RT2805A 5A, 36V, 500kHz Current Mode Asynchronous Step-Down Converter General Description Features zz z zz 5A Output Current The RT2805A is a current mode asynchronous step-down zz z zz Wide Operating Input Range 5.5V to 36V converter that achieves excellent load and line regulation. zz z zz Adjustable Output Voltage from 1.222V to 26V Over a wide input voltage range from 5.5V to 36V and zz z zz High Efficiency up to 90% supports output current up to 5A. The Current mode zz z zz Internal Compensation Minimizes External Parts operation provides fast transient response and eases loop Count stabilization. zz z zz Internal Soft-Start An adjustable soft-start reduces the stress on the input zz z zz 110m Internal Power MOSFET Switch source at startup. In shutdown mode, the regulator draws zz z zz 25A Shutdown Mode only 25A of supply current. The RT2805A requires a zz z zz Fixed 500kHz Frequency minimum number of readily available external zz z zz Thermal Shutdown components, providing a compact solution. The RT2805A zz z zz Cycle-by-Cycle Current Limit provides protection functions inducing input under voltage zz z zz Available In an SOP8 (Exposed Pad) Package lockout, cycle-by-cycle current limit, short circuit zz z zz RoHS Compliant and Halogen Free protection and thermal shutdown protection. The RT2805A is available in the SOP-8 (Exposed Pad) Applications package. z Distributive Power Systems z Battery Charger Ordering Information z DSL Modems RT2805A z Pre-regulator for Linear Regulators Package Type SP : SOP-8 (Exposed Pad-Option 2) Marking Information Lead Plating System G : Green (Halogen Free and Pb Free) RT2805AGSP : Product Number RT2805A Note : YMDNN : Date Code GSPYMDNN Richtek products are : RoHS compliant and compatible with the current require- ments of IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020.

EN is a digital input that turns the regulator on or off. Drive EN 5 EN higher than 1.4V to turn on the regulator, lower than 0.4V to turn it off. For automatic startup, leave EN unconnected. 6, Ground. The exposed pad must be soldered to a large PCB and connected to GND 9 (Exposed Pad) GND for maximum power dissipation. Power Input. A suitable large capacitor should be connected from the VIN to 7 VIN GND to eliminate noise on the input to the IC. Switch Node. Note that a capacitor is required from SW to BOOT to power the 8 SW high side switch.
