RT6365
60VIN, 5A, Asynchronous Step-Down Converter with Low
Quiescent Current
General Description
Features
The RT6365 is a 5A, high-efficiency, peak current mode
control asynchronous step-down converter. The device
operates with input voltages from 4V to 60V. The device
can program the output voltage between 0.8V to VIN. The
low quiescent current design with the integrated low RDS(ON)
of high-side MOSFET achieves high efficiency over the
wide load range. The peak current mode control with simple
external compensation allows the use of small inductors
and results in fast transient response and good loop
stability.
The wide switching frequency of 100kHz to 2500kHz allows
for efficiency and size optimization when selecting the
output filter components. The ultra-low minimum on-time
enables constant-frequency operation even at very high
step-down ratios. For switching noise sensitive
applications, it can be externally synchronized from
300kHz to 2200kHz.
The RT6365 provides complete protection functions such
as input under-voltage lockout, output under-voltage
protection, output over-voltage protection, over-current
protection, and thermal shutdown. Cycle-by-cycle current
limit provides protection against shorted outputs, and softstart eliminates input current surge during start-up. The
RT6365 is available in WDFN-10L 4x4 and SOP-8
(Exposed pad) packages.

RT6365
Operation
Control Loop
The RT6365 is a high efficiency asynchronous step-down
converter utilizes the peak current mode control. An
internal oscillator initiates the turn-on of the high-side
MOSFET. At the beginning of each clock cycle, the internal
high-side MOSFET turns on, allowing current to ramp-up
in the inductor. The inductor current is internally monitored
during each switching cycle. The output voltage is sensed
on the FB pin via the resistor divider, R1 and R2, and
compared with the internal reference voltage (VREF) to
generate a compensation signal (VCOMP) on the COMP
pin. A control signal derived from the inductor current is
compared to the voltage at the COMP pin, derived from
the feedback voltage. When the inductor current reaches
its threshold, the high-side MOSFET is turned off and
inductor current ramps down. While the high-side MOSFET
is off, the inductor current is supplied through the external
low-side diode, freewheel diode, connected between the
SW pin and GND. This cycle repeats at the next clock
cycle. In this way, duty-cycle and output voltage are
controlled by regulating inductor current.
Light Load Operation
The RT6365 operates in power saving mode (PSM) at
light load to improve light load efficiency. IC starts to switch
when VFB is lower than PSM threshold ( VREF x 1.005,
typically) and stops switching when VFB is high enough.
During PSM, IC controls the minimum inductor peak
current (IL_PEAK) by clamping the COMP level. During nonswitching period, most of the internal circuit is shut down,
and the supply current drops to quiescent current (100μA,
typically) to reduce the quiescent power consumption.
With lower output loading, the non-switching period is
longer, so the effective switching frequency becomes lower
to reduce the switching loss and switch driving loss.
from 300kHz to 2.2MHz by RT/SYNC pin. The switching
frequency of synchronization should be equal to or higher
than the frequency set by the RT resistor. For example, if
the switching frequency of synchronization is 500kHz or
higher, the RRT/SYNC should be selected for 500kHz.
The RT6365 implements a frequency foldback function to
protect the device at over-load or short-circuited condition,
especially higher switching frequencies and input voltages.
The switching frequency is divided by 1, 2, 4, and 8 as the
FB pin voltage falls from 0.8 V to 0 V for switching
frequency control by RT resistor setting mode and the
synchronization mode both. The frequency foldback
function increases the switching cycle period and provides
more time for the inductor current to ramp down.
Maximum Duty Cycle Operation
The RT6365 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 RT6365 starts to enable skip offtime function and keeps high-side MOSFET on
continuously.
The RT6365 implements skip off-time function to achieve
high duty approaching 100% and 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.
For normal operation, the minimum input voltage can be
calculated from below equation :
VIN_MIN =
VOUT + IOUT_MAX RL + VD
1 fSW tOFF_MIN
+ IOUT_MAX RDS(ON)_H + VD
Switching Frequency Selection and Synchronization
The RT6365 provides an RT/SYNC pin for switching
frequency selection. The switching frequency can be set
by using external resistor RRT/SYNC and the switching
frequency range is from 100kHz to 2.5MHz. The RT6365
can also be synchronized with an external clock ranging

BOOT UVLO
The BOOT UVLO circuit is implemented to ensure a
sufficient voltage of BOOT capacitor for turning on the highside MOSFET at any conditions. The BOOT UVLO usually
actives at extremely high conversion ratio or the higher
VOUT application operates at very light load. With such
conditions when the BOOT to SW voltage falls below
VBOOT_UVLO_L (2.7V, typically), the device turns on the
internal BOOT recharge FET (150ns, typically) to charge
the BOOT capacitor. The BOOT UVLO is sustained until
the BOOT to SW voltage is higher than VBOOT_UVLO_H
(2.8V, typically).
Enable Control
The RT6365 provides an EN pin, as an external chip enable
control, to enable or disable the device. If VEN is held
below the enable threshold voltage, switching is inhibited
even if the VIN voltage is above VIN under-voltage lockout
threshold (VUVLOH). If VEN is held below 0.4V, the converter
will enter into shutdown mode, that is, the converter is
disabled. During shutdown mode, the supply current can
be reduced to ISHDN (2.25μA, typically). If the EN voltage
rises above the enable threshold voltage while the VIN
voltage is higher than VUVLOH, the device will be turned
on, that is, switching being enabled and soft-start
sequence being initiated. The EN pin has an internal pullup current source IEN (1.2μA, typically) that enables
operation of the RT6365 when the EN pin floats. The EN
pin can be used to adjust the under-voltage lockout (UVLO)
threshold and hysteresis by using two external resistors.
The RT6365 implements additional hysteresis current
source IEN_Hys (3.4μA, typically) to adjust the UVLO. The
IEN_Hys is sourced out of the EN pin when VEN is larger
than enable threshold voltage. When the VEN falls below
enable threshold voltage, the IEN_Hys will be stopped
sourcing out of the EN pin.
the value of the external soft-start capacitor CSS/TR
connected from the SS/TR pin to ground or controlled by
external ramp voltage to SS/TR pin. During the start-up
sequence, the soft-start capacitor is charged by an internal
current source ISS (1.7μA, typically) to generate a softstart ramp voltage as a reference voltage to the PWM
comparator. The high-side MOSFET will start switching if
the voltage difference between SS/TR pin and FB pin is
equal to 42mV ( i.e. VSS/TR − VFB = 42mV, typically) during
power-up period. If the output is pre-biased to a certain
voltage during start-up for some reason, the device will
not start switching until the voltage difference between
SS/TR pin and FB pin is equal to 42mV (typically). Only
when this ramp voltage is higher than the feedback voltage
VFB, the switching will be resumed. The FB voltage will
track the SS/TR pin ramp voltage with a SS/TR to FB
offset voltage (42mV, typically) during soft-start interval.
The output voltage can then ramp up smoothly to its
targeted regulation voltage, and the converter can have a
monotonic smooth start-up. For soft-start control, the SS
pin should never be left unconnected. After the FB pin
voltage rises above 94% of VREF (typically), the PGOOD
pin will be in high impedance and the VPGOOD will be held
high. The typical start-up waveform shown in Figure 1
indicates the sequence and timing between the output
voltage and related voltage.

Power Good Indication
Input Under-Voltage Lockout
The RT6365GQW features an open-drain power-good
output (PGOOD) 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 PGOOD with a resistor
to an external voltage source and it is recommended to
use pull-up resistance between the values of 1 and 10kΩ
to reduce the switching noise coupling to PGOOD pin.
The PGOOD assertion requires input voltage above 2V.
The power-good function is controlled by a comparator
connected to the feedback signal VFB. If VFB rises above
the power-good high threshold (VTH_PGLH1) (94% of the
reference voltage, typically), the PGOOD pin will be in
high impedance and VPGOOD will be held high after a certain
delay elapsed. When VFB falls below power-good low
threshold (VTH_PGHL2) (92% of the reference voltage,
typically) or exceeds VTH_PGHL1 (109% of the reference
voltage, typically), the PGOOD pin will be pulled low. For
VFB higher than VTH_PGHL1, VPGOOD can be pulled high
again if VFB drops back by a power-good high threshold
(VTH_PGLH2) (106% of the reference voltage, typically).
Once being started-up, if any internal protection is
triggered, PGOOD will be pulled low to GND. The internal
open-drain pull-down device (45Ω, typically) will pull the
PGOOD pin low. The power good indication profile is shown
in Figure 2.
In addition to the EN pin, the RT6365 also provides enable
control through the VIN pin. If VEN rises above VTH_EN first,

the switching will be inhibited until the VIN voltage rises
above VUVLOH. It is to ensure that the internal regulator is
ready so that operation with not-fully-enhanced internal
high-side MOSFET can be prevented. After the device is
powered up, if the input voltage VIN goes below the UVLO
falling threshold voltage (VUVLOL), this switching will be
inhibited; if VIN rises above the UVLO rising threshold
(VUVLOH), the device will resume switching. Note that VIN
= 4V is only design for input voltage momentarily falls
down to the UVLO threshold voltage requirement, and
normal input voltage should be larger than the VUVLOH.
High-Side MOSFET Peak Current Limit Protection
The RT6365 includes a cycle-by-cycle high-side MOSFET
peak current-limit protection against the condition that
the inductor current increasing abnormally, even over the
inductor saturation current rating. The inductor current
through the high-side MOSFET will be measured after a
certain amount of delay when the high-side MOSFET
being turned on. If an over-current condition occurs, the
converter will immediately turn off the high-side MOSFET
to prevent the inductor current exceeding the high-side
MOSFET peak current limit (ILIM).
Output Under-Voltage Protection
The RT6365 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 trip threshold
(50% of the internal reference voltage, typically), the UV
comparator will go high to turn off the internal high-side
switch. If the output under-voltage condition continues for
a period of time, the RT6365 enters output under-voltage
protection with hiccup mode and discharges the CSS/TR
by an internal discharging current source ISS_DIS (0.5μA,
typically). During hiccup mode, the device remains
shutdown. After the SS pin voltage is discharged to less
than 54mV (typically), the RT6365 attempts to re-start up
again, and the internal charging current source ISS (1.7μA,
typically) gradually increases the voltage on CSS/TR. The
high-side MOSFET will start switching when voltage

RT6365
difference between SS pin and FB pin is equal to 42mV (
i.e. VSS − VFB = 42mV, typically). If the output undervoltage condition is not removed, the high-side MOSFET
stops switching when the voltage difference between SS
pin and FB pin is 1.2V ( i.e. VSS − VFB = 1.2V, typically)
and then the ISS_DIS discharging current source begins to
discharge C SS/TR. Upon completion of the soft-start
sequence, if the output under-voltage condition is removed,
the converter will resume normal operation; otherwise, such
cycle for auto-recovery will be repeated until the output
under-voltage 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 in
Figure 3.
Since the CSS/TR will be discharged to 54mV when the
RT6365 enters output under-voltage protection, the first
discharging time (tSS_DIS1) can be calculated as below :
V 0.054
tSS_DIS1 = CSS SS
ISS_DIS
The equation below assumes that the VFB will be 0 at
short-circuited condition and it can be used to calculate
the CSS/TR discharging time (tSS_DIS2) and charging time
(tSS_CH) during hiccup mode.

Output Over-Voltage Protection
The RT6365 includes an output over-voltage protection
(OVP) circuit to limit output voltage. Since the VFB is lower
than the reference voltage (VREF) at over-load or shortcircuited condition, the COMP voltage will be high to
demand maximum output current. Once the over-load or
short-circuited condition is removed, the COMP voltage
resumes to the normal voltage to regulate the output
voltage. The output voltage leads to the possibility of an
output overshoot if the load transient is faster than the
COMP voltage transient response, especially for small
output capacitance. If the VFB goes above the 109% of
the reference voltage, the high-side MOSFET will be forced
off to limit the output voltage. When the VFB drops lower
than the 106% of the reference voltage, the high-side
MOSFET will be resumed.
Over-Temperature Protection
The RT6365 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.

RT6365
Application Information
Switching Frequency Setting
The RT6365 offers adjustable switching frequency setting
and the switching frequency can be set by using external
resistor RRT/SYNC. The switching frequency range is from
100kHz to 2.5MHz. The selection of the operating
frequency is a trade-off between efficiency and component
size. High frequency operation allows the use of smaller
inductor and capacitor values. Operation at lower
frequencies improves efficiency by reducing internal gate
charge and transition losses, but requires larger inductance
values and/or capacitance to maintain low output ripple
voltage. The additional constraints on operating frequency
are the minimum on-time and minimum off-time. The
minimum on-time, tON_MIN, is the smallest duration of time
in which the high-side switch can be in its “on” state.
The minimum on-time of the RT6365 is 100ns (typically).
In continuous mode operation, the maximum operating
frequency, fSW_MAX, can be derived from the minimum ontime according to the formula below :
VOUT
fSW_MAX =
tON_MIN VIN_MAX
where VIN_MAX is the maximum operating input voltage.
The minimum off-time, tOFF_MIN, is the smallest amount of
time that the RT6365 is capable of tripping the current
comparator and turning the high-side MOSFET back off.
The minimum off-time of the RT6365 is 130ns (typically).
If the switching frequency should be constant, the required
off-time needs to be larger than minimum off-time. Below
shows minimum off-time calculation with loss terms
consideration :
VOUT + IOUT_MAX RL + VD

t OFF_MIN
fSW
where RDS(ON)_H is the on-resistance of the high-side
MOSFET; VD is the forward conduction voltage of the
freewheel diode; RL is the DC resistance of inductor.
The switching frequency fSW is set by the external resistor
RRT/SYNC connected between the RT/SYNC pin and
ground. The failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA)
consideration is applied to the RT/SYNC pin setting to
avoid abnormal switching frequency operation at failure
conditions. It includes failure scenarios of short-circuit to
ground and the pin is left open. The switching frequency
will be 900kHz (typically) when the RT/SYNC pin is
shorted to ground, and 240kHz (typically) when the pin is
left open. The equation below shows the relation between
setting frequency and the RRT/SYNC value.

where fSW (kHz) is the desired setting frequency. It is
recommended to use 1% tolerance or better, and the

the RRT/SYNC resistor.

A general RT6365 application circuit is shown in typical

is largely driven by the load requirement and begins with
the switching frequency selection by using external resistor
RRT/SYNC. Next, the inductor L, the input capacitor CIN,
the output capacitor COUT and freewheel diode are chosen.
Next, feedback resistors and compensation circuit are
selected to set the desired output voltage and crossover
frequency, and the bootstrap capacitor CBOOT can be
selected. Finally, the remaining optional external
components can be selected for functions such as the
EN, external soft-start, PGOOD, and synchronization.

RT6365
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 a 30% peakto-peak ripple current to 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
Larger inductance values result in lower output ripple
voltage and higher efficiency, but a slightly degraded
transient response. This results in additional phase lag in
the loop and reduces the crossover frequency. As the ratio
of the slope-compensation ramp to the sensed-current
ramp increases, the current-mode system tilts towards
voltage-mode control. Lower inductance values allow for
smaller case size, but the increased ripple lowers the
effective current limit threshold and increases the AC
losses in the inductor. It also causes insufficient slope
compensation and ultimately loop instability as duty cycle
approaches or exceeds 50%. When duty cycle exceeds
50%, below condition needs to be satisfied :
V
4 fSW OUT
L
A good compromise among size, efficiency, and transient
response can be achieved by setting an inductor current
ripple (ΔIL) with about 10% to 50% of the maximum rated
output current (5A).
To enhance the efficiency, choose a low-loss inductor
having the lowest possible DC resistance that fits in the
allotted dimensions. The inductor value determines not
only the ripple current but also the load-current value at
which DCM/CCM switchover occurs. The selected inductor
should have a saturation current rating greater than the
peak current limit of the device. The core must be large
enough not to saturate at the peak inductor current (IL_PEAK) :
V
(VIN VOUT )
IL = OUT
VIN fSW L
IL_PEAK = IOUT_MAX + 1 IL

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
which is equal to or greater than the switch current limit
rather than the peak inductor current. It is recommended
to use shielded inductors for good EMI performance.
Input Capacitor Selection
Input capacitance, CIN, is needed to filter the pulsating
current at the drain of the high-side MOSFET. The CIN
should be sized to do this without causing a large variation
in input voltage. The peak-to-peak voltage ripple on input
capacitor can be estimated as equation below :
+ ESR IOUT
VCIN = D IOUT 1 D
CIN fSW
where
V
D = OUT
VIN
Figure 5 shows the CIN ripple current flowing through the
input capacitors and the resulting voltage ripple across
the capacitors.
For ceramic capacitors, the equivalent series resistance
(ESR) is very low, the ripple which is caused by ESR can
be ignored, and the minimum value of effective input
capacitance can be estimated as equation below :
CIN_MIN = IOUT_MAX
D 1 D
VCIN_MAX fSW
where ΔVCIN_MAX is maximum input ripple voltage.

RT6365
In addition, the input capacitor needs to have a very low
ESR and must be rated to handle the worst-case RMS
input current. The RMS ripple current (IRMS) of the regulator
can be determined by the input voltage (VIN), output voltage
(VOUT), and rated output current (IOUT) as the following
equation :
V
VIN
IRMS IOUT _MAX OUT
1
VIN
VOUT
From the above, the maximum RMS input ripple current
occurs at maximum output load, which will be used as
the requirements to consider the current capabilities of
the input capacitors. The maximum ripple voltage usually
occurs at 50% duty cycle, that is, VIN = 2 x VOUT. It is
common to use the worse IRMS ≅ 0.5 x IOUT_MAX at VIN = 2
x VOUT 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 RT6365 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 pin with a low inductance connection to the
GND of the IC. The VIN pin must be bypassed to ground
with a minimum value of effective capacitance 3μF. For
400kHz switching frequency application, two 4.7μF, X7R
capacitors can be connected between the VIN pin and the
GND pin. The larger input capacitance is required when a
lower switching frequency is used. For filtering high

DS6365-02 March 2020
frequency noise, an additional small 0.1μF capacitor should
be placed close to the part and the capacitor should be
0402 or 0603 in size. X7R capacitors are recommended
for best performance across temperature and input voltage
variations.
Output Capacitor Selection
The selection of COUT is determined by considering to
satisfy the voltage ripple and the transient loads. The peakto-peak output ripple, ΔVOUT, is determined by :
1
VOUT = IL ESR +
8 fSW COUT
Where the ΔIL is the peak-to-peak inductor ripple current.
The highest output ripple is at 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 requirements.
Regarding to the transient loads, the VSAG and VSOAR
requirement should be taken into consideration for
choosing the effective output capacitance value. The
amount of output sag/soar is a function of the crossover
frequency factor at PWM, and can be calculated from
below equation :
IOUT
VSAG = VSOAR =
2 COUT fC
Ceramic capacitors have very low equivalent series
resistance (ESR) and provide the best ripple performance.
The X7R dielectric capacitor is recommended for the best
performance across temperature and input voltage
variations. The variation of the capacitance value with
temperature, DC bias voltage and switching frequency
needs to be taken into consideration. For example, the
capacitance value of a capacitor decreases as the DC bias
across the capacitor increases. Be careful to consider the
voltage coefficient of ceramic capacitors when choosing
the value and case size. Most ceramic capacitors lose
50% or more of their rated values when used near their
rated voltage.
Transient performance can be improved with a higher value
output capacitor. Increasing the output capacitance will
also decrease the output voltage ripple.
Freewheel Diode Selection

is supplied through the external low-side diode, freewheel
diode, connected between the SW pin and GND.
The reverse voltage rating of freewheel diode should be
equal to or greater than the VIN_MAX. The maximum average
forward rectified current of freewheel diode should be equal
to or greater than the maximum load current. Considering
the efficiency performance, the diode must have a
minimum forward voltage and reverse recovery time. So
Schottky Diodes are recommended to be freewheel diode.

In most cases, the peak current mode control architecture
used in the RT6365 only requires two external components
to achieve a stable design as shown in Figure 8. The
compensation can be selected to accommodate any
capacitor type or value. The external compensation also
allows the user to set the crossover frequency and optimize
the transient performance of the device. At around the
crossover frequency, the peak current mode control
(PCMC) equivalent circuit of Buck converter can be
simplified as shown in Figure 9. The method presented
here is easy to calculate and ignore the effects of the
internal slope compensation. Since the slope
compensation is ignored, the actual crossover frequency

is usually lower than the crossover frequency used in the
calculations. It is always necessary to make a
measurement before releasing the design for final
production. Though the models of power supplies are
theoretically correct, they cannot take full account of the
circuit parasitic and component nonlinearity, such as the
ESR variations of output capacitors, the nonlinearity of
inductors and capacitors, etc. Also, circuit PCB noise and
limited measurement accuracy may also cause
measurement errors. A Bode plot is ideally measured with
a network analyzer while Richtek application note AN038
provides an alternative way to check the stability quickly
and easily. Generally, follow the steps below to calculate
the compensation components :
1. Set up the crossover frequency, f C. For stability
purposes, the target is to have a loop gain slope that
is −20dB/decade from a very low frequency to beyond
the crossover frequency. In general, one-twentieth to
one-tenth of the switching frequency (5% to 10% of
fsw) is recommended to be the crossover frequency.
Do “NOT” design the crossover frequency over 80kHz
with the RT6365. For dynamic purposes, the higher
the bandwidth, the faster the load transient response.
The downside of the high bandwidth is that it increases
the susceptibility of the regulators to board noise which
ultimately leads to excessive falling edge jitter of the
switch node voltage.

Bootstrap Driver Supply
The bootstrap capacitor (CBOOT) between the BOOT pin
and the SW pin is used to create a voltage rail above the
applied input voltage, VIN. Specifically, the bootstrap
capacitor is charged through an internal diode to an internal
voltage source each time when the low-side freewheel
diode conducts. The charge on this capacitor is then used
to supply the required current during the remainder of the
switching cycle. For most applications, a 0.1μF, 0603

It has to add an external bootstrap diode between an
external 5V voltage supply and the BOOT pin to improve
enhancement of the high-side MOSFET and improve
efficiency when the input voltage is below 5.5V or duty
ratio is higher than 65%. The recommended application
circuit is shown in Figure 10. The bootstrap diode can be
a low-cost one, such as 1N4148. The external 5V can be

The gate driver of an internal high-side MOSFET, utilized
as a high-side switch, is optimized for turning on the
switch. The gate driver is not only fast enough for reducing
switching power loss, but also slow enough for minimizing
EMI. The EMI issue is worse when the switch is turned
on rapidly due to induced high di/dt noises. When the
high-side MOSFET is turned off, the SW node will be
discharged relatively slow by the inductor current because
the presence of the dead time when both the high-side
MOSFET and low-side freewheel diode are turned off.
In some cases, it is desirable to reduce EMI further, even
at the expense of some additional power dissipation. The
turn-on rate of the high-side MOSFET can be slowed by
placing a small bootstrap resistor RBOOT between the
BOOT pin and the external bootstrap capacitor as shown
in Figure 12. The recommended range for the RBOOT is
several ohms to 10 ohms, and it could be 0402 or 0603 in
size.
This will slow down the rates of the high-side switch turnon and the rise of VSW. In order to improve EMI performance
and enhancement of the internal high-side MOSFET, the
recommended application circuit is shown in Figure 13,
which includes an external bootstrap diode for charging
the bootstrap capacitor and a bootstrap resistor RBOOT
placed between the BOOT pin and the capacitor/diode

EN Pin for Start-Up and UVLO Adjustment
For automatic start-up, the EN pin has an internal pull-up
current source IEN (1.2μA, typically) that enables operation
of the RT6365 when the EN pin floats. If the EN voltage
rises above the VTH_EN (1.2V, typically) and the VIN voltage
is higher than VUVLOH (4.3V, typically), the device will be
turned on, that is, switching is enabled and soft-start
sequence is initiated. If the high UVLO is required, the
EN pin can be used to adjust the under-voltage lockout
(UVLO) threshold and hysteresis. There is an additional
hysteresis current source IEN_Hys (3.4μA, typically) which
is sourced out of the EN pin when the EN pin voltage
exceeds VTH_EN. When the EN pin drops below VTH_EN,
the IEN_Hys is removed. Therefore, the EN pin can be
externally connected to VIN by adding two resistors, RENH
and RENL to achieve UVLO adjustment as shown in Figure
14.
According to the desired start and stop input voltage, the
resistance of REN1 and REN2 can be obtained as below :

If a heavy load is added to the output with large

The FB voltage will track the SS/TR pin ramp voltage with
a SS/TR to FB offset voltage (42mV, typically) during softstart interval. The typical soft-start time (tSS) which is the

RT6365
The switching frequency control of the RT6365 will switch
from the RT resistor setting mode to the synchronization
mode when the external clock is applied to the RT/SYNC
pin. The RT6365 transitions from the RT resistor setting
mode to the synchronization mode within 60
microseconds. Figure 15 and Figure 16 show the device
synchronized to an external system clock in power saving
mode (PSM) and continuous conduction mode (CCM).
The sub-harmonic oscillation may occur for duty cycle
greater than 50% in CCM at synchronization mode. By
choosing a larger inductor, more slope compensation can
be achieved and the risk of such sub-harmonic oscillations
is eliminated.
The switching frequency of synchronization should be
equal to or higher than the frequency set with the RT
resistor. For example, if the switching frequency of
synchronization will be 500kHz and higher, the RRT/SYNC
should be selected for 500kHz. Be careful to design the
compensation network and inductance for switching
frequency controlled by both RT resistor setting mode
and the synchronization mode.

Thermal Considerations
In many applications, the RT6365 does not generate much
heat due to its high efficiency and low thermal resistance
of its WDFN-10L 4x4 and SOP-8 (Exposed pad) packages.
However, in applications which the RT6365 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 TJ(MAX), listed
under Absolute Maximum Ratings, to avoid permanent
damage to the device. If the junction temperature reaches
approximately 175°C, the RT6365 stops switching the highside MOSFET until the temperature cools down by 15°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 allowed junction temperature
of the die. For recommended operating condition
specifications, the maximum junction temperature is
150°C. T A is the ambient operating temperature,
θJA(EFFECTIVE) is the system-level junction to ambient
thermal resistance. It can be estimated from thermal
modeling or measurements in the system.
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. Carefully select the freewheel diode to ensure

that thermal performance will not be limited by the
freewheel diode.
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).
If the application calls for a higher ambient temperature
and may exceed the recommended maximum junction
temperature of 150°C, care should be taken to reduce the
temperature rise of the part by using a heat sink or air
flow.
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.

close to the IC as possible because to the RT/SYNC
pin is sensitive to noise.
Figure 17 and Figure 18 are the RT6365GQW layout
examples.
Layout Guidelines
When laying out the printed circuit board, the following
checklist should be used to ensure proper operation of
the RT6365 :
Four-layer or six-layer PCB with maximum ground plane
is strongly recommended for good thermal performance.
Keep the traces of the main current paths wide and
short.
Place high frequency decoupling capacitor CIN5 as close
to the IC as possible to reduce the loop impedance and
minimize switch node ringing.
Place bootstrap capacitor, CBOOT, as close to the IC as
possible. Routing the trace with width of 20mil or wider.
Place multiple vias under the device near VIN and GND,
and close to input capacitors to reduce parasitic
inductance and improve thermal performance. To keep
thermal resistance low, extend the ground plane as much
as possible. Add thermal vias under and near the
RT6365 to additional ground planes within the circuit
board and on the bottom side.
The high frequency switching nodes, SW and BOOT,
should be as small as possible. Keep analog
components away from the SW and BOOT nodes.
