Adjustable-Output Feedback (Dual-Mode FB)
Connect FB1 to GND to enable the fixed 5V or tie FB1 to
VCC to set the fixed 1.5V output. Connect a resistive
voltage-divider at FB1 between OUT1 and GND to adjust the
respective output voltage between 0.7V and 5.5V (see
Figure 77). Choose R

Likewise, connect REFIN2 to VCC to enable the fixed 3.3V
or tie REFIN2 to VREF3 to set the fixed 1.05V output. Set
REFIN2 from 0V to 2.50V for SMPS2 tracking mode (see
Figure 78).

• VR = 2V nominal (if tied to REF)
or
• VR = 3.3V nominal (if tied to VREF3)
Design Procedure
Establish the input voltage range and maximum load current
before choosing an inductor and its associated ripple current
ratio (LIR). The following four factors dictate the rest of the
design:

current. Size and efficiency trade-offs must be
considered when setting the inductor ripple current ratio.
Low inductor values cause large ripple currents, resulting
in the smallest size, but poor efficiency and high output
noise. Also, total output ripple above 3.5% of the output
regulation will cause controller to trigger out-of-bound

condition. The minimum practical inductor value is one
that causes the circuit to operate at critical conduction
(where the inductor current just touches zero with every
cycle at maximum load). Inductor values lower than this
grant no further size-reduction benefit.
The ISL6236A pulse-skipping algorithm (SKIP = GND)
initiates skip mode at the critical conduction point, so the
inductor's operating point also determines the load
current at which PWM/PFM switchover occurs. The
optimum LIR point is usually found between 25% and
50% ripple current.
