RT7240A
5A, 18V, 650kHz, ACOT® SynchronousStep-Down Converter
General Description
Features
ACOT Mode Enables Fast Transient Response
®
The RT7240Ais a synchronous step-downDC/DC converter
®
4.5V to 18V Input Voltage Range
5A Output Current
withAdvanced Constant On-Time (ACOT ) mode control.
It achieves high power density to deliver up to 5A output
current from a 4.5V to 18V input supply. The proprietary
35mW Internal Low Site N-MOSFET
Advanced Constant On-Time Control
Support All Ceramic Capacitors
Up to 95% Efficiency
®
ACOT mode offers an optimal transient response over a
wide range of loads and all kinds of ceramic capacitors,
which allows the device to adopt very low ESR output
capacitor for ensuring performance stabilization. In
addition, RT7240Akeeps an excellent constant switching
frequency under line and load variation and the integrated
Discontinuous Operating Mode at Light Load
Adjustable Output Voltage from 0.765V to 8V
Adjustable Soft-Start
®
Cycle-by-Cycle Current Limit
Input Under Voltage Lockout
Thermal Shutdown
synchronous power switches with the ACOT mode
operation provides high efficiency in whole output current
load range. Cycle-by-cycle current limit provides an
accurate protection by a valley detection of low side
MOSFET and external soft-start setting eliminates input
current surge during startup.
