RT6206B
5.5A, 18V, 650kHz, ACOT
TM
Synchronous Step-Down Converter
General Description
The RT6206B is a synchronous step-down DC-DC converter
with Advanced Constant On-Time (ACOT
TM
) mode control.
It achieves high power density to deliver up to 5.5A output
current from a 4.5V to 18V input supply. The proprietary
ACOT
TM
mode offers an optimal transient response over a
wide range of loads and all kinds of ceramic capacitors,
which allows the device to adopt very low ESR output
capacitor for ensuring performance stabilization. In
addition, RT6206B keeps an excellent constant switching
frequency under line and load variation and the integrated
synchronous power switches with the ACOT
TM
mode
operation provides high efficiency in whole output current
load range. Cycle-by-cycle current limit provides an
accurate protection by a valley detection of low-side
MOSFET and external soft-start setting eliminates input
current surge during startup. Protection functions include
thermal shutdown for RT6206B.
The RT6206B are available in the TSSOP-14 (Exposed
pad), SOP-8 (Exposed Pad) and WDFN-10L 3x3
packages.

Name
Pin Function
VOUT
Optional output voltage discharge connection. This
open drain output connects to ground when the
device is disabled. If output voltage discharge is
desired, connect VOUT to the output voltage.
Feedback voltage input. It is used to regulate the
output of the converter to a set value via an external
resistive voltage divider. The feedback threshold
voltage is 0.765V typically.
Internal regulator output. Connect a 1F capacitor to
GND to stabilize output voltage.
Soft-start time setting. Connect an external capacitor
between this pin and GND to set the soft- start time.
Analog ground.
Open drain power good indicator output.
Enable control input. A logic-high enables the
converter; a logic-low forces the IC into shutdown
mode reducing the supply current to less than 10A.
Power ground. The exposed pad must be soldered
to a large PCB and connected to PGND for
maximum power dissipation.
Switch node. Connect this pin to an external L-C
filter.
Bootstrap supply for high-side gate driver. Connect a
0.1F capacitor between the BOOT and SW pin.
Power input. The input voltage range is from 4.5V to
18V. Must bypass with a suitably large ( 10F x 2)
ceramic capacitor.
Internal linear regulator supply input. For the
TSSOP-14 (Exposed Pad) package, VINR supplies
power for the internal linear regulator that powers
the IC. Connect VIN to the input voltage and bypass
to ground with a 0.1F ceramic capacitor.

Operation
The RT6206B is a synchronous step-down converter with
advanced constant on-time control mode. Using the
ACOT
TM
control mode can reduce the output capacitance
and provide fast transient response. It can minimize the
component size without additional external compensation
network.
Internal Regulator
The regulator provides 5.1V power to supply the internal
control circuit. Connecting a 1μF ceramic capacitor for
decoupling and stability is required.
Soft-Start
In order to prevent the converter output voltage from
overshooting during the startup period, the soft-start
function is necessary. The soft-start time is adjustable
and can be set by an external capacitor.
UVLO Protection
To protect the chip from operating at insufficient supply
voltage, the UVLO is needed. When the input voltage of
VIN is lower than the UVLO falling threshold voltage, the
device will be latch-off.
Thermal Shutdown
When the junction temperature exceeds the OTP
threshold value, the IC will shut down the switching
operation. Once the junction temperature cools down and
is lower than the OTP lower threshold, the converter will
automatically resume switching
Power Good (for TSSOP-14 (Exposed Pad) and
WDFN-10L 3x3 only)
After soft-start is finished, the power good function will be
activated. When the FB is activated, the PGOOD will
become an open-drain output. If the FB is below, the
PGOOD pin will be pulled low.
