Here is the datasheet of the TI switcher using in my design http://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/tps54620.pdf

Could you please help to find the full-form of RT in RT resistor? Attached is the relevant screenshot for reference. Screenshot

Thanks VT

RT means resistor timer for an Astable Clock with external R or external logic clock for synchronous operation, possibly used for N phase shifted parallel converters or EMI or inductor property purposes.

  • \$\begingroup\$ yes, thats what the spec says for R values. We know it also has some PLL but this would not be the VCO input hence the R bias or over-ride or RT/CLK input. \$\endgroup\$

Assuming that "the full-form of RT" means that you want to determine the value of RT, read Section 8.4.1.
