LM2596
SIMPLE SWITCHER® Power Converter 150 kHz
3A Step-Down Voltage Regulator
General Description
The LM2596 series of regulators are monolithic integrated
circuits that provide all the active functions for a step-down
(buck) switching regulator, capable of driving a 3A load with
excellent line and load regulation. These devices are avail-
able in fixed output voltages of 3.3V, 5V, 12V, and an adjust-
able output version.
Requiring a minimum number of external components, these
regulators are simple to use and include internal frequency
compensation, and a fixed-frequency oscillator.
The LM2596 series operates at a switching frequency of
150 kHz thus allowing smaller sized filter components than
what would be needed with lower frequency switching regu-
lators. Available in a standard 5-lead TO-220 package with
several different lead bend options, and a 5-lead TO-263
surface mount package.
A standard series of inductors are available from several dif-
ferent manufacturers optimized for use with the LM2596 se-
ries. This feature greatly simplifies the design of
switch-mode power supplies.
Other features include a guaranteed ±4% tolerance on out-
put voltage under specified input voltage and output load
conditions, and ±15% on the oscillator frequency. External
shutdown is included, featuring typically 80 µA standby cur-
rent. Self protection features include a two stage frequency
reducing current limit for the output switch and an over tem-
perature shutdown for complete protection under fault condi-
tions.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings indicate conditions for which the device is in-
tended to be functional, but do not guarantee specific performance limits. For guaranteed specifications and test conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics.
Note 2: The human body model is a 100 pF capacitor discharged through a 1.5k resistor into each pin.
Note 3: Typical numbers are at 25˚C and represent the most likely norm.
Note 4: All limits guaranteed at room temperature (standard type face) and at temperature extremes (bold type face). All room temperature limits are 100% produc-
tion tested. All limits at temperature extremes are guaranteed via correlation using standard Statistical Quality Control (SQC) methods. All limits are used to calculate
Average Outgoing Quality Level (AOQL).
Note 5: External components such as the catch diode, inductor, input and output capacitors, and voltage programming resistors can affect switching regulator sys-
tem performance. When the LM2596 is used as shown in the Figure 1 test circuit, system performance will be as shown in system parameters section of Electrical
Characteristics.
Note 6: The switching frequency is reduced when the second stage current limit is activated. The amount of reduction is determined by the severity of current over-
load.
Note 7: No diode, inductor or capacitor connected to output pin.
Note 8: Feedback pin removed from output and connected to 0V to force the output transistor switch ON.
Note 9: Feedback pin removed from output and connected to 12V for the 3.3V, 5V, and the ADJ. version, and 15V for the 12V version, to force the output transistor
switch OFF.
Note 10: VIN = 40V.
Note 11: Junction to ambient thermal resistance (no external heat sink) for the TO-220 package mounted vertically, with the leads soldered to a printed circuit board
with (1 oz.) copper area of approximately 1 in2.
Note 12: Junction to ambient thermal resistance with the TO-263 package tab soldered to a single printed circuit board with 0.5 in2 of (1 oz.) copper area.
Note 13: Junction to ambient thermal resistance with the TO-263 package tab soldered to a single sided printed circuit board with 2.5 in2 of (1 oz.) copper area.
Note 14: Junction to ambient thermal resistance with the TO-263 package tab soldered to a double sided printed circuit board with 3 in2 of (1 oz.) copper area on
the LM2596S side of the board, and approximately 16 in2 of copper on the other side of the p-c board. See Application Information in this data sheet and the thermal
model in Switchers Made Simpleversion 4.3 software.
