OUTLINE
The RH5RI

1B/
××
2B/
××
3B Series are VFM (Chopper) Step-up DC/DC converter ICs with ultra low supply
current by CMOS process.
The RH5RI
××
1B IC consists of an oscillator, a VFM control circuit, a driver transistor (Lx switch), a reference
voltage unit, an error amplifier, resistors for voltage detection, and an Lx switch protection circuit. A low ripple,
high efficiency step-up DC/DC converter can be constructed of this RH5RI
××
1B IC with only three external com-
ponents, that is, an inductor, a diode and a capacitor.
The RH5RI
××
2B IC uses the same chip as that employed in the RH5RI
××
1B IC and is provided with a drive
pin (EXT) for an external transistor instead of an Lx pin, so that a power transistor with a low saturation voltage
can be externally provided, whereby a large current can be caused to flow through the inductor and accordingly a
large current can be obtained. Therefore, the RH5RI
××
2B IC is recommendable to the user who need a current
as large as several tens mA toseveral hundreds mA.
The RH5RI
××
3B IC also includes an internal chip enable circuit so that it is possible to set the standby sup-
ply current at MAX. 0.5µA.
These RH5RI

3B ICs are suitable for use with battery-powered instruments with low noise
and ultra low supply current.

):
Stepwise setting with a step of 0.1V in the range of 2.5V to 7.5V is possible.
Designation of Driver:
1B: Internal Lx Tr. Driver (Oscillator Frequency 100kHz)
2B: External Tr. Driver (Oscillator Frequency 100kHz)
3B: Internal Tr./External Tr. (selectively available) (Oscillator Frequency 100kHz, with chip
enable function)
Designation of Taping type :
Ex. SOT-89 : T1, T2
SOT-89-5 : T1, T2
(refer to Taping Specification)
“T1” is prescribed as a standard.

ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS
Absolute Maximum ratings are threshold limit values that must not be exceeded even for an instant under any
conditions. Moreover, such values for any two items must not be reached simultaneously. Operation above
these absolute maximum ratings may cause degradation or permanent damage to the device. These are stress
ratings only and do not necessarily imply functional operation below these limits.
