voltage can be as low as 0.8V and the output voltage is
adjustable by an external resistive divider. The RT9085A
features very low quiescent current consumption for
portable applications. The device is available in the WLCSP-6B 0.8x1.2 (BSC) package.
Bias Voltage Range : 3V to 5.5V
Available in Fixed and Adjustable (0.5V to 3V)

RT9085A
Operation
The RT9085A is using N-MOSFET pass transistor for
output voltage regulation from VIN voltage. The separated
bias voltage (VBIAS) power the low current internal control
circuit for applications requiring low input voltage and ultra
low dropout voltage.
In steady-state operation, the feedback voltage is
regulated to the reference voltage by the internal regulator.
When the feedback voltage signal is less than the
reference, the output current passes through the power
MOSFET will be increased. The extra amount of the
current is sent to the output until the voltage level of ADJ
pin returns to the reference. On the other hand, if the
feedback voltage is higher than the reference, the power
MOSFET current is decreased. The excess charge at the
output can be released by the loading current.
Chip Enable and Shutdown
The RT9085A provides an EN pin, as an external chip
enable control, to enable or disable the device. VEN below
0.54V turns the regulator off and enters the shutdown
mode, while VEN above 0.93V turns the regulator on. When
the regulator is shutdown, the ground current is reduced
to a maximum of 1μA.
Output Active Discharge
When the RT9085A is operating at shutdown mode, the
device has an internal active pull down circuit that connects
the output to GND through a 150Ω resistor for output
discharging purpose.
Current Limit
The RT9085A continuously monitors the output current
to protect the pass transistor against abnormal operations.
When an overload or short circuit is encountered, the
current limit circuitry controls the pass transistor's gate
voltage to limit the output within the predefined range.
Over-Temperature Protection (OTP)
The RT9085A has an over-temperature protection. When
the device triggers the OTP, the device shuts down until
the temperature back to normal state.

RT9085A
Application Information
The RT9085A is a low voltage, low dropout linear regulator
with input voltage VIN from 0.8V to 5.5V, VBIAS from 3V to
5.5V and adjusted output voltage from 0.5V to (VIN −
VDROP). Keep VEN < VBIAS + 0.5V to prevent malfunction.
Output Voltage Setting
For the RT9085A, the voltage on the ADJ pin sets the
output voltage and is determined by the values of R1 and
R2. The values of R1 and R2 can be calculated for any
voltage using the formula given in Equation :
VOUT 0.5V R1 + R2
R2
Using lower values for R1 and R2 is recommended to
reduces the noise injected from the ADJ pin. Note that R1
is connected from VOUT pin to ADJ pin, and R2 is
connected from ADJ to GND.
BIAS Pin Input
The VBIAS supply rail that powers the LDO control circuit
sinks very low current (approximately the quiescent
current of the LDO), which must be higher than 3V and
ensure VBIAS ≥ VOUT + 1.6V for normal operation.
Dropout Voltage
The dropout voltage refers to the voltage difference between
the VIN and VOUT pins while operating at specific output
current. The dropout voltage VDROP also can be expressed
as the voltage drop on the pass-FET at specific output
current (IRATED) while the pass-FET is fully operating at
ohmic region and the pass-FET can be characterized as
an resistance RDS(ON). Thus the dropout voltage can be
defined as (VDROP = VIN − VOUT = RDS(ON) x IRATED). For
normal operation, the suggested LDO operating range is
(VIN > VOUT + VDROP) for good transient response and
PSRR ability. Vice versa, while operating at the ohmic
region will degrade the performance severely.
be located at a distance of no more than 0.5 inch from the
input pin of the chip. However, a capacitor with larger value
and lower ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) is
recommended since it will provide better PSRR and line
transient response. Any good quality ceramic capacitor
can be used, CIN = 4.7μF or greater is recommended.
VBIAS pin is suggested connecting with a 510Ω resistor
and CBIAS = 1μF as a low-pass filter for good noise
immunity.
Feedback Network with Feed-forward Capacitor
The feed-forward capacitor (CFF) introduced one zero and
one pole within the feedback loop, which is optional for
the optimization of transient response by increasing
bandwidth and acceptable phase margin. The RT9085A is
designed to be stable without the external feed-forward
capacitor. However, an external feed-forward capacitor also
can be used, adding a 120pF external feed-forward
capacitor optimizes the transient, noise, and PSRR
performances.
Sequencing Requirements
The RT9085A supports power on the input VIN, VBIAS, and
EN pins in any order without damage the device. However,
for the output soft start procedure works as intended, it is
mandatory to ensure VIN ≥ VOUT + 0.1V before VBIAS ≥
VOUT + 1.6V, the device enabled by VEN (VEN > VENH)
eventually. The BIAS pin supplies voltage for the LDO
control circuit, and powering up VBIAS first will ensure turn
on time (tON) and output voltage accuracy to follow
datasheet spec.
Figure 3 also shows the use of an RC-delay circuit that
hold off VEN until VBIAS has ramped up to target value.
This technique can also be used to drive VEN from VIN. An
external control signal can also be used to enable the
device after VIN and VBIAS are present.
CIN and COUT Selection
The RT9085A is designed specifically to work with low
ESR ceramic output capacitor for space saving and
performance consideration. Using a ceramic capacitor with
effective capacitance range from 4.7μF to 22μF on the
RT9085A output ensures stability. The input capacitor must

Thermal Considerations
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. The maximum allowable power
dissipation depends on the thermal resistance of the IC
package, the PCB layout, the rate of surrounding airflow,
and the difference between the junction and ambient
temperatures. The maximum power dissipation can be
calculated using 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 continuous operation, the maximum operating junction
temperature indicated under Recommended Operating
Conditions is 125°C. The junction-to-ambient thermal
resistance, θJA, is highly package dependent. For a WLCSP-6B 0.8x1.2 (BSC) package, the thermal resistance,
θJA, is 77°C/W on a standard JEDEC high effective-thermalconductivity four-layer test board and the thermal
resistance. θ JA, is 80°C/W on a two-layer Richtek
resistance, θJA. The derating curves in Figure 4 allows
the designer to see the effect of rising ambient temperature
on the maximum power dissipation.

Layout Considerations
For best performance of the RT9085A, the PCB layout
suggestions below are highly recommend.
All circuit components placed on the same side and as
near to the respective LDO pin as possible, place the
ground return path connection to the input and output
capacitor.
The ground plane connected by a wide copper surface
for good thermal dissipation.
Using vias and long power traces for the input and output
capacitors connection is discouraged and have
negatively affects on performance.
Figure 5 shows an example for the layout reference that
reduce conduction trace loop, helping inductive parasitic
minimize, load transient reduction and good circuit stability.
evaluation board. The maximum power dissipation at TA =
25°C can be calculated as below :
PD(MAX) = (125°C − 25°C) / (77°C/W) = 1.29W for a
standard JEDEC four-layer test board.
PD(MAX) = (125°C − 25°C) / (80°C/W) = 1.25W for a
two-layer Richtek evaluation board.
The maximum power dissipation depends on the operating
ambient temperature for the fixed TJ(MAX) and the thermal
