Ricoh RP506K Series Step-down DC/DC Converter Datasheet

The RP506K Series are low supply current CMOS-based PWM/VFM step-down DC/ DC converters with synchronous rectifier featuring 2A*1 output current. Internally, a single IC consists of an oscillator, a reference voltage unit, an error amplifier, a switching control circuit, a mode control circuit, a soft start circuit, a latch protection circuit, an under-voltage lockout (UVLO) circuit, a thermal shutdown circuit, and switching transistors. By simply using an inductor and capacitors as external components, without connecting any diode, a low ripple and high efficiency synchronous rectifier step-down DC/ DC converter can be easily configured. RP506K is available in DFN(PLP)2527-10 package which achieves high-density mounting on boards. RP506K is available in the fixed output voltage type (RP506Kxx1A/ B/ D/ E) which can be set by 0.1 V step and the output voltage accuracy is as high as ±1.5% or ±18mV, or the adjustable output voltage type (RP506K001C/ F) which can be set by using the external resistors. The oscillator frequency can be selected from 2.25MHz (RP506Kxx1A/ B/ C) or 1.2MHz (RP506K001C/ F). By inputting a signal to MODE pin, RP506K can choose PWM/VFM auto switching control or forced PWM control. In low output current, PWM/VFM auto switching control automatically switches from PWM mode to VFM mode in order to achieve high efficiency.

Frequently asked questions

What is the output voltage accuracy for the fixed type?

The output voltage accuracy is as high as +1.5% or +18mv.

Can the RP506K be configured without diodes?

Yes, it can be configured by simply using an inductor and capacitors without connecting any diode.

What happens if the output is short-circuited?

The latch protection circuit latches the built-in driver to the OFF state for a specified time.
