RT8294
2A, 23V, 340kHz Synchronous Step-Down Converter
General Description
Features
The RT8294 is a high efficiency, monolithic synchronous
step-down DC/DC converter that can deliver up to 2A output
current from a 4.5V to 23V input supply. The RT8294's
current mode architecture and external compensation
allow the transient response to be optimized over a wide
range of loads and output capacitors. Cycle-by-cycle
current limit provides protection against shorted outputs
and soft-start eliminates input current surge during start
up. The RT8294 also provides under voltage protection
and thermal shutdown protection. The low current (< 3µA)
shutdown mode provides output disconnection, enabling
easy power management in battery-powered systems. The
RT8294 is available in SOP-8 and SOP-8 (Exposed Pad)
packages.

RT8294
Application Information
The RT8294 is a synchronous high voltage buck converter
that can support the input voltage range from 4.5V to 23V
and the output current can be up to 2A.
Output Voltage Setting
The resistive voltage divider allows the FB pin to sense
the output voltage as shown in Figure 1.
Soft-Start
The RT8294 contains an external soft-start clamp that
gradually raises the output voltage. The soft-start timing
can be programmed by the external capacitor between
SS pin and GND. The chip provides a 6µA charge current
for the external capacitor. If 0.1µF capacitor is used to
set the soft-start, the period will be 15.5ms (typ.).

Figure 1. Output Voltage Setting
The output voltage is set by an external resistive voltage
divider according to the following equation :
VOUT = VFB  1 + R1 
 R2 
where VFB is the feedback reference voltage 0.923V (typ.).
External Bootstrap Diode
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
RT8294. Note that the external boot voltage must be lower
than 5.5V
The EN pin is the chip enable input. Pulling the EN pin
low (<0.4V) will shut down the device. During shutdown
mode, the RT8294 quiescent current drops to lower than
3µA. Driving the EN pin high ( > 2.7V, < 5.5V) will turn on
the device again. For external timing control (e.g.RC),
the EN pin can also be externally pulled high by adding a
REN* resistor and CEN* capacitor from the VIN pin
(see Figure 5).
An external MOSFET can be added to implement digital
control on the EN pin when no system voltage above 2.5V
is available, as shown in Figure 3. In this case, a 100kΩ
pull-up resistor, REN, is connected between VIN and the
EN pin. MOSFET Q1 will be under logic control to pull
down the EN pin.

To prevent enabling circuit when VIN is smaller than the
VOUT target value, a resistive voltage divider can be placed
between the input voltage and ground and connected to
the EN pin to adjust IC lockout threshold, as shown in
Figure 4. For example, if an 8V output voltage is regulated
from a 12V input voltage, the resistor, REN2, can be
selected to set input lockout threshold larger than 8V.

Hiccup Mode
For the RT8294, Hiccup Mode Under Voltage Protection
(UVP) is provided. When the FB voltage, VFB, drops below
0.5V, the UVP function will be triggered and the RT8294
will shut down for a period of time and then recover
automatically. The Hiccup Mode UVP can reduce input
current in short circuit conditions.
Inductor Selection
The inductor value and operating frequency determine the
ripple current according to a specific input and output
voltage. The ripple current ∆IL increases with higher VIN
and decreases with higher inductance.

∆IL =  OUT  × 1 − OUT 

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.

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, one 10µF 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.
For the ripple current selection, the value of ∆IL = 0.24(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 output ripple will be highest at the maximum input
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.

capacitors placed in parallel may be needed to meet the

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.
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 ∆ILOAD (ESR) and COUT also begins to be charge
or discharged to generate 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.
EMI Consideration
Since parasitic inductance and capacitance effects in PCB
circuitry would cause a spike voltage on SW pin when
high side MOSFET is turned-on/off, this spike voltage on
SW may impact on EMI performance in the system. In
order to enhance EMI performance, there are two methods
to suppress the spike voltage. One way is by placing an
R-C snubber between SW and GND and locating them as
close as possible to the SW pin (see Figure 5). Another
method is by adding a resistor in series with the bootstrap
capacitor, CBOOT , but this method will decrease the driving
capability to the high side MOSFET. It is strongly
recommended to reserve the R-C snubber during PCB
layout for EMI improvement. Moreover, reducing the SW
trace area and keeping the main power in a small loop will
be helpful on EMI performance. For detailed PCB layout
guide, please refer to the section Layout Considerations.
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. At best, this ringing can couple to the output
and be mistaken as loop instability. At worst, a sudden
inrush of current through the long wires can potentially
cause a voltage spike at VIN large enough to damage the
part.

Thermal Considerations
For continuous operation, do not exceed absolute
maximum operation junction temperature 125°C. The
maximum power dissipation depends on the thermal
resistance of IC package, PCB layout, the rate of
surroundings airflow and temperature difference between
junctions to ambient. The maximum power dissipation can
be calculated by following formula :
PD(MAX) = (TJ(MAX) − TA) / θJA
6.b) reduces the θJA to 64°C/W. Even further, increasing
the copper area of pad to 70mm2 (Figure 6.e) reduces the
θJA to 49°C/W.
The maximum power dissipation depends on operating
ambient temperature for fixed T J(MAX) and thermal
resistance θJA. For RT8294 packages, the of de-rating
curves in Figure 7 allow the designer to see the effect of
rising ambient temperature on the maximum power
dissipation allowed.
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.
P D(MAX) = (125°C − 25°C) / (75°C/W ) = 1. 33W

Power Dissipation (W)
For recommended operating conditions specification of
RT8294, 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. For SOP-8 package,
the thermal resistance θJA is 90°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 thermal resistance θJA of SOP-8 (Exposed Pad) is
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 6, the amount of copper area to which
the SOP-8 (Exposed Pad) is mounted affects thermal

(Exposed Pad) pad (Figure 6.a), θJA is 75°C/W. Adding
