Product details
Overview
LM2575HVM-12/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a monolithic 1A step-down (buck) switching voltage regulator with fixed 12V output, 60V maximum input voltage rating, 52 kHz fixed-frequency internal oscillator, ±4% output voltage tolerance, and integrated thermal shutdown and cycle-by-cycle current limiting. It replaces linear regulators in industrial power supplies requiring high efficiency and minimal external components.
For engineers reviewing the LM2575HVM-12/NOPB datasheet, LM2575HVM-12/NOPB pinout, LM2575HVM-12/NOPB application, or LM2575HVM-12/NOPB equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, TO-263 package details, real-world use cases, and two validated alternative parts for buck converter design validation and supply continuity planning.
Technical Context
The LM2575HVM-12/NOPB implements a pulse-width modulation (PWM) buck topology with internal NPN switch, fixed 52 kHz oscillator, and voltage-mode control loop. It operates across −40°C to +125°C junction temperature and supports continuous 1A output current with dropout behavior defined by minimum on-time and saturation voltage.
Its HV variant enables operation up to 60V input, making it suitable for unregulated 48V telecom rails or automotive battery-supervised systems. The device requires only four external components-input capacitor, output capacitor, catch diode, and inductor-and integrates frequency compensation, eliminating need for external loop compensation networks.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 12 V ±4% over 0.2–1 A load and 15–60 V input; ensures stable rail for microcontrollers and analog circuitry without feedback resistor network. |
| Input Voltage Range | 4.75 V to 60 V; supports wide-input industrial and automotive applications including 24V/48V bus systems with transient headroom. |
| Output Current | 1 A continuous; sufficient to power FPGA I/O banks, sensor signal chains, or isolated gate drivers without derating at 25°C ambient. |
| Switching Frequency | 52 kHz ±10%; enables use of low-cost, high-saturation-current toroidal inductors and reduces EMI filtering complexity vs. MHz-range converters. |
| Efficiency | 88% at VIN = 15 V, IOUT = 1 A; minimizes thermal load and eliminates need for heatsink in PCB-mounted TO-263 packages under typical loads. |
| Thermal Resistance | θJA = 37°C/W with ≥1 in² copper pour; enables reliable operation at full load without forced air in compact industrial enclosures. |
| Shutdown Current | 50 μA typical; allows low-power standby mode in battery-backed or energy-conscious systems via TTL-compatible ON/OFF pin. |
Pinout & Package
LM2575HVM-12/NOPB is housed in a 5-lead DDPAK/TO-263 surface-mount package (package code KTT0005B), featuring exposed thermal pad for enhanced heat dissipation. Pin 1 is Input, Pin 2 is Output, Pin 3 is Ground, Pin 4 is Feedback (internally tied to 12V divider), and Pin 5 is ON/OFF.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (IN) | Input voltage supply | Accepts 4.75–60 V DC; must be decoupled with ≥47 μF aluminum electrolytic capacitor placed within 5 mm of pin. |
| Pin 2 (OUT) | Regulated output node | Delivers 12 V @ 1 A; connects directly to catch diode anode and output capacitor; trace width must support ≥1.5 A RMS current. |
| Pin 3 (GND) | Power and signal reference | Common return for internal switch, control circuitry, and external components; requires low-inductance connection to thermal pad and system ground plane. |
| Pin 4 (FEEDBACK) | Voltage sense input | Internally connected to 12V resistive divider; not user-accessible-no external resistor network required for fixed-output operation. |
| Pin 5 (ON/OFF) | Enable/disable control | TTL-compatible logic input: <0.8 V disables regulator (50 μA standby); >2.2 V enables normal operation; open-circuit defaults to ON. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated thermal shutdown | Activates at ~160°C junction temperature and latches off until thermal recovery, protecting PCB and adjacent components during overload or poor heatsinking. |
| Cycle-by-cycle current limit | Peak switch current limited to 1.7–3.2 A depending on temperature; prevents inductor saturation and MOSFET failure during short-circuit events. |
| Fixed-frequency PWM control | 52 kHz oscillator eliminates external timing components and simplifies EMI filter design compared to variable-frequency alternatives. |
| Low external part count | Only four passive components required (CIN, COUT, L, D1)-reduces BOM cost, layout area, and qualification effort for Class B industrial designs. |
| High-voltage input capability | 60 V absolute max input enables direct interface with 48 V PoE++ injectors, solar charge controllers, or legacy telecom rectifiers without pre-regulation. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM2575T-12 | TO-220 through-hole package; θJA = 45°C/W (no thermal pad); same electrical specs and pinout but higher thermal resistance. | Suitable for prototyping or low-volume assemblies where manual soldering or socketing is preferred; not recommended for high-density automated PCBs. | Select LM2575T-12 only when mechanical mounting constraints prohibit surface-mount packages or when thermal load is below 0.7 A continuous. |
| MP1584EN-LF-Z | 40V max input; 1.5A output; 1.5 MHz switching; requires external compensation; smaller solution size but higher EMI sensitivity. | Better suited for space-constrained consumer electronics; lacks HV rating and automotive-grade thermal robustness of LM2575HVM-12/NOPB. | Choose MP1584EN-LF-Z only when board area is critical and input never exceeds 40V; verify conducted/radiated emissions with actual layout. |
Compared with LM2575T-12, the LM2575HVM-12/NOPB offers superior thermal performance in SMT layouts, while MP1584EN-LF-Z trades input voltage headroom and ruggedness for higher frequency and smaller magnetics-making LM2575HVM-12/NOPB optimal for industrial 48V systems demanding reliability over miniaturization.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for LM2575HVM-12/NOPB?
The LM2575HVM-12/NOPB supports a maximum input voltage of 60 V, as specified in its Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This HV rating distinguishes it from standard LM2575 variants (45 V max) and enables direct use with 48 V systems subject to load dump or surge conditions. Operation above 60 V risks permanent damage to the internal NPN switch.
Does LM2575HVM-12/NOPB require external feedback resistors?
No, the LM2575HVM-12/NOPB is a fixed-output version with internal resistor divider set for 12 V. Pin 4 (FEEDBACK) is not accessible externally and must remain unconnected. Adding external resistors will disrupt regulation and is incompatible with the LM2575HVM-12/NOPB's internal architecture.
What package type does LM2575HVM-12/NOPB use, and how is thermal performance achieved?
The LM2575HVM-12/NOPB uses a 5-lead DDPAK/TO-263 package (KTT0005B) with an exposed thermal pad. Its θJA is 37°C/W when mounted on ≥1 in² of PCB copper, enabling full 1 A output without a heatsink. Proper soldering of the thermal pad to inner-layer copper planes is essential to realize this spec.
Can LM2575HVM-12/NOPB be used in automotive applications?
Yes-the LM2575HVM-12/NOPB operates from −40°C to +125°C junction temperature and withstands 60 V input, meeting key requirements for automotive body electronics. Its integrated thermal shutdown and current limiting provide protection against load dump (ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a) when combined with appropriate input filtering.
What is the typical efficiency of LM2575HVM-12/NOPB at full load?
LM2575HVM-12/NOPB achieves 88% efficiency at VIN = 15 V and IOUT = 1 A, as measured per the test circuit in the official datasheet (SNVS106E). Efficiency rises to ~90% at lighter loads and decreases slightly at higher input voltages due to increased switching losses.
