Intersil Corp ISL8204M and ISL8206M: Switch-mode power modules suit use in POL regulators

Available in a surface-mount packaging, the ISL8204M and ISL8206M switch-mode power supplies include a PWM controller, power MOSFETs, a power inductor, and associated discrete components. Pin-compatible with the vendor’s 10A ISL8201M module, the ISL8204 and the ISL8206M power supplies have a 4A and 6A rating, respectively. The devices enable the construction of a high-performance POL regulator using input and output capacitors, and a resistor for programming the output voltage. Claiming 95% efficiency, the modules provide a 1 to 20V input-voltage range. A resistor sets output voltage from 0.6 to 6V with ±1% accuracy. Available in lead QFN-15 packages measuring 15×15×3.5 mm, the ISL8204M and the ISL8206M switch-mode power modules cost $8.12 and $11.34 (1000), respectively.
