Introduction General Product Information The RT5710C is a high efficiency synchronous step-down DC/DC converter. Its input voltage range is from 2.5V to 5.5V and provides an adjustable regulated output voltage from 0.6V to 3.4V while delivering up to 1A of output current. The internal synchronous low on-resistance power switches increase efficiency and eliminate the need for an external Schottky diode. The Current Mode Constant-On-time (CMCOT) operation with internal compensation allows the transient response to be optimized over a wide range of loads and output capacitors.

Bench Test Setup Conditions Headers Description and Placement Please carefully inspect the EVB IC and external components, comparing them to the following Bill of Materials, to ensure that all components are installed and undamaged. If any components are missing or damaged during transportation, please contact the distributor or send e-mail to evb_service@richtek.com Test Points The EVB is provided with the test points and pin names listed in the table below. Test point/Pin name Signal Comment (expected waveforms or voltage levels on test points) VIN Input voltage Supply Voltage Input. EN Enable test point Enable control input. GND Ground Ground. The exposed pad must be soldered to a large PCB and connected to GND for maximum thermal dissipation. IC No internal connection FB Feedback LX Switch node test point Switch node. Power-up & Measurement Procedure 1. Apply a 3.3V nominal input power supply (2.5V < VIN < 5.5V) to the VIN and GND terminals. 2. Set the jumper at JP1 to connect terminals 2 and 3, connecting EN to enable operation. 3. Verify the output voltage (approximately 1.2V) between VOUT and GND. 4. Connect an external load up to 1A to the VOUT and GND terminals and verify the output voltage and current. Output Voltage Setting Set the output voltage with the resistive divider (R2, R3) between VOUT and GND with the midpoint connected to FB. The output is set by the following formula : VOUT = 0.6 x (1 + R2 ) R3 EVB_RT5710CHGQW-00 October 2015 3 http://www.richtek.com RT5710CHGQW Evaluation Board your power partner.
