Working Principles

The ISL6721AAVZ operates based on the voltage mode PWM control method. It compares the feedback voltage from the FB pin with a reference voltage to generate an error signal. This error signal is then processed to adjust the duty cycle of the PWM signal, which controls the power delivered to the load.

By adjusting the duty cycle, the ISL6721AAVZ regulates the output voltage precisely. It also incorporates adaptive dead-time control to optimize efficiency by minimizing power losses during switching transitions.
