Introduction General Product Information The RT6208 is a high-efficiency, monolithic synchronous step-down DC/DC converter that can deliver up to 100mA output current from a 4.5V to 36V input supply. It requires only 25µA typical supply current at no load while maintaining output voltage regulation. The RT6208 achieves Boundary Conduction Mode (BCM) operation, low quiescent current and programmable high-side peak current limit, providing high efficiency over a wide range of load currents. It also provides soft-start protection to eliminate input current surge during start-up. The low current (3µA) shutdown mode provides output disconnect, enabling easy power management in battery-powered systems. The RT6208 is available in a SOT-23-6, SOT-23-8 and SOP-8 (Exposed Pad, with power good function) packages.

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 Input voltage range = 4.5V to 36V VOUT Output voltage Default output voltage : 1.8V, 3.3V, 5V Optional Output voltage range = 0.8V to 5V SW Switching node test point SW waveform EN Enable test point Driving the EN pin high (>1.4V) will turn on the device again. Leaving the EN pin floating will pull the EN pin up to 2V internally and enable RT6208. ISET High-Side Peak Current Set Pin A resistor from this pin to GND sets the high-side peak current limit. Leave floating for the maximum peak current, 225mA. Short this pin to GND for the minimum peak current, 50mA. GND Ground Ground Power-up & Measurement Procedure 1. Apply a 12V nominal input power supply (4.5V < VIN < 36V) to the VIN and GND terminals. 2. There are 2-pin header 1.8V, 3.3V and 5V for output voltage. To use a jumper choose the output voltage level. 3. Verify the output voltage (approximately 1.8V, 3.3, 5.0V) between VOUT and GND. 4. Connect an external load up to 100mA to the VOUT and GND terminals and verify the output voltage and current.
