RT8812A
Operation
The RT8812A is a 2/1 phase synchronous Buck PWM
controller with integrated drivers which are optimized for
high performance graphic microprocessor and computer
applications. The IC integrates a COT (Constant-On-Time)
PWM controller with two MOSFET drivers, as well as
output current monitoring and protection functions.
Referring to the function block diagram of TON Genx, the
synchronous UGATE driver is turned on at the beginning
of each cycle. After the internal one-shot timer expires,
the UGATE driver will be turned off. The pulse width of
this one-shot is determined by the converter's input voltage
and the output voltage to keep the frequency fairly constant
over the input voltage range and output voltage. Another
one-shot sets a minimum off-time.
The RT8812A also features a PWM-VID dynamic voltage
control circuit driven by the pulse width modulation
method. This circuit reduces the device pin count and
enables a wide dynamic voltage range.
Soft-Start (SS)
For internal soft-start function, an internal current source
charges an internal capacitor to build the soft-start ramp
voltage. The output voltage will track the internal ramp
voltage during soft-start interval. For external soft-start
function, an additional capacitor connected from SS pin
to the GND will be charged by a current source and
determines the soft-start time.
PGOOD
The power good output is an open drain architecture.

Current Balance
The RT8812A implements internal current balance
mechanism in the current loop. The RT8812A senses per
phase current and compares it with the average current. If
the sensed current of any particular phase is higher than
average current, the on-time of this phase will be adjusted
to be shorter.
Current Limit
The current limit circuit employs a unique “valley” current
sensing algorithm. If the magnitude of the current sense
signal at PHASE is above the current limit threshold, the
PWM is not allowed to initiate a new cycle. Thus, the
current to the load exceeds average output inductor
current, the output voltage falls and eventually crosses
the under voltage protection threshold, inducing IC
shutdown.
Over Voltage Protection (OVP) & Under Voltage
Protection (UVP)
The output voltage is continuously monitored for over
voltage and under voltage protection. When the output
voltage exceeds its set voltage threshold (If VREFIN ≤ 1.33V,
OV = 2V, or VREFIN > 1.33V, OV = 1.5 x VREFIN), UGATE
goes low and LGATE is forced high; when it is less than
40% of its set voltage, under voltage protection is triggered
and then both UGATE and LGATE gate drivers are forced
low. The controller is latched until PVCC is re-supplied
and exceeds the POR rising threshold voltage or EN is
reset.

When the soft-start is finished, the PGOOD open drain
output will be high impedance.

RT8812A
Application Information
The RT8812A is a dual-phase synchronous Buck PWM
controller with integrated drivers which is optimized for
high performance graphic microprocessor and computer
applications. A COT (Constant-On-Time) PWM controller
and two MOSFET drivers with internal bootstrap diodes
are integrated so that the external circuit can be easily
designed and the number of component is reduced.
The topology solves the poor load transient response timing
problems of fixed-frequency mode PWM and avoids the
problems caused by widely varying switching frequencies
in conventional constant on-time and constant off-time
PWM schemes.
The IC supports dynamic mode transition function with
various operating states, which include dual-phase with
CCM operation and single phase with diode emulation
mode. These different operating states make the system
efficiency as high as possible.
The RT8812A provides a PWM-VID dynamic control
operation in which the feedback voltage is regulated and
tracks external input reference voltage. It also features
complete fault protection functions including over voltage,
under voltage and current limit.
Remote Sense
The RT8812A uses the remote sense path (VSNS and
RGND) to overcome voltage drops in the power lines by
sensing the voltage directly at the end of GPU. Normally,
to protect remote sense path disconnecting, there are
two resistors (RLocal) connecting between local sense path
and remote sense path. That is, in application with remote
sense, the RLocal is recommended to be 10Ω to 100Ω. If
no need of remote sense, the RLocal is recommended to
be 0Ω.

The RT8812A integrates a Constant-On-Time (COT) PWM
controller, and the controller provides the PWM signal
which relies on the output ripple voltage comparing with
internal reference voltage as shown in Figure 4. Referring
to the function block diagram of TON Genx, the
synchronous UGATE driver is turned on at the beginning
of each cycle. After the internal one-shot timer expires,
the UGATE driver will be turned off. The pulse width of
this one-shot is determined by the converter's input voltage
and the output voltage to keep the frequency fairly constant
over the input voltage and output voltage range. Another
one-shot sets a minimum off-time.

On-Time Control
The on-time one-shot comparator has two inputs. One
input monitors the output voltage, while the other input
samples the input voltage and converts it to a current.
This input voltage proportional current is used to charge
an internal on-time capacitor. The on-time is the time
required for the voltage on this capacitor to charge from
zero volts to VOUT, thereby making the on-time of the
high side switch directly proportional to output voltage
and inversely proportional to input voltage. The
implementation results in a nearly constant switching
frequency without the need for a clock generator.

reduces switching frequency at light-load conditions to
maintain high efficiency. As the output current decreases
from heavy-load condition, the inductor current is also
reduced, and eventually comes to the point that its valley
touches zero current, which is the boundary between
continuous conduction and discontinuous conduction
modes. By emulating the behavior of diodes, the low side
MOSFET allows only partial of negative current when the
inductor freewheeling current reaches negative value. As
the load current is further decreased, it takes a longer
time to discharge the output capacitor to the level that
requires the next “ON” cycle. In reverse, when the output
current increases from light load to heavy load, the
switching frequency increases to the preset value as the
inductor current reaches the continuous conduction
condition. The transition load point to the light load
operation is shown in Figure 6 and can be calculated as
follows :

where tON is on-time.

Mode Selection
The RT8812A can operate into 2 phases with force CCM,
1 phase with force CCM, and 1 phase with DEM according
to PSI voltage setting. If PSI voltage is pulled below 0.8V,
the controller will operate into 1 phase with DEM. In DEM
operation, the RT8812A automatically reduces the
operation frequency at light load conditions for saving power
loss. If PSI voltage is pulled between 1.2V to 1.8V, the
controller will switch operation into 1 phase with force
CCM. If PSI voltage is pulled between 2.4V to 5.5V, the
controller will switch operation into 2 phase with force
CCM. The operation mode is summarized in Table 1.
Moreover, the PSI pin is valid after POR of VR.

The switching waveforms may be noisy and asynchronous
in light loading diode-emulation operation condition, but
this is a normal operating condition that results in high
light-load efficiency. Trade-off in DEM noise vs. light-load
efficiency is made by varying the inductor value. Generally,
low inductor values produce a broad high efficiency range
vs. load curve, while higher values result in higher full load
efficiency (assuming that the coil resistance remains fixed)
and less output voltage ripple. The disadvantages for using
higher inductor values include larger physical size and
degraded load-transient response (especially at low input
voltage levels).

Forced-CCM Mode
The low noise, forced-CCM mode disables the zerocrossing comparator, which controls the low side switch
on-time. This causes the low side gate drive waveform to
be the complement of the high side gate drive waveform.
This in turn causes the inductor current to reverse at light
loads as the PWM loop to maintain a duty ratio VOUT/VIN.
The benefit of forced-CCM mode is to keep the switching
frequency fairly constant.

The soft-start process is finished until both the internal
SSOK and external SSOK go high and protection is not

Enable and Disable
The EN pin is a high impedance input that allows power
sequencing between the controller bias voltage and another
voltage rail. The RT8812A remains in shutdown if the EN
pin is lower than 800mV. When the EN voltage rises above
the 1.6V high level threshold, the RT8812A will begin a
new initialization and soft-start cycle.
Power On Reset (POR), UVLO
Power On Reset (POR) occurs when VPVCC rises above
to approximately 4.1V (typical), the RT8812A will reset
the fault latch circuit and prepare for PWM operation. When
the VPVCC is lower than 3.8V (typical), the Under Voltage
Lockout (UVLO) circuitry inhibits switching by keeping
UGATE and LGATE low.
Soft-Start
The RT8812A provides both internal soft-start function and
external soft-start function. The soft-start function is used
to prevent large inrush current and output voltage overshoot
while the converter is being powered up. The soft-start
function automatically begins once the chip is enabled.
There is a delay time around 1.1ms from EN goes high to

The RT8812A also provides an external soft-start function,
and the external soft-start sequence is shown in Figure

is charged by a 5μA current source to build a soft-start
voltage ramp. If the external soft-start function is chosen,
the external soft-start time should be set longer than
internal soft-start time to avoid output voltage tracking the
internal soft-start ramp. The recommend external soft-start
slew rate is from 0.1V/ms to 0.4V/ms.

If the external capacitor between the SS pin and ground is
removed, the internal soft-start function will be chosen.
An internal current source charges the internal soft-start
capacitor so that the internal soft-start voltage ramps up
linearly The output voltage will track the internal soft-start
voltage during the soft-start interval. After the internal softstart voltage exceeds the REFIN voltage, the output voltage
no longer tracks the internal soft-start voltage but follows

In RT8812A, the VREFIN slew rate is proportional to PWM

In normal mode, the VREFIN slew rate SR can be estimated
by CREFADJ or CREFIN as the following equation :

Current limit threshold can be set by a resistor (ROCSET)
between LGATE1 and GND. Once PVCC exceeds the
POR threshold and chip is enabled, an internal current

Current Limit
The RT8812A provides cycle-by-cycle current limit control
by detecting the PHASE voltage drop across the low side
MOSFET when it is turned on. The current limit circuit
employs a unique “valley” current sensing algorithm as
shown in Figure 13. If the magnitude of the current sense
signal at PHASE is above the current limit threshold, the
PWM is not allowed to initiate a new cycle.
In order to provide both good accuracy and a cost effective
solution, the RT8812A supports temperature compensated
MOSFET RDS(ON) sensing.

Figure 13. “Valley” Current Limit
In an over current condition, the current to the load exceeds
the average output inductor current. Thus, the output
voltage falls and eventually crosses the under voltage
protection threshold, inducing IC shutdown.

DS8812A-04 November 2013

ROCSET can be determined using the following equation :

IVALLEY  RLGATEDS(ON)   40mV
IOCSET

where IVALLEY represents the desired inductor limit current
(valley inductor current) and IOCSET is current limit setting
current which has a temperature coefficient to compensate
the temperature dependency of the RDS(ON).
If ROCSET is not present, there is no current path for IOCSET
to build the current limit threshold. In this situation, the
current limit threshold is internally preset to 400mV.
Negative Current Limit
The RT8812A supports cycle-by-cycle negative current
limiting. The absolute value of negative current limit
threshold is the same with the positive current limit
threshold. If negative inductor current is rising to trigger
negative current limit, the low side MOSFET will be turned
off and the current will flow to input side through the body
diode of the high side MOSFET. At this time, output voltage
tends to rise because this protection limits current to
discharge the output capacitor. In order to prevent shutdown
because of over voltage protection, the low side MOSFET
is turned on again 400ns after it is turned off. If the device
hits the negative over current threshold again before output
voltage is discharged to the target level, the low side
MOSFET is turned off and process repeats. It ensures
maximum allowable discharge capability when output
voltage continues to rise. On the other hand, if the output
is discharged to the target level before negative current
threshold is reached, the low side MOSFET is turned off,
the high side MOSFET is then turned on, and the device
keeps normal operation.

RT8812A
Current Balance
The RT8812A implements current balance mechanism in
the current loop. The RT8812A senses per phase current
signal and compares it with the average current. If the
sensed current of any particular phase is higher than the
average current, the on-time of this phase will be
decreased.
The current balance accuracy is major related with onresistance of low side MOSFET (RLG,DS(ON)). That is, in
practical application, using lower RLG,DS(ON) will reduce
the current balance accuracy.
Output Over Voltage Protection (OVP)
The output voltage can be continuously monitored for over
voltage protection. If REFIN voltage is lower than 1.33V,
the over voltage threshold follows to absolute over voltage
2V. If REFIN voltage is higher than 1.33V, the over voltage
threshold follows relative over voltage 1.5 x VREFIN. When
OVP is triggered, UGATE goes low and LGATE is forced
high. The RT8812A is latched once OVP is triggered and
can only be released by PVCC or EN power on reset. A
5μs delay is used in OVP detection circuit to prevent false
trigger.
Output Under Voltage Protection (UVP)
The output voltage can be continuously monitored for under
voltage protection. When the output voltage is less than
40% of its set voltage, under voltage protection is triggered
and then all UGATE and LGATE gate drivers are forced
low. There is a 3μs delay built in the UVP circuit to prevent
false transitions. During soft-start, the UVP blanking time
is equal to PGOOD blanking time.
MOSFET Gate Driver
The RT8812A integrates high current gate drivers for the
MOSFETs to obtain high efficiency power conversion in
synchronous Buck topology. A dead-time is used to prevent
the crossover conduction for high side and low side
MOSFETs. Because both the two gate signals are off
during the dead-time, the inductor current freewheels
through the body diode of the low side MOSFET. The
freewheeling current and the forward voltage of the body
diode contribute power losses to the converter. The

18

RT8812A employs adaptive dead time control scheme to
ensure safe operation without sacrificing efficiency.
Furthermore, elaborate logic circuit is implemented to
prevent cross conduction. For high output current
applications, two power MOSFETs are usually paralleled
to reduce RDS(ON). The gate driver needs to provide more
current to switch on/off these paralleled MOSFETs. Gate
driver with lower source/sink current capability results in
longer rising/falling time in gate signals and higher
switching loss. The RT8812A embeds high current gate
drivers to obtain high efficiency power conversion.
Inductor Selection
Inductor plays an importance role in step-down converters
because the energy from the input power rail is stored in
it and then released to the load. From the viewpoint of
efficiency, the DC Resistance (DCR) of inductor should
be as small as possible to minimize the copper loss. In
additional, the inductor occupies most of the board space
so the size of it is important. Low profile inductors can
save board space especially when the height is limited.
However, low DCR and low profile inductors are usually
not cost effective.
Additionally, higher inductance results in lower ripple
current, which means the lower power loss. However, the
inductor current rising time increases with inductance value.
This means the transient response will be slower. Therefore,
the inductor design is a trade-off between performance,
size and cost.
In general, inductance is designed to let the ripple current
ranges between 20% to 40% of full load current. The
inductance can be calculated using the following equation :
Lmin =

VIN  VOUT
V
 OUT
fSW  k  IOUT_rated
VIN

where k is the ratio between inductor ripple current and
rated output current.
Input Capacitor Selection
Voltage rating and current rating are the key parameters
in selecting input capacitor. Generally, input capacitor has
a voltage rating 1.5 times greater than the maximum input
voltage is a conservatively safe design.

The next step is to select proper capacitor for RMS current
rating. Use more than one capacitor with low Equivalent
Series Resistance (ESR) in parallel to form a capacitor
bank is a good design. Besides, placing ceramic capacitor
close to the drain of the high side MOSFET is helpful in
reducing the input voltage ripple at heavy load.
Output Capacitor Selection
The output filter capacitor must have ESR low enough to
meet output ripple and load transient requirement, yet have
high enough ESR to satisfy stability requirements. Also,
the capacitance must be high enough to absorb the inductor
energy going from a full load to no load condition without
tripping the OVP circuit. Organic semiconductor
capacitor(s) or special polymer capacitor(s) are
recommended.
MOSFET Selection
The majority of power loss in the step-down power
conversion is due to the loss in the power MOSFETs. For
low voltage high current applications, the duty cycle of
the high side MOSFET is small. Therefore, the switching
loss of the high side MOSFET is of concern. Power
MOSFETs with lower total gate charge are preferred in
such kind of application.
However, the small duty cycle means the low side MOSFET
is on for most of the switching cycle. Therefore, the
conduction loss tends to dominate the total power loss of
the converter. To improve the overall efficiency, the
MOSFETs with low RDS(ON) are preferred in the circuit
design. In some cases, more than one MOSFET are
connected in parallel to further decrease the on-state
resistance. However, this depends on the low side
MOSFET driver capability and the budget.

Thermal Considerations
For continuous operation, do not exceed absolute
maximum junction temperature. The maximum power
dissipation depends on the thermal resistance of the IC
package, PCB layout, rate of surrounding airflow, and
difference between junction and ambient temperature. The
maximum power dissipation can be calculated by the
following formula :
PD(MAX) = (TJ(MAX) − TA) / θJA
where TJ(MAX) is the maximum junction temperature, TA is
the ambient temperature, and θJA is the junction to ambient
thermal resistance.
For recommended operating condition specifications, the
maximum junction temperature is 125°C. The junction to
ambient thermal resistance, θJA, is layout dependent. For
WQFN-20L 3x3 package, the thermal resistance, θJA, is
30°C/W on a standard JEDEC 51-7 four-layer thermal test
board. The maximum power dissipation at TA = 25°C can
be calculated by the following formula :
P D(MAX) = (125°C − 25°C) / (30°C/W) = 3.33W for
WQFN-20L 3x3 package
The maximum power dissipation depends on the operating
ambient temperature for fixed T J(MAX) and thermal
resistance, θJA. The derating curve in Figure 14 allows
the designer to see the effect of rising ambient temperature
on the maximum power dissipation.

Layout is very important in high frequency switching
converter design. If designed improperly, the PCB could
radiate excessive noise and contribute to the converter
instability. Following layout guidelines must be considered
before starting a layout for RT8812A.


Place the RC filter as close as possible to the PVCC
pin.



Keep current limit setting network as close as possible
to the IC. Routing of the network should avoid coupling
to high voltage switching node.



Connections from the drivers to the respective gate of
the high side or the low side MOSFET should be as
short as possible to reduce stray inductance.



All sensitive analog traces and components such as
VSNS, RGND, EN, PSI, VID, PGOOD, VREF, TON
VREFADJ, VREFIN and TSNS should be placed away
from high voltage switching nodes such as PHASE,
LGATE, UGATE, or BOOT nodes to avoid coupling. Use
internal layer(s) as ground plane(s) and shield the
feedback trace from power traces and components.



Power sections should connect directly to ground
plane(s) using multiple vias as required for current
handling (including the chip power ground connections).
Power components should be placed to minimize loops
and reduce losses.
