ISL70002SEH
Radiation Hardened and SEE Hardened 12A Synchronous Buck Regulator with
Current Sharing
The
ISL70002SEH
is a radiation hardened and SEE hardened
high efficiency monolithic synchronous buck regulator with
integrated MOSFETs. This single chip power solution operates
over an input voltage range of 3V to 5.5V and provides a
tightly regulated output voltage that is externally adjustable
from 0.8V to ~85% of the input voltage. Output load current
capacity is 12A for T
J
≤
+150°C. The two ISL70002SEH
devices configured to current share can provide 19A total
output current, assuming ±27% worst-case current share
accuracy.
The ISL70002SEH utilizes peak current-mode control with
integrated error amp compensation and pin selectable slope
compensation. Switching frequency is also pin selectable to
either 1MHz or 500kHz. Two devices can be synchronized
180° out-of-phase to reduce input RMS ripple current.
High integration makes the ISL70002SEH an ideal choice to
power small form factor applications. Two devices can be
synchronized to provide a complete power solution for large
scale digital ICs, like field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs)
that require separate core and I/O voltages.

ISHA,
If configured as a current share master (ISHSL = DGND, ISHEN = DVDD), the ISHA/ISHB/ISHC pins are outputs
ISHB, ISHC that provide a current equal to 25 times the redundant A/B/C error amp output currents plus
ISHREFA/ISHREFB/ISHREFC (nominally 100µA each). If configured as a current share slave (ISHSL = DVDD,
ISHEN = DVDD), the ISHA/ISHB/ISHC pins are inputs that become the slave’s redundant A/B/C error amp
output current. If using current share, tie ISHA/ISHB/ISHC of the master to ISHA/ ISHB/ ISHC of the slave. If
not using current share, tie ISHA/ISHB/ISHC to DVDD. ISHA/ISHB/ISHC are tri-stated prior to a valid POR and
when ISHEN = DGND.
ISHREFA,
ISHREFB,
ISHREFC
If configured as a current share master (ISHSL = DGND, ISHEN = DVDD), the ISHREFA/ISHREFB/ISHREFC pins
provide a reference output current equal to 100µA each. If configured as a current share slave (ISHSL = DVDD,
ISHEN = DVDD), the ISHREFA/ISHREFB/ISHREFC pins accept a reference input current. For a current share
slave, this input current is used together with the ISHA/ISHB/ISHC current to determine the master’s
redundant A/B/C error amp output current. If using current share, tie ISHREFA/ISHREFB/ISHREFC of the
MASTER to ISHREFA/ISHREFB/ISHREFC of the slave. If not using current share, tie ISHREFA/ISHREFB/
ISHREFC to DVDD. The purpose of the reference current is to reduce the impact of external noise coupling onto
ISHA/ISHB/ISHC. ISHREFA/ISHREFB/ISHREFC are tri-stated prior to a valid POR and when ISHEN = DGND.
This pin is the bias supply input to the internal analog control circuitry. Locally filter this pin to AGND using a
1Ω resistor and a 1µF ceramic capacitor. Locate both filter components as close as possible to the IC. AVDD
should be the same voltage as DVDD and PVINx (±200mV).
This pin is the analog ground associated with the internal analog control circuitry. Connect this pin directly to
the PCB ground plane.

of the slave should be at least twice the C

PGOOD
This pin is the power-good output. This pin is an open drain logic output that is pulled to DGND when the output
voltage is outside a ±11% typical regulation window. This pin can be pulled up to any voltage from 0V to 5.5V,
independent of the supply voltage. A nominal 1kΩ to 10kΩ pull-up resistor is recommended. Bypass this pin
to DGND with a 10nF ceramic capacitor to mitigate SEE. If using current share, tie PGOOD of the master to
PGOOD of the slave.

ISHCOM
DESCRIPTION
ISHCOM is a bidirectional communication line between a current share master and a current share slave. If
using current share, tie ISHCOM of the master to ISHCOM of the slave. The master enables the slave by
resistively (~ 8.5kΩ) pulling ISHCOM high. The slave indicates an overcurrent fault condition to the master by
pulling ISHCOM low. To mitigate SET, connect a 47pF ceramic capacitor from ISHCOM to the PCB ground plane.
If not using current share this pin should be floated or connected to the PCB ground plane. ISHCOM is tri-stated
if ISHEN is low.
This pin is a logic input that is used to configure the IC as a current share master or slave. Tie this pin to DVDD
to configure the IC as a current share slave. Tie this pin to the PCB ground plane to configure the IC as a current
share master, or if the current share feature is not being used.
This pin is an input that enables/disables the current share feature. To enable the current share feature, tie
this pin to DVDD. To disable the current share feature, tie this pin to the PCB ground plane.
This pin is the input for selecting the rising and falling POR (Power-On-Reset) thresholds. For a nominal 5V
supply, connect this pin to DVDD. For a nominal 3.3V supply, connect this pin to DGND. For nominal supply
voltages between 5V and 3.3V, connect this pin to DGND.
This pin is the test data output of the internal BIT circuitry. Connect this pin to the PCB ground plane.
This pin is the test data input of the internal BIT circuitry. Connect this pin to the PCB ground plane.
This pin is a trim input and is used to adjust various internal circuitry. Connect this pin to the PCB ground plane.
This pin is connected to an internal metal die trace that serves as a sensitive node noise shield. Connect this
pin to the PCB ground plane.
When SYNC is configured as an output (clock Master Mode, M/S = DVDD), this pin drives the SYNC input of
another ISL70002SEH with a square ware that is inverted (~180° out-of-phase) from the master clockdriving
the master PWM circuits. When configured as an input (clock Slave Mode, M/S = DGND), this pin uses the
SYNC output from another ISL70002SEH or an external clock to drive the clock slave PWM circuitry. If
synchronizing to an external clock, the clock must be SEE hardened and the frequency must be within the
range of 400kHz to 1.2MHz.
These pins are the power supply inputs to the corresponding internal power blocks. These pins must be
connected to a common power supply rail, which must fall in the range of 3V to 5.5V. Bypass these pins directly
to PGNDx with ceramic capacitors located as close as possible to the IC. PVINx should be the same voltage as
DVDD and AVDD (±200mV).
These pins are the outputs of the corresponding internal power blocks and should be connected to the output
filter inductor. Internally, these pins are connected to the synchronous MOSFET power switches.
These pins are the power grounds associated with the corresponding internal power blocks. These pins also
provide the ground path for the metal package lid. Connect these pins directly to the PCB ground plane. These
pins should also connect to the negative terminals of the input and output capacitors. Locate the input and
output capacitors as close as possible to the IC.
This pin is the clock master/slave input for selecting the direction of the bidirectional SYNC pin. For
SYNC = Output (Master Mode), connect this pin to DVDD. For SYNC = Input (Slave Mode), connect this pin to
the PCB ground plane.
This pin is the oscillator frequency select input. Tie this pin to DVDD to select a 1MHz nominal oscillator
frequency. Tie this pin to the PCB ground plane to select a 500kHz nominal oscillator frequency.
These are No Connect pins that are not connected to anything internally. They should be connected to the PCB
ground plane.
For the R64.C package (heatsink option) this pin is electrically connected to the heatsink on the underside of
the package. Connect this pin and/or the heatsink to a thermal plane.
