RT4803A 2.5MHz, Synchronous Boost Regulator with Bypass Mode Features General Description 4 Few External Components: 0.47 H Inductor The RT4803A allows systems to take advantage of and 0603 Case Size Input and Output Capacitors new battery chemistries that can supply significant Input Voltage Range: 1.8V to 5V energy when the battery voltage is lower than the Output Range from 2.85V to 4.4V required voltage for system power ICs. By combining VSEL = L 3.15V built-in power transistors, synchronous rectification, VSEL = H 3.4V and low supply current this IC provides a compact Maximum Continuous Load Current: 2A at V > IN solution for systems using advanced Li-Ion battery 2.65V Boosting V to 3.35V OUT chemistries. Up to 96% Efficient The RT4803A is a boost regulator designed to provide True Bypass Operation when V > Target V IN OUT a minimum output voltage from a single-cell Li-Ion Internal Synchronous Rectifier battery, even when the battery voltage is below system True Load Disconnect when Shut Down minimum. In boost mode, output voltage regulation is Forced Bypass Mode guaranteed to a maximum load current of 2A. V Control to Optimize Target V SEL OUT Quiescent current in Shutdown Mode is less than 1 A, Short-Circuit Protection which maximizes battery life. The regulator transitions 2 I C Controlled Interface smoothly between Bypass and normal Boost Mode. Ultra low Operating Quiescent Current The device can be forced into Bypass Mode to reduce Small WL-CSP 16B Package quiescent current. Discharge Function The RT4803A is available in the WL-CSP-16B 1.67x1.67 (BSC) package.
