RT9706
Applications Information
The RT9706 is a single N-Channel MOSFET high-side
power switch with active-low enable input, optimized for
self-powered and bus-powered Universal Serial Bus (USB)
applications. The RT9706 equipped with a charge pump
circuitry to drive the internal NMOS switch; the switch's
low RDS(ON), 80mΩ, meets USB voltage drop requirements;
and a flag output is available to indicate fault conditions
to the local USB controller.
Input and Output
VIN (input) is the power source connection to the internal
circuitry and the drain of the MOSFET. VOUT (output) is
the source of the MOSFET. In a typical application, current
flows through the switch from VIN to VOUT toward the load.
If VOUT is greater than VIN, current will flow from VOUT to
VIN since the MOSFET is bidirectional when on.
Unlike a normal MOSFET, there is no a parasitic body
diode between drain and source of the MOSFET, the
RT9706 prevents reverse current flow if VOUT being
externally forced to a higher voltage than VIN when the
output disabled (VEN > 2V).

RT9706
Figure 1
Chip Enable Input
The switch will be disabled when the EN pin is in a logic
high condition. During this condition, the internal circuitry
and MOSFET are turned off, reducing the supply current
to 0.1μA typical. The maximum guaranteed voltage for a
logic low at the EN pin is 0.8V. A minimum guaranteed
voltage of 2V at the EN pin will turn the RT9706 off. Floating
the input may cause unpredictable operation. EN should
not be allowed to go negative with respect to GND.
www.richtek.com

Soft Start for Hot Plug-In Applications
In order to eliminate the upstream voltage droop caused
by the large inrush current during hot-plug events, the
“soft-start” feature effectively isolates the power source
from extremely large capacitive loads, satisfying the USB
voltage droop requirements.
Fault Flag
The RT9706 provides a FLG signal pin which is an
N-Channel open drain MOSFET output. This open drain
output goes low when VOUT < VIN − 1V, current limit or
the die temperature exceeds 130°C approximately. The
FLG output is capable of sinking a 10mA load to typically
200mV above ground. The FLG pin requires a pull-up
resistor, this resistor should be large in value to reduce
energy drain. A 100kΩ pull-up resistor works well for most
applications. In the case of an over-current condition, FLG
will be asserted only after the flag response delay time,
tD, has elapsed. This ensures that FLG is asserted only
upon valid over-current conditions and that erroneous error
reporting is eliminated. The FLG response delay time tD
is typically 12ms.
For example, false over-current conditions may occur
during hot-plug events when extremely large capacitive
loads are connected and causes a high transient inrush
current that exceeds the current limit threshold.
Under-Voltage Lockout
Under-voltage lockout (UVLO) prevents the MOSFET
switch from turning on until input voltage exceeds
approximately 1.7V. If input voltage drops below
approximately 1.3V, UVLO turns off the MOSFET switch,
FLG will be asserted accordingly. Under-voltage detection
functions only when the switch is enabled.
Current Limiting and Short-Circuit Protection
The current limit circuitry prevents damage to the MOSFET
switch and the hub downstream port but can deliver load
current up to the current limit threshold of typically 800mA
through the switch of RT9706. When a heavy load or short
circuit is applied to an enabled switch, a large transient
current may flow until the current limit circuitry responds.
DS9706-04 April 2011
RT9706
Once this current limit threshold is exceeded the device
enters constant current mode until the thermal shutdown
occurs or the fault is removed.
The maximum power dissipation at TA = 25°C can be
calculated by following formula :
Thermal Shutdown
P D(MAX) = (125°C − 25°C) / 250°C/W = 0.4 W for
SOT-23-5 packages
Thermal shutdown is employed to protect the device from
damage if the die temperature exceeds approximately
130°C. If enabled, the switch automatically restarts when
the die temperature falls 20°C. The output and FLG signal
will continue to cycle on and off until the device is disabled
or the fault is removed.
The maximum power dissipation depends on operating
ambient temperature for fixed T J(MAX) and thermal
resistance θJA. For RT9706 packages, the Figure 2 of
derating curves allows the designer to see the effect of
rising ambient temperature on the maximum power
allowed.
0.6
The device “S” junction temperature depends on several
factors such as the load, PCB layout, ambient temperature
and package type. The output pin of RT9706 can deliver a
current of up to 500mA, respectively over the full operating
junction temperature range. However, the maximum output
current must be derated at higher ambient temperature to
ensure the junction temperature does not exceed 100°C.
With all possible conditions, the junction temperature must
be within the range specified under operating conditions.
Power dissipation can be calculated based on the output
current and the RDS(ON) of switch as below.

Although the devices are rated for 500mA of output current,
but the application may limit the amount of output current
based on the total power dissipation and the ambient
temperature. The final operating junction temperature for
any set of conditions can be estimated by the following
thermal equation :
Figure 2. Derating Curves for RT9706 Package
Universal Serial Bus (USB) & Power Distribution
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.
The goal of USB is to be enabled device from different
vendors to interoperate in an open architecture. USB
features include ease of use for the end user, a wide range
of workloads and applications, robustness, synergy with
the PC industry, and low-cost implement- ation. Benefits
include self-identifying peripherals, dynamically attachable
and reconfigurable peripherals, multiple connections
(support for concurrent operation of many devices), support
for as many as 127 physical devices, and compatibility
with PC Plug-and-Play architecture.
For recommended operating conditions specification of
RT9706, where T J(MAX) is the maximum junction
temperature of the die (125°C) and TA is the maximum
ambient temperature. The junction to ambient thermal
resistance θ JA is layout dependent. For SOT-23-5
packages, the thermal resistance θJA is 250°C/W on the
standard JEDEC 51-3 single-layer thermal test board.
The Universal Serial Bus connects USB devices with a
USB host: each USB system has one USB host. USB
devices are classified either as hubs, which provide
additional attachment points to the USB, or as functions,
which provide capabilities to the system (for example, a
digital joystick). Hub devices are then classified as either
Bus-Power Hubs or Self-Powered Hubs.

RT9706
A Bus-Powered Hub draws all of the power to any internal
functions and downstream ports from the USB connector
power pins. The hub may draw up to 500mA from the
upstream device. External ports in a Bus-Powered Hub
can supply up to 100mA per port, with a maximum of four
external ports.
Self-Powered Hub power for the internal functions and
downstream ports does not come from the USB, although
the USB interface may draw up to 100mA from its
upstream connect, to allow the interface to function when
the remainder of the hub is powered down. The hub must
be able to supply up to 500mA on all of its external
downstream ports. Please refer to Universal Serial
Specification Revision 2.0 for more details on designing
compliant USB hub and host systems.
Over-Current protection devices such as fuses and PTC
resistors (also called polyfuse or polyswitch) have slow
trip times, high on-resistance, and lack the necessary
circuitry for USB-required fault reporting.
The faster trip time of the RT9706 power distribution allow
designers to design hubs that can operate through faults.
The RT9706 have low on-resistance and internal faultreporting circuitry that help the designer to meet voltage
regulation and fault notification requirements.
Because the devices are also power switches, the designer
of self-powered hubs has the flexibility to turn off power to
output ports. Unlike a normal MOSFET, the devices have
controlled rise and fall times to provide the needed inrush
current limiting required for the bus-powered hub power
switch.
Supply Filter/Bypass Capacitor
A 1μF low-ESR ceramic capacitor from VIN to GND,
located at the device is strongly recommended to prevent
the input voltage drooping during hot-plug events. However,
higher capacitor values will further reduce the voltage droop
on the input. Furthermore, without the bypass capacitor,
an output short may cause sufficient ringing on the input
(from source lead inductance) to destroy the internal
control circuitry. The input transient must not exceed 6.5V
of the absolute maximum supply voltage even for a short
duration.
www.richtek.com
12
Output Filter Capacitor
A low-ESR 150μF aluminum electrolytic or tantalum
between VOUT and GND is strongly recommended to meet
the 330mV maximum droop requirement in the hub VBUS
(Per USB 2.0, output ports must have a minimum 120μF
of low-ESR bulk capacitance per hub). Standard bypass
methods should be used to minimize inductance and
resistance between the bypass capacitor and the
downstream connector to reduce EMI and decouple voltage
droop caused when downstream cables are hot-insertion
transients. Ferrite beads in series with VBUS, the ground
line and the 0.1μF bypass capacitors at the power
connector pins are recommended for EMI and ESD
protection. The bypass capacitor itself should have a low
dissipation factor to allow decoupling at higher frequencies.
Fault Flag Filtering (Optional)
The transient inrush current to downstream capacitance
may cause a short-duration error flag, which may cause
erroneous over-current reporting. A simple 1ms RC lowpass filter (10kΩ and 0.1μF) in the flag line (see Typical
Application Circuit) eliminates short-duration transients.
Voltage Drop
The USB specification states a minimum port-output
voltage in two locations on the bus, 4.75V out of a SelfPowered Hub port and 4.4V out of a Bus-Powered Hub
port. As with the Self-Powered Hub, all resistive voltage
drops for the Bus-Powered Hub must be accounted for to
guarantee voltage regulation (see Figure 7-47 of Universal
Serial Specification Revision 2.0 ).
The following calculation determines VOUT (MIN) for multiple ports (NPORTS) ganged together through one switch (if
using one switch per port, NPORTS is equal to 1) :
VOUT (MIN) = 4.75V
− [ II x ( 4 x RCONN + 2 x RCABLE ) ] −
(0.1A x NPORTS x RSWITCH )
− VPCB
Where
RCONN : Resistance of connector contacts
(two contacts per connector)
RCABLE : Resistance of upstream cable wires
(one 5V and one GND)

RSWITCH : Resistance of power switch
(80mΩ typical for RT9706)
z
Locate the ceramic bypass capacitors as close as
possible to the VIN pins of the RT9706.
VPCB : PCB voltage drop
VBUS
VIN
VOUT
The USB specification defines the maximum resistance
per contact (RCONN) of the USB connector to be 30mΩ
and the drop across the PCB and switch to be 100mV.
This basically leaves two variables in the equation : the
resistance of the switch and the resistance of the cable.
FLG
If the hub consumes the maximum current (II) of 500mA,
the maximum resistance of the cable is 90mΩ.
GND_BUS
The resistance of the switch is defined as follows :
RSWITCH = { 4.75V
− 4.4V − [ 0.5A x ( 4 x 30mΩ + 2 x
90mΩ) ]
− VPCB } ÷ ( 0.1A x NPORTS )
= (200mV − VPCB ) ÷ ( 0.1A x NPORTS )
If the voltage drop across the PCB is limited to 100mV,
the maximum resistance for the switch is 250mΩ for four
ports ganged together. The RT9706, with its maximum
100mΩ on-resistance over temperature, easily meets this
requirement.
PCB Layout
In order to meet the voltage drop, droop, and EMI
requirements, careful PCB layout is necessary. The
following guidelines must be considered :

Keep all VBUS traces as short as possible and use at
least 50-mil, 2 ounce copper for all VBUS traces.
Avoid vias as much as possible. If vias are necessary,
make them as large as feasible.

Board Layout
ESD
Because USB is a hot insertion and removal system, USB
components (especially the connector pins) are subject
to electrostatic discharge (ESD) and should be qualified
to IEC801.2. The RT9706 is designed to withstand a 8kV
human body mode, as defined in MIL-STD-883C. The
requirements in IEC801.2 are much more stringent and
require additional capacitors for the RT9706 to withstand
the higher ESD energy.
Low-ESR 1μF ceramic bypass capacitors and output
capacitors should be placed as closely as possible to the
VIN and VOUT pins to increase the ESD immunity. The
RT9706 may pass the requirements of IEC 1000-4-2
(EN 50082-1) level-4 for 15kV air discharge and 8kV contact
discharge tests when these capacitors are added.
Place a ground plane under all circuitry to lower both
resistance and inductance and improve DC and transient
performance (Use a separate ground and power plans if
possible).
Place cuts in the ground plane between ports to help
reduce the coupling of transients between ports.
Locate the output capacitor and ferrite beads as close
to the USB connectors as possible to lower impedance
(mainly inductance) between the port and the capacitor
and improve transient load performance.
Locate the RT9706 as close as possible to the output
port to limit switching noise.
