RT6154BGQW Evaluation Board your power partner. High Efficiency Single Inductor Buck-Boost Converter Purpose The startup voltage of the RT6154B is around 1.8V to 5.5V. When Input voltage is greater than 1.8V in light Load and heavy Load, the RT6154B feedback loop is internally compensated for both Buck and Boost operation and it provides seamless transition between Buck and Boost modes and optimal transient response.

Introduction General Product Information RT6154B is a high efficiency single inductor Buck-Boost Converter which can operate with wide input voltage such as battery which is higher or lower than the output voltage and it can supply the load current up to 4A. The maximum average current in the switches is limited to a typical value of 5A. The RT6154B feedback loop is internally compensated for both Buck and Boost operation and it provides seamless transition between Buck and Boost modes and optimal transient response. The RT6154B operates at 2.4MHz typical switching frequency in full synchronous operation. The RT6154B operates in Pulse Skipped Modulation (PSM) mode for increasing efficiency during low power RF transmission modes. The Power Save Mode can be disabled, forcing the RT6154B to operate at a fixed switching frequency. The RT6154B output voltage is fixed internally to 3.3V. Product Feature Operates from a Single Li-ion Cell : 1.8V to 5.5V Fixed Output Voltage 3.3V PSM Operation 3A Maximum Load Capability for VIN > 3.6V, VOUT = 3.3V 2.4MHz (typ.)
