LM2576TADJ Voltage Regulator

Description

The LM2576 series voltage regulators are monolithic integrated circuits that provide all the active functions for a step-down (buck) switching regulator, capable of handling a 3 A load with excellent line and load regulation. The LM2576TADJ model is an adjustable-output version.

Requiring a minimum number of external components, these regulators are easy to use and include fault protection and a fixed-frequency oscillator.

The LM2576 series offers a high-efficiency alternative to the popular three-terminal linear regulators. It substantially reduces heatsink size and, in some cases, does not require a heatsink at all.
