General Description
The RT8026 is a high-efficiency Pulse-Width-Modulated (PWM) step-down DC/DC converter. Capable of delivering 1A output current over a wide input voltage range from 2.7V to 5.5V, the RT8026 is ideally suited for portable electronic devices that are powered from 1-cell Li-ion battery or from other power sources such as cellular phones, PDAs and hand-held devices.
Two operating modes are available including : PWM/Low Dropout autoswitch and shut-down modes. The Internal synchronous rectifier with low RDS(ON) dramatically reduces conduction loss at PWM mode. No external Schottky diode is required in practical application.
