GL2596
3A STEP-DOWN VOLTAGE REGULATOR
Description
GL2596 of regulators provides all the active functions for a
step-down (buck) switching regulator, and drives 3A load
with excellent line and load regulation. GL2596's is
available in fixed output voltages of 3.3V, 5V, 12V, and a
versatile Adjustable output version.
These regulators are simple to use and require a minimum number of external components. Features include internal frequency compensation and a fixed-frequency oscillator. The GL2596 is high-efficiency replacements for popular three-terminal linear regulators, and is requiring a smaller heatsink or even no heatsink.
GL2596 performs well with standard inductors from several manufacturers, and simplifying the design of switch-mode power supplies.
