Pin Function
Power good indicator. The output of this pin is an open-drain with external
pull-up resistor. PGOOD is pulled up when the FB voltage is within 90%,
otherwise it is LOW.
Enable control input.
Supply voltage input. The RT5712E operates from a 2.7V to 6V input.
Switch node.
Ground. The exposed pad must be soldered to a large PCB and connected to
GND for maximum thermal dissipation.

Operation
The RT5712E is a synchronous low voltage step-down
converter that can support the input voltage range from
2.7V to 6V and the output current can be up to 2A. The
RT5712E uses a constant on-time, current mode
architecture. In normal operation, the high side
P-MOSFET is turned on when the switch controller is
set by the comparator and is turned off when the Ton
comparator resets the switch controller.
Low side MOSFET peak current is measured by
internal RSENSE. The error amplifier EA adjusts
COMP voltage by comparing the feedback signal (V
FB
)
from the output voltage with the internal 0.6V reference.
When the load current increases, it causes a drop in
the feedback voltage relative to the reference, then the
COMP voltage rises to allow higher inductor current to
match the load current.

UV Comparator
If the feedback voltage (V
FB
) is lower than threshold
voltage 0.2V, the UV comparator's output will go high
and the switch controller will turn off the high side
MOSFET. The output under voltage protection is
designed to operate in Hiccup and Latch-off mode.
PGOOD Comparator
When the feedback voltage (V
FB
) is higher than
threshold voltage 0.54V, the PGOOD open drain output
will be high impedance. The internal PGOOD MOSFET
is typical 100. The PGOOD signal delay time from EN
is about 2ms.
