RT2862
3A, 36V, Synchronous Step-Down Converter
General Description
The RT2862 is a high efficiency, current-mode
synchronous step-down DC/DC converter that can deliver
up to 3A output current over a wide input voltage range
from 4.5V to 36V. The device integrates 105mΩ high-side
and 80mΩ low-side MOSFETs to achieve high conversion
efficiency. The current-mode control architecture supports
fast transient response and simple external compensation.
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 RT2862 provides
complete protection functions such as input under-voltage
lockout, output under-voltage protection, over-current
protection and thermal shutdown.
The RT2862 is available in the thermal enhanced SOP-8
(Exposed Pad) package.
