The RTKA212832DR0000BU provides a simple
platform to demonstrate the performances of the
RAA212832. The RAA212832 is an integrated 72V
input voltage, 0.5A output load one synchronous buck
regulator with a fixed switching frequency from
350kHz, and two 100mA and 50mA output load linear
regulators LDOs. The buck can support a wide input
voltage range of 14V to 72V, and a fixed output
voltage of 12V. The LDO_3V3 can support a wide
input voltage range of 6V to 12V, and the output
voltage is fixed at 3.3V. The LDO_5 can support a
wide input voltage range of 6V to 12V, and the output
voltage is fixed at 5V. It is designed for small size and
high integration electric-bike control board power
management. Integrated buck and LDOs minimize
the system components.
The buck converter adopts peak current mode
control, providing 500mA current for load and
downstream LDO regulators, while the following
LDOs provide 5V and 3.3V regulated power source to
system. The current-mode buck converter provides
fast transient response and cycle-by-cycle switching
current limit. All output voltages are fixed internally
with few external components.
The RAA212832 has fixed frequency operation, even
the output terminal is light load condition; therefore,
the switching frequency is fixed during the load
variation. The RAA212832 also has a pin STBY to
enable or disable the standby function to control the
buck output voltage as 6V or 12V. When the STBY pin
is high and enabled, the standby function to control
buck output voltage is changed from 12V down to 6V
to save more energy with LDOs operations only.

1. Functional Description
The RTKA212832DR0000BU demonstration board provides a simple platform to demonstrate the features of the
RAA212832. The RTKA212832DR0000BU has a functionally optimized RAA212832 circuit layout that allows
efficient operation up to the maximum output current.
The RTKA212832DR0000BU demonstration board is shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4. Figure 5 shows the
schematic. The bill of materials and PCB layout information are also provided for your reference. Figure 8 through
Figure 31 show performance data taken using this hardware.
1.1 Operation Range
The RTKA212832DR0000BU demonstration board input voltage range is 14V to 72V. The output voltage is fixed
at 12V when the STBY pin is low and 6V when STBY pin is high. Therefore, the RAA212832 does not need an
external feedback resistor design, it is a simple setting for use. For the LDO_5V rail, the output voltage is 5V
(default) with a 100mA maximum output current. For the LDO_3V3 rail, the output voltage is 3.3V (default) with a
50mA maximum output current.
1.2 Setup and Configuration
See Figure 2 and complete the following steps:
1. Connect the power supply to the input terminals, VIN (J1) and GND (J6). Connect the load to the output
terminals, VOUT (J3) and GND (T2). Connect the load to the LDO_5V output terminals, LDO_5V (J2) and
GND(J8). Connect the load to the LDO_3V3 output terminals, LDO_3V3 (J2) and GND (J8).
2. Ensure the setup is correctly connected before applying any power or load to the board.
3. Turn on the power supply, and the part should start operating.
4. Verify that the buck output voltage is 12V when STBY is low, and phase node waveforms can be monitored at
TP1. Verify that the LDO_5V output voltage is 5V and the LDO_3V3 output voltage is 3.3V.

2. Board Design
2.1 Layout Guidelines
A good PCB layout is important to achieve expected performance. Consideration should be taken when placing
the components and routing the trace to minimize the ground impedance and keep the parasitic inductance low.
The input and output capacitors should have a good ground connection and be placed as close to the IC as
possible. Place the LDO_VIN pin trace away from noisy planes and traces. The via pattern under the RAA212832
is connected to a large ground copper plane on the bottom layer for effective thermal dissipation.
