FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The LM2591HV series of regulators are monolithic
integrated 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 devices are available in fixed output
voltages of 3.3V, 5V, and an adjustable output
version.

Available in 5-Pin Package
This series of switching regulators is similar to the
LM2590HV, but without some of the supervisory and
performance features of the latter.
Input Voltage Range Up to 60V
150 kHz Fixed Frequency Internal Oscillator
On/Off Control
Requiring
a
minimum number of external

components, these regulators are simple to use and
include internal frequency compensation†, improved
line and load specifications and a fixed-frequency
oscillator.
Thermal Shutdown and Current Limit
Protection
The LM2591HV operates at a switching frequency of
150 kHz thus allowing smaller sized filter components
than what would be needed with lower frequency
switching regulators. Available in a standard 5-lead
package with several different lead bend options, and
a 5-lead Surface mount package.

•
Efficient Pre-Regulator for Linear Regulators
On-Card Switching Regulators
Other features include a specified ±4% tolerance on
output voltage under all conditions of input voltage
and output load conditions, and ±15% on the
oscillator frequency. External shutdown is included,
featuring typically 90 μA standby current. Self
protection features include a two stage current limit
for the output switch and an over temperature
shutdown for complete protection under fault
conditions.
