The R1245x series are CMOS-based Step-down DC/DC converter with internal N-channel high side Tr. The ON resistance of the built-in high-side transistor is 0.35Ω and the R1245 can provide the maximum 1.2A output current. Each of the ICs consists of an oscillator, a PWM control circuit, a voltage reference unit, an error amplifier, a phase compensation circuit, a slope compensation circuit, a soft-start circuit, protection circuits, an internal voltage regulator, and a switch for bootstrap circuit. The ICs can make up a step-down DC/DC converter with an inductor, resistors, a diode, and capacitors.

The R1245x series are current mode operating type DC/DC converters without an external current sense resistor, and realizes fast response and high efficiency. As an output capacitor, a ceramic type capacitor can be used with the R1245X series. The options of the internal oscillator frequency are preset at 330kHz for version A and B, 500kHz for version C and D, 1000kHz for version E and F, 2400kHz for version G and H.

As for protection, an Lx peak current limit circuit cycle by cycle, a thermal shutdown function and an under voltage lockout (UVLO) function are built in. Furthermore, there are two types for short protection, for A/C/E/G version, a latch protection function which makes the output latch off if the output voltage keeps lower than the set output voltage for a certain time after detecting current limit is built in, for B/D/F/H version, a fold-back protection function which changes the oscillator frequency slower after detecting short circuit or equivalent.

As for the packages of the R1245 series, HSOP-8E, DFN(PLP)2020-8, SOT23-6W are availabl
