RT9261A-50GB

The RT9261A-50GB is a DC-DC Switching Regulator, which is often referred to as a PMIC (Power Management IC). The DC-DC regulators in this family can take a given input voltage range and convert it to the desired output voltage. RT9261A-50GB is one such DC-DC Switching Regulator which offers the following features:

• 50V Output voltage range
• 2A Output current capability
• 85dB PSRR (SWPSRR) @ 1kHz
• Low quiescent current (9.1mA)
• Low shutdown current (3.3µA)
• Integrated FETs
• Fixed Frequency PWM Control
• Built In Soft-Start
• Over Temperature and Over Current Protection
• Thermal Shutdown Protection

RT9261A-50GB, is a high-speed, high-efficiency, low-ripple dc-dc step-up converter, especially suitable for industrial and automotive applications. The integrated FETs enable internal switching and provide significantly higher efficiency compared to linear regulators.

The primary component of the RT9261A-50GB is a pulse-width modulation (PWM) controller, which is responsible for controlling the operation of the converter by varying the ratio of an on-time signal to an off-time signal. This on/off cycle is used to create the desired output voltage, and is controlled and adjusted as needed by the controller.

The PWM controller of the RT9261A-50GB can operate in two different modes: Fixed Frequency PWM and Pulse Frequency Modulation (PFM). In Fixed Frequency PWM Mode, the controller will operate at a fixed frequency, set by an external resistor. The benefits of this mode are that it provides a stable output voltage, and also can achieve maximum efficiency for a given load. In PFM mode, the controller is able to adjust the frequency of operation depending on the load, so that it can achieve greater efficiency at lower loads.

The controller is built with several protections, such as Over-Temperature Protection and Over-Current Protection. The Over-Temperature Protection is designed to monitor the junction temperature and will shut down the converter if it exceeds a certain level. The Over-Current Protection is designed to monitor the output current and will shut down if it exceeds a certain level. These two protection features were designed to protect the converter and ensure safe operation.

The RT9261A-50GB also supports a programmable Soft-Start feature, which can be set with an external capacitor. This will enable the controller to gradually ramp up the output voltage to its desired setpoint, so that it will be able to smoothly transition from an off state to a steady-state. This can reduce the inrush current and provide a smoother output voltage waveform.

The RT9261A-50GB is an excellent PMIC for many industrial and automotive applications. It is a reliable, high-efficiency DC-DC Switching Regulator, capable of providing a stable output voltage over a wide range of load conditions. It is equipped with several protective features, and can also be configured with a programmable soft-start feature. All these features make the RT9261A-50GB an ideal choice for many power management applications.
