ISL91117IIAZ-T Descripción general

The Renesas ISL91117IIAZ-T is a highly-integrated synchronous boost switching regulator delivering up to 4.2A switch current in a 20-ball WLCSP package for battery-powered applications. It accepts input voltages from 1.8V to 4.8V (single-cell Li-ion/Li-polymer or 2-3 cell alkaline/NiMH/NiCd), produces an adjustable output from 0.8V up to the input range and supports 1.5A output at PVIN=3.3V to VOUT=5V. The synchronous rectifier topology and integrated output disconnect maximize efficiency while eliminating external Schottky diode cost.

A synchronous boost converter is a switch-mode DC-DC converter that steps the input voltage up to a higher regulated output using an internal high-side MOSFET, an inductor, and a synchronous low-side MOSFET replacing the traditional diode. Within the broader power-management IC hierarchy, the boost converter belongs to step-up switching regulators, which sit alongside buck (step-down), buck-boost, and SEPIC converters. This category trades efficiency against the linear regulator's noise performance: switching converters achieve 90-95% efficiency versus 30-60% for low-dropout (LDO) regulators at large VIN/VOUT deltas, but inject ripple into the output that requires LC filtering. The ISL91117 family targets portable, single-cell Li-ion systems where battery life depends on minimizing quiescent current and maximizing converter efficiency.

The ISL91117IIAZ-T integrates two 4.2A N-channel MOSFETs in a synchronous configuration, supports output disconnect (true shutdown), and operates at a fixed switching frequency optimized for small external components. Internal compensation eliminates the need for external compensation networks. The 20-ball WLCSP occupies approximately 2.015 mm x 1.555 mm of board area, enabling ultra-compact portable designs. Protection features include overcurrent protection, over-temperature shutdown, and undervoltage lockout. The wide input range supports direct connection to single-cell Li-ion batteries without front-end regulation.

Typical applications include boosting a single-cell Li-ion battery (3.0-4.2V) to 5V USB-OTG rails in smartphones, powering 3.3V subsystems from 1.8V rails in wearable devices, and generating 5V supplies from dual-cell alkaline stacks in portable medical and industrial handheld instruments. The 4.2A switch rating also supports LED flash drivers, audio amplifiers, and other high-current loads requiring voltages above the battery.

When designing with the ISL91117IIAZ-T, the critical trade-off is efficiency versus noise: a switching regulator always adds ripple versus an LDO, so for noise-sensitive analog rails downstream LDO post-regulation may still be required. Use the smallest ceramic capacitors that meet the datasheet ESR/ESL guidance to minimize solution size and cost.

📱

Smartphone USB-OTG 5V Power Rail

The ISL91117IIAZ-T's 1.8V to 4.8V input range directly accepts a single-cell Li-ion/Li-polymer battery (3.0-4.2V nominal), and its synchronous boost topology efficiently steps the battery voltage up to the USB-OTG-required 5.0V rail. At PVIN=3.3V and VOUT=5V, the device delivers 1.5A continuous output current - more than enough for USB-OTG peripheral charging at 500mA-1A. The integrated output-disconnect feature eliminates leakage current paths during shutdown, extending battery standby time. The 20-ball WLCSP at 2.015 mm x 1.555 mm fits beneath the SoC or PMIC, preserving precious smartphone PCB real estate.

🧩

Wearable Device 3.3V Boost from 1.8V Coin Cell

Wearable health monitors and smartwatches often use 1.8V coin-cell or thin-film batteries that cannot directly power 3.3V Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) SoCs and sensor ICs. The ISL91117IIAZ-T accepts the 1.8V input and boosts it to a stable 3.3V output while drawing only microamps of quiescent current during light loads. The 4.2A switch current rating comfortably supports peak load transients from BLE radio transmissions (typically 30-50mA) and sensor sampling bursts (5-20mA). The synchronous rectifier and true shutdown minimize idle battery drain, critical for multi-week wearable battery life.

💊

Portable Medical Handheld Instrument Power Supply

Handheld medical devices such as glucose meters, pulse oximeters, and infusion pumps run from dual-cell alkaline (3V) or single-cell Li-ion (3.7V) batteries but need a regulated 5V rail to power displays, op-amps, and isolated communication interfaces. The ISL91117IIAZ-T boosts the battery to 5V with 1.5A capability, enough to drive an LCD backlight, audio beeper, and microcontroller simultaneously. The integrated over-temperature and over-current protection features meet IEC 60601 medical safety design expectations. Renesas' long-term reliability track record and the WLCSP-20 miniaturization enable pocket-sized medical form factors.

🏭

Industrial IoT Sensor Node Power Conditioning

Industrial IoT (IIoT) sensor nodes frequently operate from 3.6V lithium-thionyl-chloride (Li-SOCl2) primary batteries that sag under load and cannot directly power 3.3V wireless MCUs. The ISL91117IIAZ-T boosts the variable battery voltage (2.5V-3.6V) to a regulated 3.3V output, supporting continuous sensor operation even as the battery discharges. The 4.2A switch rating accommodates transmit bursts from LoRa, Sigfox, or Wireless MBus radios that can pull 100-300mA during transmission. The 20-ball WLCSP and minimal external component count keep the sensor node BOM small for high-volume industrial deployments.

💡

LED Flash Driver for Camera Phones

Modern smartphone camera flashes require brief high-current pulses (up to 1-2A) to drive high-brightness white LEDs from a single-cell Li-ion battery. The ISL91117IIAZ-T's 4.2A switch current and 1.5A continuous output capability make it suitable for driving LED flash circuits when boosted above the battery voltage. The synchronous topology minimizes thermal dissipation during the brief flash pulse, and the WLCSP package keeps the boost inductor and capacitor loop compact for clean switching. This is a niche but well-documented application in portable-camera product designs.

🎧

Audio Amplifier Supply Rail Boost

Portable audio devices (Bluetooth speakers, headphone amplifiers) often use a single-cell Li-ion battery but need a higher voltage (typically 5V-9V) to drive Class-D or Class-AB audio amplifiers for louder output. The ISL91117IIAZ-T boosts the 3.7V battery to a 5V or 7V rail, providing headroom for amplifier power output. The synchronous rectification delivers 90-95% efficiency, extending playback time. The WLCSP-20 package fits alongside the audio codec in space-constrained portable speaker designs.

⚡

Backup Battery System Boost to 3.3V

Uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) and memory backup systems often use supercapacitor or thin-film batteries that sag from 3.0V to 2.0V during discharge. The ISL91117IIAZ-T boosts the variable backup-battery voltage to a stable 3.3V output, ensuring RTC circuits, SRAM, and monitoring ICs continue operating during main-power outages. The 1.8V minimum input covers deep-discharge supercapacitor scenarios. The integrated output disconnect prevents reverse current flow back into the battery, preserving backup charge for critical power-loss events.

As of 2026-10-08, the ISL91117IIAZ-T ships from stock at major distributors including DigiKey (4833630) and Mouser. Renesas does not currently list the part on allocation, so standard lead time for tape-and-reel quantities is 8-12 weeks factory-direct and immediate from authorized distributors for small to medium quantities. (Source: DigiKey, Mouser stock status.)
Is the ISL91117IIAZ-T the same as the ISL91117IIAZ-T7A?
The ISL91117IIAZ-T and ISL91117IIAZ-T7A are pin-compatible variants of the same ISL91117 family. Both share the 20-ball WLCSP package and identical electrical specifications; the suffix difference reflects tape-and-reel orientation or quantity per reel (T7A = 250-reel, T = 3,000-reel standard). Functionally, the two parts are drop-in replacements for each other on the same PCB footprint. (Source: Renesas ISL91117 family datasheet, OMO Electronic compare.)
What is the best drop-in replacement for the ISL91117IIAZ-T?
The best same-brand drop-in replacement is the ISL91117IIAZ-T7A, which uses the identical 20-ball WLCSP footprint and electrical specifications. For cross-brand alternatives in the same package, engineers should evaluate Renesas ISL91110IIAZ-T and similar Intersil/Renesas boost families; cross-brand WLCSP-20 drop-in equivalents with comparable 4A switch ratings are limited. Always verify pinout compatibility against the ISL91117 datasheet before substituting.
ISL91117IIAZ-T vs ISL91117IIAZ-T7A: which should I choose?
Choose the ISL91117IIAZ-T for prototype and small-batch builds since the standard T-suffix ships in 3,000-unit tape-and-reel format suitable for medium-volume production. Choose the ISL91117IIAZ-T7A if you need only 250-unit reels for small runs or evaluation. Both parts share identical silicon and the same WLCSP-20 footprint, so they are drop-in compatible electrically. The decision is purely packaging logistics, not electrical performance.
Can the ISL91117IIAZ-T be replaced by the TPS61236 from Texas Instruments?
The Texas Instruments TPS61236 is a similar 5V/2A synchronous boost converter but ships in a QFN package, not the WLCSP-20 used by the ISL91117IIAZ-T. They are not drop-in replacements: the land pattern differs, so PCB rework would be required. Engineers seeking a true drop-in should look at same-package WLCSP-20 alternatives such as other ISL9111x family members rather than cross-package substitutes.
Where do I download the ISL91117IIAZ-T datasheet PDF?

According to the Renesas datasheet, the document covers electrical characteristics, pinout, application circuits, and layout guidelines for the entire ISL91117 family. (Source: Renesas official document portal.)
What is the pinout configuration of the ISL91117IIAZ-T WLCSP-20?
The ISL91117IIAZ-T is housed in a 20-ball Wafer-Level Chip-Scale Package (WLCSP/UFBGA) measuring approximately 2.015 mm x 1.555 mm. The ball assignment includes VIN, PGND, SW, VOUT, FB, EN, AGND, and bypass-capacitor balls. For the exact ball map and pin coordinates, refer to the ISL91117 datasheet pin configuration section, as WLCSP pin numbering differs from leaded packages. (Source: Renesas ISL91117 datasheet.)
Is the ISL91117IIAZ-T suitable for smartphone USB-OTG power designs?
Yes, the ISL91117IIAZ-T is ideally suited for smartphone USB-OTG power designs. Its 1.8V-4.8V input range accepts the single-cell Li-ion battery directly, and it boosts the 3.7-4.2V battery to the USB-OTG-required 5V rail with 1.5A output capability. The integrated output disconnect and synchronous rectification improve light-load efficiency, which is critical for battery life in portable applications.
When should I choose the ISL91117IIAZ-T over a buck converter?
Choose the ISL91117IIAZ-T when the load requires a voltage higher than the input supply. The boost (step-up) topology is required when the system battery voltage is below the load voltage - for example, generating 5V from a 3.7V Li-ion cell. If the load voltage is below the battery voltage (such as generating 3.3V from a 4.2V Li-ion), a buck (step-down) converter is more efficient and appropriate.
What is the difference between ISL91117IIAZ-T and ISL91110IIAZ-T?
The ISL91117IIAZ-T is rated for 4.2A switch current with output-disconnect feature, while the ISL91110IIAZ-T is a related family member with different switch current and feature set. Both share the WLCSP-20 footprint for pin-compatible substitution, but engineers must verify the FB resistor divider and ENABLE logic against the target datasheet before substituting. The ISL91117 is the higher-current, output-disconnect variant of the family.
What are the key specifications of the ISL91117IIAZ-T engineers should know?
Engineers evaluating the ISL91117IIAZ-T should focus on six key specifications: input voltage range 1.8V to 4.8V (single Li-ion compatible); 4.2A switch current rating; 1.5A output capability at 3.3V input to 5V output; integrated synchronous rectification; true output disconnect in shutdown; and the 20-ball WLCSP package measuring 2.015 mm x 1.555 mm. These parameters determine battery compatibility, load drive capability, efficiency, and PCB footprint. (Source: Renesas ISL91117 datasheet, Mouser listing.)

Notas de diseño

WLCSP-20 layout requires careful PCB design: keep all bypass and decoupling capacitors within 2 mm of their respective balls. Use a 4-layer PCB with a dedicated ground plane beneath the IC to minimize the high-current switching loop area. The SW node traces must be short and wide (>= 0.5 mm) to reduce parasitic inductance that causes voltage spikes and EMI. Estimated: with 2 mm x 0.3 mm SW traces at 4.2A, expect approximately 10-15 nH of parasitic inductance per trace.

Although the WLCSP package is small, the ISL91117IIAZ-T can dissipate 0.5-1.5W in typical battery-to-5V boost operation. The thermal pad and ground balls carry heat to the PCB; ensure at least 50 mm^2 of copper pour on the top layer connected to PGND and AGND balls for heat spreading. For continuous 1.5A output operation, additional PCB thermal relief or airflow may be required to keep junction temperature below 125C. Estimated: at 1.5A output with 3.3V input to 5V boost, power dissipation is approximately 1.05W (assuming 90% efficiency).

Common ISL91117 design pitfalls include: (1) using an inductor with insufficient saturation current - select >= 5A saturation to handle 4.2A switch transients; (2) omitting the input bypass capacitor - always place >= 10uF ceramic directly at VIN; (3) leaving EN floating - tie EN to VIN through a 100k resistor for default-on operation; (4) ignoring output-disconnect behavior - if your circuit requires the output to remain energized in shutdown, add an external Schottky diode; (5) exceeding absolute maximum VIN of 5.5V during transients. (Source: Renesas ISL91117 datasheet application notes.)

The WLCSP-20 ball map requires exact land pattern matching - refer to the Renesas ISL91117 datasheet land pattern appendix for ball pitch (typically 0.4 mm) and pad diameter recommendations. The SW node balls must connect to the inductor with the shortest possible trace to minimize EMI. Place the input capacitor return via directly to the nearest PGND ball, not to a remote ground point, to keep the high-current loop compact and reduce conducted noise.
