Preliminary
RT9261/A
VFM Step-up DC/DC Converter
General Description
The RT9261 Series are VFM Step-up DC/DC ICs with ultra low supply current by CMOS process and suitable for use with battery-powered instruments. The RT9261 IC consists of an oscillator, a VFM control circuit, a driver transistor (LX switch), a reference voltage unit, an error amplifier, resistors for voltage detection, and a LX switch protection circuit. A low ripple and high efficiency step-up DC/DC converter can be constructed of this RT9261 IC with only three external components. The RT9261A IC provides with a drive pin (EXT) for an external transistor, so that a power transistor can be externally applied. Therefore, the RT9261A IC is recommended for applications where large currents are required.
