If the input voltage exceeds the UVLO rising threshold voltage (5.3V), the converter resets and prepares RT6296E provides cycle-by-cycle over current limit protection. When the inductor current peak value reaches current limit, IC will turn off High Side MOS to avoid over current. the PWM for operation. If the input voltage falls below the UVLO falling threshold voltage (4.2V) during normal operation, the device stops switching. The UVLO rising and falling threshold voltage includes a hysteresis to prevent noise caused reset. Internal Regulator The internal regulator generates 5V power and drive internal circuit. When VIN is below 5V, PVCC will drop with VIN. A capacitor (>0.1μF) between PVCC and GND is required. Soft-Start Function The RT6296E provides external soft-start function. The soft-start function is used to prevent large inrush current while converter is being powered-up. The soft-start timing can be programmed by the external capacitor between SS pin and GND.

DS6296E-00 August 2015 RT6296E Application Information The RT6296E is a high voltage buck converter that can support the input voltage range from 4.5V to 17V and the input voltage range from 4.5V to 17V and the output current can be up to 3A. 5V BOOT Output Voltage Selection RT6296E 100nF SW The resistive voltage divider allows the FB pin to sense a fraction of the output voltage as shown in Figure 1.

Output Voltage Setting For adjustable voltage mode, the output voltage is set by an external resistive voltage divider according to the following equation : R1   VOUT  VFB  1    R2  The TTH voltage is used to be change the transition threshold between power saving mode and CCM. Higher TTH voltage gets higher efficiency at light load condition but larger output ripple; a lower TTH voltage can improve output ripple but degrades efficiency during light load condition. A resistor divider from PVCC (5V) of RT6296E can help to build TTH voltage, as shown in Figure 3. It is recommended that TTH voltage should be less than 0.6V.

The softstart function is used to prevent large inrush current while converter is being powered-up. The soft-start timing can be programmed by the external capacitor (CSS) between SS pin and GND. The Chip provides a 11μA charge current (ISS) for the external capacitor. The soft-start time (tSS, VREF is from 0V to 0.8V) can be calculated by the following formula : External Bootstrap Diode Connect a 100nF low ESR ceramic capacitor between the BOOT pin and SW pin. This capacitor provides the gate driver voltage for the high side MOSFET. It is recommended to add an external bootstrap diode between an external 5V and BOOT pin, as shown as Figure 2, for efficiency improvement when input voltage is lower than 5.5V or duty ratio is higher than 65% .The bootstrap diode can be a low cost one such as IN4148 or BAT54. The external 5V can be a 5V fixed input from system or a 5V output (PVCC) of the RT6296E. Copyright © 2015 Richtek Technology Corporation. All rights reserved. DS6296E-00 August 2015 Figure 3.

The ripple current ΔIL increases with higher VIN and decreases with higher inductance.  V V   IL   OUT    1  OUT  f  L V    IN  Having a lower ripple current reduces not only the ESR losses in the output capacitors but also the output voltage ripple. High frequency with small ripple current can achieve highest efficiency operation. However, it requires a large inductor to achieve this goal. For the ripple current selection, the value of ΔIL = 0.3(IMAX) will be a reasonable starting point. The largest ripple current occurs at the highest VIN. To guarantee that the ripple current stays below the specified maximum, the inductor value should be chosen according to the following equation:  VOUT   VOUT  L  1     f  IL(MAX)   VIN(MAX)     The inductor's current rating (caused a 40°C temperature rising from 25°C ambient) should be greater than the maximum load current and its saturation current should be greater than the short circuit peak current limit. CIN and COUT Selection The input capacitance, C IN, is needed to filter the trapezoidal current at the source of the top MOSFET. To prevent large ripple current, a low ESR input capacitor sized for the maximum RMS current should be used. The RMS current is given by : IRMS  IOUT(MAX) VOUT VIN VIN 1 VOUT This formula has a maximum at VIN = 2VOUT, where IRMS = IOUT/2. This simple worst-case condition is commonly used for design because even significant deviations do not offer much relief. Choose a capacitor rated at a higher temperature than required. Several capacitors may also be paralleled to meet size or height requirements in the design. The selection of COUT is determined by the required Effective Copyright © 2015 Richtek Technology Corporation. All rights reserved. www.richtek.com 10 Series Resistance (ESR) to minimize voltage ripple. Moreover, the amount of bulk capacitance is also a key for COUT selection to ensure that the control loop is stable. Loop stability can be checked by viewing the load transient response as described in a later section. The output ripple, ΔVOUT, is determined by :   1 VOUT  IL   ESR   8fCOUT   The output ripple will be highest at the maximum input voltage since ΔIL increases with input voltage. Multiple capacitors placed in parallel may be needed to meet the ESR and RMS current handling requirement. Dry tantalum, special polymer, aluminum electrolytic and ceramic capacitors are all available in surface mount packages. Special polymer capacitors offer very low ESR value. However, it provides lower capacitance density than other types. Although Tantalum capacitors have the highest capacitance density, it is important to only use types that pass the surge test for use in switching power supplies. Aluminum electrolytic capacitors have significantly higher ESR. However, it can be used in cost-sensitive applications for ripple current rating and long term reliability considerations. Ceramic capacitors have excellent low ESR characteristics but can have a high voltage coefficient and audible piezoelectric effects. The high Q of ceramic capacitors with trace inductance can also lead to significant ringing. Thermal Considerations For continuous operation, do not exceed absolute maximum junction temperature. The maximum power dissipation depends on the thermal resistance of the IC package, PCB layout, rate of surrounding airflow, and difference between junction and ambient temperature. The maximum power dissipation can be calculated by the following formula : PD(MAX) = (TJ(MAX) − TA) / θJA where TJ(MAX) is the maximum junction temperature, TA is the ambient temperature, and θJA is the junction to ambient thermal resistance. For recommended operating condition specifications, the maximum junction temperature is 125°C. The junction to is a registered trademark of Richtek Technology Corporation. DS6296E-00 August 2015 RT6296E ambient thermal resistance, θJA, is layout dependent. For TSOT-23-8 (FC) package, the thermal resistance, θJA, is 70°C/W on a standard JEDEC 51-7 four-layer thermal test board. The maximum power dissipation at TA = 25°C can be calculated by the following formula : Layout Considerations For best performance of the RT6296E, the following layout guidelines must be strictly followed. PD(MAX) = (125°C − 25°C) / (70°C/W) = 1.428W for TSOT-23-8 (FC) package The maximum power dissipation depends on the operating ambient temperature for fixed T J(MAX) and thermal resistance, θJA. The derating curve in Figure 4 allows the designer to see the effect of rising ambient temperature on the maximum power dissipation.  Input capacitor must be placed as close to the IC as possible.  SW should be connected to inductor by wide and short trace.
