The ISL78201 is an AEC-Q100 qualified 40V, 2.5A synchronous
buck or boost buck controller with a high-side MOSFET and
low-side driver integrated. In buck mode, the ISL78201 supports
a wide input range of 3V to 40V. In boost-buck mode, the input
range can be extended down to 2.5V and output regulation can be
maintained when VIN drops below VOUT, enabling sensitive
electronics to remain on during cold-cranking and start-stop
applications.
The ISL78201 has a flexible selection of operation modes
including forced PWM mode and an optional switch to PFM mode
for light loads. In PFM mode, the quiescent input current is as low
as 300µA and can be further reduced to 180µA with AUXVCC
connected to VOUT under 12V VIN and 5V VOUT application. The
load boundary between PFM and PWM can be programmed to
cover wide applications.
