FEATURES
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.

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.

APPLICATIONS
Other features include a specified ±4% tolerance on
output voltage within specified input voltages and
output load conditions, and ±10% on the oscillator
frequency. External shutdown is included, featuring
50 μA (typical) standby current. The output switch
includes cycle-by-cycle current limiting, as well as
thermal shutdown for full protection under fault
conditions.
