RT6202A/B TM 5A, 18V, 650kHz, ACOT Synchronous Step-Down Converter General Description Features TM ACOT Mode Enables Fast Transient Response The RT6202A/B is a synchronous step-down DC/DC TM 4.5V to 18V Input Voltage Range converter with Advanced Constant On-Time (ACOT ) 5A Output Current mode control. It achieves high power density to deliver up 35m Internal Low Side N-MOSFET to 5A output current from a 4.5V to 18V input supply. The TM Advanced Constant On-Time Control proprietary ACOT mode offers an optimal transient Support All Ceramic Capacitors response over a wide range of loads and all kinds of ceramic Up to 95% Efficiency capacitors, which allows the device to adopt very low ESR 650kHz Switching Frequency at all Load Current output capacitor for ensuring performance stabilization. In (RT6202B) addition, RT6202A/B keeps an excellent constant Discontinuous Operating Mode at Light Load switching frequency under line and load variation and the TM (RT6202A) integrated synchronous power switches with the ACOT Adjustable Output Voltage from 0.765V to 8V mode operation provides high efficiency in whole output Adjustable Soft-Start current load range. Cycle-by-cycle current limit provides Cycle-by-Cycle Current Limit an accurate protection by a valley detection of low side Input Under Voltage Lockout MOSFET and external soft-start setting eliminates input Thermal Shutdown current surge during startup. Protection functions include RoHS Compliant and Halogen Free thermal shutdown for RT6202A/B. The RT6202A/B are available in the SOP-8 (Exposed Pad) Applications package.

Suitable for use in SnPb or Pb-free soldering processes. Functional Pin Description Pin No. Pin Name Pin Function Enable Control Input. A logic-high enables the converter a logic-low forces the 1 EN IC into shutdown mode reducing the supply current to less than 10 A. Feedback Voltage Input. It is used to regulate the output of the converter to a 2 FB set value via an external resistive voltage divider. The feedback threshold voltage is 0.765V typically. Internal Regulator Output. Connect a 1 F capacitor to GND to stabilize output 3 VREG5 voltage. Soft-Start Time Setting. Connect an external capacitor between this pin and GND 4 SS to set the soft- start time. 5, 9 Power Ground. The exposed pad must be soldered to a large PCB and GND (Exposed Pad) connected to GND for maximum power dissipation. 6 SW Switch Node. Connect this pin to an external L-C filter. Bootstrap Supply for High Side Gate Driver. Connect a 0.1 F capacitor 7 BOOT between the BOOT and SW pin. Power Input. The input voltage range is from 4.5V to 18V. Must bypass with a 8 VIN suitably large ( 10F x 2) ceramic capacitor. Copyright 2013 Richtek Technology Corporation.
