RT6179
36V, 4-Switch Buck-Boost Controller with I2C Interface
General Description
Features
⚫ Support USB-PD 3.0 SPR Mode and 28V of 3.1
The RT6179 is a 4-switch Buck-Boost controller
designed for USB power delivery (USB PD). It operates
with wide input voltage range from 4.5V to 36V, and the
output voltage can be programmable between 3V and
36V. The RT6179 implements peak current mode
control mechanism with the programmable constant
voltage (CV) and constant current (CC) output to
support USB-PD 3.0 SPR mode and 28V of 3.1 EPR
EPR Mode
⚫ Integrated Buck-Boost Controller:
Wide Input Voltage Range: 4.5V to 36V
Wide Output Voltage Range: 3V to 36V
Peak Current Mode Control
Programmable Switching Frequency
(250kHz to 1MHz)

Power Saving Mode Enables Higher Light Load
mode. With an I C compatible interface, the RT6179
Efficiency
supports many programmable functions including
CV/CC output, switching frequency, and cable voltage
drop compensation. Moreover, the RT6179 integrates
fully protection such as input UVLO, over/undervoltage
protection, cycle-by-cycle current limit, short protection,
and over-temperature protection. The RT6179 is
available in a WQFN-40L 5x5 package.
