High Efficiency Single Inductor Positive/Negative Power Supply
Features
The ISL98608IIH is a high efficiency power supply for small
size displays, such as smart phones and tablets requiring
±supply rails. It integrates a boost regulator, LDO, and inverting
charge pump that are used to generate two output rails:
+5V (default) and -6 (default). The ±5V output voltages can be
adjusted from ±4.5V up to ±7V with 50mV steps using the I2C
interface.
• Two outputs:
- VP = +5V (default)
- VN = -5V (default)
• 2.5V to 5.5V input voltage range
• ±4.5 to ±7V wide output range
The device integrates synchronous rectification MOSFETs for
the boost regulator and inverting charge pump, which
maximizes conversion efficiency.
• >89% efficiency with 12mA load between VP and VN
• 18mm2 solution PCB area
The ISL98608IIH integrates all compensation and feedback
components, which minimizes BOM count and reduces the
solution PCB size to 18mm2.
• Fully integrated FETs for synchronous rectification
• Integrated compensation and feedback circuits
• I2C adjustable output voltages and settings
The input voltage range, high efficiency operation and very low
shutdown current make the device ideal for use in single cell
Li-ion battery operated applications.
• Integrated VP/VN discharge resistors
• 1µA shutdown supply current
• Programmable turn-on and turn-off sequencing
The ISL98608IIH is offered in a 1.744mm x1.744mm WLCSP
package, and the device is specified for operation across the
-40°C to +85°C ambient temperature range.
• 1.744mm x1.744mm, 4x4 array WLCSP with 0.4mm pitch
Applications
• TFT-LCD smart phone displays
• Small size/handheld displays
• Hi-Fi audio amplifier supply

Application Information
50mV resolution. Similar to the VP regulator, the VN regulator
also integrates a discharge resistor and the value of discharge
resistor is 35Ω. The VN is an ideal solution for negative supply
due to low ripple, fast load transient response and higher
efficiency.
Description
The ISL98608IIH is a display PMIC and can be used to supply
power to an LCD display. Figure 42 shows the typical system
application block diagram. For display power, the ISL98608IIH
integrates a boost regulator (VBST), low dropout linear regulator
(VP) and an inverting charge pump regulator (VN). The boost
voltage is generated from a battery voltage ranging from 2.5V to
5.5V and boost regulator output can be programmed from 4.60V
to 7.3V. The VBST regulator integrates low-side NFET and
high-side PFET MOSFETs for synchronous rectification.
Modes of Operation
SHUTDOWN MODE
The ISL98608IIH is in shutdown mode when the enable pins,
namely ENN and ENP are pulled low. When the ENN and ENP
pins are all pulled low, all the regulators are powered off and the
IC is placed in shutdown mode where the current consumed from
the battery is only 1µA (typical).
The output voltage of VBST is the input to the linear regulator
(VP). The VBST output and VP regulator input are connected
internally in the IC. The VP regulator supplies a positive voltage in
the range of +4.5V to +7V with 50mV resolution. An 80Ω
discharge resistor discharges residual voltage when the poweroff sequence is initiated, which helps avoid ghost image issues.
The LDO is an ideal solution for the positive supply due to its low
ripple, fast load transient response, higher efficiency and low
dropout voltage.
OPERATING MODE
The IC is in normal operating mode when the ENN and ENP are
pulled high and the current consumed from the battery is only
1mA (excluding VBST and VN switching current). After the
ENN/ENP signals are pulled high, VBST, VP and VN go through
power-on sequencing. Refer to “Power-On/Off Sequence” on
page 23 for more details.
The VN voltage is generated by a regulated inverting charge
pump topology. VBSTCP is the input to the inverting charge
pump, which should be connected to the VBST pin on the PCB.
The VN regulator supplies negative voltage from -7V to -4.5V with

ISL98608IIH
I2C Digital Interface
STOP condition is signified by a LOW to HIGH transition on the
SDA line while SCL is HIGH. See timing specifications in Table 2.
The ISL98608IIH uses a standard I2C interface bus for
communication. The two-wire interface links a Master(s) and
uniquely addressable Slave devices. The Master generates clock
signals and is responsible for initiating data transfers. The serial
clock is on the SCL line and the serial data (bidirectional) is on
the SDA line. The ISL98608IIH supports clock rates up to 400kHz
(Fast mode) and is backwards compatible with standard 100kHz
clock rates (Standard mode).
The Master always initiates START and STOP conditions. After a
START condition, the bus is considered “busy.” After a STOP
condition, the bus is considered “free.” The ISL98608IIH also
supports repeated STARTs, where the bus will remain busy for
continued transaction(s).
DATA VALIDITY
The data on the SDA line must be stable (clearly defined as HIGH
or LOW) during the HIGH period of the clock signal. The state of
the SDA line can only change when the SCL line is LOW (except to
create a START or STOP condition). See timing specifications in
Table 2.
The SDA and SCL lines must be HIGH when the bus is free - not in
use. An external pull-up resistor (typically 2.2kΩto 4.7kΩ) or
current source is required for SDA and SCL.
The ISL98608IIH meets standard I2C timing specifications, see
Figure 44 and Table 2, which show the standard timing
definitions and specifications for I2C communication.
The voltage levels used to indicate a logical ‘0’ (LOW) and logical
‘1’ (HIGH) are determined by the VIL and VIH thresholds,
respectively, see the “Electrical Specifications” table on page 7.
START AND STOP CONDITION
All I2C communication begins with a START condition (indicating
the beginning of a transaction) and ends with a STOP condition
(signaling the end of the transaction).
BYTE FORMAT
Every byte transferred on SDA must be 8 bits in length. After
every byte of data sent by the transmitter there must be an
Acknowledge bit (from the receiver) to signify that the previous
8 bits were transferred successfully. Data is always transferred
on SDA with the Most Significant Bit (MSB) first. See
“Acknowledge (ACK)” on page 18.
A START condition is signified by a HIGH to LOW transition on the
serial data line (SDA) while the serial clock line (SCL) is HIGH. A

ACKNOWLEDGE (ACK)
Each 8-bit data transfer is followed by an Acknowledge (ACK) bit
from the receiver. The Acknowledge bit signifies that the previous
8 bits of data was transferred successfully (master to slave or
slave to master).
When the Master sends data to the Slave (e.g., during a WRITE
transaction), after the 8th bit of a data byte is transmitted, the
Master tri-states the SDA line during the 9th clock. The Slave
device acknowledges that it received all 8 bits by pulling down
the SDA line, generating an ACK bit.
When the Master receives data from the Slave (e.g., during a data
READ transaction), after the 8th bit is transmitted, the Slave
tri-states the SDA line during the 9th clock. The Master
acknowledges that it received all 8 bits by pulling down the SDA
line, generating an ACK bit.
NOT ACKNOWLEDGE (NACK)
A Not Acknowledge (NACK) is generated when the receiver does
not pull-down the SDA line during the acknowledge clock (i.e.,
SDA line remains HIGH during the 9th clock). This indicates to the
Master that it can generate a STOP condition to end the
transaction and free the bus.
A NACK can be generated for various reasons, for example:
• After an I2C device address is transmitted, there is NO receiver
with that address on the bus to respond.
• The receiver is busy performing an internal operation (e.g.,
reset, recall, etc) and cannot respond.
• The Master (acting as a receiver) needs to indicate the end of a
transfer with the Slave (acting as a transmitter).
DEVICE ADDRESS AND R/W BIT
Data transfers follow the format shown in Figures 46 and 47 on
page 19. After a valid START condition, the first byte sent in a
transaction contains the 7-bit Device (Slave) Address plus a
direction (R/W) bit. The Device Address identifies which device
(of up to 127 devices on the I2C bus) the Master wishes to
communicate with.
After a START condition, the ISL98608IIH monitors the first 8 bits
(Device Address Byte) and checks for its 7-bit Device Address in
the MSBs. If it recognizes the correct Device Address, it will ACK
and becomes ready for further communication. If it does not see
its Device Address, it will sit idle until another START condition is
issued on the bus.
FN8724 Rev.2.01
Dec 7, 2021
To access the ISL98608IIH, the 7-bit Device Address is 0x29
(0101001x), located in MSB bits . The eighth bit of the
Device Address byte (LSB bit ) indicates the direction of
transfer, READ or WRITE (R/W). A “0” indicates a WRITE
operation - the Master will transmit data to the ISL98608IIH
(receiver). A “1” indicates a Read operation - the Master will
receive data from the ISL98608IIH (transmitter) (see Figure 45).

FIGURE 45. DEVICE ADDRESS BYTE FORMAT
Write Operation
A WRITE sequence requires an I2C START condition, followed by
a valid Device Address Byte with the R/W bit set to ‘0’, a valid
Register Address Byte, a Data Byte and a STOP condition. After
each valid byte is sent, the ISL98608IIH (slave) responds with an
ACK. When the Write transaction is completed, the Master should
generate a STOP condition. For sent data to be latched by the
ISL98608IIH, the STOP condition should occur after a full byte (8
bits) is sent and ACK. If a STOP is generated in the middle of a
byte transaction, the data will be ignored. See Figure 46 on
page 19 for the ISL98608IIH I2C Write protocol.
Read Operation
A READ sequence requires the Master to first write to the
ISL98608IIH to indicate the Register Address/pointer to read
from. First, Send a START condition, followed by a valid Device
Address Byte with the R/W set to ‘0’ and then a valid Register
Address Byte. Then the Master generates either a Repeat START
condition or a STOP condition followed by a new START condition
and a valid Device Address Byte with the R/W bit set to ‘1’. Then
the ISL98608IIH is ready to send data to the Master from the
requested Register Address.
The ISL98608IIH sends out the Data Byte by asserting control of
the SDA pin while the Master generates clock pulses on the SCL
pin. When transmission of the desired data is complete, the
Master generates a NACK condition followed by a STOP condition
and this completes the I2C Read sequence. See Figure 47 on
page 19 for the ISL98608IIH I2C Read protocol.

Register Descriptions and Addresses
FAULT
The “Register Map” on page 21 contains the detailed register
map, with descriptions and addresses for ISL98608IIH registers.
Each volatile register is one byte (8-bit) in size. When writing data
to adjust register settings using I2C, the data is latched-in after
the 8th bit (LSB) is received.
The “FAULT” register (Register Address 0x04) can be used to read
back the current fault status of the IC. The fault conditions that
can be read back by I2C are VBST undervoltage fault, VP
undervoltage fault, VN undervoltage fault and over-temperature
protection (OTP) fault.
The ISL98608IIH has default register settings that are applied at
IC power-up, and in some cases, updated based on fuse values at
first enable. The default register settings are indicated with BOLD
face text.
If FAULT register bit (OTP status bit) is latched high for an
OTP fault, it can be reset by simultaneously cycling ENP and ENN.
NOTE: To clear/reset all the volatile registers to the default values, power
cycle VIN or clear the register 0x04 bit .
Register Functions
The ISL98608IIH has various registers that can be used to adjust
and control IC operating voltages, modes, thresholds and
sequences.
FN8724 Rev.2.01
Dec 7, 2021
If FAULT register bit (VBST status bit) is latched high for a
VBST undervoltage fault, it can be reset by cycling ENP and ENN
together.
If FAULT register bit (VN status bit) is latched high for a VN
undervoltage fault, it can be reset by cycling ENN.
If FAULT register bit (VP status bit) is latched high for a VP
undervoltage fault, it can be reset by cycling ENP.
Page 19 of 33
ISL98608IIH
All fault bits can be cleared by cycling VIN or with a software
reboot (clearing register 0x04 bit). This will reset the entire
part to default settings and disable all outputs until they have
sequenced up again.
ENABLE
The “ENABLE” register (Register Address 0x05) can be used to
control the enable/disable state of the boost (VBST), positive
LDO (VP) and negative charge pump (VN). This can also be used
to sequence the regulators. Refer to “Enable Timing Control
Options for VP and VN Regulators” on page 26 for details
regarding the control of output regulators using the enable and
I2C control. Using this register the VP and VN pull-down resistor
can be enabled or disabled, soft-start time of VP and VN can be
adjusted and the timing of VP sequencing can be adjusted.
Bit of ENABLE register controls the delay between the ENP
signal going low and the VP regulator power-off. If Bit is set to
0, the VP regulator is disabled 2ms after ENP going low. If Bit
is set to 1, the VP regulator is disabled as soon as ENP goes low.
Bit of ENABLE register controls shutdown behavior of VBST,
VP and VN regulators after OTP or UV event. If Bit is set to 1,
then VBST, VP and VN regulators are shut off after OTP or UV
event. To turn on the regulators, IC should be out of fault
condition and ENP and ENN signals are recycled. Regulators can
also be turned on by recycling the enable bit in the I2C register. If
Bit is set to 0, then regulators will turn back on as soon as
fault condition is removed.
respective soft-start sequence.
Output Voltage Calculation for VBST, VP and VN
The expected output voltage for each regulator can be
determined using Equations 1 through 3. Note, N is the 5-bit
register settings from 0x06, 0x08 and 0x09 in decimal.
The expected VBST voltage can be determined using Equation 1.
VBST V = VBST Default V + N 50mV
(EQ. 1)
Once the maximum VBST voltage is reached, the algorithm will
wrap around to give VBST voltage from 4.65V to 5.1V.
The expected VP voltage can be determined using Equation 2.
ꞏ
VP V = VP Default V + N 50mV
(EQ. 2)
Once the maximum VP voltage is reached, the algorithm will
wrap around to give VP voltage from 4.50V to 4.95V.
The expected VN voltage can be determined using Equation 3.
ꞏ
VN V = VN Default V – N 50mV
(EQ. 3)
Once the minimum VN voltage is reached, the algorithm will
wrap around to give VN voltage from -4.50V to -4.95V.
Example Calculations:
If N = 10 (decimal) VBST(Default) = 5.15V, VP/VN(Default) = ±5V:
VBST V = 5.15V + 10 50mV = 5.65V
Bit controls the VN and VP discharge resistor. If Bit is
programmed to “0”, then it will enable the discharge resistor
where as “1” will disable the discharge resistor.
VP V = 5V + 10 50mV = 5.5V
Bit controls the soft-start time of VN and VP regulators. If
Bit is set to “0”, then soft-start time of VN is 1.8ms and for VP
is 1.2ms whereas when set to “1”, soft-start time of both VP and
VN regulator is 0.7ms.
The default output voltage of VBST, VP, and VN regulators can be
determined by factory configurable settings. The output voltage
can be changed using I2C control when VIN > POR (Power-On
Reset) voltage. When powered up, Registers 0x06, 0x08, and
0x09 read value 0x00 and VBST, VN, VP voltage levels are at
respective default voltage. Using I2C control, the voltage can be
changed by changing the value of Registers 0x06, 0x08, and
0x09. As VIN < POR (Power-On Reset) voltage, Registers 0x06,
0x08, and 0x09 read 0x00.
VBST/VN/VN VOLTAGE
The output voltages of VBST, VP and VN regulators can be
changed using the registers “VBST Voltage”, “VP Voltage” and
“VN Voltage,” respectively. VBST voltage is at Register Address
0x06, VN voltage is at Register Address 0x08 and VP voltage is at
Register Address 0x09. The output voltages of all regulators can
be changed from their default values using I2C.
• The VBST regulator can be programmed from +4.65V to +7.3V
• The VP regulator can be programmed from +4.5V to +7V
• The VN regulator can be programmed from -7V to -4.5V
• All are adjustable with 50mV step size.
VN V = -5V – 10 50mV = -5.5V
VBST CONTROL
In addition to output voltage adjustments, key operation
parameters can be changed using I2C to optimize the
ISL98608IIH performance.
The “VBST CNTRL and VBST/VN Frequency” register (Register
Address 0x0D) can be used to control boost PFM mode, boost
FET slew rate and switching frequency of the boost and charge
pump.
Once the maximum VBST voltage (7.3V) is reached the algorithm
will wrap around to give VBST voltage from 4.65V to 5.1V.
Similarly, when maximum VP and VN voltage are reached (±7V),
the algorithm will wrap around to give VP/VN voltage from ±4.5V
to ±4.95V.
To determine the expected output voltage for a specific register
value, see the following section “Output Voltage Calculation for
VBST, VP and VN”.

Description
Regulator Output Enable/Disable
The boost converter, VBST, will be enabled whenever either ENP
or ENN is HIGH and the VBST enable bit in the ENABLE
register is set to ‘1’. To disable the boost (and effectively VP and
VN), ENN and ENP must be LOW, or its enable bit set to ‘0’.
The negative charge pump, VN, is enabled whenever ENN is HIGH
and the VN enable bit in the ENABLE register is set to ‘1’. To
disable, ENN must be LOW, or its enable bit set to ‘0’.
The LDO, VP, is enabled whenever ENP is HIGH and the VP enable
Bit in the ENABLE register is set to ‘1’. To disable ENP must
be LOW, or its enable bit set to ‘0’.
All the ENABLE register bits are set to ‘1’ by default.
Note, ENP and ENN are logic level inputs with HIGH/LOW
thresholds defined by the VIH/VIL specifications, respectively.
These inputs also have 1MΩ (typical) internal pull-down
resistance to ground. If the pins are left at high-impedance, they
will default to a LOW logic state. Refer to the “LOGIC/DIGITAL” on
page 7 of the “Electrical Specifications” table for more
information.
VP and VN Headroom Voltage and Output
Current
The VP and VN headroom voltage is defined as the difference
between the VBST target voltage and maximum of VP and |VN|
target voltages.
The headroom voltage must be set high enough so that both the
VP LDO and VN negative Charge Pump (CP) can maintain
regulation. The VBST voltage must be greater than the absolute
value of the VN regulation voltage (i.e., the headroom voltage has
to be >0V). Primarily, the minimum headroom voltage is a
function of the maximum application load current that the IC will
need to support. Fast output current peaks of only a few
microseconds should not be considered - those instantaneous
current peaks will be supported by the output capacitors and not
by the regulator. Equation 4 shows the minimum headroom
required depending upon the current.
Headroom V Imax A X2.7
(EQ. 4)
Note the headroom voltage should not be set overly high, since
increasing headroom generally yields lower efficiency
performance due to increased conduction losses.
For very low duty cycle where the output voltage of the VBST is
very close to the input voltage, VBST starts to track the input
voltage with a fixed headroom of ~600mV. This feature avoids
the minimum duty cycle limitation from producing increased
ripple on VBST (which feeds through to VP/VN) and ensures
proper regulation of the VBST, VP and VN regulators.
Negative Charge Pump Operation (VN)
The ISL98608IIH uses a negative charge pump with internal
switches to create the VN voltage rail. The charge pump input
voltage VBSTCP comes from the boost regulator output, VBST.
Regulation is achieved through a classic voltage mode
architecture where an internally compensated integrator output
is compared with the voltage ramp to set a duty cycle. The duty
cycle controls the amount of time the output capacitor is charged
during each switching cycle. The maximum duty cycle is 50%.
The charge pump output capacitor (placed on the VN pin) is
pumped through internal current source to minimize system
noise.
VN and VBST PFM
The ISL98608IIH features light-load Pulse Frequency Modulation
(PFM) mode for both the boost regulator and the charge pump, to
maximize efficiency at light loads.
The device always uses PWM mode at heavy loading, but will
automatically switch to PFM mode at light loads to optimize
efficiency. PFM capability is enabled using the respective PFM
mode enable/disable register bits.
VBST PFM
In PFM mode, the boost can be configured to either use a fixed
peak current or to automatically select the optimal peak current
setting. The automatic, or “Auto” mode, is designed to
dynamically adjust the peak current to maintain boost output
voltage ripple at relatively fixed levels across input voltage, while
improving efficiency at low input voltages. This patent pending
architecture adjusts the peak current to keep the sum of inductor
ramp-up and ramp-down times to a constant value of
approximately 1.3*TPWM. This scheme also gives more
consistent ripple part-to-part and keeps PWM/PFM hysteresis
defined in a smaller and more optimal band across operating
voltages. It is recommended to operate the part in this mode.
The VBST PFM mode features an ultrasonic Audio Band
Suppression (ABS) mode, which prevents the switching
frequency from falling below 30kHz to avoid audible noise. When
the time interval between two consecutive switching cycles in
PFM mode is more than 33ms (i.e., 30kHz frequency) the
regulator reduces the peak inductor current, to maintain the
frequency at 30kHz. If this is not sufficient, the regulator will add
low current reverse current cycles.
VN PFM
The charge pump PFM mode works by increasing the minimum
pump on-time, and thereby the charge delivered per cycle, when
the load is low. This allows increased ripple to be traded off
against switching losses.
For most applications, the ISL98608IIH default 400mV
headroom voltage setting provides optimal performance for DC
output current up to 200mA (maximum).

ISL98608IIH
VP/VN Output Hi-Z Mode
The ISL98608IIH VP and VN regulator can be configured in a Hi-Z
mode to prevent any leakage current flowing between VP and VN.
Using I2C register 0x05 can be used to disable the
pull-down resistors on VP and VN giving a “Hi-Z” state of output.
Power-On/Off Sequence
The boost regulator used to generate VP/VN, VBST, is activated
when the VIN input voltage is higher than the UVLO threshold,
and either ENP or ENN is high, along with their respective I2C
enable bits. To enable the VBST, Reg 0x05 should be 1
(by default this bit is set to 1). The VP output is activated if ENP is
high, VBST has completed its soft-start and Reg 0x05 is 1
(by default this bit is set to 1). The VN charge pump is activated
2ms after VBST has completed soft-start and the ENN has been
pulled high, whichever comes later. To activate the VN regulator,
Reg 0x05 should also be 1 (by default this bit is set to 1).
Figure 48 shows the power-on sequence for the case when the
ENP and ENN all are tied together and VP/VN rail sequencing is
enabled in register 0x04 by writing “0” and VP soft-start
time is 1.2ms where as VN soft-start time is 1.8ms programmed
from register 0x05 by writing “1”. The VBST soft-starts if the
VIN voltage is higher than the UVLO threshold and either ENN or
ENP is high. When the VBST soft-start is completed, the VP
regulator soft-starts in 1.2ms. The VN power-on occurs 2ms after
VBST soft-start completes. The VN soft-start time takes 1.8ms.
The 2ms power-on delay between VP and VN can be disabled
from register 0x04 by writing “1”.
Figure 49 shows the power-on sequence for the case when the
ENP and ENN all are tied together and VP/VN rail sequencing is
enabled in register 0x04 by writing “0” and VP/VN soft-start
time is programmed to 0.7ms from register 0x05 by writing
“1”. The VBST soft-starts if the VIN voltage is higher than the
UVLO threshold and either ENN or ENP is high. When the VBST
soft-start is completed, the VP regulator soft-starts in 0.7ms. The
VN power-on occurs 2ms after VBST soft-start completes. The VN
soft-start time takes 0.7ms. The 2ms power-on delay between VP
and VN can be disabled from register 0x04 by writing “1”.
Figure 50 shows the power-on sequence for the case when the
ENP and ENN all are tied together and VP/VN rail sequencing is
disabled in register 0x04 by writing “1” and VP/VN soft-start
time is programmed to 1.2ms from register 0x05 by writing
“0”. The VBST soft-starts if the VIN voltage is higher than the
UVLO threshold and either ENN or ENP is high. When the VBST
soft-start is completed, the VP and VN regulator soft-starts in
1.2ms.
FN8724 Rev.2.01
Dec 7, 2021
Figure 51 shows the power-on sequence for the case when the
ENP and ENN all are tied together and VP/VN rail sequencing is
disabled in register 0x04 by writing “1” and VP/VN soft-start
time is programmed to 0.7ms from register 0x05 by writing
“1”. The VBST soft-starts if the VIN voltage is higher than the
UVLO threshold and either ENN or ENP is high. When the VBST
soft-start is completed, the VP and VN regulator soft-starts in
0.7ms.
The VP/VN/VBST soft-start times quoted above (VBST = 0.47ms,
VP = 1.2ms and VN = 1.2ms or 1.8ms) are valid for the default
voltage levels (VSBT = 5.15V, VP = 5V and VN = -5V). These will
change with different voltages, as they are set to give a fixed
dv/dt.
Figure 52 shows the power-on sequence for the case when the
ENP and ENN are controlled by two GPIOs and VP/VN rail
sequencing is enabled from register 0x04 by writing "0".
Also, VP soft-start time is programmed to 1.2ms and VN
soft-start time is programmed to 1.8ms from register 0x05
by writing "0".
ENP or ENN going low will shut down VP or VN, respectively. If
both ENP and ENN are pulled low, then VP, VN and VBST are all
turned off. The VN regulator shuts off when ENN is pulled low. VP
and VBST power-off occurs 2ms after the ENP signal goes low
(Register 0x05 = 0), (see Figure 53). If Register 0x05 = 1,
the VP and VN regulators will power off immediately when ENN
and ENP are pulled low (see Figure 54).
If VIN falls below UVLO while the IC is active, all active regulators
will be turned off at the same time (see Figure 55).
VP AND VN DISCHARGE RESISTOR
The integrated discharge resistors on the VP and VN outputs are
80Ω (typical) and 35Ω (typical), respectively. The VP discharge
resistor is enabled for 2ms (by default) following when ENN goes
low. If ENP is still high, the VP discharge resistor is disabled 2ms
after ENN goes low. The VP discharge resistor will be re-enabled
when ENP goes low. If the same output capacitor (value, size,
rating) is used for VN and VP, the VN rail will discharge faster
than VP if they are both turned off at the same time. This is ideal
for applications that require the VN rail to go down before VP at
power-off.

Enable Timing Control Options for VP and VN
Regulators
There are several ways to control enable sequencing of the VP
and VN regulators: I2C control, and dual or single GPIO control.
I2C CONTROL
By using I2C, the sequencing of the VP and VN regulator can be
controlled by writing to register 0x02. Bit controls the VN
regulator and controls the VP regulator. Setting the bits to
‘1’ will enable the regulator and setting to ‘0’ will shut off/disable
the regulator. Delaying the writes for setting bit and
(using separate I2C transactions) will delay the turn-on/off
sequence of VP and VN accordingly. When using I2C to control
the sequencing, ENN and ENP should be pulled low before writing
to the I2C register to disable the VP and VN regulators and then
ENN and ENP can go high before the I2C is used to enable them.
VP = 2V/DIV
VN = 2V/DIV

VP
Figure 56 shows a 14ms delay between when VP and VN turn-on.
The 14ms time is an example delay to show the power-on
sequencing possibility through I2C. This delay is set between the
separate I2C writes to set the enable bits in register 0x02. If both
enable bits were set to ‘1’ in the same I2C transaction (same
byte) and ENN and ENP are high, then both VP and VN regulators
will start power-on sequencing at the same time (when the data
is latched at the STOP condition). The VN will come up 2ms after
VP if register 0x02 is low and with VP if high.
Figure 57 shows a 14ms delay between the VP and VN turn-off.
The 14ms time is an example delay to show the power-off
sequencing possibility using I2C.
Figures 58 (zoom in) and 59 (zoom out) show a typical I2C data
transfer to the ENABLE register. In this example, VP and VN
regulators are enabled by writing data 0x07 to register address
0x02. The VP regulator will be enabled first after the I2C STOP
condition, followed by the VN regulator after the internal 2ms
delay.

SEPARATE ENP AND ENN PINS (2 GPIO CONTROL)
TIE ENP AND ENN TOGETHER (1 GPIO CONTROL)
Using two separate GPIO’s, and controlling the timing between
the ENP and ENN pins, the turn-on/off events can be controlled.
The method to control turn-on/off by GPIO is valid when the
respective enable bits in the ENABLE register at Register Address
0x02 are set to ‘1’ (default). Thus, this method can be used with
no I2C communication.
There is also an option to sequence the VN and VP regulators if
there is only a single GPIO available in the system. The method to
control turn-on/off by GPIO is valid when the respective enable
bits in the ENABLE register at Register Address 0x02 are set to
‘1’ (default). Therefore, this method can be used with no I2C
communication.
Figure 60 shows a 6ms delay (example) between the ENP and
ENN rise.
If the ENP and ENN are tied together and both pulled high and
register 0x02 = “0”, then there is a default delay sequence
in the IC. VP will come up first and after 2ms VN will soft-start.
For turn off, VN will power-off first, and VP starts to shut down
2ms after VN starts to power-off.
Figure 61 shows a 13ms delay (example) between the ENP and
ENN fall.
Figure 62 shows turn-on when the ENN and ENP pins are tied
together. There is a 2ms delay between VP and VN turning on.
Figure 63 shows turn-off when the ENN and ENP are tied
together.

ISL98608IIH
Fault Protection and Monitoring
The ISL98608IIH features extensive protections to automatically
handle failure conditions and protect the IC and application from
damage.
OVERCURRENT PROTECTION (OCP)
The overcurrent protection limits the VBST nMOSFET current on a
cycle-by-cycle basis. When the nMOSFET current reaches the
current limit threshold, the nMOSFET is turned off for the
remainder of that cycle. Overcurrent protection does not disable
any of the regulators. Once the fault is removed, the IC will
continue with normal operation.
UNDERVOLTAGE LOCKOUT (UVLO)
Depending on which regulator(s) fault, bit(s) , , or
in the FAULT register will be latched to ‘1’ for VP, VN and VBST
faults, respectively. The bit(s) are reset/cleared by cycling both
ENN and ENP (set LOW, then HIGH) at the same time or by
cycling VIN power.
Undervoltage protection can be disabled by making selection
from register 0x05.
Component Selection
The design of the boost converter is simplified by an internal
compensation scheme, which allows an easy system design
without complicated calculations. Select component values
using the following recommendations.
If the input voltage (VIN) falls below the VUVLO_HYS level of ~2.3V
(typical), the VBST, VP and VN regulators will be disabled. All the
rails will restart with normal soft-start operation when the VIN
input voltage is applied again (rising VIN > VUVLO). Refer to the
“Electrical Specifications” table on page 6 for the UVLO
specifications.
Input Capacitor
Note, the I2C registers (logic) are not cleared/reset to default by
the falling VIN UVLO. The logic states are retained if VIN remains
above 2V (typical). Once VIN falls below 2V, all logic is reset. VIN
should fall below 2V (ideally to GND) before power is reapplied to
ensure a full power cycle/reset of the device.
First, determine the minimum inductor saturation current
required for the application.
OVER-TEMPERATURE PROTECTION (OTP)
The ISL98608IIH has a hysteretic over-temperature protection
threshold set at +150°C (typical). If this threshold is reached, the
VBST, VP and VN regulators are disabled immediately. As soon as
temperature falls by 20°C (typical) then all the regulators
automatically restart.
All register bits, except for Bit of the FAULT register
(Register Address 0x04), remain unaffected during an OTP fault
event. When an OTP event occurs, FAULT register bit is
latched to ‘1’. This bit is reset/cleared by cycling both ENN and
ENP (set LOW, then HIGH) at the same time, or by cycling VIN
power. Bit can also be reset after it is read twice by I2C. A
single I2C read will return the bit value (status) and a second read
will reset only the OTP bit.
Output undervoltage protection is disabled during an OTP event.
Since the output voltages decrease during an OTP event because
the regulators are disabled, this will not trigger a UVP fault.
UNDERVOLTAGE PROTECTION (UVP)
The ISL98608IIH includes output undervoltage protection.
Undervoltage protection disables the regulator whenever the
output voltage of VBST or VP falls below 60% of its set/regulated
voltage, or the output voltage of VN goes above 60% of its
set/regulated voltage, for 100µs or more. If the output voltage
exceeds the 60% condition for less than 100µs, no fault will
occur.
It is recommended that a 10µF X5R/X7R or equivalent ceramic
capacitor is placed on the VIN input supply to ground.
Inductor
The ISL98608IIH operates in Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM)
at higher load current and in Discontinuous Conduction Mode
(DCM) at lighter loads. In CCM, we can calculate the peak
inductor current using Equations 5 through 9.
Given these parameters:
• Input Voltage = VIN
• Output Voltage = VO
• Duty Cycle = D
• Switching Frequency = fSW
• tSW = 1/fSW
Then the inductor ripple can be calculated as:
I P-P = V IN D L f SW
(EQ. 5)
Where D = 1 - (VIN/VO), then rewrite Equation 5:
I P-P = V IN V O – V IN L f SW V O
(EQ. 6)
The average inductor current is equal to the average input
current, where IIAVG can be calculated from the efficiency of the
converter.
I IAVG = V O I O V IN Efficiency
(EQ. 7)
To find the peak inductor current write the expression as:
I Pk = I P-P 2 + I IAVG
(EQ. 8)
Substituting Equations 6 and 7 in Equation 8 to calculate IPk:
I PK = 0.5 V IN V O – V IN L f SW V O + V O I O V IN EFF
(EQ. 9)

EXAMPLE FOR VBST REGULATOR
Consider the following parameters in the steady state VLED
boost regulator operating in CCM mode.
VIN = 2.5V
VO = 5.3V
IO = 0.100A
fSW = 1.45MHz
Table 4 shows the recommended capacitors for various
regulators in ISL98608IIH.
Efficiency = 80%
L = 2.2µH
Substituting previous parameters in Equation 9 gives us:
IPk = 0.472A
The VBST regulator can be configured to either use a fixed peak
current or to automatically select the optimal peak current
setting. The automatic mode is designed to dynamically adjust
the peak current to maintain boost output voltage ripple at a
relatively fixed value across input voltage, while improving
efficiency at low input voltages.
In order to avoid the inductor core saturation, the saturation
current of the inductor selected should be higher than the greater
of the peak inductor current (for CCM) and the peak current in
PFM mode and current limit of the regulators. It is recommended
to use an inductor that has saturation current rating higher than
current limit of the boost regulator.
Auto PFM mode provides maximum efficiency using 2.2µH for
the VBST regulator. L = 2.2µH is the optimal value for the VBST
regulator.
Table 3 shows the recommended inductors for the VBST boost
regulator.

Output Capacitor
The output capacitor supplies current to the load during transient
conditions and reduces the ripple voltage at the output. Output
ripple voltage consists of two components:
1. The voltage drop due to the inductor ripple current flowing
through the ESR of the output capacitor.
2. Charging and discharging of the output capacitor.
For low ESR ceramic capacitors, the output ripple is dominated
by the charging and discharging of the output capacitor. The
voltage rating of the output capacitor should be greater than the
maximum output voltage.
FN8724 Rev.2.01
Dec 7, 2021
The effective capacitance at the nominal output voltage should
be ≥2.2µF for VBST and VP regulators, and ≥4.4µF for VN. It is
recommended to use a 10µF X5R 10V or equivalent ceramic
output capacitor for both VBST and VP outputs to provide a
minimum of 2.2µF effective capacitance. For the VN output, it is
recommended to use one or two 10µF X5R 10V or equivalent
ceramic output capacitors. Using two VN output capacitors
results in
