sense resistor), the regular boot refresh circuit will still be
active.
Current Sinking
The ISL6545 incorporates a MOSFET shoot-through
protection method which allows a converter to sink current
as well as source current. Care should be exercised when
designing a converter with the ISL6545 when it is known that
the converter may sink current.
When the converter is sinking current, it is behaving as a
boost converter that is regulating its input voltage. This
means that the converter is boosting current into the V
rail, which supplies the bias voltage to the ISL6545. If there
is nowhere for this current to go, such as to other distributed
loads on the V
device, or other methods, the capacitance on the V
will absorb the current. This situation will allow voltage level
of the V
boosted to a level that exceeds the maximum voltage rating
of the ISL6545, then the IC will experience an irreversible
failure and the converter will no longer be operational.
Ensuring that there is a path for the current to follow other
than the capacitance on the rail will prevent this failure
mode.
Application Guidelines
Layout Considerations
As in any high frequency switching converter, layout is very
important. Switching current from one power device to another
can generate voltage transients across the impedances of the
interconnecting bond wires and circuit traces. These
interconnecting impedances should be minimized by using
wide, short printed circuit traces. The critical components
should be located as close together as possible, using ground
plane construction or single point grounding.
Figure 7 shows the critical power components of the converter.
To minimize the voltage overshoot, the interconnecting wires
indicated by heavy lines should be part of a ground or power
plane in a printed circuit board. The components shown should

gate and source connections from the ISL6545 must be sized
to handle up to 1A peak current.
Figure 8 shows the circuit traces that require additional
layout consideration. Use single point and ground plane
construction for the circuits shown. Minimize any leakage

as close as practical to the BOOT and PHASE pins. All
components used for feedback compensation (not shown)
should be located as close to the IC as practical.
Feedback Compensation
This section highlights the design consideration for a
voltage-mode controller requiring external compensation. To
address a broad range of applications, a type-3 feedback
network is recommended, as shown in the top part of
Figure 9.
Figure 9 also highlights the voltage-mode control loop for a
synchronous-rectified buck converter, applicable to the
ISL6545 circuit. The output voltage (V
reference voltage, V
voltage) is compared with the oscillator (OSC) modified
sawtooth wave to provide a pulse-width modulated wave with
an amplitude of V
smoothed by the output filter (L and C). The output filter
capacitor bank’s equivalent series resistance is represented by
the series resistor E.
