RP515x Series
Ultra-low Power Consumption 300 mA Buck DC/DC Converter
with Battery Monitor
No.EA-505-190328
OVERVIEW
The RP515x is a buck DC/DC converter with a Battery Monitor (BM) featuring ultra-low current and low-
voltage resistance. The battery monitor divides the input voltage (V
IN
) into 1/3 or 1/4, and directly provides
the MCU’s built-in low voltage AD converter with buffered voltage without external circuits.
KEY BENEFITS
●
●
●
●
Ultra-low consumption current (I
Q
:0.3 μA ) with the VFM control for DC/DC
(switching frequency: 1 MHz max.)
High efficiency under light load conditions
Reducing components and space by combining DC/DC and BM into a single chip
Suitable for coin batteries and USB ports due to its wide input voltage range from 1.8 V to 5.5 V

Auto-discharge function quickly lowers the output voltage to 0 V by releasing the electrical charge accumulated in the
external capacitor, when the chip enable signal is switched from the active mode to the standby mode.
