Product details
Overview
L3751PUR from STMicroelectronics is a wide-input synchronous buck controller IC designed for high-voltage DC-DC conversion in telecom and industrial power supplies. It supports 6 V to 75 V input, delivers adjustable 0.8 V–60 V output, operates at 100 kHz–1 MHz, features 40 ns minimum on-time, and integrates 7.5 V gate drivers for standard-threshold MOSFETs - enabling efficient step-down from unregulated 48 V bus rails to 12 V/5 V system rails.
For engineers reviewing the L3751PUR datasheet, L3751PUR pinout, L3751PUR application, or L3751PUR equivalent, key selection considerations include its precision enable/UVLO threshold programming, diode emulation vs. forced PWM mode selection via SYNCIN, programmable current sensing (RSENSE or RDS(on)), Power Good validation timing (10/FSW filter), and thermal shutdown at 175 °C with 20 °C hysteresis.
Technical Context
The L3751PUR implements constant-frequency voltage-mode control with feedforward-adjusted ramp slope (kFF = 30 V/V) to maintain stable PWM gain across input voltage and switching frequency variations. Its internal 0.8 V reference error amplifier drives COMP, comparing FB voltage against a sawtooth ramp generated by an RRT-programmable oscillator or external SYNCIN clock.
It embeds dual-mode operation: diode emulation (DEM) for light-load efficiency via pulse skipping, and forced PWM (FPWM) for fixed-frequency, low-ripple regulation. The SS/TRK pin supports both soft-start (10 µA charge current) and input voltage tracking, while ILIM enables valley-current limiting with hiccup-mode short-circuit protection.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 6 V to 75 V - supports direct regulation from telecom 48 V or industrial 24 V unregulated buses without pre-regulation. |
| Output Voltage Range | 0.8 V to 60 V - adjustable via external resistor divider on FB, enabling single-controller flexibility across multiple rail voltages. |
| Switching Frequency | 100 kHz to 1 MHz - set by RRT resistor or synchronized externally; enables optimization of size (high FSW) vs. efficiency (low FSW). |
| Min. On-Time | 40 ns - enables extreme duty-cycle operation (e.g., 75 V → 5 V at 400 kHz), critical for high-input/low-output conversions. |
| Gate Drive Voltage | 7.5 V - sufficient to fully enhance standard-threshold N-channel MOSFETs, reducing conduction losses without requiring external level shifters. |
| Power Good Accuracy | ±2% window (92–108% of VREF) with 10/FSW filtering - ensures reliable sequencing of digital ICs during power-up and fault detection. |
| Thermal Protection | 175 °C shutdown with 20 °C hysteresis - prevents thermal runaway in enclosed or high-ambient industrial environments. |
Pinout & Package
The L3751PUR is housed in a QFN-20 package (3.5 mm × 4.5 mm) with wettable flanks for automated optical inspection and robust solder joint reliability.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| EN/UVLO | Enable & input UVLO threshold input | Resistor-divider tap sets turn-on (≥1.2 V) and shutdown (≤0.42 V) thresholds referenced to VIN; 10 µA hysteresis current enables precise hysteresis design. |
| RT | Oscillator frequency programming | Pull-down resistor to AGND sets FSW from 100 kHz to 1 MHz; enables feedforward-stable PWM gain across operating range. |
| SS/TRK | Soft-start capacitor charge / voltage tracking input | 10 µA internal current source charges CSS for monotonic startup; clamped to FB+115 mV during OCP recovery for controlled re-start. |
| COMP | Error amplifier output | Drives external Type II/III compensation network between COMP and FB to stabilize loop response across load and line transients. |
| FB | Inverting error amplifier input | Connects to resistor divider from VOUT; senses regulated output with 800 mV ±1% reference and 0.1 µA bias current for minimal divider error. |
| SYNCIN | External clock input / DEM/FPWM select | Logic-high or clock signal enables FPWM; logic-low forces DEM; supports smooth transition and 100 kHz–1 MHz sync with ±20%/+50% tolerance. |
| PGOOD | Open-collector output validation | Sinks when FB deviates >8% above or >8% below 0.8 V; 2 mA sink capability allows direct interfacing with FPGA/CPU reset controllers. |
| ILIM | Valley current limit sense input | Accepts voltage from external RSENSE or direct RDS(on) sensing; 100 µA typical source current enables accurate threshold setting. |
| HO / LO | High-side / low-side gate drivers | 7.5 V drive with 0.9 Ω low-side and 1.5 Ω high-side pull-down resistance; 7 ns rise/4 ns fall times support high-frequency MOSFET switching. |
| BST | Bootstrap supply node | Requires 100 nF capacitor to SW; internal BST UVLO (3.4 V) prevents shoot-through during bootstrap capacitor discharge. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Adjustable soft-start or input voltage tracking | 10 µA SS/TRK current source enables <100 ms startup time or precise multi-rail sequencing via external voltage source. |
| Diode emulation (DEM) + forced PWM (FPWM) | Automatic DEM-to-FPWM transition minimizes light-load ripple while maintaining high efficiency - no external mode-select circuitry required. |
| Precision enable with programmable UVLO hysteresis | Single-resistor-divider interface on EN/UVLO allows independent setting of VIN turn-on/off thresholds with built-in 50 mV hysteresis. |
| Lossless or resistive current sensing | ILIM pin supports either RSENSE shunt or RDS(on)-based sensing - eliminates sense resistor power loss in high-current applications. |
| Improved line transient response | VIN feedforward (kFF = 30 V/V) maintains constant PWM gain across 6–75 V input, reducing output deviation during fast input steps. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM5116PWPR | Wider 6–100 V input, but fixed 1.22 V reference and no integrated 7.5 V gate driver - requires external driver or logic-level MOSFETs. | Supports higher VIN max but lacks PGOOD accuracy (±5%) and DEM/FPWM mode flexibility. | Select when >75 V input is mandatory and board space allows discrete driver; avoid if 0.8 V reference or seamless light-load mode transition is required. |
| MPQ4316GLED | Integrated power stage (40 V max), not a controller - no external MOSFET flexibility or 75 V capability; uses current-mode control. | Targeted at compact, lower-power (<10 A) applications; lacks RRT-programmable frequency and VIN feedforward. | Choose only for space-constrained 24 V input designs where integration outweighs flexibility; unsuitable for 48/72 V telecom or industrial inputs. |
Compared with LM5116PWPR and MPQ4316GLED, the L3751PUR uniquely combines ultra-wide 6–75 V input, 40 ns min-on-time, integrated 7.5 V gate drivers, and dual DEM/FPWM operation - making it the only option supporting high-ratio, high-reliability buck conversion with programmable sequencing and thermal robustness in a single QFN package.

FAQ
What is the minimum recommended input voltage for reliable startup?
The L3751PUR requires ≥6 V on VIN to initiate internal VCC regulator operation and enable functional startup. Below 6 V, the VCC LDO cannot sustain 7.5 V output, preventing gate driver activation and PWM generation. Startup is guaranteed at 6 V with full specification compliance, including EN/UVLO thresholds and soft-start functionality.
How does the ILIM pin support both resistive and lossless current sensing?
The ILIM pin accepts either a voltage drop across an external sense resistor (RSENSE mode, 100 µA source current) or the drain-source voltage of the low-side MOSFET (RDS(on) mode, 200 µA source current). Internal circuitry scales the sensed voltage to match the same 0–4.5 mV comparator threshold, enabling accurate valley-current limiting without added power loss in high-current designs.
Can the L3751PUR operate without an external bootstrap diode?
No - the BST pin requires an external Schottky diode (e.g., 1N5819) between VCC and BST to charge the bootstrap capacitor during LO conduction. Omitting the diode prevents high-side gate drive, causing continuous LO-only operation and immediate overcurrent failure. The diode must support ≥100 mA peak current and ≤0.5 V forward drop.
What is the maximum allowable voltage difference between BST and SW pins?
The absolute maximum BST-to-SW voltage difference is 13 V per datasheet Table 3. Exceeding this risks permanent damage to the high-side driver. During normal operation, BST voltage is ~7.5 V above SW; the internal BST UVLO (3.4 V min differential) disables HO if the bootstrap capacitor discharges below safe margin, preventing shoot-through.
