An adjustable soft-start reduces the stress on the input
source at startup. In shutdown mode, the regulator draws
only 25μA of supply current. The RT2808A requires a
minimum number of readily available external
components, providing a compact solution. The RT2808A
provides protection functions inducing input under voltage
lockout, cycle-by-cycle current limit, short circuit
protection and thermal shutdown protection.

RT2808A
Operation
The RT2808A is a constant frequency, current mode
asynchronous step-down converter. In normal operation,
the high side N-MOSFET is turned on when the S-R latch
is set by the oscillator and is turned off when the current
comparator resets the S-R latch. While the N-MOSFET
is turned off, the inductor current conducts through the
external diode.
Error Amplifier
The error amplifier adjusts its output voltage by comparing
the feedback signal (V FB) with the internal 1.222V
reference. When the load current increases, it causes a
drop in the feedback voltage relative to the reference, the
error amplifier's output voltage then rises to allow higher
inductor current to match the load current.
Oscillator
The internal oscillator runs at fixed frequency 500kHz. In
short circuit condition, the frequency is reduced to 150kHz
for low power consumption.
Enable
The converter is turned on when the EN pin is higher than
1.4V and turned off when the EN pin is lower than 0.4V.
When the EN pin is open, it will be pulled up to logic-high
by 1μA current internally.
Soft-Start (SS)
An internal current source charges an internal capacitor
to build a soft-start ramp voltage. The FB voltage will track
the internal ramp voltage during soft-start interval. The
typical soft-start time is 5ms.
Thermal Shutdown
The over temperature protection function will shut down
the switching operation when the junction temperature
exceeds 150°C. Once the junction temperature cools
down by approximately 30°C, the converter will
automatically resume switching.
Internal Regulator
The regulator provides low voltage power to supply the
internal control circuits and the bootstrap power for high
side gate driver.

RT2808A
Application Information
The RT2808A is an asynchronous high voltage buck
converter that can support the input voltage range from
5.5V to 36V and the output current can be up to 3A.
Output Voltage Setting
The resistive divider allows the FB pin to sense the output
voltage as shown in Figure 1.
VOUT
R1
FB
RT2808A
R2
GND
Figure 1. Output Voltage Setting
The output voltage is set by an external resistive divider
according to the following equation :
VOUT = VREF ⎛⎜ 1+ R1 ⎞⎟
⎝ R2 ⎠
Where VREF is the reference voltage (1.222V typ.).
Soft-Start
The RT2808A contains an internal soft-start clamp that
gradually raises the output voltage. The typical soft-start
time is 5ms.
Chip Enable Operation
The EN pin is the chip enable input. Pull the EN pin low
(<0.4V) will shutdown the device. During shutdown mode,
the RT2808A quiescent current drops to lower than 25μA.
Drive the EN pin to high (>1.4V, <5.5V) will turn on the
device again. If the EN pin is open, it will be pulled to high
by internal circuit. For external timing control (e.g.RC),
the EN pin can also be externally pulled to High by adding
a 100kΩ or greater resistor from the VIN pin (see Figure
3).
Inductor Selection
The inductor value and operating frequency determine the
ripple current according to a specific input and output
voltage. The ripple current ΔIL increases with higher VIN
and decreases with higher inductance.
Where R1 = 100kΩ.
V

ΔIL = ⎡⎢ OUT ⎤⎥ × ⎡⎢1− OUT ⎤⎥
VIN ⎦
⎣ f ×L ⎦ ⎣
External Bootstrap Diode
Having a lower ripple current reduces not only the ESR
losses in the output capacitors but also the output voltage
ripple. High frequency with small ripple current can achieve
highest efficiency operation. However, it requires a large
inductor to achieve this goal.
Connect a 10nF low ESR ceramic capacitor between the
BOOT pin and SW pin. This capacitor provides the gate
driver voltage for the high side MOSFET.
It is recommended to add an external bootstrap diode
between an external 5V and BOOT pin for efficiency
improvement when input voltage is lower than 5.5V or duty
ratio is higher than 65% .The bootstrap diode can be a
low cost one such as IN4148 or BAT54. The external 5V
can be a 5V fixed input from system or a 5V output of the
RT2808A.

For the ripple current selection, the value of ΔIL = 0.2(IMAX)
will be a reasonable starting point. The largest ripple
current occurs at the highest VIN. To guarantee that the
ripple current stays below the specified maximum, the
inductor value should be chosen according to the following
equation :
The inductor's current rating (caused a 40°C temperature
rising from 25°C ambient) should be greater than the
maximum load current and its saturation current should
be greater than the short circuit peak current limit. Please
see Table 2 for the inductor selection reference.

Diode Selection
When the power switch turns off, the path for the current
is through the diode connected between the switch output
and ground. This forward biased diode must have a
minimum voltage drop and recovery times. Schottky diode
is recommended and it should be able to handle those
current. The reverse voltage rating of the diode should be
greater than the maximum input voltage, and current rating
should be greater than the maximum load current. For
more detail please refer to Table 4.
CIN and COUT Selection
The input capacitance, C IN, is needed to filter the
trapezoidal current at the source of the high side MOSFET.
To prevent large ripple current, a low ESR input capacitor
sized for the maximum RMS current should be used. The
RMS current is given by :
V
IRMS = IOUT(MAX) OUT
VIN
VIN
−1
VOUT
This formula has a maximum at VIN = 2VOUT, where
IRMS = I OUT / 2. This simple worst-case condition is
commonly used for design because even significant
deviations do not offer much relief.
Choose a capacitor rated at a higher temperature than
required. Several capacitors may also be paralleled to
meet size or height requirements in the design.
For the input capacitor, two 4.7μF low ESR ceramic
capacitors are recommended. For the recommended
capacitor, please refer to Table 3 for more detail.
The selection of COUT is determined by the required ESR
to minimize voltage ripple.
Moreover, the amount of bulk capacitance is also a key
for COUT selection to ensure that the control loop is stable.
Loop stability can be checked by viewing the load transient
response as described in a later section.

DS2808A-00 November 2012
The output ripple, ΔVOUT , is determined by :
1
⎤
ΔVOUT ≤ ΔIL ⎡⎢ESR +
8fCOUT ⎦⎥
⎣
The output ripple will be highest at the maximum input
voltage since ΔIL increases with input voltage. Multiple
capacitors placed in parallel may be needed to meet the
ESR and RMS current handling requirement. Dry tantalum,
special polymer, aluminum electrolytic and ceramic
capacitors are all available in surface mount packages.
Special polymer capacitors offer very low ESR value.
However, it provides lower capacitance density than other
types. Although Tantalum capacitors have the highest
capacitance density, it is important to only use types that
pass the surge test for use in switching power supplies.
Aluminum electrolytic capacitors have significantly higher
ESR. However, it can be used in cost-sensitive applications
for ripple current rating and long term reliability
considerations. Ceramic capacitors have excellent low
ESR characteristics but can have a high voltage coefficient
and audible piezoelectric effects. The high Q of ceramic
capacitors with trace inductance can also lead to significant
ringing.
Higher values, lower cost ceramic capacitors are now
becoming available in smaller case sizes. Their high ripple
current, high voltage rating and low ESR make them ideal
for switching regulator applications. However, care must
be taken when these capacitors are used at input and
output. When a ceramic capacitor is used at the input
and the power is supplied by a wall adapter through long
wires, a load step at the output can induce ringing at the
input, VIN. A sudden inrush of current through the long
wires can potentially cause a voltage spike at VIN large
enough to damage the part.
Checking Transient Response
The regulator loop response can be checked by looking
at the load transient response. Switching regulators take
several cycles to respond to a step in load current. When
a load step occurs, VOUT immediately shifts by an amount
equal to ΔILOAD (ESR) also begins to charge or discharge
COUT generating a feedback error signal for the regulator
to return VOUT to its steady-state value. During this
recovery time, VOUT can be monitored for overshoot or
ringing that would indicate a stability problem.

RT2808A
For continuous operation, do not exceed the maximum
operation junction temperature. The maximum power
dissipation depends on the thermal resistance of IC
package, PCB layout, the rate of surroundings airflow and
temperature difference between junction to ambient. The
maximum power dissipation can be calculated by following
formula :
PD(MAX) = (TJ(MAX) − TA ) / θJA
Where T J(MAX) is the maximum operation junction
temperature , TA is the ambient temperature and the θJA is
the junction to ambient thermal resistance.
For recommended operating condition specifications, the
maximum junction temperature is 125°C. The junction to
ambient thermal resistance θJA is layout dependent. For
SOP-8 (Exposed Pad) package, the thermal resistance
θJA is 75°C/W on the standard JEDEC 51-7 four-layers
thermal test board. The maximum power dissipation at
TA = 25°C can be calculated by following formula :
The maximum power dissipation depends on the operating
ambient temperature for fixed T J(MAX) and thermal
resistance, θJA. The derating curve in Figure 4 of derating
curves allows the designer to see the effect of rising
ambient temperature on the maximum power dissipation
allowed.

determined by the package architecture design and the
PCB layout design. However, the package architecture
design had been designed. If possible, it's useful to
increase thermal performance by the PCB layout copper
design. The thermal resistance θJA can be decreased by
adding copper area under the exposed pad of SOP-8
(Exposed Pad) package.
As shown in Figure 3, the amount of copper area to which
the SOP-8 (Exposed Pad) is mounted affects thermal
performance. When mounted to the standard
SOP-8 (Exposed Pad) pad (Figure 3.a), θJA is 75°C/W.
Adding copper area of pad under the SOP-8 (Exposed
Pad) (Figure 3.b) reduces the θJA to 64°C/W. Even further,
increasing the copper area of pad to 70mm2 (Figure 3.e)
reduces the θJA to 49°C/W.
(a) Copper Area = (2.3 x 2.3) mm2, θJA = 75°C/W
(b) Copper Area = 10mm2, θJA = 64°C/W
(c) Copper Area = 30mm2, θJA = 54°C/W

Layout Consideration
Follow the PCB layout guidelines for optimal performance
of the RT2808A.
` Keep
the traces of the main current paths as short and
wide as possible.
(d) Copper Area = 50mm2, θJA = 51°C/W
` Put the input capacitor as close as possible to the device
pins (VIN and GND).
` SW node is with high frequency voltage swing and should
be kept at small area. Keep analog components away
from the SW node to prevent stray capacitive noise pickup.
` Connect feedback network behind the output capacitors.
Keep the loop area small. Place the feedback
components near the RT2808A.
(e) Copper Area = 70mm2, θJA = 49°C/W
Figure 3. Thermal Resistance vs. Copper Area Layout
Design
` Connect all analog grounds to a common node and then
connect the common node to the power ground behind
the output capacitors.
` An
example of PCB layout guide is shown in Figure 5
for reference.
SW should be connected to inductor by
wide and short trace. Keep sensitive
components away from this trace.
