Product details
Overview
LM2575TV-15G from onsemi is a monolithic step-down (buck) switching regulator IC delivering fixed 15 V output at up to 1.0 A, with ±4% output voltage tolerance over line and load, 4.75–40 V input range, and 52 kHz fixed-frequency operation. It integrates a 1.0 A switch, thermal shutdown, cycle-by-cycle current limiting, and TTL-compatible ON/OFF control - used in industrial power supplies and battery charger pre-regulators.
For engineers reviewing the LM2575TV-15G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include guaranteed 1.0 A output current, fixed 15 V output without external feedback resistors, TO-220-5 package with heatsink-connected ground pin, and compatibility with standard off-the-shelf 330 µH inductors and Schottky catch diodes.
Technical Context
The LM2575TV-15G implements a voltage-mode controlled buck converter architecture with an internal 52 kHz oscillator, 1.235 V bandgap reference, and error amplifier driving a 1.0 A NPN switch. Its fixed-output topology eliminates external feedback resistors, simplifying design while maintaining regulation across −40°C to +125°C junction temperature.
Protection features include cycle-by-cycle current limiting (1.4–3.2 A peak), thermal shutdown, and 80 µA standby quiescent current when the ON/OFF pin is pulled high. The device operates with no heatsink required under typical 15 V/1.0 A conditions due to high efficiency (88% at Vin = 18 V, IOUT = 1.0 A).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 15 V ±4% over full line/load/temperature range - eliminates need for feedback resistor network. |
| Max Output Current | 1.0 A DC - supports medium-power loads such as microcontroller subsystems or sensor interfaces without external current boosting. |
| Input Voltage Range | 4.75 V to 40 V - enables direct use with 12 V, 24 V, and 36 V industrial or automotive battery inputs. |
| Switching Frequency | 52 kHz ±10% - allows use of low-cost, widely available 330 µH inductors and reduces EMI filtering complexity vs. MHz-range converters. |
| Efficiency | 88% at Vin = 18 V, IOUT = 1.0 A - significantly reduces thermal dissipation versus linear regulators, often eliminating heatsinks. |
| Quiescent Current | 5.0–9.0 mA active, 15–200 µA standby - enables low-power shutdown mode for energy-sensitive applications. |
| Thermal Resistance | RJC = 5.0 °C/W (TO-220) - enables predictable junction temperature rise with simple heatsinking or PCB copper area. |
Pinout & Package
LM2575TV-15G uses the TO-220-5 (Case 314B) package with heatsink surface electrically connected to Pin 3 (GND). The tab must be thermally and electrically tied to system ground for optimal thermal performance and noise immunity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - Vin | Positive input supply | Accepts 4.75–40 V unregulated DC; requires local 100 µF low-ESR input capacitor to suppress switching transients. |
| 2 - Output | Emitter of internal NPN switch | Delivers regulated 15 V; saturation voltage ≤1.3 V ensures low conduction loss; PCB copper area must be minimized to reduce EMI coupling. |
| 3 - GND | Circuit ground / heatsink connection | Common return for all internal circuits; metal tab is electrically tied to this pin - must be soldered to large ground plane or heatsink. |
| 4 - Feedback | Regulation sense input | Internally connected to 15 V divider; left unconnected in fixed-output versions - not used externally. |
| 5 - ON/OFF | TTL-compatible enable/disable control | Logic-high (>2.2 V) disables regulator, reducing input current to ~80 µA; logic-low (<1.2 V) enables operation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fixed 15 V output | Eliminates external feedback resistors, reducing BOM count and layout sensitivity while ensuring stable 15 V compliance per JEDEC specs. |
| Integrated 1.0 A switch | Reduces external component count to only four: input cap, output cap, inductor, and catch diode - accelerates prototyping and lowers cost. |
| 52 kHz fixed frequency | Enables use of low-cost, high-saturation-current toroidal or shielded drum-core inductors (e.g., Renco RL1952, Pulse PE-52627) without frequency drift concerns. |
| TTL shutdown capability | Supports microcontroller-driven power sequencing with <200 µA standby current - critical for battery-powered or low-power sleep modes. |
| Thermal + current protection | Self-protecting under overload or short-circuit: cycle-by-cycle current limit prevents MOSFET failure; thermal shutdown halts operation above 150°C junction. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for LM2575TV-15G?
The absolute maximum input voltage for LM2575TV-15G is 45 V, but the recommended operating maximum is 40 V per the datasheet's Operating Ratings. Exceeding 40 V risks violating safe operating area limits, especially under high ambient temperature or heavy load conditions. LM2575TV-15G maintains regulation from 4.75 V to 40 V, making it suitable for 24 V and 36 V industrial bus applications.
Does LM2575TV-15G require external feedback resistors?
No, LM2575TV-15G is a fixed-output version with internal resistor divider set for 15 V - Pin 4 (Feedback) is not connected externally and must remain unpopulated. This eliminates resistor tolerance errors and layout sensitivity, distinguishing it from the adjustable LM2575ADJ variant. LM2575TV-15G delivers 15 V ±4% across full line, load, and temperature ranges without any external programming components.
Can LM2575TV-15G be used in automotive applications?
Yes, LM2575TV-15G meets key automotive requirements: it operates from −40°C to +125°C junction temperature, withstands input transients up to 40 V (covering ISO 7637-2 pulse 5a), and is available in NCV2575 variants qualified to AEC-Q100. While LM2575TV-15G itself is not AEC-Q100 certified, its onsemi manufacturing process and robust thermal/current protection make it widely deployed in non-safety-critical automotive subsystems like infotainment power rails and body control modules.
What inductor value is recommended for LM2575TV-15G?
The standard inductor value for LM2575TV-15G is 330 µH, optimized for 1.0 A output and 52 kHz operation per Figure 20 of the datasheet. Recommended part numbers include Renco RL1952, Pulse PE-52627, and Coilcraft DO5022P-334. Inductor saturation current must exceed 1.5 A to accommodate peak currents during startup and transient load steps - LM2575TV-15G's internal current limit triggers at 1.4–3.2 A depending on temperature.
How does the ON/OFF pin function on LM2575TV-15G?
The ON/OFF pin (Pin 5) enables TTL-compatible shutdown: applying ≥2.2 V disables the internal switch, reducing total input current to ~80 µA; applying ≤1.2 V enables normal operation. The pin has low input current (<30 µA), allowing direct drive from microcontrollers or logic gates without buffering. LM2575TV-15G remains fully functional across −40°C to +125°C, with threshold voltages specified over full temperature range.
