Product details
Overview
RTKA211803DE0000BU from Renesas Electronics is a 300mA, ultra-low-quiescent-current (5.5µA at 80V no-load switching) buck regulator in TSOT23-5 package, delivering fixed 3.3V output across 7–80V input. It integrates high-side MOSFET, supports pre-biased startup, and provides OVP, UVLO, OTP, and overcurrent protection. Used in industrial I/O supplies and e-bike auxiliary power rails.
For engineers reviewing the RTKA211803DE0000BU datasheet, RTKA211803DE0000BU pinout, RTKA211803DE0000BU application, or RTKA211803DE0000BU equivalent, key selection criteria include its 75ns minimum on-time, variable-frequency operation via external inductor (10–33µH), EN threshold accuracy (2.55V typ), and guaranteed operation from –40°C to +125°C junction temperature.
Technical Context
The RTKA211803DE0000BU operates in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) using valley-based voltage-mode control with fixed peak current limit (750mA typ) and zero-current detection. Its switching frequency varies with load, inductor value, and input voltage-e.g., ~170kHz max with 33µH at full load.
It features integrated thermal shutdown (160°C trip, 20°C hysteresis), accurate enable threshold (2.55V ±0.11V), and VIN UVLO (6.5V rising, 550mV hysteresis). The device sustains operation without external compensation and supports monotonic, glitch-free startup into pre-biased outputs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 7V to 80V - enables direct replacement of wide-input LDOs in 12V/24V/48V industrial systems without external step-down stages. |
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3V ±3.6% - tightly regulated for MCU core/logic supply without external feedback resistors. |
| Max Output Current | 300mA - sufficient for powering microcontrollers, sensors, and interface ICs in embedded nodes. |
| Quiescent Current | 5.5µA at 80V, no load, switching - extends battery life in always-on e-bike or IoT edge devices. |
| Min On-Time | 75ns - supports high VIN-to-VOUT ratios (e.g., 80V→3.3V) while maintaining stable regulation at light loads. |
| Protection Features | VIN UVLO, VOUT OVP (3.63V), OTP (160°C), OC limit (750mA) - eliminates need for discrete protection circuitry in harsh environments. |
| Package | TSOT23-5 (2.9mm × 1.63mm) - surface-mount footprint compatible with automated assembly and space-constrained PCBs. |
Pinout & Package
RTKA211803DE0000BU is housed in a thermally enhanced TSOT23-5 package (2.9mm × 1.63mm, 0.95mm height), optimized for high-voltage isolation and low thermal resistance (θJA = 85°C/W on evaluation board).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VOUT (Pin 1) | Regulated output & internal bias rail | Supplies internal circuitry after startup; connects directly to output capacitor; must be decoupled per layout guidelines. |
| GND (Pin 2) | Power and signal reference ground | Low-impedance return path for SW node current and internal logic; requires solid copper pour under package. |
| EN (Pin 3) | Enable control input | High-voltage tolerant (up to VIN+0.3V); 2.55V threshold allows direct connection to VIN or logic-level signals; hysteresis prevents chatter. |
| VIN (Pin 4) | Main power input | Connects to high-side MOSFET source; accepts 7–80V; UVLO ensures safe start-up only above 6.5V. |
| SW (Pin 5) | Switch node | Drain of integrated high-side MOSFET; connects to inductor and Schottky diode; requires short, low-inductance trace. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low IQ (5.5µA) | Enables >10-year battery life in maintenance-free industrial sensors powered from 24V batteries or energy harvesters. |
| Pre-biased output startup | Allows seamless integration into redundant power systems where multiple regulators share a common output bus without reverse current or voltage glitches. |
| Variable switching frequency | Automatically adjusts frequency with load and inductor value-eliminates need for external frequency programming components. |
| Monotonic soft-start | Guarantees controlled VOUT ramp (230–440µs depending on inductor/load), preventing inrush current damage to downstream capacitors and ICs. |
| Integrated protections | Reduces BOM count by embedding UVLO, OVP, OTP, and OC limit-no external comparators, timers, or sense resistors required. |
Applications
| Industrial I/O Power | E-Bike Auxiliary Supply |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| RTKA211805DE0000BU | Fixed 5V output; identical IQ, protections, and package; same pinout and layout compatibility. | Used where 5V logic or USB-peripheral interfaces require native 5V supply instead of 3.3V. | Select RTKA211805DE0000BU when system requires 5V output; otherwise retain RTKA211803DE0000BU for 3.3V MCU cores. |
| TPS63020DSJR | Buck-boost topology; 1.8–5.5V input; 3.3V/2A output; higher IQ (30µA); different pinout and control scheme. | Suitable for battery-powered systems with varying input (e.g., single Li-ion), but lacks 80V input capability. | Choose TPS63020DSJR only for sub-6V input applications; RTKA211803DE0000BU remains optimal for industrial 24V/48V/72V inputs. |
Compared with RTKA211805DE0000BU, the RTKA211803DE0000BU offers identical performance except for fixed 3.3V output-enabling drop-in substitution in 3.3V designs. Versus TPS63020DSJR, it delivers superior high-voltage resilience and lower IQ but lacks buck-boost flexibility, making it purpose-built for fixed-rail industrial conversion.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for RTKA211803DE0000BU?
The RTKA211803DE0000BU has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 84V, with recommended continuous operation up to 80V. This rating enables use in 48V and 72V industrial systems, including e-bike battery stacks and PoE++ infrastructure, while maintaining margin against load-dump transients.
Does RTKA211803DE0000BU require external feedback resistors to set output voltage?
No, RTKA211803DE0000BU does not require external feedback resistors. It integrates precision internal resistors to deliver a fixed 3.3V output with ±3.6% tolerance across temperature and line conditions-reducing component count and layout complexity versus adjustable regulators.
Can RTKA211803DE0000BU start up into a pre-biased output voltage?
Yes, RTKA211803DE0000BU supports pre-biased output startup. When enabled with existing voltage on VOUT, it enters a no-switching state until the output drops below the valley comparator threshold, then initiates monotonic soft-start-preventing reverse current and ensuring glitch-free operation in redundant power architectures.
What is the typical quiescent current of RTKA211803DE0000BU at 80V input with no load?
The typical quiescent current of RTKA211803DE0000BU is 5.5µA at 80V input, no load, and active switching. In shutdown (EN = 0V), it drops to 0.3µA typical, making it ideal for battery-backed systems requiring decades of shelf life and years of operational runtime.
Is RTKA211803DE0000BU pin-compatible with other devices in the RAA2118xx family?
Yes, RTKA211803DE0000BU is pin-compatible with RTKA211805DE0000BU and all RAA21180x variants in TSOT23-5 package. They share identical pinout, thermal characteristics, and protection architecture-allowing one PCB layout to support both 3.3V and 5V versions via BOM change only.
