DESCRIPTION
The input voltage ranges from 1.6V to
6.0V, allowing for a wide selection of
system battery voltages. Start-up
operation is guaranteed at 1.6V input
The LX1742 is capable of achieving
output voltages as high as 25V and the
output voltage is easily programmed
using two external resistors in
conjunction with the feedback pin.
The LX1742 has an additional feature
for simple dynamic adjustment of the

APPLICATION INFORMATION
OUTPUT VOLTAGE PROGRAMMING
Selecting the appropriate values for R1 and R2 in the
voltage divider connected to the feedback pin programs the
output voltage. Using a value between 40KΩ and 75KΩ for
R2 works well in most applications. R1 can be determined
by the following equation (where VREF = 1.29V nominal):
The load is powered from energy stored in the output
capacitor during the inductor charging cycle. Once the peak
inductor current value is achieved, the driver output is
turned off (off-time is typically 300ns) allowing a portion of
the energy stored in the inductor to be delivered to the load.
This causes the output voltage to continue to rise at the
input to the feedback circuit (i.e., comparator A). If the
voltage at the FB input is still less than 1.20V at the end of
the off-time period, the output switches the internal FET
“on” and the inductor charging cycle repeats until VFB is
greater than the internal reference. Typical converter
switching behavior is shown in Figure 11.
INDUCTOR SELECTION AND CURRENT LIMIT
PROGRAMMING
Setting the level of peak inductor current to
approximately 2X the expected maximum DC input current
will minimize the inductor size, the input ripple current, and
the output ripple voltage. The designer is encouraged to use
inductors that will not saturate at the peak inductor current
level. An inductor value of 47µH is recommended.
Choosing a lower value emphasizes peak current overshoot
while choosing a higher value emphasizes output ripple
voltage. The peak switch current is defined using a resistor
placed between the CS terminal and ground and the IPEAK
equation is:
The application of an external voltage source at the ADJ
pin allows for output voltage adjustment over a typical
range of approximately ±15%. The designer can select one
of two possible methods. One option is to vary the
reference voltage directly at the ADJ pin by applying a DC
voltage from 0.9 to 1.5V. The second option is to connect a
PWM logic signal to the ADJ pin (e.g., see Figure 2). The
LX1742 includes an internal 50pF capacitor to ground that
works with an external resistor to create a low-pass filter
(i.e., filter out the AC component of a pulse width
modulated input of fPWM ≥ 100KHz).

The maximum IPEAK value is limited by the ISRC value
(max. = 0.8ARMS). The minimum IPEAK value is defined
when RCS is zero. A typical value for the minimum peak
current (IMIN) at 25oC is 104mA. The parameter tD is related
to internal operation of the device. A typical value at 25oC
is 800ns. A typical value of ISCALE at 25oC is 22mA per KΩ.
All of these parameters have an effect on the final IPEAK
value.

Determine IPEAK where VIN equals 3.0V and RCS equals
4.02KΩ using nominal values for all other parameters.

APPLICATIONS
The adjustment voltage level is selectable (with limited
accuracy) by implementing the voltage divider created
between the external series resistor and the internal 2.5MΩ
resistor. If the DC voltage at the ADJ pin drops below
0.6V, the device will revert to the internal reference voltage
level of 1.20V. A typical adjustment curve is shown in
Figure 9 (see section titled: Characteristic Curves). Disabling the LX1742 is achieved by driving the SHDN pin
with a low-level logic signal thus reducing the device power
consumption to less than 1µA.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The LX1742 is a Pulse Frequency Modulated (PFM)
boost converter that is optimized for large step up voltage
applications like LCD biasing. It operates in a pseudohysteretic mode with a fixed switch “off time” of 300ns.
Converter switching is enabled when the feedback voltage,
VFB, falls below the 1.20V reference or VADJ (see Block
Diagram). When this occurs, comparator A activates the
off-time controller. The off-time controller and the current
limiting circuits activate comparator B and toggles the
output driver circuit. The output is switched “on”, and
remains “on”, until the inductor current ramps up to the
peak current level. This current level is set via the external
RCS resistor and monitored through the CS and SRC inputs.

Therefore, for COUT equals 4.7µF:
VRIPPLE = 38mV + 9.4mV + 10mV = 57.4mV
Increasing the output capacitor value results in the
reduction of the output voltage ripple voltage. Low ESR
capacitors are recommended to reduce ripple caused by the
switching current.
Multi-layer ceramic capacitors with
X5R or X7R dielectric are a superior choice featuring small
size, very low ESR, and a temperature stable dielectric.
Low ESR electrolytic capacitors such as solid tantalum or
OS-CON types are also acceptable. Moreover, adding a
capacitor from the output to the feedback pin (C2) allows
the internal feedback circuitry to respond faster which
further minimizes output voltage ripple and reduces noise
coupling into the high impedance feedback input.
DIODE SELECTION
A Schottky diode is recommended for most applications
(e.g. Microsemi UPS5819). The low forward voltage drop
and fast recovery time associated with this type of device
supports the switching demands associated with this circuit
topology. The designer is encouraged to consider the
diode’s average and peak current ratings with respect to the
application’s output and peak inductor current requirements.
Further, the diode’s reverse breakdown voltage
characteristic must be capable of withstanding a negative
voltage transition that is greater than VOUT.
The LX1742 has a built in diode that may be used instead of an
external device. Using this internal diode reduces system cost
however, overall efficiency decreases. The electrical connections
corresponding to use of the internal diode are shown in Figure 3.
In this configuration, the inductor is connected between the input
source and the SW pin (1). The output is taken directly from OUT
pin (8).
PCB LAYOUT
The LX1742 produces high slew-rate voltage and current
waveforms hence; the designer should take this into
consideration when laying out the circuit. Minimizing trace
lengths from the IC to the inductor, diode, input and output
capacitors, and feedback connection (i.e., pin 3) are typical
considerations. Moreover, the designer should maximize
the DC input and output trace widths to accommodate peak
current levels associated with this circuit.

OUTPUT RIPPLE CAPACITOR SELECTION
Output voltage ripple is a function of the inductor value
(L), the output capacitor value (COUT), the peak switch
current setting (IPEAK), the load current (IOUT), the input
voltage (VIN) and the output voltage (VOUT) for a this
boost converter regulation scheme. When the switch is
first turned on, the peak-to-peak voltage ripple is a
function of the output droop (as the inductor current
charges to IPEAK), the feedback transition error (i.e.,
typically 10mV), and the output overshoot (when the
stored energy in the inductor is delivered to the load at the
end of the charging cycle). Therefore the total ripple
voltage is

OVERVIEW
The LXE1742 evaluation board is available from
Microsemi for assessing overall circuit performance. The
evaluation board, shown in Figure 5, is 3 by 3 inches (i.e.,
7.6 X 7.6cm) square and factory calibrated to provide a
nominal 18V output from a 1.6V to 6.0V input. Circuit
designers can easily modify the output voltage and peak
current to suit their particular application by adjusting the
R2, R3, and R4 values accordingly.
Further, other
components are easily swapped out to promote design
verification of any particular circuit application. Table 1
describes the evaluation board’s electrical interface.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
The system level DC input voltage is applied to VIN.
Connect the test load to VOUT. The Vin & GND terminal
at J4 provides easy test point access. A similar connection is
available for monitoring the output voltage via J5. The
output voltage is adjusted by selecting appropriate values for
R3 and R24. Further adjustment of the output voltage is
achieved by applying either a DC voltage or a PWM-type
signal to the ADJ input (J4).
The evaluation board accommodates both low frequency
(f < 100KHz) and high frequency (f > 100KHz) PWM
signals by connecting either JU1 or JU4 jumper position
respectively. The ADJ pin is easily grounded for fixed
voltage applications by inserting a jumper into the JU5
position. Table 2 provides a complete list of all jumper
positions.
Removing the jumper from the /SHDN position disables
the LX1742 by disconnecting pin 4 from VIN. The load is
still capable of drawing current through the inductor & diode
circuit path when the IC is in shutdown mode. Hence,
VOUT during shutdown will be approximately VIN minus
the inductor and diode forward voltage drop.
The LX1742 can achieve output voltages up to 25V. In
certain applications, it is necessary to protect the load from
excessive voltage excursions.
The evaluation board
provides a zener clamp diode (D1) for this purpose.
The LXE1742 evaluation board offers a cost effective
solution for evaluation of the LX1742. Table 3 provides the
factory installed component list for the evaluation board and
the board schematic is shown in Figure 4.

Inserting a jumper (1) enables the LX1742 by connecting pin 4 directly to VIN. Removing this jumper (0)
disables the LX1742
Remove the factory installed jumper and insert a 4 ~6cm wire loop (optional) to observe the inductor
current waveform using a current probe.
Use this position when adjusting the output with an external PWM that has a repetition rate less than
100KHz. Or when using a DC adjustment voltage.
Use this position when adjusting the output with an external PWM that has a repetition rate in excess of
100KHz.
Use this position to ground the ADJ (pin 5) when using the LX1742 in a fixed output voltage mode
Note: (1) = jumper installed; (0) = jumper not installed.
