Product details
Overview
LM2575HVT-3.3/LF03 from Texas Instruments is a monolithic 1A step-down (buck) switching voltage regulator with fixed 3.3V output, 60V maximum input voltage rating, 52 kHz fixed-frequency internal oscillator, ±4% output voltage tolerance over line/load/temperature, 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 LM2575HVT-3.3/LF03 datasheet, LM2575HVT-3.3/LF03 pinout, LM2575HVT-3.3/LF03 application, or LM2575HVT-3.3/LF03 equivalent, key selection criteria include its HV input capability (up to 60V), TO-220-5 package thermal performance (θJA = 45°C/W with 4 in² copper), 1A continuous output, TTL-compatible shutdown, and compatibility with standard off-the-shelf inductors.
Technical Context
The LM2575HVT-3.3/LF03 implements a fixed-frequency pulse-width modulation (PWM) buck topology with an integrated N-channel DMOS power switch, internal frequency compensation, and a precision 1.23V feedback reference. Its control loop maintains regulation across 4.75V–60V input while delivering up to 1A at 3.3V with ≤±4% total output error.
It features cycle-by-cycle current limiting (1.7–3.2A peak), thermal shutdown at ~150°C junction temperature, and TTL-level ON/OFF control with 50μA standby current. The device operates in continuous conduction mode (CCM) and supports simple layout with only four external components: input capacitor, output capacitor, catch diode, and inductor.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3V ±4% over 4.75–60V input, 0.2–1A load, −40°C to +125°C |
| Input Voltage Range | 4.75V to 60V - enables direct regulation from 48V telecom, 36V industrial, or unregulated AC/DC rails |
| Output Current | 1A continuous - sufficient for powering microcontrollers, FPGAs, and interface ICs without external pass devices |
| Switching Frequency | 52 kHz fixed - allows use of low-cost, high-saturation-current toroidal inductors (e.g., PE-52627) |
| Efficiency | 75% at 12VIN/3.3VOUT/1A - reduces thermal load vs. linear regulators; no heatsink required with proper PCB copper |
| Shutdown Current | 50 μA typical - enables low-power standby modes in battery-backed or energy-sensitive systems |
| Thermal Resistance | θJA = 45°C/W (TO-220-5, 4 in² copper) - supports 1A operation at ambient up to +85°C without forced air |
| Protection Features | Thermal shutdown, cycle-by-cycle current limit, and safe short-circuit recovery - eliminates need for external fault management circuitry |
Pinout & Package
LM2575HVT-3.3/LF03 is housed in a 5-lead TO-220 package (package code NDH0005D) with exposed tab electrically connected to Pin 2 (Output). The package supports vertical mounting with ½-inch leads soldered to PCB copper area for optimal thermal performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - Input | Main power input | Accepts 4.75–60V DC; requires local 100 μF/75V aluminum electrolytic bypass |
| 2 - Output | Regulated output & thermal pad | Delivers 3.3V/1A; tab must be soldered to ≥4 in² copper pour for θJA = 45°C/W |
| 3 - Ground | Power and signal reference | Single-point ground connection required; ties to input/output capacitor negatives and feedback network |
| 4 - Feedback | Voltage sense input | Internally referenced to 1.23V; unused in fixed-output versions (internally tied to output) |
| 5 - ON/OFF | TTL-compatible enable control | Logic-high (>2.2V) enables regulation; logic-low (<0.8V) disables output and reduces IQ to 50 μA |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High-voltage input support | 60V max input enables single-stage conversion from 48V systems without pre-regulation |
| Minimal external parts count | Only 4 components required: input cap, output cap, Schottky catch diode, and inductor - accelerates design and reduces BOM cost |
| Integrated protection | Thermal shutdown and cycle-by-cycle current limiting prevent damage during overload, short-circuit, or thermal runaway |
| TTL-compatible shutdown | 50 μA standby current and clean output disable allow seamless integration into microcontroller-controlled power sequencing |
| Standard inductor compatibility | Optimized for widely available 330 μH inductors (e.g., PE-52627) - avoids custom magnetics and supply-chain risk |
| Precision output tolerance | ±4% over full line/load/temperature ensures reliable operation of 3.3V logic without post-regulation LDOs |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM2575T-3.3 | 40V max input (vs. 60V), same TO-220-5 package, identical pinout and electrical specs except input rating | Suitable for 24V or lower input systems; not rated for 48V telecom or industrial transients | Select LM2575T-3.3 only when input never exceeds 40V; LM2575HVT-3.3/LF03 provides margin for surge immunity and future-proofing. |
| LM2596S-3.3 | Higher 63V input rating, 150 kHz switching, adjustable soft-start, but requires external compensation and has different pinout | Better ripple/noise performance and higher efficiency at light loads; not drop-in compatible due to different footprint and control scheme | Choose LM2596S-3.3 for new designs prioritizing EMI reduction and tighter load regulation; LM2575HVT-3.3/LF03 offers proven simplicity and legacy design continuity. |
Compared with LM2575T-3.3, LM2575HVT-3.3/LF03 adds 20V input headroom critical for 48V systems, while LM2596S-3.3 trades ease-of-use for higher frequency and improved light-load behavior - making LM2575HVT-3.3/LF03 optimal for rugged, cost-sensitive industrial buck conversion where layout simplicity and surge robustness are paramount.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for LM2575HVT-3.3/LF03?
The LM2575HVT-3.3/LF03 supports a maximum input voltage of 60V, confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the official TI datasheet (SNVS106E). This HV rating distinguishes it from the standard LM2575 series (40V max) and enables direct regulation from 48V telecom or industrial bus voltages without pre-regulation stages. Operation above 60V risks permanent damage.
Does LM2575HVT-3.3/LF03 require an external feedback resistor network?
No, LM2575HVT-3.3/LF03 does not require external feedback resistors. As a fixed-output version, its feedback node (Pin 4) is internally connected to the output, eliminating the need for R1/R2 divider networks. This simplifies layout and improves stability versus adjustable variants - a key design advantage confirmed in the "Fixed Output Voltage Versions" application diagram (Figure 25) of the TI datasheet.
What thermal performance can be expected from LM2575HVT-3.3/LF03 in a TO-220-5 package?
When mounted vertically with ½-inch leads soldered to approximately 4 square inches of PCB copper, LM2575HVT-3.3/LF03 achieves θJA = 45°C/W (per datasheet Section 6.5). This allows full 1A output at ambient temperatures up to +85°C without forced airflow or external heatsinks - a critical advantage over standard TO-220 variants with θJA = 65°C/W.
Can LM2575HVT-3.3/LF03 be used in synchronous rectification configurations?
No, LM2575HVT-3.3/LF03 is not designed for synchronous rectification. It integrates a single N-channel DMOS power switch and requires an external Schottky catch diode (e.g., SR103 or MBR340) as specified in Figure 25 of the TI datasheet. The controller lacks gate-drive outputs for a second MOSFET, and its architecture is optimized for diode-based asynchronous operation.
What is the standby current consumption of LM2575HVT-3.3/LF03 during shutdown?
LM2575HVT-3.3/LF03 draws 50 μA typical quiescent current when the ON/OFF pin (Pin 5) is pulled low (<0.8V), as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table (ISTBY parameter). This ultra-low standby current enables energy-efficient power sequencing in battery-backed or always-on systems - verified across temperature and process corners in TI's production test flow.
