Product details
Overview
ISL95829AIRTZ from Renesas Electronics is a 3-phase voltage regulator controller with integrated gate drivers, designed for Intel IMVP9 CPU main rail power delivery. It supports 1-/2-/3-phase configurations, operates from 4.5V–25V input, delivers 0.5% system accuracy over temperature, and implements R3™ modulator technology for fast transient response and Diode Emulation mode at light load.
For engineers reviewing the ISL95829AIRTZ datasheet, ISL95829AIRTZ pinout, ISL95829AIRTZ application, or ISL95829AIRTZ equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, confirmed pin functions, validated alternative controllers for IMVP9 VR designs, and supply-chain-ready availability details.
Technical Context
The ISL95829AIRTZ implements Renesas' Robust Ripple Regulator (R3™) modulator architecture, enabling variable switching frequency (up to 750kHz), adaptive body diode conduction time reduction, and acoustic noise reduction via decay slew rate limiting. It uses SVID serial bus for CPU communication and supports both DCR-based and precision resistor-based current sensing.
It integrates two high-side/low-side gate drivers, supports remote differential voltage sensing, programmable VBOOT, ICCMAX, voltage slew rate, and PSYS monitoring in alternate VSYS mode. The controller meets Intel PS4 low-power state requirements and is RoHS-compliant in a 4×4 mm TQFN package.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar multi-phase VR controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ISL95869IRZ | Same R3™ architecture, identical pinout and SVID interface, but supports 3-phase only (no 1-/2-phase config); includes additional PSYS analog monitor path. | Targeted for higher-TDP desktop/server VRMs where full 3-phase operation is mandatory and PSYS analog reporting is required. | Select ISL95869IRZ when PSYS analog monitoring is needed and phase flexibility is not required. |
| RTQ2136B-QA | 3-phase controller with integrated drivers, but uses PWM (not SVID) interface; lacks DCR temperature compensation and PSYS support. | Suitable for non-Intel platforms (e.g., AMD or custom SoC) where SVID compliance is unnecessary and cost-sensitive BOMs are prioritized. | Choose RTQ2136B-QA for non-IMVP9 designs where SVID, PSYS, or NTC-based DCR compensation are not required. |
Compared with ISL95829AIRTZ, ISL95869IRZ offers tighter PSYS analog fidelity but sacrifices phase configurability, while RTQ2136B-QA trades SVID compatibility and IMVP9-specific features for lower cost and simpler interface - making ISL95829AIRTZ the optimal choice for flexible, standards-compliant IMVP9 notebook and ultrabook VRMs.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the ISL95829AIRTZ in an Intel platform?
The ISL95829AIRTZ serves as the main voltage regulator controller for Intel IMVP9-compliant CPUs, managing power delivery across 1-, 2-, or 3-phase configurations. It interprets SVID commands from the CPU, regulates output voltage with ±0.5% accuracy, and drives external MOSFETs via integrated gate drivers. Its R3™ modulator and Diode Emulation mode ensure fast transient response and high light-load efficiency - all critical for modern notebook and ultrabook power architectures.
Does the ISL95829AIRTZ support remote voltage sensing?
Yes, the ISL95829AIRTZ supports differential remote voltage sensing via dedicated VOUT_SENSE+ and VOUT_SENSE− pins. This enables Kelvin-style measurement at the CPU socket, compensating for PCB trace resistance and ensuring accurate regulation at the point of load. The feature is essential for maintaining tight voltage tolerance under high-current, high-dI/dt conditions typical in IMVP9 systems.
What current sensing methods does the ISL95829AIRTZ support?
The ISL95829AIRTZ supports two validated current sensing methods: lossless inductor DCR sensing (with optional NTC thermistor compensation via NTC_IN) and precision resistor sensing. Both are programmable and provide accurate real-time current feedback for overcurrent protection, phase shedding, and thermal management - without requiring external op-amps or complex signal conditioning.
Is the ISL95829AIRTZ compatible with Intel PS4 low-power state requirements?
Yes, the ISL95829AIRTZ is explicitly designed to meet Intel PS4 specification requirements. It achieves ultra-low quiescent current in PS4 state, enabling platform-level deep-sleep functionality. This capability is confirmed in Renesas documentation and is essential for extending battery life in ultrabooks and tablets during standby or connected standby modes.
What package type and footprint does the ISL95829AIRTZ use?
The ISL95829AIRTZ uses a 32-pin, 4 mm × 4 mm, 0.5 mm pitch TQFN package with exposed thermal pad (Renesas package code: RTZ). This RoHS-compliant package supports high-density layout, efficient thermal dissipation, and automated assembly. Pinout is fully documented in the ISL95869/ISL95829 family datasheet and matches industry-standard routing practices for multi-phase VRMs.
