Because this is current mode control, a 50 m sense resistor in series with the switch FET is used to provide a voltage (which is proportional to the FET current) to both the input of the pulse width modulation (PWM) comparator and the current limit amplifier. At the beginning of each cycle, the S-R latch turns on the FET. As the current through the FET increases, a voltage (proportional to this current) is summed with the ramp coming from the ramp generator and then fed into the input of the PWM comparator. When this voltage exceeds the voltage on the other input (coming from the Gm amplifier), the latch resets and turns the FET off. Since the signal coming from the Gm amplifier is derived from the feedback (which samples the voltage at the output), the action of the PWM comparator constantly sets the correct peak current through the FET to keep the output volatge in regulation. Q1 and Q2 along with R3 - R6 form a bandgap voltage reference used by the IC to hold the output in regulation. The currents flowing through Q1 and Q2 will be equal, and the feedback loop will adjust the regulated output to maintain this. Because of this, the regulated output is always maintained at a voltage level equal to the voltage at the FB node "multiplied up" by the ratio of the output resistive divider. The current limit comparator feeds directly into the flip-flop, that drives the switch FET. If the FET current reaches the limit threshold, the FET is turned off and the cycle terminated until the next clock pulse. The current limit input terminates the pulse regardless of the status of the output of the PWM comparator. 7.2 Functional Block Diagram 7.3 Feature Description 7.3.1 Switching Frequency The LM2733 device is provided with two switching frequencies: the "X" version is typically 1.6 MHz, while the "Y" version is typically 600 kHz. The best frequency for a specific application must be determined based on the tradeoffs involved. See Switching Frequency in the Detailed Design Procedure section. 10 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2002-2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2733 LM2733 www.ti.com SNVS209G - NOVEMBER 2002 - REVISED MAY 2019 7.4 Device Functional Modes 7.4.1 Shutdown Pin Operation The device is turned off by pulling the shutdown pin low. If this function is not going to be used, tie the pin directly to VIN. If the SHDN function is needed, a pullup resistor must be used to VIN (approximately 50 k to 100 k recommended). The SHDN pin must not be left unterminated.

TI's customers are responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality. 8.1 Application Information The LM2733 device is a high frequency switching boost regulator that offers small size and high power conversion efficiency. The "X" version of the part operates at 1.6 MHz switching frequency and the "Y" version at 600 kHz. The LM2733 device targets applications with high output voltages and uses a high voltage FET allowing switch currents up to 1 A. The LM2731 device is similar to the LM2733 device but has a lower voltage FET allowing switch currents up to 1.8 A. 8.2 Typical Application Figure 24.

They have the lowest ESR (equivalent series resistance) and highest resonance frequency which makes them optimum for use with high frequency switching converters. When selecting a ceramic capacitor, use only X5R and X7R dielectric types. Other types such as Z5U and Y5F have such severe loss of capacitance due to effects of temperature variation and applied voltage, they may provide as little as 20% of rated capacitance in many typical applications. Always consult capacitor manufacturer's data curves before selecting a capacitor. High-quality ceramic capacitors can be obtained from Taiyo-Yuden, AVX, and Murata. 12 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2002-2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2733 LM2733 www.ti.com SNVS209G - NOVEMBER 2002 - REVISED MAY 2019 8.2.2.2 Selecting the Output Capacitor A single ceramic capacitor of value 4.7 F to 10 F provides sufficient output capacitance for most applications. For output voltages below 10 V, a 10-F capacitance is required. If larger amounts of capacitance are desired for improved line support and transient response, tantalum capacitors can be used in parallel with the ceramics. Aluminum electrolytics with ultra-low ESR such as Sanyo Oscon can be used, but are usually prohibitively expensive. Typical AI electrolytic capacitors are not suitable for switching frequencies above 500 kHz due to significant ringing and temperature rise due to self-heating from ripple current. An output capacitor with excessive ESR can also reduce phase margin and cause instability. 8.2.2.3 Selecting the Input Capacitor An input capacitor is required to serve as an energy reservoir for the current which must flow into the coil each time the switch turns ON. This capacitor must have extremely low ESR, so ceramic is the best choice. TI recommends a nominal value of 2.2 F, but larger values can be used. Because this capacitor reduces the amount of voltage ripple detected at the input pin, it also reduces the amount of EMI passed back along that line to other circuitry. 8.2.2.4 Feedforward Compensation Although internally compensated, the feedforward capacitor Cf is required for stability (see Figure 24). Adding this capacitor puts a zero in the loop response of the converter. Without it, the regulator loop can oscillate. The recommended frequency for the zero fz is approximately 8 kHz. Cf can be calculated using the formula: Cf = 1 / (2 X X R1 X fz) (1) 8.2.2.5 Selecting Diodes The external diode used in the typical application should be a Schottky diode. If the switch voltage is less than 15 V, a 20-V diode such as the MBR0520 is recommended. If the switch voltage is between 15 V and 25 V, TI recommends a 30-V diode such as the MBR0530. If the switch voltage exceeds 25 V, a 40-V diode such as the MBR0540 should be used. The MBR05XX series of diodes are designed to handle a maximum average current of 0.5 A. For applications exceeding 0.5 A average but less than 1 A, a Microsemi UPS5817 can be used. 8.2.2.6 Setting the Output Voltage The output voltage is set using the external resistors R1 and R2 (see Figure 24). A value of approximately 13.3 k is recommended for R2 to establish a divider current of approximately 92 A. R1 is calculated using the formula: R1 = R2 X (VOUT/1.23 - 1) (2) 8.2.2.7 Switching Frequency The device options provide for two fixed frequency operating conditions 1.6 MHz, and 600 kHz. Chose the operating frequency required noting the following trade-offs: Higher switching frequency means the inductors and capacitors can be made smaller and cheaper for a given output voltage and current. The down side is that efficiency is slightly lower because the fixed switching losses occur more frequently and become a larger percentage of total power loss. EMI is typically worse at higher switching frequencies because more EMI energy will be seen in the higher frequency spectrum where most circuits are more sensitive to such interference. 8.2.2.8 Duty Cycle The maximum duty cycle of the switching regulator determines the maximum boost ratio of output-to-input voltage that the converter can attain in continuous mode of operation. The duty cycle for a given boost application is defined as: VOUT + VDIODE - VIN Duty Cycle = VOUT + VDIODE - VSW (3) This applies for continuous mode operation. Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2002-2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2733 13 LM2733 SNVS209G - NOVEMBER 2002 - REVISED MAY 2019 www.ti.com The equation shown for calculating duty cycle incorporates terms for the FET switch voltage and diode forward voltage. The actual duty cycle measured in operation will also be affected slightly by other power losses in the circuit such as wire losses in the inductor, switching losses, and capacitor ripple current losses from self-heating. Therefore, the actual (effective) duty cycle measured may be slightly higher than calculated to compensate for these power losses. A good approximation for effective duty cycle is : DC (eff) = (1 - Efficiency x (VIN/VOUT)) (4) Where the efficiency can be approximated from the curves provided. 8.2.2.9 Inductance Value The first question we are usually asked is: "How small can I make the inductor?" (because they are the largest sized component and usually the most costly). The answer is not simple and involves tradeoffs in performance. Larger inductors mean less inductor ripple current, which typically means less output voltage ripple (for a given size of output capacitor). Larger inductors also mean more load power can be delivered because the energy stored during each switching cycle is: E =L/2 X (lp)2 (5) Where "lp" is the peak inductor current. An important point to observe is that the LM2733 device will limit its switch current based on peak current. This means that since lp (maximum) is fixed, increasing L will increase the maximum amount of power available to the load. Conversely, using too little inductance may limit the amount of load current which can be drawn from the output. Best performance is usually obtained when the converter is operated in "continuous" mode at the load current range of interest, typically giving better load regulation and less output ripple. Continuous operation is defined as not allowing the inductor current to drop to zero during the cycle. It should be noted that all boost converters shift over to discontinuous operation as the output load is reduced far enough, but a larger inductor stays "continuous" over a wider load current range. To better understand these tradeoffs, a typical application circuit (5V to 12V boost with a 10 H inductor) will be analyzed. We will assume: VIN = 5 V, VOUT = 12 V, VDIODE = 0.5 V, VSW = 0.5 V Since the frequency is 1.6 MHz (nominal), the period is approximately 0.625 s. The duty cycle will be 62.5%, which means the ON time of the switch is 0.390 s. It should be noted that when the switch is ON, the voltage across the inductor is approximately 4.5 V. Using the equation: V = L (di/dt) (6) We can then calculate the di/dt rate of the inductor which is found to be 0.45 A/s during the ON time. Using these facts, we can then show what the inductor current will look like during operation: Figure 25. 10-H Inductor Current, 5-V - 12-V Boost (LM2733X) During the 0.390 s ON time, the inductor current ramps up 0.176 A and ramps down an equal amount during the OFF time. This is defined as the inductor "ripple current". It can also be seen that if the load current drops to about 33 mA, the inductor current will begin touching the zero axis which means it will be in discontinuous mode. A similar analysis can be performed on any boost converter, to make sure the ripple current is reasonable and continuous operation will be maintained at the typical load current values. 14 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2002-2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2733 LM2733 www.ti.com SNVS209G - NOVEMBER 2002 - REVISED MAY 2019 8.2.2.10 Maximum Switch Current The maximum FET swtch current available before the current limiter cuts in is dependent on duty cycle of the application. This is illustrated in the graphs below which show both the typical and specified values of switch current for both the "X" and "Y" versions as a function of effective (actual) duty cycle: 1600 1600 SWITCH CURRENT LIMIT (mA) SWITCH CURRENT LIMIT (mA) 1400 VIN = 5V 1200 1000 VIN = 3.3V 800 VIN = 2.7V 600 400 200 0 1400 VIN = 5V 1200 VIN = 3.3V 1000 800 VIN = 2.7V 600 400 200 0 0 20 40 60 80 100 0 20 40 60 80 100 DUTY CYCLE (%) = [1 - EFF*(VIN/VOUT))] DUTY CYCLE (%) = [1 - EFF*(VIN/VOUT))] Figure 26. Switch Current Limit vs Duty Cycle - "X" Figure 27. Switch Current Limit vs Duty Cycle - "Y" 8.2.2.11 Calculating Load Current As shown in the figure which depicts inductor current, the load current is related to the average inductor current by the relation: ILOAD = IIND(AVG) x (1 - DC) (7) Where "DC" is the duty cycle of the application. The switch current can be found by: ISW = IIND(AVG) + 1/2 (IRIPPLE) (8) Inductor ripple current is dependent on inductance, duty cycle, input voltage and frequency: IRIPPLE = DC x (VIN-VSW) / (f x L) (9) combining all terms, we can develop an expression which allows the maximum available load current to be calculated: ILOAD(max) = (1 - DC) x (ISW(max) - DC (VIN - VSW)) 2fL (10) The equation shown to calculate maximum load current takes into account the losses in the inductor or turn-OFF switching losses of the FET and diode. For actual load current in typical applications, we took bench data for various input and output voltages for both the "X" and "Y" versions of the LM2733 device and displayed the maximum load current available for a typical device in graph form: Figure 28.

A good approximation can be obtained by multiplying the "ON Resistance" of the FET times the average inductor current. FET on resistance increases at VIN values below 5 V, since the internal N-FET has less gate voltage in this input voltage range (see Typical Characteristics). Above VIN = 5 V, the FET gate voltage is internally clamped to 5 V. The maximum peak switch current the device can deliver is dependent on duty cycle. The minimum value is specified to be > 1 A at duty cycle below 50%. For higher duty cycles, see Typical Characteristics. 8.2.2.13 Thermal Considerations At higher duty cycles, the increased ON time of the FET means the maximum output current will be determined by power dissipation within the LM2733 FET switch. The switch power dissipation from ON-state conduction is calculated by: P(SW) = DC x IIND(AVE)2 x RDSON (11) There will be some switching losses as well, so some derating needs to be applied when calculating IC power dissipation. 8.2.2.14 Minimum Inductance In some applications where the maximum load current is relatively small, it may be advantageous to use the smallest possible inductance value for cost and size savings. The converter will operate in discontinuous mode in such a case. The minimum inductance should be selected such that the inductor (switch) current peak on each cycle does not reach the 1-A current limit maximum. To understand how to do this, an example will be presented. In the example, the LM2733X will be used (nominal switching frequency 1.6 MHz, minimum switching frequency 1.15 MHz). This means the maximum cycle period is the reciprocal of the minimum frequency: TON(max) = 1/1.15M = 0.870 s (12) We will assume the input voltage is 5 V, VOUT = 12 V, VSW = 0.2 V, VDIODE = 0.3 V. The duty cycle is: Duty Cycle = 60.3% Therefore, the maximum switch ON time is 0.524 s. An inductor should be selected with enough inductance to prevent the switch current from reaching 1A in the 0.524 s ON time interval (see below): Figure 30. Discontinuous Design, 5V-12V Boost (LM2733X) The voltage across the inductor during ON time is 4.8V. Minimum inductance value is found by: V = L X dl/dt, L = V X (dt/dl) = 4.8 (0.524/1) = 2.5 H (13) In this case, a 2.7 H inductor could be used assuming it provided at least that much inductance up to the 1A current value. This same analysis can be used to find the minimum inductance for any boost application. Using the slower switching "Y" version requires a higher amount of minimum inductance because of the longer switching period. 8.2.2.15 Inductor Suppliers Some of the recommended suppliers of inductors for this product include, but not limited to are Sumida, Coilcraft, Panasonic, TDK and Murata. When selecting an inductor, make certain that the continuous current rating is high enough to avoid saturation at peak currents. A suitable core type must be used to minimize core (switching) losses, and wire power losses must be considered when selecting the current rating. 16 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2002-2019, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2733 LM2733 www.ti.com SNVS209G - NOVEMBER 2002 - REVISED MAY 2019 8.2.3 Application Curves Figure 31.

The voltage on the shutdown pin should not exceed the voltage on the VIN pin. For applications that do not require a shutdown function the shutdown pin may be connected to the VIN pin. In this case a 47-K resistor is recommended to be connected between these pins. 10 Layout 10.1 Layout Guidelines High frequency switching regulators require very careful layout of components in order to get stable operation and low noise. All components must be as close as possible to the LM2733 device. It is recommended that a 4layer PCB be used so that internal ground planes are available. Some additional guidelines to be observed: 1. Keep the path between L1, D1, and C2 extremely short. Parasitic trace inductance in series with D1 and C2 will increase noise and ringing. 2. The feedback components R1, R2 and CF must be kept close to the FB pin of U1 to prevent noise injection on the FB pin trace. 3. If internal ground planes are available (recommended) use vias to connect directly to ground at pin 2 of U1, as well as the negative sides of capacitors C1 and C2. 10.2 Layout Example Figure 34.
