RT9259A
12V Synchronous Buck PWM DC-DC and Linear Power
Controller
General Description
Features
z Single 12V Bias Supply
The RT9259A is a dual-channel DC/DC controller
specifically designed to deliver high quality power where
12V power source is available. This part consists of a
synchronous buck controller and an LDO controller. The
synchronous buck controller integrates MOSFET drivers
that support 12V+12V bootstrapped voltage for high
efficiency power conversion. The bootstrap diode is built-
in to simplify the circuit design and minimize external part
count. The LDO controller drives an external N-MOSFET
for lower power requirement.
z Support Dual Channel Power Conversion
`One Synchronous Rectified Buck PWM Controller
`One Linear Controller
z Both Controllers Drive Low Cost N-Channel
MOSFETs
z Adjustable Frequency from 150kHz to 1MHz
and Free-Run Frequency at 230kHz
z Small External Component Count
z Output Voltage Regulation
`PWM Controller : 1% Accuracy
`LDO Controller : 2% Accuracy
Other features include adjustable operation frequency,
internal soft start, under voltage protection, over current
protection and shut down function. With the above
functions, this part provides customers a compact, high
efficiency, well-protected and cost-effective solution. This
part comes to SOP-14 package.
z Two Internal VREF Power Support Lower to 0.8V
z Adjustable External Compensation
