RT6278A/B
23V, 8A, 500kHz ACOTTM Synchronous Step-Down Converter
General Description
Features
8A Converter With Built-In 24mΩ/12mΩ Low RDS(ON)
Power FETs
The RT6278A/B is a simple, easy-to-use, 8Asynchronous
step-downDC-DC converter with an input supply voltage
range of 4.5V to 23V. The device build-in an accurate 0.6V
reference voltage and integrates low RDS(ON) power
MOSFETs to achieve high efficiency in a UQFN-12HL 3x3
package. The RT6278A/B adoptsAdvanced Constant On-
Time (ACOTTM) control architecture to provide an ultrafast
transient response with few external components and to
operate in nearly constant switching frequency over the
line, load, and output voltage range. The RT6278Aoperates
in automatic PSM that maintains high efficiency during
light load operation. The RT6278B operates in Forced
PWM that helps meet tight voltage regulation accuracy
requirements. The RT6278A/B senses both FETs current
for a robust over-current protection. It features cycle-by-
cycle current limit protection and prevent the device from
the catastrophic damage in output short circuit, over current
or inductor saturation.Abuilt-in soft-start function prevents
inrush current during start-up. The device also includes
input under-voltage lockout, output under-voltage
protection, over-voltage protection, and over-temperature
protection (thermal shutdown) to provide safe and smooth
operation in all operating conditions. The RT6278A/B is
offered in a UQFN-12HL 3x3(FC) package.
