7.3.3 Frequency Selection With RT

A resistor placed between the RT pin and PGND is used to select the set point switching frequency of the LMR60460-Q1 typically between 200kHz and 2.2MHz. The set point switching frequency represents the switching frequency which can occur if the LMR60460-Q1 were operating in continuous conduction mode with spread spectrum disabled. See also Section 7.3.9 for more information on how spread spectrum affects the switching frequency. Use the following equation to determine the RT resistor value for a desired set point switching frequency.

Equation 3. R T = 1 f s w - ( 69.6 × 10 - 9 ) 2.825 × 10 - 11

Where:

  • RT: represents the RT resistor value in ohms (Ω)
  • fsw: represents the set point switching frequency in hertz (Hz)
