Operation
The RT5711D is a synchronous low voltage step-down
converter that can support the input voltage range from
2.5V to 6V and the output current can be up to 1.5A.
The RT5711D uses a constant on-time, current mode
architecture. In normal operation, the high-side
P-MOSFET is turned on when the switch controller is
set by the comparator and is turned off when the Ton
UV Comparator
comparator resets the switch controller.
Enable Comparator
Low-side MOSFET peak current is measured by
internal RSENSE. The error amplifier EA adjusts
COMP voltage by comparing the feedback signal (VFB)
from the output voltage with the internal 0.6V reference.
When the load current increases, it causes a drop in
the feedback voltage relative to the reference, then the
COMP voltage rises to allow higher inductor current to
match the load current.
A logic-high enables the converter; a logic-low forces
the IC into shutdown mode.

If the feedback voltage (VFB) is lower than threshold
voltage 0.2V, the UV comparator's output will go high
and the switch controller will turn off the high-side
MOSFET. The output under voltage protection is
designed to operate in Hiccup mode.
Soft-Start (SS)
An internal current source charges an internal capacitor
to build the soft-start ramp voltage. The VFB voltage will
track the internal ramp voltage during soft-start interval.
The typical soft-start time is 1.2ms.

RT5711D
Over Current Protection (OCP)
The RT5711D provides over current protection by
detecting low-side MOSFET valley inductor current. If
the sensed valley inductor current is over the current
limit threshold (1.8A typ.), the OCP will be triggered.
When OCP is tripped, the RT5711D will keep the over
current threshold level until the over current condition is
removed.
Thermal Shutdown (OTP)
The device implements an internal thermal shutdown
function when the junction temperature exceeds 150°C.
The thermal shutdown forces the device to stop
switching when the junction temperature exceeds the
thermal shutdown threshold. Once the die temperature
decreases below the hysteresis of 20°C, the device
reinstates the power up sequence.

RT5711D
Application Information
The RT5711D is a single-phase step-down converter. It
provides single feedback loop, constant on-time current
voltage at the FB pin, causing PWM pulse width to
increase slowly and in turn reduce the input surge
mode control with fast transient response. An internal
0.6V reference allows the output voltage to be precisely
regulated for low output voltage applications. A fixed
switching frequency (1MHz) oscillator and internal
compensation are integrated to minimize external
component count. Protection features include over
current protection, under voltage protection and over
temperature protection.
current. The internal 0.6V reference takes over the loop
control once the internal ramping-up voltage becomes
higher than 0.6V.
Output Voltage Setting
Connect a resistive voltage divider at the FB between
VOUT and GND to adjust the output voltage. The output
voltage is set according to the following equation :
VOUT = VREF   1 R1 
 R2 
UVLO Protection
The RT5711D has input Under Voltage Lockout
protection (UVLO). If the input voltage exceeds the
UVLO rising threshold voltage (2.25V typ.), the
converter resets and prepares the PWM for operation.
If the input voltage falls below the UVLO falling
threshold voltage during normal operation, the device
will stop switching. The UVLO rising and falling
threshold voltage has a hysteresis to prevent
noise-caused reset.

The EN pin allows for power sequencing between the
controller bias voltage and another voltage rail. The
RT5711D remains in shutdown if the EN pin is lower
than 400mV. When the EN pin rises above the VEN trip
point, the RT5711D begins a new initialization and
soft-start cycle.
Internal Soft-Start
The RT5711D provides an internal soft-start function to
prevent large inrush current and output voltage
overshoot when the converter starts up. The soft-start
(SS) automatically begins once the chip is enabled.
During soft-start, the internal soft-start capacitor
becomes charged and generates a linear ramping up
voltage across the capacitor. This voltage clamps the

must be large enough not to saturate at the peak
inductor current (IPEAK) :
IPEAK = ILOAD(MAX) +  LIR  ILOAD(MAX) 
 2

The calculation above serves as a general reference.
To further improve transient response, the output
inductor can be further reduced. This relation should be
considered along with the selection of the output
capacitor.
Inductor saturation current should be chosen over IC’s
current limit.
Input Capacitor Selection
High quality ceramic input decoupling capacitor, such
as X5R or X7R, with values greater than 10F are
recommended for the input capacitor. The X5R and

X7R ceramic capacitors are usually selected for power
regulator capacitors because the dielectric material has
less capacitance variation and more temperature
Another parameter that has influence on the output
voltage sag is the equivalent series inductance (ESL).
The rapid change in load current results in di/dt during
stability.
transient. Therefore, the ESL contributes to part of the
voltage sag. Using a capacitor with low ESL can obtain
better transient performance. Generally, using several
capacitors connected in parallel can have better
transient performance than using a single capacitor for
the same total ESR.
Voltage rating and current rating are the key
parameters when selecting an input capacitor.
Generally, selecting an input capacitor with voltage
rating 1.5 times greater than the maximum input
voltage is a conservatively safe design.
The input capacitor is used to supply the input RMS
current, which can be approximately calculated using
the following equation :
IIN_RMS = ILOAD 
VOUT
VIN
V
  1 OUT 
VIN 

The next step is selecting a proper capacitor for RMS
current rating. One good design uses more than one
capacitor with low equivalent series resistance (ESR) in
parallel to form a capacitor bank.
The input capacitance value determines the input ripple
voltage of the regulator. The input voltage ripple can be
approximately calculated using the following equation :
VIN =
IOUT(MAX) VOUT

CIN  fSW

  1 OUT 
VIN 

Output Capacitor Selection
The output capacitor and the inductor form a low pass
filter in the Buck topology. In steady state condition, the
ripple current flowing into/out of the capacitor results in
ripple voltage. The output voltage ripple (VP-P) can be
calculated by the following equation :
1

VP_P = LIR  ILOAD(MAX)   ESR +
8  COUT  fSW 

When load transient occurs, the output capacitor
supplies the load current before the controller can
respond. Therefore, the ESR will dominate the output
voltage sag during load transient. The output voltage
undershoot (VSAG) can be calculated by the following
equation :
Thermal Considerations
For continuous operation, do not exceed absolute
maximum junction temperature. The maximum power
dissipation depends on the thermal resistance of the IC
package, PCB layout, rate of surrounding airflow, and
difference between junction and ambient temperature.
The maximum power dissipation can be calculated by
the following formula :
PD(MAX) = (TJ(MAX)  TA) / JA
where TJ(MAX) is the maximum junction temperature,
TA is the ambient temperature, and JA 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, JA, is layout
dependent. For WDFN-6L 2x2 package, the thermal
resistance, JA, is 47.5C/W on a standard four-layer
thermal test board. The maximum power dissipation at
TA = 25C can be calculated by the following formula :
PD(MAX) = (125C  25C) / (47.5C/W) = 2.1W for
WDFN-6L 2x2 package
The maximum power dissipation depends on the
operating ambient temperature for fixed TJ(MAX) and
thermal resistance, JA. The derating curve in Figure 2
allows the designer to see the effect of rising ambient
temperature on the maximum power dissipation.
VSAG = ILOAD  ESR
For a given output voltage sag specification, the ESR
value can be determined.
