RT7259
10A, 24V, 600kHz Step-Down Converter with Synchronous
Gate Driver
General Description
The RT7259 is a synchronous step-down DC/DC converter
with an integrated high side internal power MOSFET and
a gate driver for a low side external power MOSFET. It
can deliver up to
10A
output current from a 4.5V to 24V
input supply. The RT7259's current mode architecture
allows the transient response to be optimized over a wider
input voltage and load range. Cycle-by-cycle current limit
provides protection against shorted outputs and soft-start
eliminates input current surge during start-up. The RT7259
is synchronizable to an external clock with frequency
ranging from 300kHz to 1.5MHz.
The RT7259 is available in WDFN-14L 4x3package.
