LM2575EP/LM2575HVEP
SIMPLE SWITCHER® 1A Step-Down Voltage Regulator
ENHANCED PLASTIC
General Description
•
Extended Temperature Performance of
−40˚C ≤ TJ ≤ +125˚C
The LM2575EP series of regulators are monolithic inte-
grated circuits that provide all the active functions for a
step-down (buck) switching regulator, capable of driving a
1A load with excellent line and load regulation. These de-
vices are available in fixed output voltages of 3.3V, 5V, 12V,
15V, and an adjustable output version.

Qualification & Reliability Data
Solder (PbSn) Lead Finish is standard
Requiring a minimum number of external components, these
regulators are simple to use and include internal frequency
compensation and a fixed-frequency oscillator.
Enhanced Diminishing Manufacturing Sources (DMS)
Support
The LM2575EP series offers a high-efficiency replacement
for popular three-terminal linear regulators. It substantially
reduces the size of the heat sink, and in many cases no heat
sink is required.
Features
n 3.3V, 5V, 12V, 15V, and adjustable output versions
n Adjustable version output voltage range,
1.23V to 37V (57V for HV version) 4% max over
line and load conditions
A standard series of inductors optimized for use with the
LM2575EP are available from several different manufactur-
ers. This feature greatly simplifies the design of switch-mode
power supplies.
n Guaranteed 1A output current
n Wide input voltage range, 40V up to 60V for HV version
n Requires only 4 external components
n 52 kHz fixed frequency internal oscillator
n TTL shutdown capability, low power standby mode
n High efficiency
n Uses readily available standard inductors
n Thermal shutdown and current limit protection
n P+ Product Enhancement tested
Other features include a guaranteed 4% tolerance on out-
put voltage within specified input voltages and output load
conditions, and 10% on the oscillator frequency. External
shutdown is included, featuring 50 µA (typical) standby cur-
rent. The output switch includes cycle-by-cycle current limit-
ing, as well as thermal shutdown for full protection under
fault conditions.
Applications
n Simple high-efficiency step-down (buck) regulator
n Efficient pre-regulator for linear regulators
n On-card switching regulators
n Positive to negative converter (Buck-Boost)
n Selected Military Applications
n Selected Avionics Applications
