The LM2574N-5.0/NOPB is a SIMPLE SWITCHER® Step-down Voltage Regulator provides all the active functions for a step-down (buck) switching regulator, capable of driving a 0.5A load with excellent line and load regulation. This regulator is available in fixed output voltages of 5V version and requiring a minimum number of external components, these regulators are simple to use and include internal frequency compensation and a fixed-frequency oscillator. The LM2574 series offers a high-efficiency replacement for popular three-terminal linear regulators. Because of its high efficiency, the copper traces on the printed circuit board are normally the only heat sinking needed. A standard series of inductors optimized for use with this regulator are available from several different manufacturers. This feature greatly simplifies the design of switch-mode power supplies.
● Requires only 4 external components
● TTL shutdown capability, low power standby mode
● High efficiency
● Uses readily available standard inductors
● Thermal shutdown and current limit protection
● Green product and no Sb/Br
●This device has limited built-in ESD protection, leads should be shorted together or the device placed in conductive foam during storage or handling to prevent electrostatic damage to the MOS gates.
