  Description

The ISL6556B controls microprocessor core voltage regulation by driving up to 4 synchronous-rectified buck channels in parallel. Multiphase buck converter architecture uses interleaved timing to multiply channel ripple frequency and reduce input and output ripple currents.

The ISL6556B utilizes rDS(ON) current sensing in each phase for adaptive voltage positioning (droop), channelcurrent balancing, and overcurrent protection. To ensure the accuracy of droop, a programmable internal temperature compensation function is implemented to nullify the effect of rDS(ON) temperature sensitivity.

A unity gain, differential amplifier is provided for remote voltage sensing. Any potential difference between remote and local grounds can be eliminated using the remote-sense amplifier. The precision threshold-sensitive enable input is available to accurately coordinate the startup of the ISL6556B with Intersil MOSFET driver IC. Dynamic-VID™ technology allows seamless on-the-fly VID changes. The offset pin allows accurate voltage offset settings that are independent of VID setting. The ISL6556B uses 5V bias and has a built-in shunt regulator to allow 12V bias using only a small external limiting resistor.
