General Description
The AE2576 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. Requiring a minimum number of external components, these
regulators are simple to use and include internal frequency compensation and a fixed frequency oscillator. A standard series of inductors optimized for use with the AE2576 are available from several different manufacturers. This
feature greatly simplifies the design of switch-mode power supplies. Others features include a guaranteed ±4% tolerance on output voltage within
specified input voltages and output load conditions, and ±10% on the oscillator frequency. External shutdown in includ...
