RT8025
1.25MHz, 400mA, High Efficiency PWM Step-Down
DC/DC Converter
General Description
The RT8025 is a high-efficiency pulse-width-modulated
(PWM) step-down DC/DC converter. Capable of delivering
400mA output current over a wide input voltage range from
2.5 to 5.5V, the RT8025 is ideally suited for portable
electronic devices that are powered from 1-cell Li-ion
battery or from other power sources within the range such
as cellular phones, PDAs and handy-terminals.
Internal synchronous rectifier with low R
DS(ON)
dramatically
reduces conduction loss at PWM mode. No external
Schottky diode is required in practical application. The
RT8025 automatically turns off the synchronous rectifier
while the inductor current is low and enters discontinuous
PWM mode. This can increase efficiency at light load
condition.
The RT8025 enters Low-Dropout mode when normal PWM
cannot provide regulated output voltage by continuously
turning on the upper P-MOSFET. RT8025 enter shutdown
mode and consumes less than 0.1μA when EN pin is pulled
low.
The switching ripple is easily smoothed-out by small
package filtering elements due to a fixed operation
frequency of 1.25MHz. This along with small SOT-23-5
and TSOT-23-5 package provides small PCB area
application. Other features include soft start, lower internal
reference voltage with 2% accuracy, over temperature
protection, and over current protection.
