Product details
Overview
LM2735XQMF/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a 1.6-MHz, 2.1-A current-mode boost/SEPIC DC/DC regulator in a 5-pin SOT-23 package, supporting 2.7–5.5 V input and up to 24 V output. It integrates a 170-mΩ NMOS switch, ±2% feedback voltage accuracy, internal soft start, and ultra-low 80 nA shutdown current-designed for space-constrained portable backlighting and USB-powered systems.
For engineers reviewing the LM2735XQMF/NOPB datasheet, LM2735XQMF/NOPB pinout, LM2735XQMF/NOPB application, or LM2735XQMF/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include switching frequency (1.6 MHz), peak switch current (2.1 A), feedback reference (1.255 V), thermal shutdown threshold (160°C), and SOT-23 package compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The LM2735XQMF/NOPB implements constant-frequency peak current-mode control with internal compensation, enabling stable regulation without external loop components. Its 1.6-MHz oscillator allows use of sub-2-mm surface-mount inductors and chip capacitors while maintaining up to 90% efficiency at 350 mA output.
Operation relies on pulse-by-pulse current limiting (2.1 A min), logic-high enable control, and a dedicated power ground (PGND) separate from analog ground (AGND) to minimize noise coupling. Thermal shutdown activates at 160°C with 10°C hysteresis, and undervoltage lockout engages below 2.3 V (rising) to prevent erratic startup.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Switching Frequency | 1.6 MHz - enables use of ≤2.2-µH inductors and reduces solution footprint by >40% vs 520-kHz variants |
| Peak Switch Current | 2.1 A - supports ≥350 mA output at 12 V with margin for transient loads in portable displays |
| Feedback Voltage | 1.255 V ±2% - sets output via resistor divider; accuracy ensures <±3% output error across temperature |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - compatible with single-cell Li-ion (3.0–4.2 V), USB 5 V, and 3.3-V rail inputs |
| Shutdown Current | 80 nA - extends battery life in always-on standby modes for handheld devices |
| RDS(ON) | 170 mΩ - limits conduction loss to <120 mW at 1 A, improving thermal performance in SOT-23 |
| Soft Start Time | 4 ms - controls output ramp rate to limit inrush current into large display capacitors |
Pinout & Package
LM2735XQMF/NOPB uses the DBV (SOT-23-5) package: 1.60 mm × 2.90 mm, 1.1-mm height, thermally enhanced with exposed pad connected to PGND.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Power input | Supplies power stage; must be decoupled with ≥10 µF ceramic capacitor near pin |
| SW | Switch node | Connects to inductor and catch diode anode; high dv/dt node requiring tight layout and ground guard ring |
| EN | Enable control | Logic-high active; float or >VIN+0.3 V risks latch-up; pull-down resistor required for default-off operation |
| FB | Feedback input | Senses output via resistor divider; trace must be short and routed away from SW and PGND to avoid noise coupling |
| GND | Signal ground | Reference for FB and EN; connect directly to PGND plane under IC via multiple vias for low-impedance return path |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Internal compensation | Eliminates need for external compensation network-reduces BOM count and design iteration time |
| Current-mode control | Provides inherent cycle-by-cycle overcurrent protection and fast transient response (<10 µs to 100 mA step) |
| Thermal shutdown | 160°C activation with 10°C hysteresis prevents permanent damage during sustained overload or poor heatsinking |
| Ultra-low shutdown current | 80 nA enables multi-year battery life in IoT sensors and remote controls powered by coin cells |
| Two-frequency option | 1.6-MHz variant (LM2735X) prioritizes size reduction; 520-kHz (LM2735Y) favors efficiency at medium loads |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar boost regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM2735YMF/NOPB | 520-kHz switching frequency; same pinout and features but lower frequency enables higher efficiency at >200 mA loads | Better suited for medium-power applications where board space is less constrained than efficiency | Select when optimizing for peak efficiency >88% at 300–500 mA rather than minimal footprint |
| TPS61040DRVR | Fixed 500-kHz frequency; 28-V max output; 1.1-A switch current; requires external compensation | Limited to lower output current; lacks integrated soft start and thermal shutdown hysteresis | Choose only if cost sensitivity outweighs need for robust protection and ease-of-use |
Compared with LM2735YMF/NOPB, the LM2735XQMF/NOPB trades ~3% peak efficiency for >2× smaller magnetics and 40% smaller PCB area; versus TPS61040DRVR, it delivers higher current capability, built-in protections, and simpler layout-making it superior for production-critical portable designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum output voltage supported by the LM2735XQMF/NOPB?
The LM2735XQMF/NOPB supports output voltages up to 24 V, set externally via the feedback resistor divider connected to the FB pin. This range accommodates common display backlight (12–24 V) and OLED panel bias (15–20 V) requirements. The internal 170-mΩ NMOS switch and thermal shutdown (160°C) ensure safe operation at these voltages when properly heatsunk.
Does the LM2735XQMF/NOPB require external compensation components?
No, the LM2735XQMF/NOPB features fully internal compensation optimized for stability across its operating range. Unlike many boost controllers, it eliminates the need for external RC networks or type-II/type-III compensators-reducing bill-of-materials count and layout complexity while maintaining >45° phase margin in typical applications.
What is the purpose of the separate AGND and PGND pins on the LM2735XQMF/NOPB?
The LM2735XQMF/NOPB separates analog ground (AGND) and power ground (PGND) to isolate noise-sensitive feedback circuitry from high-current switching paths. AGND serves as the reference for the FB and EN pins, while PGND carries pulsed inductor return current. Proper PCB layout-connecting both to a common ground plane under the IC via multiple vias-minimizes ground bounce and improves regulation accuracy.
Can the LM2735XQMF/NOPB operate from a single 3.7-V Li-ion battery?
Yes, the LM2735XQMF/NOPB operates across 2.7–5.5 V input, fully covering the discharge curve of a single-cell Li-ion battery (3.0–4.2 V nominal). Its 2.1-A switch current and 1.6-MHz frequency enable efficient 12-V output at 350 mA even at 3.0 V input-critical for maintaining display brightness throughout battery life.
How does the soft-start function of the LM2735XQMF/NOPB improve system reliability?
The LM2735XQMF/NOPB incorporates a 4-ms internal soft-start that ramps the error amplifier reference from 0 V to 1.255 V, controlling output voltage slew rate. This prevents inrush current into large output capacitors-reducing stress on input sources, catch diodes, and PCB traces-and eliminates display flash or microcontroller brownout during power-up in portable systems.
