-phase configurations via external resistor selection on the PHASE_SEL pin. A grounded resistor configures dual-phase operation; an open or high-impedance connection configures single-phase. This flexibility allows reuse of the same ISL95822HRZ across multiple platform tiers-from entry-level notebooks (1-phase) to high-end desktops (2-phase)-reducing design complexity and inventory SKUs.
What thermal management features does the ISL95822HRZ include for high-power VRM designs?
The ISL95822HRZ includes adaptive body diode conduction time reduction, diode braking for overshoot suppression, and an exposed thermal pad in its 48-pin QFN package to facilitate direct PCB copper pour attachment. These features collectively reduce MOSFET switching losses and junction temperature rise during sustained high-current operation. The ISL95822HRZ also supports remote voltage sensing to maintain regulation accuracy despite localized VRM heating, ensuring reliable CPU voltage delivery under thermal stress.
