RT9224
5-Bit Programmable Synchronous PWM Buck Converter
Controller and Output Voltage Monitor
General Description
The RT9224 is a high speed switching controller
designed for use in synchronous DC/DC buck
converter for modern CPUs. The regulated output
voltage is digitally programmable from 1.3V to 3.5V
by a 5-bit DAC which provides initial accuracy of
±1%. The RT9224 drives two external N-channel
MOSFETs, providing high efficiency and eliminating
the need for high cost P-channel devices. It senses
the output current across the on-resistance of the
upper N-channel MOSFET and provides an
adjustable current limit without external sense
resistor.
RT9224 monitors the output voltage and provides
the output signal for power-good and over-voltage
protection. The switching controller drivers two N-
MOSFETs at 200kHz frequency and provides an
optimal solution for size, efficiency and cost in any
application circuits. The high switching frequency
cooperating with a high speed error amplifier
maintains a fast response to the dynamic load of
modern CPUs.
