The Richtek RT7736EGE is an advanced current-mode and circuit protection controller designed for automotive power converters. It is specifically designed to protect low and mid-voltage DC-DC converters from a variety of fault conditions including overload, overvoltage, under voltage, and thermal overload. It features a wide operating temperature range (-40°C to +125°C) and advanced current-mode switching with programmable overcurrent protection, enabling it to provide the highest level of current-mode performance and protection for automotive applications. The RT7736EGE also includes unique features such as a proprietary thermal drift compensation, enhanced transient response, and pulse-width modulation (PWM) frequency flexibility. Additionally, the controller provides an autonomous fast-shutdown capability, enabling it to detect an over-current event and shut down quickly, protecting the system.
