nodes. Use copper filled polygons on the top and bottom
circuit layers for the phase nodes. Use the remaining printed
circuit layers for small signal wiring. The wiring traces from
the GATE pins to the MOSFET gates should be kept short
and wide enough to easily handle the 1A of drive current.

ISL6530
The switching components should be placed close to the
ISL6530 first. Minimize the length of the connections
between the input capacitors, C
by placing them nearby. Position both the ceramic and bulk
input capacitors as close to the upper MOSFET drain as
possible. Position the output inductor and output capacitors
between the upper MOSFET and lower diode and the load.
The critical small signal components include any bypass
capacitors, feedback components, and compensation
components. Position the bypass capacitor, C
VCC pin with a via directly to the ground plane. Place the
PWM converter compensation components close to the FB
and COMP pins. The feedback resistors for both regulators
should also be located as close as possible to the relevant
FB pin with vias tied straight to the ground plane as required.
Feedback Compensation

Modulator Break Frequency Equations
The compensation network consists of the error amplifier
(internal to the ISL6530) and the impedance networks Z
and Z
a closed loop transfer function with the highest 0dB crossing

2. Place first zero below filter’s double pole (~75% F
3. Place second zero at filter’s double pole.
4. Place first pole at the ESR zero.
5. Place second pole at half the switching frequency.
6. Check gain against error amplifier’s open-loop gain.
