AN–1302 LM2750-ADJ Evaluation Board
1
Part Description
The LM2750-ADJ is a switched-capacitor doubler that produces a low-noise, well regulated output voltage.
With a pair of external resistors, the output voltage can easily be set to a level between 3.8V and 5.2V.
The LM2750 is provided in Texas Instruments 10-pin QFN, a package with excellent thermal properties
that keeps the part from overheating under almost all rated operating conditions.
A perfect fit for space-constrained, battery-powered applications, the LM2750 requires only 3 external
components: one input capacitor, one output capacitor, and one flying capacitor. Small, inexpensive
ceramic capacitors are recommended for use. These capacitors, in conjunction with the 1.7MHz fixed
switching frequency of the LM2750, yield low output voltage ripple, beneficial for systems requiring a lownoise supply.
Pre-regulation minimizes input current ripple, reducing input noise to negligible levels. A tightly controlled
soft-start feature limits inrush currents during part activation. Shutdown completely disconnects the load
from the input. Output current limiting and thermal shutdown circuitry protect both the LM2750 and
connected devices in the event of output shorts or excessive current loads.

Board Usage
2.1
Input
Connect the input and ground pins of the evaluation board to a power supply or battery with short, lowimpedance, low-inductance wires or cables. The nominal input voltage range of the LM2750-ADJ is 2.7V
to 5.6V, but at lower output voltages (Vout < 4.9V) the input voltage should never be more than 0.7V
below the output voltage.
2.2
Output Voltage and Current
The output voltage of the LM2750-ADJ can be programmed with a simple resistor divider (see resistors
Rfb1 and Rfb2 on Figure 1). The values of the feedback resistors set the output voltage, as determined by
the following equation:
Vout = 1.23V × (1 + Rfb1/Rfb2)
(1)
In Equation 1, the "1.23V" term is the nominal voltage of the feedback pin when the feedback loop is
correctly established and the part is operating normally. The sum of the resistance of the two feedback
resistors should be between 15kΩ and 20kΩ:
15kΩ < (Rfb1 + Rfb2) < 20kΩ
If larger feedback resistors are desired, a 10pF capacitor should be placed in parallel with resistor R1.
The output voltage of the LM2750 is ensured to accurate to ±4% when it is set to 5.0V and the part is
operated withing nominal operating ratings. Regulation is specified for load currents as high as 120mA.
The LM2750 is capable or driving load currents up to and above 120mA. The LM2750 datasheet provides
information on high load current usage, and datasheet curves illustrate the typical performance of the part
with output currents as high as 175mA.

Shutdown
A jumper is present on the evaluation board to bring the LM2750 in and out of shutdown. When the
jumper is in place, the SD pin is connected to VIN, and the part is operational.
Removing the jumper floats the SD pin. A 200kΩ resistor connected internally between the SD pin and
GND pulls the voltage on the SD pin low. This places the LM2750 in shutdown.

To meet LM2750 minimum capacitance requirements, 10V is the minimum recommended voltage rating for all capacitors. This
elevated rating recommendation accounts for capacitance degradation due to DC bias, a common property of ceramic
capacitors. For more information on capacitors, refer to LM2750 Low Noise Switched Capacitor Boost Regulator (SNVS180).
