The EVB_RT6255BHGJ8F is a high-efficiency, synchronous stepdown DC-DC converter that can deliver up to 5A output current from a 4.5V to 18V input supply. The RT6255B adopts Advanced Constant On-Time (ACOT™) control architecture to provide an ultrafast transient response with few external components and to operate in nearly constant switching frequency over line, load, and output voltage ranges. The RT6255B features cycle-by-cycle current limit protection against short-circuit outputs, and soft-start function to prevent inrush current during start-up. It also includes input under-voltage lockout, output under-voltage protection, and over-temperature protection (thermal shutdown) to provide safe and smooth operation in all operating conditions.
