LM2574
52kHz Simple 0.5A Buck Regulator
General Description
The LM2574 family is a series of easy to use fixed and adjustable switching voltage regulators. The LM2574 contains all of the active circuitry necessary to construct a stepdown (buck) switching regulator and requires a minimum of external components.
The LM2574 is available in 3.3V and 5V fixed output versions, or an adjustable version with an output voltage range of 1.23V to 37V. Output voltage is guaranteed to ±4% for specified input and load conditions.
The LM2574 can supply 0.5A while maintaining excellent line and load regulation. The output switch includes cycleby-cycle current limiting, as well as thermal shutdown for full protection under fault conditions.
