LM2575
52kHz Simple 1A Buck Regulator
General Description
Features
The LM2575 series of monolithic integrated circuits
provide all the active functions for a step-down (buck)
switching regulator. Fixed versions are available with a
3.3V, 5V, 12V, fixed output. Adjustable versions have an
output voltage range from 1.23V to 37V. Both versions are
capable of driving a 1A load with excellent line and load
regulation.
These regulators are simple to use because they require a
minimum number of external components and include
internal frequency compensation and a fixed-frequency
oscillator.
The LM2575 series offers a high efficiency replacement for
popular three-terminal adjustable linear regulators. It
substantially reduces the size of the heat sink, and in
many cases no heat sink is required.
A standard series of inductors available from several
different manufacturers are ideal for use with the LM2575
series. This feature greatly simplifies the design of switch-
mode power supplies.
The feedback voltage is guaranteed to ±2% tolerance for
adjustable versions, and the output voltage is guaranteed
to ±3% for fixed versions, within specified input voltages
and output load conditions. The oscillator frequency is
guaranteed to ±10%. External shutdown is included,
featuring less than 200µA standby current. The output
switch includes cycle-by-cycle current limiting and thermal
shutdown for full protection under fault conditions.

Notes:
1. Absolute Maximum Rating indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings indicate conditions for which the device
is intended to be functional, but do not guarantee specific performance limits. For guaranteed specifications and test conditions, see the Electrical
Characteristics.
2. All limits guaranteed at room temperature (standard type face) and at temperature extremes (bold type face). All room temperature limits are100%
production tested. All limits at temperature extreme are guaranteed via testing.
3. External components such as the catch diode, inductor, input and output capacitors can affect switching regulator system performance. When the
LM2575/LM1575 is used as shown in Figure 1 test circuit, system performance will be shown in system parameters section of Electrical
Characteristics.
4. Output (pin 2) sourcing current. No diode, inductor or capacitor connected to output.
5. Feedback (pin 4) removed from output and connected to 0V.
6. Feedback (pin 4) removed from output and connected to 12V to force the output transistor OFF.
7. Junction to ambient thermal resistance (no external heat sink) for the 5-pin TO-220 package mounted vertically, with 1/2" leads in a socket, or on PC
board with minimum copper area.
8. Junction to ambient thermal resistance (no external heat sink) for the 5-pin TO-220 package mounted vertically, with 1/4" leads soldered to PC
board containing approximately 4 square inches of copper area surrounding the leads.
9. Junction to ambient thermal resistance with approximately 1 square inch of pc board copper surrounding the leads. Additional copper will lower
thermal resistance further.
