RT8259
Application Information
The RT8259 is a high voltage buck converter that can support
the input voltage range from 4.5V to 24V and the output
current can be up to 1.2A.
Output Voltage Setting
The resistive voltage divider allows the FB pin to sense a
fraction of the output voltage as shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1. Output Voltage Setting
For adjustable voltage mode, the output voltage is set by
an external resistive voltage divider according to the
following equation :
VOUT

Where VFB is the feedback reference voltage (0.8V typ.).
External Bootstrap Diode
Connect a 10nF low ESR ceramic capacitor between the
BOOT pin and SW pin. This capacitor provides the gate
driver voltage for the high side MOSFET.
It is recommended to add an external bootstrap diode
between an external 5V and the BOOT pin for efficiency
improvement when input voltage is lower than 5.5V or duty
ratio is higher than 65%. The bootstrap diode can be a low
cost one such as 1N4148 or BAT54.
The external 5V can be a 5V fixed input from system or a
5V output of the RT8259.

Inductor Selection
The inductor value and operating frequency determine the
ripple current according to a specific input and output
voltage. The ripple current ΔIL increases with higher VIN
and decreases with higher inductance.

⎡
⎢⎣

Having a lower ripple current reduces not only the ESR
losses in the output capacitors but also the output voltage
ripple. High frequency with small ripple current can achieve
highest efficiency operation. However, it requires a large
inductor to achieve this goal.
For the ripple current selection, the value of ΔIL = 0.4(IMAX)
will be a reasonable starting point. The largest ripple current
occurs at the highest VIN. To guarantee that the ripple
current stays below the specified maximum, the inductor
value should be chosen according to the following
equation :
L
=
⎡
⎢⎣

× ΔIL(MAX)

⎥⎦

Inductor Core Selection
The inductor type must be selected once the value for L is
known. Generally speaking, high efficiency converters can
not afford the core loss found in low cost powdered iron
cores. So, the more expensive ferrite or mollypermalloy
cores will be a better choice.
The selected inductance rather than the core size for a
fixed inductor value is the key for actual core loss. As the
inductance increases, core losses decrease. Unfortunately,
increase of the inductance requires more turns of wire and
therefore the copper losses will increase.
Ferrite designs are preferred at high switching frequency
due to the characteristics of very low core losses. So,
design goals can focus on the reduction of copper loss
and the saturation prevention.
Ferrite core material saturates “hard”, which means that
inductance collapses abruptly when the peak design current
is exceeded. The previous situation results in an abrupt
increase in inductor ripple current and consequent output
voltage ripple.
Do not allow the core to saturate!
