RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F
2A, 1.2MHz, 6V Synchronous Step-Down Converter in
SOT-563 (FC) and UDFN-6L 1.4x1 (FC)
General Description
Features
The RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F is a simple, easy-to-use, 2A
synchronous step-down DC-DC converter with an input
supply voltage range from 2.5V to 6V. The device builds
in an accurate 0.6V reference voltage and integrates low
RDS(ON) power MOSFETs to achieve high efficiency in SOT563 (FC) and UDFN-6L 1.4x1 (FC) packages.
The RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F adopts Advanced Constant OnTime (ACOT®) control architecture to provide an ultrafast
transient response with few external components and to
operate in nearly constant switching frequency over the
line, load, and output voltage range. The RT5762A/C/E
operates in automatic PSM that maintains high efficiency
during light load operation. The RT5762B/D/F operates in
Forced PWM that helps to meet tight voltage regulation
accuracy requirements.
The RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F senses both FETs current for a
robust over-current protection. The device features cycleby-cycle current limit protection which prevents the device
from the catastrophic damage in output short circuit, over
current or inductor saturation. A built-in soft-start function
prevents inrush current during start-up. The device also
includes input under-voltage lockout, output under-voltage
protection, over-voltage protection (RT5762AL/BL/CL/DL/
EL/FL) and over-temperature protection to provide safe
and smooth operation in all operating conditions.

RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F
Operation
The RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F is a high-efficiency, synchronous
step-down DC-DC converter that delivers up to 2A output
current from a 2.5V to 6V input supply.
Advanced Constant On-Time Control and PWM
Operation
The RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F adopts ACOT® control for its
ultrafast transient response, low external component
counts and stable with low ESR MLCC output capacitors.
When the feedback voltage falls below the feedback
reference voltage, the minimum off-time one-shot (90ns,
typ.) has timed out and the inductor current is below the
current limit threshold, then the internal on-time one-shot
circuitry is triggered and the high-side switch is turned
on. Since the minimum off-time is short, the device exhibits
ultrafast transient response and enables the use of smaller
output capacitance.
The on-time is inversely proportional to input voltage and
directly proportional to output voltage to achieve pseudofixed frequency over the input voltage range. After the ontime one-shot timer is expired, the high-side switch is
turned off and the low-side switch is turned on until the
on-time one-shot is triggered again. In the steady state,
the error amplifier compares the feedback voltage VFB and
an internal reference voltage. If the virtual inductor current
ramp voltage is lower than the output of the error amplifier,
a new pre-determined fixed on-time will be triggered by
the on-time one-shot generator.
Power Saving Mode
The RT5762A/C/E automatically enters power saving mode
(PSM) at light load to maintain high efficiency. As the
load current decreases and eventually the inductor current
ripple valley touches the zero current, which is the
boundary between continuous conduction and
discontinuous conduction modes. The low-side switch is
turned off when the zero inductor current is detected. As
the load current is further decreased, it takes longer time
to discharge the output capacitor to the level that requires
the next on-time. The switching frequency decreases and
is proportional to the load current to maintain high
efficiency at light load.

Enable Control
The RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F provides an EN pin, as an external
chip enable control, to enable or disable the device. If VEN
is held below a logic-low threshold voltage (VEN_L) of the
enable input (EN), the converter will disable output voltage,
that is, the converter is disabled and switching is inhibited
even if the VIN voltage is above VIN under-voltage lockout
threshold (VUVLO). During shutdown mode, the supply
current can be reduced to ISHDN (15μA or below). If the EN
voltage rises above the logic-high threshold voltage (VEN_H)
while the VIN voltage is higher than UVLO threshold, the
device will be turned on, that is, switching being enabled
and soft-start sequence being initiated.
Soft-Start (SS)
The RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F provides an internal soft-start
feature for inrush control. At power up, the internal capacitor
is charged by an internal current source to generate a
soft-start ramp voltage as a reference voltage to the PWM
comparator. The device will initiate switching and the
output voltage will smoothly ramp up to its targeted
regulation voltage only after this ramp voltage is greater
than the feedback voltage VFB to ensure the converters
have a smooth start-up from pre-biased output. The output
voltage starts to rise in 220μs/50μs (Typ.) from EN rising,
and the soft-start ramp-up time (0%VOUT to 95%VOUT) is
1.5ms/120μs (Typ.).

RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F
Maximum Duty Cycle Operation
The RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F is designed to operate in dropout
at the high duty cycle approaching 100%. If the operational
duty cycle is large and the required off-time becomes
smaller than minimum off-time, the RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F
starts to enable skip off-time function and keeps highside MOSFET switch on continuously. The RT5762A/B/
C/D/E/F implements skip off-time function to achieve high
duty approaching 100%. Therefore, the maximum output
voltage is near the minimum input supply voltage of the
application for input voltage momentarily falls down to the
normal output voltage requirement. The input voltage at
which the devices enter dropout changes depending on
the input voltage, output voltage, switching frequency, load
current, and the efficiency of the design.
Power Good Indication
The RT5762A/B/E/F features an open-drain power-good
output (PG) to monitor the output voltage status. The
output delay of comparator prevents false flag operation
for short excursions in the output voltage, such as during
line and load transients. Pull-up PG with a resistor to VIN
or an external voltage below 6V. When VIN voltage rises
above VUVLO, the power-good function is activated. After
soft-start is finished, the PG pin is controlled by a
comparator connected to the feedback signal VFB. If VFB
rises above a power-good high threshold (VTH_PGLH)
(typically 90% of the reference voltage), the PG pin will
be in high impedance and VPG will be held high. When
VFB falls short of power-good low threshold (VTH_PGHL)
(typically 85% of the reference voltage), the PG pin will
be pulled low. Once being started-up, if any internal
protection is triggered, PG will be pulled low to GND. The
internal open-drain pull-down device will pull the PG pin
low. The power good indication profile is shown below.

Input Under-Voltage Lockout
In addition to the EN pin, the RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F also
provides enable control through the VIN pin. If VEN rises
above VENH first, switching will still be inhibited until the
VIN voltage rises above VUVLO. It is to ensure that the
internal regulator is ready so that operation with not-fullyenhanced internal MOSFET switches can be prevented.
After the device is powered up, if the input voltage VIN
goes below the UVLO falling threshold voltage (VUVLO −
ΔVUVLO), this switching will be inhibited; if VIN rises above
the UVLO rising threshold (VUVLO), the device will resume
normal operation with a complete soft-start.
The Over-Current Protection
The RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F features cycle-by-cycle currentlimit protection on both the high-side and low-side
MOSFETs and the protection prevents the device from
the catastrophic damage in output short circuit, over current
or inductor saturation.
The high-side MOSFET over-current protection is achieved
by an internal current comparator that monitors the current
in the high-side MOSFET during each on-time. The switch
current is compared with the high-side switch peak-current
limit (ILIM_H) after a certain amount of delay when the highside switch being turned on each cycle. If an over-current
condition occurs, the converter will immediately turn off
the high-side switch and turn on the low-side switch to
prevent the inductor current from exceeding the high-side
current limit.
The low-side MOSFET over-current protection is achieved
by measuring the inductor current through the
synchronous rectifier (low-side switch) during the low-side
on-time. Once the current rises above the low-side switch
valley current limit (ILIM_L), the on-time one-shot will be

RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F
inhibited until the inductor current ramps down to the
current limit level (ILIM_L), that is, another on-time can only
be triggered when the inductor current goes below the
low-side current limit. If the output load current exceeds
the available inductor current (clamped by the low-side
current limit), the output capacitor needs to supply the
extra current such that the output voltage will begin to
drop. If it drops below the output under-voltage protection
threshold, the IC will stop switching to avoid excessive
heat.

will shut down for tHICCUP_OFF (5ms/50μs, typ.), and then
attempt to recover automatically for tHICCUP_ON
(1ms/
400μs, typ.). Upon completion of the soft-start sequence,
if the fault condition is removed, the converter will resume
normal operation; otherwise, such cycle for auto-recovery
will be repeated until the fault condition is cleared. Hiccup
mode allows the circuit to operate safely with low input
current and power dissipation, and then resume normal
operation as soon as the over-load or short-circuit
condition is removed. A short-circuit protection and
recovery profile is shown below.

Figure 2. Over-Current Protection
Output Active Discharge
When the RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F is disabled by EN pin,
UVLO or OTP, the device discharges the output capacitors
(via SW pins) through an internal discharge resistor
connected to ground. This function prevents the reverse
current flow from the output capacitors to the input
capacitors once the input voltage collapses. It doesn't need
to rely on another active discharge circuit for discharging
output capacitors. This function will be turned off when
the fault condition is removed.
Output Under-Voltage Protection
The RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F includes output under-voltage
protection (UVP) against over-load or short-circuited
condition by constantly monitoring the feedback voltage
VFB. If VFB drops below the under-voltage protection
threshold (typically 40% of the internal feedback reference
voltage), the UV comparator will go high to turn off both
the internal high-side and low-side MOSFET switches.
The RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F will enter output under-voltage
protection with hiccup mode. During hiccup mode, the IC

RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F
Output Over-Voltage Protection
The RT5762A/B/C/D/E/FL includes an output over-voltage
protection (OVP) circuit to limit output voltage and
minimize output voltage overshoot. If the VFB goes above
the 120% of the reference voltage, the high-side MOSFET
will be forced off to limit the output voltage then the IC will
be into Latch-off mode.
Thermal Shutdown
The RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F includes an over-temperature
protection (OTP) circuitry to prevent overheating due to
excessive power dissipation. The OTP will shut down
switching operation when junction temperature exceeds
a thermal shutdown threshold (TSD). Once the junction
temperature cools down by a thermal shutdown
hysteresis (ΔTSD), the IC will resume normal operation
with a complete soft-start.
Note that the over-temperature protection is intended to
protect the device during momentary overload conditions.
The protection is activated outside of the absolute
maximum range of operation as a secondary fail-safe and
therefore should not be relied upon operationally.
Continuous operation above the specified absolute
maximum operating junction temperature may impair
device reliability or permanently damage the device.
Negative Over-Current Limit (RT5762B/D/F)
The RT5762B/D/F is the part which is forced to PWM and
allows negative current operation. In case of PWM
operation, high negative current may be generated as an
external power source which is tied to output terminal
unexpectedly. As the risk described above, the internal
circuit monitors negative current in each on-time interval
of low-side MOSFET and compares it with NOC threshold.
Once the negative current exceeds the NOC threshold,
the low-side MOSFET is turned off immediately, and then
the high-side MOSFET will be turned on to discharge the
energy of output inductor. This behavior can keep the valley
of negative current at NOC threshold to protect low-side
MOSFET. However, the negative current can't be limited
at NOC threshold anymore since minimum off-time is
reached.

Application Information
The output stage of a synchronous buck converter is
composed of an inductor and capacitor, which stores and
delivers energy to the load, and forms a second-order lowpass filter to smooth out the switch node voltage to
maintain a regulated output voltage.
current limit of the device rather than the inductor peak
current.
For EMI sensitive application, choosing shielding type
inductor is preferred.
Input Capacitor Selection
Inductor Selection
The inductor selection trade-offs among size, cost,
efficiency, and transient response requirements. Generally,
three key inductor parameters are specified for operation
with the device: inductance value (L), inductor saturation
current (ISAT), and DC resistance (DCR).
A good compromise between size and loss is to choose
the peak-to-peak ripple current equals to 20% to 50% of
the IC rated current. The switching frequency, input
voltage, output voltage, and selected inductor ripple current
determines the inductor value as follows :
V
(VIN VOUT )
L = OUT
VIN fSW IL
Once an inductor value is chosen, the ripple current (ΔIL)
is calculated to determine the required peak inductor
current.
V
(VIN VOUT )
IL = OUT
VIN fSW L
IL_PEAK = IOUT_MAX + 1 IL
2
IL(PEAK) should not exceed the minimum value of IC's upper
current limit level. Besides, the current flowing through
the inductor is the inductor ripple current plus the output
current. During power up, faults or transient load
conditions, the inductor current can increase above the
calculated peak inductor current level calculated above.
In transient conditions, the inductor current can increase
up to the switch current limit of the device. For this reason,
the most conservative approach is to specify an inductor
with a saturation current rating equal to or greater than
the switch current limit rather than the peak inductor
current.
Input capacitance, CIN, is needed to filter the pulsating
current at the drain of the high-side power MOSFET. CIN
should be sized to do this without causing a large variation
in input voltage. The waveform of CIN ripple voltage and
ripple current are shown in Figure 4. The peak-to-peak
voltage ripple on input capacitor can be estimated as
equation below :
+ IOUT ESR
VCIN = D IOUT 1 D
CIN fSW
where
V
D = OUT
VIN
For ceramic capacitors, the equivalent series resistance
(ESR) is very low, the ripple which is caused by ESR can
be ignored, and the minimum input capacitance can be
estimated as equation below :
D 1 D
CIN_MIN = IOUT_MAX
VCIN_MAX fSW
where ΔVCIN_MAX is maximum input ripple voltage.

Figure 4. CIN Ripple Voltage and Ripple Current
For the selected inductor, the inductor’s saturation and
thermal rating should meet or greater than the ripple
current (ΔIL). For more conservative, the rating for inductor
saturation current must be equal to or greater than switch

RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F
In addition, the input capacitor needs to have a very low
ESR and must be rated to handle the worst-case RMS
input current of :
V
VIN
IRMS IOUT _MAX OUT
1
VIN
VOUT
It is common to use the worse IRMS ≅ IOUT/2 at VIN =
2VOUT for design. Note that ripple current ratings from
capacitor manufacturers are often based on only 2000
hours of life which makes it advisable to further de-rate
the capacitor, or choose a capacitor rated at a higher
temperature than required.
Several capacitors may also be paralleled to meet size,
height and thermal requirements in the design. For low
input voltage applications, sufficient bulk input capacitance
is needed to minimize transient effects during output load
changes.
Ceramic capacitors are ideal for switching regulator
applications because of its small size, robustness and
very low ESR. However, care must be taken when these
capacitors are used at the input. A ceramic input capacitor
combined with trace or cable inductance forms a high
quality (under damped) tank circuit. If the RT5762A/B/C/
D/E/F circuit is plugged into a live supply, the input voltage
can ring to twice its nominal value, possibly exceeding
the device's rating. This situation is easily avoided by
placing the low ESR ceramic input capacitor in parallel
with a bulk capacitor with higher ESR to damp the voltage
ringing.
The input capacitor should be placed as close as possible
to the VIN pins, with a low inductance connection to the
GND of the IC. In addition to a larger bulk capacitor, a
small ceramic capacitors of 0.1μF should be placed close
to the VIN and GND pin. This capacitor should be 0402 or
0603 in size.
Output Capacitor Selection
The RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F are optimized for ceramic output
capacitors and best performance will be obtained by using
them. The total output capacitance value is usually
determined by the desired output voltage ripple level and
transient response requirements for sag (undershoot on
load apply) and soar (overshoot on load release).

function of the inductor current ripple going through the
output capacitor's impedance. To derive the output voltage
ripple, the output capacitor with capacitance, COUT, and
its equivalent series resistance, RESR, must be taken into
consideration. The output peak-to-peak ripple voltage
VRIPPLE, caused by the inductor current ripple ΔIL, is
characterized by two components, which are ESR ripple
VRIPPLE(ESR) and capacitive ripple VRIPPLE(C), and can be
expressed as below :
VRIPPLE = VRIPPLE(ESR) VRIPPLE(C)
VRIPPLE(ESR) = IL RESR
VRIPPLE(C) =
IL
8 COUT fSW
If ceramic capacitors are used as the output capacitors,
both the components need to be considered due to the
extremely low ESR and relatively small capacitance.
Output Transient Undershoot and Overshoot
In addition to voltage ripple at the switching frequency,
the output capacitor and its ESR also affect the voltage
sag (undershoot) and soar (overshoot) when the load steps
up and down abruptly. The ACOT® transient response is
very quick and output transients are usually small. The
following section shows how to calculate the worst-case
voltage swings in response to very fast load steps.
The output voltage transient undershoot and overshoot each
have two components : the voltage steps caused by the
output capacitor's ESR, and the voltage sag and soar due
to the finite output capacitance and the inductor current
slew rate. Use the following formula to check if the ESR
is low enough (typically not a problem with ceramic
capacitors) and the output capacitance is large enough to
prevent excessive sag and soar on very fast load step
edges, with the chosen inductor value.
The amplitude of the ESR step up or down is a function of
the load step and the ESR of the output capacitor :
VESR _STEP = ΔIOUT x RESR
The amplitude of the capacitive sag is a function of the
load step, the output capacitor value, the inductor value,
the input-to-output voltage differential, and the maximum
duty cycle. The maximum duty cycle during a fast transient

RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F
is a function of the on-time and the minimum off-time since
the ACOT® control scheme will ramp the current using
on-times spaced apart with minimum off-times, which is
as fast as allowed. Calculate the approximate on-time
(neglecting parasites) and maximum duty cycle for a given
input and output voltage as :
VOUT
tON
t ON =
and DMAX =
VIN fSW
tON tOFF_MIN
The actual on-time will be slightly longer as the IC
compensates for voltage drops in the circuit, but we can
neglect both of these since the on-time increase
compensates for the voltage losses. Calculate the output
voltage sag as :
VSAG =
L (IOUT )2
2 COUT VIN(MIN) DMAX VOUT
The amplitude of the capacitive soar is a function of the
load step, the output capacitor value, the inductor value
and the output voltage :
VSOAR =

EN Pin for Start-Up and Shutdown Operation
For automatic start-up, the EN pin can be connected to
the input supply VIN directly. The large built-in hysteresis
band makes the EN pin useful for simple delay and timing
circuits. The EN pin can be externally connected to VIN
by adding a resistor REN and a capacitor CEN, as shown in
Figure 6, to have an additional delay. The time delay can
be calculated with the EN's internal threshold, at which
switching operation begins.
An external MOSFET can be added for the EN pin to be
logic-controlled, as shown in Figure 7. In this case, a pullup resistor, REN, is connected between VIN and the EN
pin. The MOSFET Q1 will be under logic control to pull
down the EN pin. To prevent the device being enabled
when VIN is smaller than the VOUT target level or some
other desired voltage level, a resistive divider (REN1 and
REN2) can be used to externally set the input under-voltage
lockout threshold, as shown in Figure 8.

Because some modern digital loads can exhibit nearly
instantaneous load changes, the amplitude of the ESR
step up or down should be taken into consideration.

Power-Good Output
The PG pin is an open-drain power-good indication output
and is to be connected to an external voltage source
through a pull-up resistor.
The external voltage source can be an external voltage
supply below 6V, VCC or the output of the RT5762A/B/C/
D/E/F if the output voltage is regulated under 6V. It is
recommended to connect a 100kΩ between external
voltage source to PG pin.
the excitation frequency is sufficient. It is important that
the converter operates in PWM mode, outside the light
load efficiency range, and below any current limit threshold.
A load transient from 30% to 60% of maximum load is
reasonable which is shown in Figure 10.
fCO
Feedforward Capacitor (CFF)
The RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F is optimized for low duty-cycle
applications, and the control loop is stable with low ESR
ceramic output capacitors. This optimization makes circuit
easily to achieve stability with reasonable output
capacitors, but it also narrows the optimization of transient
responses of the converter. In higher duty-cycle
applications (higher output voltages or lower input voltage),
the internal ripple signal will increase in amplitude. Before
the ACOT® control loop can react to an output voltage
fluctuation, the voltage change on the feedback signal must
exceed the internal ripple amplitude. Because of the large
internal ripple in this condition, the response may become
too slow and may show an under-damped response. This
can cause some ringing in the output and is especially
visible at higher output voltage applications where dutycycle is high. The feedback network attenuation is large,
adding to the delay. As shown in Figure 9, adding a
feedforward capacitor (CFF) across the upper feedback
resistor is recommended. This increases the damping of
the control system.

The loop bandwidth can be obviously extended by the
optimized feedforward capacitor, while the control system
is still maintaining an acceptable stability. However, the
inappropriate feedforward capacitor might cause the
insufficient gain margin or phase margin result in the
control system to be instability. Therefore, the feedforward
capacitor should be designed in a good compromise
between loop bandwidth improvement and acceptable
stability.
Note that, after defining the CFF, please also check the
load regulation because the feedforward capacitor might
inject an offset voltage into VOUT to cause VOUT inaccuracy.
If the output voltage is over specification caused by
calculated CFF, please decrease the value of feedforward
capacitor CFF.
Figure 11. shows the transient performance with and
without feedforward capacitor.
Figure 9. Feedback Loop with Feedforward Capacitor
Loop stability can be checked by viewing the load transient
response. A load step with a speed that exceeds the
converter bandwidth must be applied. For ACOT®, loop
bandwidth can be in the order of 100 to 200kHz, so a load
step with 500ns maximum rise time (di/dt 2A/μs) ensures

The thermal resistance of the device strongly depends on
the surrounding PCB layout and can be improved by
providing a heat sink of surrounding copper ground. The
addition of backside copper with thermal vias, stiffeners,
and other enhancements can also help reduce thermal
resistance.
Experiments in the Richtek thermal lab show that simply
set θJA(EFFECTIVE) as 110% to 120% of the θJA is reasonable
to obtain the allowed PD(MAX).

Thermal Considerations
In many applications, the RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F does not
generate much heat due to its high efficiency and low
thermal resistance of its SOT-563 (FC) and UDFN-6L 1.4x1
(FC) packages. However, in applications which the
RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F runs at a high ambient temperature
and high input voltage or high switching frequency, the
generated heat may exceed the maximum junction
temperature of the part. The junction temperature should
never exceed the absolute maximum junction temperature
of the part.
As an example, consider the case when the RT5762A/B/
C/D/E/F is used in SOT-563 (FC) package applications
where VIN = 5V, IOUT = 2A, fSW = 1.2MHz, VOUT = 1.2V.
The efficiency at 1.2V, 2A is 79.5% by using VCTA25201B1R5MS6 (1.5μH, 50mΩ DCR) as the inductor and
measured at room temperature. The core loss, 10.3mW,
can be obtained from its website in this case. In this case,
the power dissipation of the RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F is
PD, RT =
1 η
POUT IO 2 DCR + PCORE = 0.374W
η
Considering the θJA(EFFECTIVE) is 93.79°C/W by using the
RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F evaluation board with 4 layers PCB,
all layers with 1 oz. Cu, the junction temperature of the
regulator operating in a 25°C ambient temperature is
approximately :
TJ = 0.374W x 133.25°C/W + 25°C = 74.83°C
The junction temperature should never exceed the
absolute maximum junction temperature TJ(MAX), listed
under Absolute Maximum Ratings, to avoid permanent
damage to the device. If the junction temperature reaches
approximately 150°C, the RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F stops
switching the power MOSFETs until the temperature cools
down by 20°C.
The maximum power dissipation can be calculated by
the following formula :
PD(MAX) = (TJ(MAX) − TA) / θJA(EFFECTIVE)
where TJ(MAX) is the maximum junction temperature of the
die. For recommended operating condition specifications,
the maximum junction temperature is 150°C. TA is the
ambient temperature, and θJA(EFFECTIVE) is the systemlevel junction to ambient thermal resistance. It can be
estimated from thermal modeling or measurements in the
system.

RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F
Layout Considerations
Follow the PCB layout guidelines for optimal performance of the device.
Keep the high-current paths short, especially at the ground terminals. This practice is essential for stable, jitter-free
operation. The high current path comprising of input capacitor, high-side FET, inductor, and the output capacitor should
be as short as possible. This practice is essential for high efficiency.
Place the input MLCC capacitors as close to the VIN and GND pins as possible. The major MLCC capacitors should be
placed on the same layer as the RT5762A/B/C/D/E/F.
SW node is with high frequency voltage swing and should be kept at small area. Keep analog components away from
the SW node to prevent stray capacitive noise pickup.
Connect feedback network behind the output capacitors. Place the feedback components next to the FB pin.
For better thermal performance, to design a wide and thick plane for GND pin or to add a lot of vias to GND plane.
An examples of PCB layout guide are shown from Figure 12 and Figure 13.
