ISL97519 Evaluation Board Application Manual

Description

The ISL97519IUZ-EVALZ evaluation board is an evaluation kit 
for evaluating the ISL97519IUZ-EVALZ, a step-up voltage 
regulator that operates with high frequency and high 
efficiency. This evaluation kit is designed to deliver over 90% 
efficiency.
The ISL97519IUZ-EVALZ kit provides a dip switch that allows 
users to select either 600kHz or 1.2MHz switching frequency.

Key Features

• A Complete Evaluation Platform for Evaluation of ISL97519
• Input Voltage: 2.3V to 5.5V
• Proven Evaluation Board Layout
• Pb-free (RoHS Compliant)

Ordering Information

Quick Setup Guide

Step 1:   Connect the power supply between the headers of VIN 

and GND.

 

The positive output of the power supply 

should be connected to the VIN

 

header. Set the power 

supply voltage between 2.3V and 5V, and the current 
limit at 3A.

Step 2:   Connect the E-load between the headers of VOUT

 

and 

GND. The positive input of the E-load should be 
connected to the VOUT

 

header. Set the E-load current. 

The load current should not exceed the maximum 
output current that the part can supply.

Step 3:   Close pins 1 and 4 of S1 to tie the FSEL pin to VIN. This 

will set the switching frequency to 1.2MHz. Open pins 
1 and 4 to pull FSEL to ground with R4

 

to set the 

frequency to 600kHz.

Step 4:   Close pins 2 and 3 of S1 to tie the EN pin to VIN in order 

to enable the part. To disable the part, open pins 2 and 
3 in order to pull EN to ground with R3

 

to disable the 

part.

Make sure all the connections on the evaluation board are 
correct, then turn on the power supply and E-load. The part will 
start to operate.

Maximum Output Current

The MOSFET current limit is normally 2.0A and guaranteed at 
1.7A. This restricts the maximum output current that the 
ISL97519 can drive. Table 1 shows the ISL97519IUZ-EVALZ 
maximum output current, I

OMAX

 

at different input and output 

voltages.
