RT8809A/B
Multi-Phase PWM Controller for GPU Core Power Supply
General Description
The RT8809A/B is a dual-phase synchronous buck PWM
controller with integrated drivers which are optimized for
high performance graphic microprocessor and computer
applications. The IC integrates a G-NAVP TM PWM
controller, two 12V MOSFET drivers with internal bootstrap
diodes, as well as output current monitoring and protection
functions into the WQFN-24L 4x4 package. The
RT8809A/B adopts DCR and RDS(ON) current sensing. Load
line voltage positioning (droop) and over current protection
are accomplished through continuous inductor DCR current
sensing, while RDS(ON) current sensing is used for accurate
channel current balance. Using both methods of current
sampling utilizes the best advantages of each technique.
The RT8809A/B also features a one-bit VID control
operation in which the feedback voltage is regulated and
tracks external input reference voltage. Other features
include, adjustable operating frequency, external
compensation, and enable/shutdown functions.

RT8809A/B
Application Information
RT8809A/B is a dual-phase synchronous buck PWM
controller with integrated drivers which is optimized for highperformance graphic microprocessor and computer
applications. A COT (Constant-On-Time) PWM controller
and two 12V MOSFET drivers with internal bootstrap diodes
are integrated so that the external circuit is easily designed
and the component count is reduced.
RT8809A/B adopts G-NAVPTM (Green-Native Adaptive
Voltage Positioning), which is Richtek's proprietary
topology derived from finite DC gain compensator with
current mode control for RT8809A, the load line can be
easily programmed by setting the DC gain of the error
amplifier for RT8809B, the load line is fixed to zero.
RT8809A/B also adopts lossless DCR and RDS(ON) current
sensing. Voltage positioning (only for RT8809A), dynamic
phase control and current limit are accomplished through
continuous inductor DCR current sensing, while RDS(ON)
current sensing is used for accurate channel current
balance.
RT8809A/B supports dynamic mode transition function with
various operating states, which include dual-phase, single
phase, diode emulation and audio skipping modes. These
different operating states make the system efficiency as
high as possible.
RT8809A/B provides a one-bit VID 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.
DEM/ASM Mode Selection
DEM (Diode Emulation Mode) and ASM (Audio Skipping
Mode) operation can be enabled by driving the tri-state
EN/MSEL pin to a logic high level. The RT8809A/B can
switch operation into DEM when EN/MSEL pin is pulled
up to above 4.2V. In DEM operation, RT8809A/B
automatically reduces the operation frequency at light load
conditions for saving power loss. If EN/MSEL is pulled
between 1.2V to 3V, the controller will switch operation
into ASM. In ASM operation, the minimum switching
frequency is limited to 30 kHz to avoid the acoustic noise.
Finally, if the pin is pulled to GND the RT8809A/B will
shutdown.
DS8809A/B-02 July 2011
Power On Reset
The POR (power on reset) circuit monitors the supply
voltage of the controller (VCC). When VCC exceeds the
POR rising threshold, the controller will be enable. During
soft-star period, the output voltage will first boot to around
1V, and then change to the set level when using RT8809A.
For RT8809B, output voltage will directly ramp to the set
level. If VCC falls below the POR falling threshold during
normal operation, all MOSFETs stop switching and the
controller resets. The POR rising and falling threshold has
a hysteresis to prevent noise mis-trigger.
Soft-Start
RT8809A/B provides soft-start function. The soft-start
function is used to prevent large inrush current while
converter is being powered-up. An internal current source
charges the internal soft-start capacitor such that the
internal soft-start voltage ramps up in a monotone to a
VBOOT voltage RT8809A or the set level (RT8809B). The
FB voltage will track the internal soft-start voltage during
soft-start interval. Therefore, the duty cycle of the UGATE
signal at power up as well as the input current limited.
During the soft-start period, the controller will be in dualphase operation by default to ensure enough charge during
start-up.
One-Bit VID and Dynamic Output Voltage Control
The output voltage is determined by the applied voltage on
the VSET pin. RT8809A/B generates a 2V reference voltage
from VREF to VRTN. As shown in Figure 1, connecting a
resistor divider from the VREF pin to the VSET pin can set
the output voltage according to below calculation :
VOUT = 2V × ⎛ R2 ⎞
⎜
⎟
⎝ R1 + R2 ⎠
RT8809A/B also features a one-bit VID control through an
internal N-MOSFET also shown in Figure 1. By connect a
resistor (R3) from RSET pin to VSET pin, the output voltage
can be switched between two levels by controlling the VID
pin. When the VID pin is logic high, the internal N-MOSFET
turns on to set the output voltage to a lower level. The
output voltage can be calculated as below :
⎡ (R2//R3) ⎤
VOUT = 2V × ⎢
⎥
⎣ R1 + (R2//R3) ⎦

In RT8809A, the dynamic VID slew rate is fixed to 10mV/

CVSET as shown in Figure 1. That is, assume the ΔVOUT =
300mV, R1=11kΩ, R2 = R3 = 27kΩ, the desired slew

Switching frequency is a trade-off between efficiency and
converter size. Higher operation frequency allows the use
of smaller components. This is common in ultra portable
devices where the load currents are lower and the controller
is powered from a lower voltage supply. On the other, lower
frequency operation offers higher overall efficiency at the
expense of component size and board space. Figure 2

Current Sense Setting (with Temperature
Compensation)
The RT8809A/B uses continuous inductor current sensing
to make the controller less noise sensitive. Low offset
amplifiers are used for loop control and over current
detection. The CSP and CSN denote the positive and
negative input of the current sense amplifier of any phase.
Since the DCR of the inductor is temperature dependent,
it affects the down phase threshold, OCP threshold and

The RT8809A/B adopts Richtek's proprietary G-NAVPTM

mode with CCRCOT (Constant Current Ripple Constant

voltage will decrease with increasing output load current.
For RT8809B, the output voltage is independent with output
load current. The control loop consists of PWM modulators
with power stages, current sense amplifiers and an error
amplifier as shown in Figure 5.

RT8809A/B
Similar to the peak current mode control with finite
compensator gain, the HS_FET on-time is determined by
the CCRCOT ON-Time generator. When the load current
increases, VCS increases, the steady state COMP voltage
also increases and VOUT decreases, achieving Active
Voltage Positioning (AVP). RT8809A/B internally cancels
the inherent output offset of the finite gain peak current
mode controller.
to determine the resistive feedback components of the
error amplifier gain, C1 and C2 must be calculated for the
compensation. The target is to achieve the constant
resistive output impedance over the widest possible
frequency range. The pole frequency, fP, of the compensator
must be set to compensate the output capacitor ESR

fP =

2π × RC × C
Droop Setting
where C is the capacitance of the output capacitor, and
RC is the ESR of output capacitor. C2 can be calculated
as follows :
Due to the native droop characteristics, the Active Voltage
Positioning (AVP) can be conveniently achieved by
properly setting the error amplifier gain. The target is to
have
VOUT = VREF − ILOAD x RLL
(6)
Then solving the switching condition VCOMP2 = VCS in
Figure 5 yields the desired error amplifier gain as
5 × DCR
R2 = 2
AV =

where RLL is the equivalent load line resistance as well as
the desired static output impedance. For a given R1, the
design is to get R2 according to (7). And the R2 should
be greater than 1.4kΩ.

The RT8809A/B controls the operation phase number

where ISUM is the sum of the inductor valley current. For
example, if DCR is 0.74mΩ, and the desired up phase
threshold is 15A, the value of RPS will be
−3
RPS = 0.74 × 10 × 15 × 5 = 55.5kΩ

Once the total inductor valley current is higher than the
threshold, the controller will transit to dual-phase operation.
when the total current becomes lower than the setting
threshold minus around 5A hysteresis, the active phase
number will return to single phase. If the PS pin is set
floating, the controller will force to dual-phase operation.

The RT8809A/B monitors the output voltage via the CSN
pin for Over Voltage Protection (OVP). Once the output
voltage exceeds the OVP threshold, OVP is triggered.
The RT8809A/B will try to turn on low side MOSFETs and
turn off high side MOSFETs to protect the load until the
OVP situation is removed. A 4μs delay is used in the
OVP detection circuit to prevent false trigger.
Under Voltage Protection
Figure 7. Dynamic Phase Number Control Circuit
Current Balance
The RT8809A/B implements internal current balance
mechanism in the current loop. The RT8809A/B senses
per phase current signal 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 Setting
The RT8809A/B includes a built-in builds-in current limit
protection function. Figure 8 shows the protection circuit.
The current limit threshold is programmable by an external
resistor, ROC, at the OCP pin. The value of ROC can be
set according to the following formula :
DCR × ISUM × 6
ROC =
8μ
where ISUM is the desired current limit threshold. Once
the sensed total current exceeds the current limit
threshold, the driver will be forced to turn off UGATE until
the OCP situation is removed.
The voltage on CSN pin is also monitored for under voltage
protection. If the output voltage is lower than the UVP
threshold, UVP will be triggered. The RT8809A/B will then
turn off both high side and low side MOSFETs. When
UVP is triggered, The RT8809A/B will enter hiccup mode
and continuously try to restart until the UVP situation is
cleared.
Inductor Selection
The switching frequency and ripple current determine the
inductor value as follows :
L(MIN) =
VIN − VOUT
× TON
IRIPPLE(MAX)
where TON is the UGATE turn on period.
Higher inductance results in achieves lower ripple current
and hence in higher efficiency but with a slower load
transient response as a, trade off. Thus, a need for more
output capacitors may be required, driving the cost up.
Find a low loss inductor having the lowest possible DC
resistance that fits in the allotted dimensions. The core
must be large enough not to be saturated at the peak
inductor current.

Output capacitors are used to maintain high performance
for the output beyond the bandwidth of the converter itself.
Two different kinds of output capacitors can be found, bulk
capacitors closely located to the inductors and ceramic
output capacitors in close proximity to the load. Latter
ones are for mid frequency decoupling with especially
small ESR and ESL values while the bulk capacitors have
to provide enough stored energy to overcome the lowfrequency bandwidth gap between the regulator and the

Thermal Considerations
Layout 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 :
Careful PC board layout is critical to achieving low
switching losses and clean, stable operation. The
switching power stage requires particular attention. If
possible, mount all of the power components on the top
side of the board with their ground terminals flushed
against one another. Follow these guidelines for optimum
PC board layout :
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 of the
RT8809A/B, the maximum junction temperature is 125°C
and TA is the ambient temperature. The junction to ambient
thermal resistance, θJA, is layout dependent. For WQFN24L 4x4 package, the thermal resistance, θJA, is 52°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 :
PD(MAX) = (125°C − 25°C) / (52°C/W) = 1.923W for
WQFN-24L 4x4 package
The maximum power dissipation depends on the operating
ambient temperature for fixed T J(MAX) and thermal
resistance, θJA. For the RT8809A/B package, the derating
curve in Figure 9 allows the designer to see the effect of
rising ambient temperature on the maximum power
dissipation.
Maximum Power Dissipation (W)

Keep the high current paths short, especially at the
ground terminals.
Keep the power traces and load connections short. This
is essential for high efficiency.
When trade-offs in trace lengths must be made, it’s
preferable to allow the inductor charging path to be made
longer than the discharging path.
Place the current sense components close to the
controller. CSP and CSN connections for current limit
and voltage positioning must be made using Kelvin sense
connections to guarantee the current sense accuracy.
The PCB trace from the sense nodes should be
paralleled back to the controller.
Route high speed switching nodes away from sensitive
analog areas (COMP, FB, CSP, CSN, etc...)
