RT5070
Single Output LNB Supply and Control Voltage Regulator
General Description
The RT5070 is a highly integrated voltage regulator
and interface IC, specifically design for supplying
power and control signals from advanced satellite
set-top box (STB) modules to the LNB down-converter
in the antenna dish or to the multi-switch box.
The device is consists of the independent current-mode
boost controller and low dropout linear regulator for the
LNB power.
The RT5070 has fault protection (over-current,
over-temperature and under-voltage lockout).
The RT5070 are available in a SOP-8 (Exposed Pad)
package to achieve optimized solution for thermal
dissipation.

RT5070
Operation
The RT5070 integrates a current mode boost converter
and linear regulator. Use the SEL pin to control the
LNB voltage and the boost converter track is at least
greater 850mV than LNB voltage. The boost converter
is the high efficiency PWM architecture with 700kHz
operation frequency. The linear regulator has the
capability to source current up to 550mA during
continuous operation. All the loop compensation,
current sensing, and slope compensation functions are
provided internally.
OCP
Both the boost converter and the linear regulator have
independent current limit. In the boost converter
(OCP1), this is achieved through cycle-by-cycle
internal current limit (typ. 3A). In the linear regulator
(OCP2), when the linear regulator exceeds OCP more
than 48ms, the LNB output will be disabled and re-start
after 1.8s.
OTP
When the junction temperature reaches the critical
temperature (typically 150C), the boost converter and
the linear regulator are immediately disabled.
UVLO
The UVLO circuit compares the VIN with the UVLO
threshold (7.7V rising typically) to ensure that the input
voltage is high enough for reliable operation. The
350mV (typ.) hysteresis prevents supply transients
from causing a shutdown.
PWM Controller
The loop compensation, current sensing, and slope
compensation functions are provided internally.
