RT7272A
3A, 36V, 500kHz Synchronous Step-Down Converter
General Description
Features
z 4.5V to 36V Input Voltage Range
The RT7272A is a high efficiency, current mode
synchronous step-downDC/DC converter that can deliver
up to 3A output current over a wide input voltage range
from 4.5V to 36V. The device integrates a 150mΩ high
side and a 80mΩ low side MOSFET to achieve high
conversion efficiency up to 95%. The current mode control
architecture supports fast transient response and simple
compensation circuit.
z 3A Output Current
z Internal N-MOSFETs
z Current Mode Control
z Fixed Frequency Operation : 500kHz
z Adjustable Output Voltage from 0.8V to 30V
z High Efficiency Up to 95%
z Stable with Low ESR Ceramic Output Capacitors
z Cycle-by-Cycle Current Limit
z Input Under Voltage Lockout
z Output Under Voltage Protection
z Thermal Shutdown Protection
z Adjustable Current Limit
A cycle-by-cycle current limit function provides protection
against shorted output and an internal soft-start eliminates
input current surge during start-up. The RT7272A provides
complete protection functions such as input under voltage
lockout, output under voltage protection, over current
protection and thermal shutdown.
z RoHS Compliant and Halogen Free
The RT7272Ais available in the thermal enhanced SOP-8
(Exposed Pad) package.
Applications
z Distributed Power Systems
z Pre-Regulator for Linear Regulators
