Preliminary
RT9226B
Synchronous PWM Step-down DC/DC Converter Controller
General Description
The RT9226B is a low cost, high-efficiency voltage-
mode PWM controller for motherboard power supply
application. Synchronous N-channel MOSFET driver,
short-circuit protection, and soft start function are
integrated in a single chip. A simple high power buck
regulator
with
shutdown
function
can
be
implemented with minimum external components.
The RT9226B provides current-limit protection by
monitoring the voltage drop across N-channel
MOSFET
in
over
current
condition,
therefore,
eliminates the current sensing resistor and minimizes
the efficiency loss. The soft start function reduces the
stress on power supply and components in power on
duration. The 200 kHz operating frequency and high
speed PWM control loop with Synchronous N-
channel
speed.

optimized
compromise between efficiency, cost, and response
features
include
voltage
monitoring for power good indication and over
voltage protection.
