driving 3A load with excellent line and load regulation.
Range,1.23V to 37V (57V for HV Version) ±4%
These devices are available in fixed output voltages
Max Over Line and Load Conditions
of 3.3V, 5V, 12V, 15V, and an adjustable output
version.
Specified 3A Output Current
Wide Input Voltage Range, 40V Up to 60V for
Requiring a minimum number of external
HV Version components, these regulators are simple to use and
include internal frequency compensation and a fixed-

The LM2576 series offers a high-efficiency
TTL Shutdown Capability, Low Power Standby
replacement for popular three-terminal linear
Mode
regulators. It substantially reduces the size of the
High Efficiency
heat sink, and in some cases no heat sink is
required.
Uses Readily Available Standard Inductors
Thermal Shutdown and Current Limit
A standard series of inductors optimized for use with
Protection
the LM2576 are available from several different
manufacturers. This feature greatly simplifies the
