LM2747
Synchronous Buck Controller with Pre-bias Startup, and
Optional Clock Synchronization
General Description
The LM2747 is a high-speed synchronous buck regulator
controller with a feedback voltage accuracy of ±1%. It can
provide simple down conversion to output voltages as low as
0.6V. Though the control section of the IC is rated for 3 to 6V,
the driver section is designed to accept input supply rails as
high as 14V. The use of adaptive non-overlapping MOSFET
gate drivers helps avoid potential shoot-through problems
while maintaining high efficiency. The IC is designed for the
more cost-effective option of driving only N-channel MOS-
FETs in both the high-side and low-side positions. It senses
the low-side switch voltage drop for providing a simple,
adjustable current limit.
The LM2747 features a fixed-frequency voltage-mode PWM
control architecture which is adjustable from 50 kHz to 1
MHz with one external resistor. In addition, the LM2747 also
allows the switching frequency to be synchronized to an
external clock signal over the range of 250 kHz to 1 MHz.
This wide range of switching frequency gives the power
supply designer the flexibility to make better tradeoffs be-
tween component size, cost and efficiency.
Features include the ability to startup with a pre-biased load
on the output, soft-start, input undervoltage lockout (UVLO)
and Power Good (based on both undervoltage and overvolt-
age detection). In addition, the shutdown pin of the IC can be
used for providing startup delay, and the soft-start pin can be
used for implementing precise tracking, for the purpose of
sequencing with respect to an external rail.
