LM2576/LM2576HV Series
SIMPLE SWITCHER® 3A Step-Down Voltage Regulator
General Description
The LM2576 series of regulators are monolithic integrated
circuits that provide all the active functions for a step-down
(buck) switching regulator, capable of driving 3A load with
excellent line and load regulation. These devices are available
in fixed output voltages of 3.3V, 5V, 12V, 15V, and an
adjustable output version.
Requiring a minimum number of external components, these
regulators are simple to use and include internal frequency
compensation and a fixed-frequency oscillator.
The LM2576 series offers a high-efficiency replacement for
popular three-terminal linear regulators. It substantially reduces
the size of the heat sink, and in some cases no heat
sink is required.
