RT8250
3A, 23V, 340kHz Synchronous Step-Down Converter
General Description
Features
ꢀ 4.5V to 23V Input Voltage Range
The RT8250 is a high-efficiency synchronous step-down
DC/DC converter that can deliver up to 3Aoutput current
from 4.5V to 23V input supply. The RT8250's current mode
architecture and external compensation allow the transient
response to be optimized over a wide range of loads and
output capacitors. Cycle-by-cycle current limit provides
protection against shorted outputs and soft-start eliminates
input current surge during start-up. The RT8250 also
provides output under voltage protection and thermal
shutdown protection. The low current (<3μA) shutdown
mode provides output disconnection, enabling easy power
management in battery-powered systems.
