RT8206A

The RT8026 is a high-efficiency Pulse-Width-Modulated (PWM) step-down DC/DC converter. Capable of delivering 1A output current over a wide input voltage range from 2.7V to 5.5V, the RT8026 is ideally suited for portable electronic devices that are powered from 1-cell Li-ion battery or from other power sources such as cellular phones, PDAs and hand-held devices. Two operating modes are available including : PWM/LowDropout autoswitch and shut-down modes. The Internal synchronous rectifier with low RDS(ON) dramatically reduces conduction loss at PWM mode. No external Schottky diode is required in practical application. The RT8026 enters Low-Dropout mode when normal PWM cannot provide regulated output voltage by continuously turning on the upper P-MOSFET. The RT8026 enter shutdown mode and consumes less than 0.1μA when the EN pin is pulled low. The switching ripple is easily smoothed-out by small package filtering elements due to a fixed operating frequency of 1.5MHz. This along with small MSOP-10 package provides small PCB area application. Other features include soft start, lower internal reference voltage with 2% accuracy, over temperature protection, and over current protection.
