RP402x Series
High Efficiency Small Packaged Step-up DC/DC Converter
No. EA-317-200604
OUTLINE
The RP402x is a high efficiency step-up DC/DC converter with synchronous rectifier. The device can start up with low voltage of typically 0.7 V which is ideal for the applications powered by either one-cell or two-cell alkaline, nickel-metal-hydride (NiMH) or one-cell Lithium-ion (Li+) batteries.
Internally, the RP402x consists of an oscillator, a reference voltage unit with soft start, a chip enable circuit, an error amplifier, phase compensation circuits, a slope circuit, a PWM control circuit, a start-up circuit, a PWM/VFM mode control circuit, internal switches and protection circuits.
