R1240x Series
1.2 A, 30 V Step-Down DC/DC Converter
NO.EA-190-170609
OUTLINE
The R1240x is a CMOS-based Step-down DC/DC converter with internal Nch high side Tr. (0.35 Ω), which
can provide the maximum 1.2 A output current. The ICs consists of an Oscillator, a PWM control circuit, a
Reference Voltage unit, an Error amplifier, phase compensation circuits, a slope circuit, a soft-start circuit,
protection circuits, internal voltage regulators, and a switch for boot strap circuit. The ICs can make up a Step-
Down DC/DC Converter with the following external components: an inductor, resistors, a diode, and capacitors.
The R1240x is a current mode operating type DC/DC converter which does not require external current sense
resistor, and it works high speed response time, high efficiency and compatible with ceramic capacitors.
Oscillator frequency is internally set at 1.25 MHz.
As a protection function, it has cycle by cycle peak current limit function, short protection function, thermal
shutdown function and UVLO.
There are two types for short protection, A version has latch protection function with 2 ms delay time, and B
version has fold-back protection function that keep operating at short condition with lower operating frequency
and limiting the Lx current.

ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS
Electronic and mechanical stress momentarily exceeded absolute maximum ratings may cause the permanent
damages and may degrade the life time and safety for both device and system using the device in the field.
The functional operation at or over these absolute maximum ratings is not assured.

RECOMMENDED OPERATING CONDITIONS
All of electronic equipment should be designed that the mounted semiconductor devices operate within the
recommended operating conditions. The semiconductor devices cannot operate normally over the recommended
operating conditions, even if when they are used over such conditions by momentary electronic noise or surge. And
the semiconductor devices may receive serious damage when they continue to operate over the recommended
operating conditions.
