The AP5727 is a high efficiency boost converter in a
compact SOT25 that provides the bias voltages for OLED
Sub Display and TFT-LCD (Liquid Crystal Display).
A high 1.2MHz switching frequency and internal
compensation minimizes external part count, PCB area and
cost. Integrated soft start reduces inrush current.
The AP5727 has a 1.25V feedback voltage making it
compatible with industry standard boost converters used to
bias LCD panels.

Pin Descriptions
Name Description
SW Switch Pin. Connect inductor/diode here. Minimize trace area at this pin to reduce EMI.
GND GND pin
FB Feedback Pin. Reference voltage is 1.25V.
EN
VIN Input Supply Pin. Must be locally decoupled - 4.7μF recommended to reduce input noise.
A 10μH~22μH inductor is recommended for most AP5727 applications. Although small size and high efficienc y are major
concerns, the inductor should have low core loss at 1.2MHz and low DCR.
Capacitor Selection
Ceramic capacitors, due to their small size, are ideal for AP5727 applications. X5R and X7R types are recommended
because they retain their capacitance over wider voltage and temperature ranges than other types such as X5R and X7R.
A 4.7μF input capacitor and a 10μF output capacitor are sufficient for most AP5727 applications.
Diode Selection
Schottky diodes, with their low forward voltage drop and fast reverse recovery, are the ideal choices for AP5727 applications.
The forward voltage drop of a Schottky diode represents the conduction loss in the diod e, while the diode capacitance (C
represents the switching loss. For diode selection, both forward voltage d rop and diode capac itance need to be considere d.
Schottky diodes with higher current ratings usually have lower forward voltage drop and larger diode capacitance, which can
cause significant switching loss at the 1.2MHz switching frequency of the AP5727.
