About this manual

The LM2743 is a high‑speed N‑Channel synchronous buck regulator controller with a 2 % 0.6 V feedback reference designed for down‑conversion from 3.3 V to as low as 0.6 V. It uses a voltage‑mode PWM architecture whose switching frequency is adjustable from 50 kHz to 2 MHz, allowing designers to balance component size, cost, noise, and efficiency.

Key features include a wide MOSFET input voltage range (1 V‑16 V), IC input voltage range (3 V‑6 V), adjustable output down to 0.6 V, power‑good flag, under‑/over‑voltage flags, soft‑start, and a TSSOP‑14 package. The document provides pin descriptions, absolute maximum ratings, electrical characteristics, typical performance curves, and PCB layout guidelines.

Frequently asked questions

What is the MOSFET input voltage range for the LM2743?

The MOSFET input voltage can be between 1 V and 16 V.

What switching frequency range does the LM2743 support?

The device supports a switching frequency from 50 kHz up to 2 MHz.

How low can the output voltage be set?

The output voltage is adjustable down to 0.6 V.

Which pin provides the power‑good signal?

Pin 6 (PWGD) is the power‑good pin; it is an open‑drain output that goes low on under‑voltage, over‑voltage, or UVLO conditions.
