The RT4723QWSC is a high-efficiency, synchronous rectified, step-down DC-DC converter. It's designed for applications requiring a compact solution with a wide input voltage range. It operates with a constant on-time (COT) control architecture, which provides fast transient response and simplifies loop compensation.
Applications:
- Point-of-Load (POL) Converters
- Consumer Electronics such as tablets and smartphones
- Industrial Equipment
- Distributed Power Systems
- FPGA, DSP & Microprocessor core and I/O power
Features:
- Wide Input Voltage Range: Typically from 4.5V to 18V
- High Efficiency: Achieved through synchronous rectification
- Constant On-Time (COT) Control: Ensures fast transient response
- Adjustable Output Voltage: Allows for flexible design options
- Output Voltage Accuracy: Provides stable and reliable power delivery
- Over-Current Protection (OCP): Protects the converter from damage due to excessive current draw
- Over-Voltage Protection (OVP): Prevents the output voltage from exceeding a safe level
- Under-Voltage Protection (UVP): Shuts down the converter if the input voltage drops too low
- Thermal Shutdown: Protects the converter from overheating
- Available in a compact package: QWSC package for space-constrained applications
Benefits:
- Improved System Performance: The fast transient response of the COT control architecture ensures stable power delivery, even under rapidly changing load conditions.
