Product details
Overview
LM2575D2T-15R4 from onsemi is a monolithic step-down (buck) switching regulator IC delivering 1.0 A output current with fixed 15 V output, 52 kHz internal oscillator, ±4% output voltage tolerance over line/load/temperature, and integrated thermal shutdown and cycle-by-cycle current limiting. It operates from 18 V to 40 V input and is used in battery charger power supplies and industrial DC-DC conversion stages.
For engineers reviewing the LM2575D2T-15R4 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page provides verified technical context, package mapping, real-world design meaning of key specs, and two confirmed alternative parts for fixed 15 V buck regulation at 1 A.
Technical Context
The LM2575D2T-15R4 implements a voltage-mode controlled buck converter with an internal 1.0 A NPN switch, 1.235 V bandgap reference, and fixed-frequency 52 kHz oscillator. Its feedback loop uses an external resistor divider only in adjustable versions; the LM2575D2T-15R4 has internal resistors set for 15 V output.
It features TTL-compatible ON/OFF control (1.4 V threshold), 80 µA standby quiescent current, and protection including thermal shutdown and peak-current limiting (1.7–3.2 A range). The device is rated for −40°C to +125°C junction temperature and supports continuous conduction mode operation with standard off-the-shelf inductors.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 15 V ±4% over full line (18–40 V), load (0.2–1.0 A), and temperature (−40°C to +125°C) - ensures stable rail for analog front-ends or motor drivers without external feedback components. |
| Max Output Current | 1.0 A continuous - sufficient to power single-board computers, sensor modules, or LED arrays without external current boosting. |
| Input Voltage Range | 4.75 V to 40 V - supports wide-input industrial 24 V systems and automotive battery-supplied applications with transient tolerance. |
| Oscillator Frequency | 52 kHz ±10% (±2% from 0°C to 125°C) - enables use of low-cost, high-saturation-current toroidal inductors and reduces EMI filtering complexity vs. MHz-range converters. |
| Efficiency | 88% typical at Vin = 18 V, Iout = 1.0 A - minimizes thermal load; eliminates need for heatsink in many PCB layouts with moderate airflow. |
| Quiescent Current | 5.0–9.0 mA active, 15–200 µA in shutdown - enables low-power standby modes in battery-backed systems without compromising wake-up responsiveness. |
| Thermal Resistance | RθJC = 5.0°C/W - allows direct heatsink mounting via exposed tab (Pin 3) for reliable 1 A operation at ambient up to 85°C. |
Pinout & Package
D2PAK (TO-263) package (Case 936A) with exposed metal tab thermally and electrically connected to Pin 3 (GND); heatsink surface must be mounted to system ground plane for thermal and EMI performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1: Vin | Positive input supply | Accepts 4.75–40 V unregulated DC; requires low-ESR 100 µF input capacitor placed within 5 mm to suppress switching transients. |
| 2: Output | Emitter of internal NPN switch | Delivers regulated 15 V; saturation voltage ≤1.2 V at 1.0 A - contributes directly to dropout and efficiency; PCB copper area must be minimized to reduce noise coupling. |
| 3: GND | Circuit ground / heatsink connection | Common return for all internal circuits and thermal path; must be connected to large ground plane or external heatsink for RθJC = 5.0°C/W performance. |
| 4: Feedback | Regulation sense node | Internally tied to 15 V divider; not accessible - no external resistor network required, simplifying layout and eliminating trimming errors. |
| 5: ON/OFF | Logic-enable control input | TTL-compatible: <1.4 V = ON, >2.2 V = OFF; draws ≤30 µA in shutdown - enables microcontroller-controlled power sequencing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fixed 15 V output | Eliminates external feedback resistors - reduces BOM count, layout area, and calibration drift in production. |
| Integrated current limit & thermal shutdown | Protects against short-circuit and overload without external sensing circuitry - enables robust field-deployed power supplies. |
| 52 kHz fixed-frequency operation | Enables use of low-cost, high-current, low-DCR inductors (e.g., 330 µH) and simplifies EMI filter design versus variable-frequency controllers. |
| TTL shutdown with 80 µA standby | Supports low-power sleep states in portable equipment - extends battery life while retaining fast wake-up capability. |
| D2PAK thermal package | Exposed tab bonded to Pin 3 (GND) provides direct thermal path to heatsink - achieves 1.0 A continuous output without forced air. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fixed-output buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM2575HVS-15 | Same pinout, same 15 V output, but rated for 60 V max input (vs. 40 V); higher RθJA (80°C/W) due to TO-220 package. | Suitable for 48 V telecom or PoE-powered systems where input transients exceed 40 V. | Select when input voltage may reach 50–60 V; accept larger thermal footprint and lower efficiency at 1 A. |
| MP1584EN-LF-Z | 3 A output, 1.5 MHz switching, SOIC-8 package; requires external feedback resistors even for 15 V - no fixed-voltage variant. | Better suited for space-constrained, high-density designs needing higher current or faster transient response. | Choose when upgrading current capability or frequency is acceptable; redesign feedback network and layout required. |
Compared with LM2575HVS-15, the LM2575D2T-15R4 offers lower thermal resistance and smaller D2PAK footprint at 40 V max input; compared with MP1584EN-LF-Z, it delivers drop-in simplicity for 15 V fixed output but trades off current headroom and switching speed.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LM2575D2T-15R4?
The LM2575D2T-15R4 has an absolute maximum input voltage of 45 V, but its guaranteed operating range is 18 V to 40 V for the 15 V output version. Operation above 40 V risks exceeding specified line regulation and thermal limits; sustained use beyond 45 V will cause permanent damage to the LM2575D2T-15R4.
Does the LM2575D2T-15R4 require external feedback resistors to set the output voltage?
No. The LM2575D2T-15R4 is a fixed-output variant with internal resistor dividers calibrated for 15 V. Pin 4 (Feedback) is internally connected and not user-accessible - no external resistors are needed, unlike the adjustable LM2575ADJ version. This simplifies layout and improves output accuracy stability over temperature.
Can the LM2575D2T-15R4 be used in a negative-output (inverting) configuration?
Yes. The LM2575D2T-15R4 can be configured as a positive-to-negative buck-boost converter per Figure 1 in the datasheet. In this topology, the fixed 15 V reference enables generation of −15 V output using external diodes and capacitors. However, regulation accuracy and load transient response differ from standard buck mode, and the LM2575D2T-15R4 itself remains a positive-output device.
What thermal management is required for full 1.0 A output from the LM2575D2T-15R4?
At 1.0 A and 18 V input, the LM2575D2T-15R4 dissipates ~3 W. With RθJC = 5.0°C/W and a properly mounted heatsink or 4-layer PCB with ≥4 in² copper pour on the GND plane, junction temperature stays below 125°C at 70°C ambient. No additional heatsink is required if PCB copper area exceeds 10 cm² connected to Pin 3.
Is the LM2575D2T-15R4 RoHS-compliant and halogen-free?
Yes. The LM2575D2T-15R4 is a Pb-free device meeting RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and is halogen-free per J-STD-709. Moisture Sensitivity Level is MSL 1 - unlimited floor life at ≤30°C/85% RH - allowing standard SMT assembly without baking.
