RT9089A
DDR Termination Regulator
General Description
The RT9089A is a sink/source tracking termination
regulator. It is specifically designed for low-cost and low-
external component count systems. The RT9089A
possesses a high speed operating amplifier that provides
fast load transient response and only requires a minimum
10μF ceramic output capacitor. The RT9089A supports
remote sensing functions and all features required to power
the DDRI / DDRII / DDRIII and Low Power DDRIII / DDRIV
VTT bus termination according to the JEDEC
specification.
The RT9089A is available in the thermal efficient package,
WDFN-10L 2x2.

RT9089A
Operation
The RT9089A is a linear sink/source DDR termination
regulator with current capability up to 2A. The RT9089A
builds in a high-side N-MOSFET which provides current
sourcing and a low-side N-MOSFET which provides current
sinking. All the control circuits are supplied by the power
VCNTL. In normal operation, the error amplifier OP adjusts
the gate driving voltage of the power MOSFET to achieve
SENSE voltage well tracking the VDDQSNS/2 voltage.
Both the source and sink currents are detected by the
internal sensing resistor, and the OCP function will work
to limit the current to a designed value when overload
happens. Furthermore, the current will be folded back to
be one half if VOUT is out of the power good window.
Buffer
This function provides REFOUT output equal to
VDDQSNS/2 with 10mA source/sink current capability.
Control Logic
This block includes VCNTL UVLO, VDDQSNS UVLO and
Enable/Disable functions, and provides logic control to
the whole chip.
Power State Control
The input pins S3 and S5 of RT9089A, provide simple
control of the power state. Table 1 describes S3/S5
terminal logic state and corresponding state of REFOUT/
VOUT outputs. VOUT is turn-off and discharged to GND
in state S3. When both S5 and S3 pins are LOW, the
power state is set to S4/S5. In S4/S5 state, all the outputs
are turn-off and discharged to GND.
Thermal Protection
Both the high-side and low-side power MOSFETs will be
turned off when the junction temperature is higher than
typically 160°C, and be released to normal operation when
junction temperature falls below 120°C typically.
