overview

1. Purpose

<p class="MsoNormal">The RT9055 is a dual channel, low noise, and low drop Regulator sourcing up to 300mA at each channel. Its input voltage range is from 1.5V to 5.5V and provides an adjustable regulated output voltage from 0.9V to 3.5V while delivering up to 0.3A of output current. This document explains the function and use of the RT9055 evaluation board (EVB), and provides information to enable operation, modification of the evaluation board and circuit to suit individual requirements.</p>

2. Introduction

<h3>General Product Information</h3> <p class="bady">The RT9055 is a dual channel, low noise, and low drop Regulator sourcing up to 300mA at each channel. The input voltage range is from 1.5V to 5.5V.</p> <p class="bady"> The RT9055 offers 2% accuracy, extremely low dropout voltage and extremely low quiescent current (only 29µA per LDO). The shutdown current is near zero which is suitable for battery powered applications. The RT9055 also provides protection function such as current limiting, output shot circuit protection, and over temperature protection.</p>

7. Power-up & Measurement Procedure

<p class="MsoListParagraph">1. Connect input power (1.5V < V_IN < 5.5V) and input ground to VIN and GND test pins respectively.</p> <p class="MsoListParagraph">2. To use a jumper at “H” option to tie EN test pin for enabling the device. Inversely, to use a jumper at “L” option to tie EN test pin and ground GND for disabling the device.</p> <p class="MsoListParagraph">3. Connect an external load up to 0.3A to the VOUT and GND terminals and verify the output voltage.</p>
