APPLICATION INFORMATION
THEORY OF OPERATION
The LM2734 is a constant frequency PWM buck regulator IC that delivers a 1A load current. The regulator has a
preset switching frequency of either 550kHz (LM2734Y) or 1.6MHz (LM2734X). These high frequencies allow the
LM2734 to operate with small surface mount capacitors and inductors, resulting in DC/DC converters that require
a minimum amount of board space. The LM2734 is internally compensated, so it is simple to use, and requires
few external components. The LM2734 uses current-mode control to regulate the output voltage.
The following operating description of the LM2734 will refer to the Simplified Block Diagram (Figure 22) and to
the waveforms in Figure 23. The LM2734 supplies a regulated output voltage by switching the internal NMOS
control switch at constant frequency and variable duty cycle. A switching cycle begins at the falling edge of the
reset pulse generated by the internal oscillator. When this pulse goes low, the output control logic turns on the
internal NMOS control switch. During this on-time, the SW pin voltage (VSW) swings up to approximately VIN, and
the inductor current (IL) increases with a linear slope. ILis measured by the current-sense amplifier, which
generates an output proportional to the switch current. The sense signal is summed with the regulator’s
corrective ramp and compared to the error amplifier’s output, which is proportional to the difference between the
feedback voltage and VREF. When the PWM comparator output goes high, the output switch turns off until the
next switching cycle begins. During the switch off-time, inductor current discharges through Schottky diode D1,
which forces the SW pin to swing below ground by the forward voltage (VD) of the catch diode. The regulator
loop adjusts the duty cycle (D) to maintain a constant output voltage.
Figure 23. LM2734 Waveforms of SW Pin Voltage and Inductor Current
BOOST FUNCTION
Capacitor CBOOST and diode D2 in Figure 24 are used to generate a voltage VBOOST. VBOOST - VSW is the gate
drive voltage to the internal NMOS control switch. To properly drive the internal NMOS switch during its on-time,
VBOOST needs to be at least 1.6V greater than VSW. Although the LM2734 will operate with this minimum voltage,
it may not have sufficient gate drive to supply large values of output current. Therefore, it is recommended that
VBOOST be greater than 2.5V above VSW for best efficiency. VBOOST VSW should not exceed the maximum
operating limit of 5.5V.
5.5V > VBOOST VSW > 2.5V for best performance.

Figure 24. VOUT Charges CBOOST
When the LM2734 starts up, internal circuitry from the BOOST pin supplies a maximum of 20mA to CBOOST. This
current charges CBOOST to a voltage sufficient to turn the switch on. The BOOST pin will continue to source
current to CBOOST until the voltage at the feedback pin is greater than 0.76V.
There are various methods to derive VBOOST:
1. From the input voltage (VIN)
2. From the output voltage (VOUT)
3. From an external distributed voltage rail (VEXT)
4. From a shunt or series zener diode
In the Simplifed Block Diagram of Figure 22, capacitor CBOOST and diode D2 supply the gate-drive current for the
NMOS switch. Capacitor CBOOST is charged via diode D2 by VIN. During a normal switching cycle, when the
internal NMOS control switch is off (TOFF) (refer to Figure 23), VBOOST equals VIN minus the forward voltage of D2
(VFD2), during which the current in the inductor (L) forward biases the Schottky diode D1 (VFD1). Therefore the
voltage stored across CBOOST is
VBOOST - VSW = VIN - VFD2 + VFD1 (1)
When the NMOS switch turns on (TON), the switch pin rises to
VSW = VIN (RDSON x IL), (2)
forcing VBOOST to rise thus reverse biasing D2. The voltage at VBOOST is then
VBOOST = 2VIN (RDSON x IL) VFD2 + VFD1 (3)
which is approximately
2VIN - 0.4V (4)
for many applications. Thus the gate-drive voltage of the NMOS switch is approximately
VIN - 0.2V (5)
An alternate method for charging CBOOST is to connect D2 to the output as shown in Figure 24. The output
voltage should be between 2.5V and 5.5V, so that proper gate voltage will be applied to the internal switch. In
this circuit, CBOOST provides a gate drive voltage that is slightly less than VOUT.
In applications where both VIN and VOUT are greater than 5.5V, or less than 3V, CBOOST cannot be charged
directly from these voltages. If VIN and VOUT are greater than 5.5V, CBOOST can be charged from VIN or VOUT
minus a zener voltage by placing a zener diode D3 in series with D2, as shown in Figure 25. When using a
series zener diode from the input, ensure that the regulation of the input supply doesn’t create a voltage that falls
outside the recommended VBOOST voltage.

Figure 25. Zener Reduces Boost Voltage from VIN
An alternative method is to place the zener diode D3 in a shunt configuration as shown in Figure 26. A small
350mW to 500mW 5.1V zener in a SOT or SOD package can be used for this purpose. A small ceramic
capacitor such as a 6.3V, 0.1µF capacitor (C4) should be placed in parallel with the zener diode. When the
internal NMOS switch turns on, a pulse of current is drawn to charge the internal NMOS gate capacitance. The
0.1 µF parallel shunt capacitor ensures that the VBOOST voltage is maintained during this time.
Resistor R3 should be chosen to provide enough RMS current to the zener diode (D3) and to the BOOST pin. A
recommended choice for the zener current (IZENER) is 1 mA. The current IBOOST into the BOOST pin supplies the
gate current of the NMOS control switch and varies typically according to the following formula for the X version:
IBOOST = 0.56 x (D + 0.54) x (VZENER VD2) mA (6)
IBOOST can be calculated for the Y version using the following:
IBOOST = 0.22 x (D + 0.54) x (VZENER - VD2) µA (7)
where D is the duty cycle, VZENER and VD2 are in volts, and IBOOST is in milliamps. VZENER is the voltage applied to
the anode of the boost diode (D2), and VD2 is the average forward voltage across D2. Note that this formula for
IBOOST gives typical current. For the worst case IBOOST, increase the current by 40%. In that case, the worst case
boost current will be
IBOOST-MAX = 1.4 x IBOOST (8)
R3 will then be given by
R3 = (VIN - VZENER) / (1.4 x IBOOST + IZENER) (9)
For example, using the X-version let VIN = 10V, VZENER = 5V, VD2 = 0.7V, IZENER = 1mA, and duty cycle D = 50%.
ThenIBOOST = 0.56 x (0.5 + 0.54) x (5 - 0.7) mA = 2.5mA (10)
R3 = (10V - 5V) / (1.4 x 2.5mA + 1mA) = 1.11k(11)

ENABLE PIN / SHUTDOWN MODE
The LM2734 has a shutdown mode that is controlled by the enable pin (EN). When a logic low voltage is applied
to EN, the part is in shutdown mode and its quiescent current drops to typically 30nA. Switch leakage adds
another 40nA from the input supply. The voltage at this pin should never exceed VIN + 0.3V.
SOFT-START
This function forces VOUT to increase at a controlled rate during start up. During soft-start, the error amplifier’s
reference voltage ramps from 0V to its nominal value of 0.8V in approximately 200µs. This forces the regulator
output to ramp up in a more linear and controlled fashion, which helps reduce inrush current. Under some
circumstances at start-up, an output voltage overshoot may still be observed. This may be due to a large output
load applied during start up. Large amounts of output external capacitance can also increase output voltage
overshoot. A simple solution is to add a feed forward capacitor with a value between 470pf and 1000pf across
the top feedback resistor (R1). See Figure 28 for further detail.
OUTPUT OVERVOLTAGE PROTECTION
The overvoltage comparator compares the FB pin voltage to a voltage that is 10% higher than the internal
reference Vref. Once the FB pin voltage goes 10% above the internal reference, the internal NMOS control
switch is turned off, which allows the output voltage to decrease toward regulation.
UNDERVOLTAGE LOCKOUT
Undervoltage lockout (UVLO) prevents the LM2734 from operating until the input voltage exceeds 2.74V(typ).
The UVLO threshold has approximately 440mV of hysteresis, so the part will operate until VIN drops below
2.3V(typ). Hysteresis prevents the part from turning off during power up if VIN is non-monotonic.
CURRENT LIMIT
The LM2734 uses cycle-by-cycle current limiting to protect the output switch. During each switching cycle, a
current limit comparator detects if the output switch current exceeds 1.7A (typ), and turns off the switch until the
next switching cycle begins.
THERMAL SHUTDOWN
Thermal shutdown limits total power dissipation by turning off the output switch when the IC junction temperature
exceeds 165°C. After thermal shutdown occurs, the output switch doesn’t turn on until the junction temperature
drops to approximately 150°C.
Design Guide
INDUCTOR SELECTION
The Duty Cycle (D) can be approximated quickly using the ratio of output voltage (VO) to input voltage (VIN):
(12)
The catch diode (D1) forward voltage drop and the voltage drop across the internal NMOS must be included to
calculate a more accurate duty cycle. Calculate D by using the following formula:
(13)
VSW can be approximated by:
VSW = IOx RDS(ON) (14)
The diode forward drop (VD) can range from 0.3V to 0.7V depending on the quality of the diode. The lower VDis,
the higher the operating efficiency of the converter.

The inductor value determines the output ripple current. Lower inductor values decrease the size of the inductor,
but increase the output ripple current. An increase in the inductor value will decrease the output ripple current.
The ratio of ripple current (ΔiL) to output current (IO) is optimized when it is set between 0.3 and 0.4 at 1A. The
ratio r is defined as:
(15)
One must also ensure that the minimum current limit (1.2A) is not exceeded, so the peak current in the inductor
must be calculated. The peak current (ILPK) in the inductor is calculated by:
ILPK = IO+ΔIL/2 (16)
If r = 0.5 at an output of 1A, the peak current in the inductor will be 1.25A. The minimum specified current limit
over all operating conditions is 1.2A. One can either reduce r to 0.4 resulting in a 1.2A peak current, or make the
engineering judgement that 50mA over will be safe enough with a 1.7A typical current limit and 6 sigma limits.
When the designed maximum output current is reduced, the ratio r can be increased. At a current of 0.1A, r can
be made as high as 0.9. The ripple ratio can be increased at lighter loads because the net ripple is actually quite
low, and if r remains constant the inductor value can be made quite large. An equation empirically developed for
the maximum ripple ratio at any current below 2A is:
r = 0.387 x IOUT-0.3667 (17)
Note that this is just a guideline.
The LM2734 operates at frequencies allowing the use of ceramic output capacitors without compromising
transient response. Ceramic capacitors allow higher inductor ripple without significantly increasing output ripple.
See the output capacitor section for more details on calculating output voltage ripple.
Now that the ripple current or ripple ratio is determined, the inductance is calculated by:
(18)
where fsis the switching frequency and IOis the output current. When selecting an inductor, make sure that it is
capable of supporting the peak output current without saturating. Inductor saturation will result in a sudden
reduction in inductance and prevent the regulator from operating correctly. Because of the speed of the internal
current limit, the peak current of the inductor need only be specified for the required maximum output current. For
example, if the designed maximum output current is 0.5A and the peak current is 0.7A, then the inductor should
be specified with a saturation current limit of >0.7A. There is no need to specify the saturation or peak current of
the inductor at the 1.7A typical switch current limit. The difference in inductor size is a factor of 5. Because of the
operating frequency of the LM2734, ferrite based inductors are preferred to minimize core losses. This presents
little restriction since the variety of ferrite based inductors is huge. Lastly, inductors with lower series resistance
(DCR) will provide better operating efficiency. For recommended inductors see Example Circuits.
INPUT CAPACITOR
An input capacitor is necessary to ensure that VIN does not drop excessively during switching transients. The
primary specifications of the input capacitor are capacitance, voltage, RMS current rating, and ESL (Equivalent
Series Inductance). The recommended input capacitance is 10µF, although 4.7µF works well for input voltages
below 6V. The input voltage rating is specifically stated by the capacitor manufacturer. Make sure to check any
recommended deratings and also verify if there is any significant change in capacitance at the operating input
voltage and the operating temperature. The input capacitor maximum RMS input current rating (IRMS-IN) must be
greater than:
(19)
It can be shown from the above equation that maximum RMS capacitor current occurs when D = 0.5. Always
calculate the RMS at the point where the duty cycle, D, is closest to 0.5. The ESL of an input capacitor is usually
determined by the effective cross sectional area of the current path. A large leaded capacitor will have high ESL
and a 0805 ceramic chip capacitor will have very low ESL. At the operating frequencies of the LM2734, certain
capacitors may have an ESL so large that the resulting impedance (2πfL) will be higher than that required to

X7R or X5R dielectrics. Consult capacitor manufacturer datasheet to see how rated capacitance varies over
operating conditions.
OUTPUT CAPACITOR
The output capacitor is selected based upon the desired output ripple and transient response. The initial current
of a load transient is provided mainly by the output capacitor. The output ripple of the converter is:
(20)
When using MLCCs, the ESR is typically so low that the capacitive ripple may dominate. When this occurs, the
output ripple will be approximately sinusoidal and 90° phase shifted from the switching action. Given the
availability and quality of MLCCs and the expected output voltage of designs using the LM2734, there is really no
need to review any other capacitor technologies. Another benefit of ceramic capacitors is their ability to bypass
high frequency noise. A certain amount of switching edge noise will couple through parasitic capacitances in the
inductor to the output. A ceramic capacitor will bypass this noise while a tantalum will not. Since the output
capacitor is one of the two external components that control the stability of the regulator control loop, most
applications will require a minimum at 10 µF of output capacitance. Capacitance can be increased significantly
with little detriment to the regulator stability. Like the input capacitor, recommended multilayer ceramic capacitors
are X7R or X5R. Again, verify actual capacitance at the desired operating voltage and temperature.
Check the RMS current rating of the capacitor. The RMS current rating of the capacitor chosen must also meet
the following condition:
(21)
CATCH DIODE
The catch diode (D1) conducts during the switch off-time. A Schottky diode is recommended for its fast switching
times and low forward voltage drop. The catch diode should be chosen so that its current rating is greater than:
ID1 = IOx (1-D) (22)
The reverse breakdown rating of the diode must be at least the maximum input voltage plus appropriate margin.
To improve efficiency choose a Schottky diode with a low forward voltage drop.
BOOST DIODE
A standard diode such as the 1N4148 type is recommended. For VBOOST circuits derived from voltages less than
3.3V, a small-signal Schottky diode is recommended for greater efficiency. A good choice is the BAT54 small
signal diode.
BOOST CAPACITOR
A ceramic 0.01µF capacitor with a voltage rating of at least 6.3V is sufficient. The X7R and X5R MLCCs provide
the best performance.
OUTPUT VOLTAGE
The output voltage is set using the following equation where R2 is connected between the FB pin and GND, and
R1 is connected between VOand the FB pin. A good value for R2 is 10k.

PCB Layout Considerations
When planning layout there are a few things to consider when trying to achieve a clean, regulated output. The
most important consideration when completing the layout is the close coupling of the GND connections of the CIN
capacitor and the catch diode D1. These ground ends should be close to one another and be connected to the
GND plane with at least two through-holes. Place these components as close to the IC as possible. Next in
importance is the location of the GND connection of the COUT capacitor, which should be near the GND
connections of CIN and D1.
There should be a continuous ground plane on the bottom layer of a two-layer board except under the switching
node island.
The FB pin is a high impedance node and care should be taken to make the FB trace short to avoid noise pickup
and inaccurate regulation. The feedback resistors should be placed as close as possible to the IC, with the GND
of R2 placed as close as possible to the GND of the IC. The VOUT trace to R1 should be routed away from the
inductor and any other traces that are switching.
High AC currents flow through the VIN, SW and VOUT traces, so they should be as short and wide as possible.
However, making the traces wide increases radiated noise, so the designer must make this trade-off. Radiated
noise can be decreased by choosing a shielded inductor.
The remaining components should also be placed as close as possible to the IC. Please see Application Note
AN-1229 SNVA054 for further considerations and the LM2734 demo board as an example of a four-layer layout.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other
changes to its semiconductor products and services per JESD46, latest issue, and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48, latest
issue. Buyers should obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and
complete. All semiconductor products (also referred to herein as “components”) are sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale
supplied at the time of order acknowledgment.
TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TI’s terms
and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary
to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily
performed.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers’ products. Buyers are responsible for their products and
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers’ products and applications, Buyers should provide
adequate design and operating safeguards.
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI components or services are used. Information
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services or a warranty or
endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration
and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered
documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions.
Resale of TI components or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that component or service
voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI component or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice.
TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.
Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for compliance with all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements
concerning its products, and any use of TI components in its applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support
that may be provided by TI. Buyer represents and agrees that it has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards which
anticipate dangerous consequences of failures, monitor failures and their consequences, lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause
harm and take appropriate remedial actions. Buyer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use
of any TI components in safety-critical applications.
In some cases, TI components may be promoted specifically to facilitate safety-related applications. With such components, TI’s goal is to
help enable customers to design and create their own end-product solutions that meet applicable functional safety standards and
requirements. Nonetheless, such components are subject to these terms.
No TI components are authorized for use in FDA Class III (or similar life-critical medical equipment) unless authorized officers of the parties
have executed a special agreement specifically governing such use.
Only those TI components which TI has specifically designated as military grade or “enhanced plastic” are designed and intended for use in
military/aerospace applications or environments. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any military or aerospace use of TI components
which have not been so designated is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and
regulatory requirements in connection with such use.
TI has specifically designated certain components as meeting ISO/TS16949 requirements, mainly for automotive use. In any case of use of
non-designated products, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet ISO/TS16949.
