52kHz Simple 1A Buck Regulator
General Description
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-bycycle current limiting and thermal shutdown for full protection under fault conditions.
