The RT6338E/EH family are high efficiency synchronous step-down DC-DC converters with pseudo constant switching frequency 500kHz and deliver up to 8A output current. The RT6338E/EH operate from 4.5V to 23V input voltage. The output voltage of RT6338E/EH is fixed to 3.36V output voltage.
The RT6338E/EH adopts Advanced Constant On-Time (ACOT®) control architecture that provides ultra-fast transient response and further reduces the external component count. In steady states, the ACOT® operates at nearly constant switching frequency over line, load and output voltage ranges and makes the EMI filter design easier.
By setting the voltage of the EN/MODE pin, RT6338E/EH operates either in diode emulation mode (DEM) or ultrasonic mode (USM) at light load. The USM maintains operation frequency above 25kHz, which eliminates the acoustic noise. In the DEM, RT6338E/EH provides the best light-load efficiency and improves the acoustic noise with spread spectrum function.
RT6338E/EH provides PGOOD indicator for easy system sequence control. Full protection features are also integrated in the device, including the cycle-by-cycle current limit, OVP, UVP, input UVLO and OTP.
All above functions are integrated in a UQFN-23L 3x3 (FC) package.
