The RT8293A is a high efficiency, monolithic synchronous
step-down DC/DC converter that can deliver up to 3A
output current from a 4.5V to 23V input supply. The
RT8293A’s current mode architecture and external
compensation allow the transient response to be
optimized over a wide range of loads and output capacitors.
Cycle-by-cycle current limit provides protection against
shorted outputs and soft-start eliminates input current
surge during start-up. The RT8293A also provides output
under voltage protection and thermal shutdown protection.
The low current (<3μA) shutdown mode provides output
disconnection, enabling easy power management in
battery-powered systems. The RT8293A is available in
an SOP-8 (Exposed Pad) package.
