OUTLINE
The RN5RKxx1A/xx1B/xx2A Series are CMOS-based VFM (Chopper) Step-up DC/DC converter ICs with ultra low supply current and high output voltage accuracy.
Each of the RN5RKxx1A/xx1B consists of an oscillator, a VFM control circuit, a driver
transistor to have low ON resistance (Lx switch), a reference voltage unit, a high speed comparator, resistors for voltage detection, an Lx switch protection circuit and an internal chip enable circuit. A low ripple, high efficiency step-up DC/DC converter can be composed of this RN5RKxx1A/xx1B with only three external components: an inductor, a diode and a capacitor.
The RN5RKxx2A uses the same chip as what is employed in the RN5RKxx1A/1B IC and has a drive pin (EXT) for an external
transistor instead of an Lx pin. As it is possible to load a large output current with a power
transistor which has a low saturation voltage, RN5RKxx2A IC is recommendable to users who need an output curr...
