TPS6734ID

Voltage Regulators - DC DC Switching Regulators Overview

The TPS6734ID is a fixed 12-V boost converter supply from Texas Instruments, designed for programming voltage applications. It operates within an input range of 2.7 V to 11 V and delivers an output current of 120 mA or greater. The device features a shutdown function and exhibits a load regulation of 0.0042 %. Packaged in an 8-pin SOIC, it functions as a step-up switching regulator with a typical switching frequency of 170 kHz.

Voltage Regulators - DC DC Switching Regulators Feature Summary

• Pin-for-pin compatible with MAX734
• Designed for flash memory programming voltage generation
• Includes shutdown capability for power management

Voltage Regulators - DC DC Switching Regulators Applications

• Flash memory programming
• Fixed 12-V boost conversion
• Portable electronic devices requiring regulated higher voltage rails

Voltage Regulators - DC DC Switching Regulators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'ID' corresponds to the industrial temperature grade and 8-SOIC package configuration. Confirm that the required output current meets the 120 mA specification, as other variants may offer different current ratings. Ensure compatibility with existing MAX734 footprints if replacing legacy designs.

Voltage Regulators - DC DC Switching Regulators Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 12-V output is required from a low-voltage source between 2.7 V and 11 V. It is suitable for applications needing pin-compatible replacement for MAX734. Consider the 170 kHz switching frequency and 8-SOIC package constraints for PCB layout and thermal management requirements.

Voltage Regulators - DC DC Switching Regulators Part Context

This part belongs to the TPS6734 family of fixed-output boost converters. It serves as a direct replacement for the Maxim MAX734, offering similar functionality in a Texas Instruments package. The series focuses on simple, cost-effective voltage boosting for memory programming and other low-current high-voltage needs.

Voltage Regulators - DC DC Switching Regulators Replacement Considerations

The TPS6734ID is explicitly documented as pin-for-pin compatible with the MAX734. Verify that the MAX734 being replaced is indeed the fixed 12-V variant to ensure functional equivalence without circuit redesign.
