The RT5789A/B is a simple, easy-to-use, 6A synchronous step-down DC-DC converter with an input supply voltage range of 2.5V to 6V. The device build-in an accurate 0.6V (±1.5%) reference voltage and can operate in 100% duty cycle as a very low dropout voltage regulator. the RT5789A/B integrates low RDS(ON) power MOSFETs to achieve high efficiency and is available in TSOT-23-8 (FC) package and UDFN-8L 2.5x2(FC) package.

The RT5789A/B adopts Advanced Constant On-Time (ACOT®) control architecture to provide an ultrafast transient response with few external components and to operate in nearly constant switching frequency over the line, load, and output voltage range. The RT5789A/B is designed to operate at 1.5MHz fixed frequency. While the RT5789A automatically enters power saving mode (PSM) operation at light load to maintain high efficiency. RT5789B operates in Forced PWM over the loading range, that helps meet tight voltage regulation accuracy requirements.

The RT5789A/B senses both FETs current for a robust over-current protection. It prevents the device from the catastrophic damage in output short circuit, over current or inductor saturation. The individual enable control input and power good indicator provides flexible system power sequence control a built-in soft-start function prevents inrush current during start-up. The device also includes input under-voltage lockout, output under-voltage protection, and over-temperature protection (thermal shutdown) to provide safe and smooth operation in all operating conditions.

The recommended junction temperature range is -40°C to 125°C and ambient temperature range is -40°C to 85°C.
