Operation
The RT8125C/D is suitable for low external component fairly constant over the entire input voltage range. Another

turned on at the beginning of each cycle. After the internal proportional to the output voltage and inversely proportional

converter's input and output voltages to keep the frequency generator.

Note 1. Stresses beyond those listed “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are
stress ratings only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in
the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions may
affect device reliability.
Note 2. θJA is measured at TA = 25°C on a high effective thermal conductivity four-layer test board per JEDEC 51-7. θJC is
measured at the exposed pad of the package.
Note 3. Devices are ESD sensitive. Handling precaution is recommended.
Note 4. The device is not guaranteed to function outside its operating conditions.
Note 5. The reference voltage shift -6mV from 0.8V for offset canceling under feedback valley control.
Note 6. No production tested. Test condition VIN = 8V, VOUT = 1.1V, IOUT = 10A using application circuit.

used to prevent crossover conduction for the high side

Delay Time freewheeling current and the forward voltage of the body
(36µs typ.) diode contribute to power loss. The RT8125C/D employs

without sacrificing efficiency. Furthermore, elaborate logic
circuit is implemented to prevent cross conduction.

The voltage on the FB pin is monitored for under voltage For high output current applications, two or more power

to restart until the UVP situation is removed. The RT8125C/D embeds high current gate drivers to obtain
high efficiency power conversion. The embedded drivers
contribute to the majority of the power dissipation of the
controller. Therefore, WDFN package is chosen for its
power dissipation rating. If no gate resistor is used, the
power dissipation of the controller can be approximately
calculated using the following equation :
