R1200 series are CMOS-based control type step-up DC/DC converter with low supply current ICs. Each of these ICs consists of a Nch MOSFET, NPN transistor, an oscillator, PWM comparator, a voltage reference unit, an error amplifier, a current limit circuit, an under voltage lockout circuit (UVLO), an over voltage protection circuit (OVP), a soft start circuit, and so on. As the external components, an inductor, resistances or capacitors are necessary to make a constant output voltage of step-up DC/DC converter with the R1200. At standby mode, the NPN transistor can separate the output from the input. During the situation of that, there are two versions. R1200xxxA: the output of VOUT is generated to 0V by the low resistance (with the auto-discharge function). R1200xxxxB does not generate the output of VOUT (without the auto-discharge function).

The soft-start time (Typ.1.5ms) and the maximum duty cycle (Typ.91%) are set internally. For the protection functions of R1200 series are the current limit function of the LX peak current, the OVP function for detection the over voltage of output and the UVLO function for protective miss-operation by the low voltage. (The threshold of OVP is selectable from 17V, 19V, 21V or 23V)

The package are SOT-23-6 (standard type) and DFN(PLP)1820-6(tiny type)
