Richtek provides a recommended PCB layout in their application note ANI-45, which includes guidelines for thermal vias, copper pours, and component placement to minimize thermal resistance and ensure reliable operation.
The output capacitor selection depends on the specific application requirements. Richtek recommends using a low-ESR capacitor with a value between 10uF to 22uF, and a voltage rating of at least 2x the output voltage. Additionally, the capacitor should be placed close to the IC to minimize parasitic inductance.
Although the datasheet specifies a maximum input voltage of 18V, Richtek recommends limiting the input voltage to 15V to ensure reliable operation and prevent damage to the internal components.
Richtek recommends using an external OVP circuit, such as a voltage supervisor IC, to detect overvoltage conditions and shut down the RT9259AGS. The OVP threshold should be set to around 1.5x the nominal input voltage.
Richtek recommends using a ceramic or film capacitor with a value between 1uF to 10uF, and a voltage rating of at least 2x the input voltage. The input capacitor should be placed close to the IC to minimize parasitic inductance.
