Microchip Technology LM2576
The LM2576 series of monolithic integrated circuits provide all the active functions for a step-down (buck) switching regulator. Both versions are capable of driving a 3A 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.FEATURES
