RT8259A Datasheet, PDF (1/11 Pages) Richtek Technology Corporation – The RT8259A is a monolithic step-down switch mode
RT8259A
1.5A, 24V, 1.4MHz Step-Down Converter
General Description
The RT8259A is a monolithic step-down switch mode
converter with a built-in power MOSFET. It achieves 1.5A
output current over a wide input supply range with excellent
load and line regulation. Current Mode operation provides
fast transient response and eases loop stabilization. The
chip also provides protection functions such as cycle-by-
cycle current limiting and thermal shutdown protection.
