Product details
Overview
LM2576D2TR4-3.3G from onsemi is a monolithic 3.0 A, 52 kHz fixed-frequency step-down (buck) switching regulator with fixed 3.3 V output, designed for high-efficiency DC-DC conversion in industrial and embedded power supplies. It operates from 7.0 V to 40 V input, delivers ±4% output voltage tolerance over line/load/temperature, and integrates thermal shutdown and cycle-by-cycle current limiting. Used in on-card power rails requiring compact, heatsink-free operation.
For engineers reviewing the LM2576D2TR4-3.3G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include guaranteed 3.0 A output current, 52 kHz oscillator frequency, ON/OFF logic control with 80 µA standby current, and D2PAK (TO-263) package thermal performance with RJC = 5.0 °C/W.
Technical Context
The LM2576D2TR4-3.3G implements a voltage-mode controlled buck topology with internal 1.235 V bandgap reference, error amplifier, 52 kHz oscillator, and 1.0 A NPN switch driver. Its feedback loop senses output voltage directly at Pin 4 for fixed-output variants, eliminating external resistor networks.
Protection architecture includes cycle-by-cycle peak current limiting (typ. 5.8 A at 25 °C), thermal shutdown activation at TJ ≥ 150 °C, and TTL-compatible ON/OFF control (VIL ≤ 1.2 V, VIH ≥ 2.2 V) enabling low-power standby mode with 80 µA quiescent current.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3 V ±4% over −40 °C to +125 °C, 6.0–40 V input, 0.5–3.0 A load - ensures stable logic rail supply without trimming. |
| Max Output Current | Guaranteed 3.0 A continuous - supports mid-power microcontrollers, FPGAs, and interface ICs without external current boosting. |
| Oscillator Frequency | 52 kHz (±10% over temp) - enables use of low-cost, high-saturation-current off-the-shelf inductors (e.g., 100 µH Pulse PE-92108). |
| Input Voltage Range | 7.0 V to 40 V - accommodates 12 V/24 V industrial buses and automotive battery variations with dropout headroom. |
| Efficiency | 75% at 12 VIN, 3.0 AOUT - reduces thermal load vs. linear regulators, often eliminating heatsinks in <10 W applications. |
| Standby Current | 80 µA typical at VON/OFF = 5 V - enables ultra-low-power system sleep modes without auxiliary LDOs. |
| Thermal Resistance | RJC = 5.0 °C/W - allows direct heatsink mounting to Pin 3 (GND) for reliable 3 A operation up to +125 °C ambient. |
Pinout & Package
D2PAK (TO-263-5) package with exposed thermal pad (terminal 6) electrically connected to Pin 3 (GND); requires soldered thermal land for rated current operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1: Vin | Positive input supply | Accepts 7–40 V unregulated DC; requires low-ESR 100 µF input capacitor placed adjacent to minimize switching noise. |
| 2: Output | Emitter of internal NPN switch | Drives inductor; saturation voltage ≤1.8 V at 3 A - contributes to conduction loss and must be routed with minimal copper area to reduce EMI coupling. |
| 3: GND | Circuit ground and thermal path | Common return for all signals; exposed thermal pad (terminal 6) connects here - mandatory for thermal performance and current rating. |
| 4: Feedback | Regulated output voltage sense | Internally referenced to 1.235 V; for fixed 3.3 V version, tied internally - no external resistors required. |
| 5: ON/OFF | Logic-controlled enable/disable | TTL-compatible input; ≤1.2 V = active, ≥2.2 V = shutdown - pulls total input current to 80 µA in off state. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated protection | Thermal shutdown + cycle-by-cycle current limit - eliminates need for external fault-handling circuitry in board-level designs. |
| Low-component count | Only 4 external parts required (inductor, catch diode, input/output capacitors) - accelerates power supply layout and reduces BOM cost. |
| Standard inductor compatibility | Optimized for 52 kHz operation with widely available 100 µH pulse inductors - avoids custom magnetics and simplifies sourcing. |
| Pb-free packaging | D2PAK (Case 936A) with MSL Level 1 - supports lead-free reflow assembly without moisture sensitivity concerns. |
| High efficiency at full load | 75% efficiency at 12 VIN/3.3 VOUT/3 A - cuts power dissipation by >50% versus equivalent linear regulators, easing thermal management. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM2576T-3.3 | TO-220-5 package (Case 314B/D); higher RJA = 65 °C/W; same electrical specs. | Suitable for lower-power or heatsink-equipped designs where PCB space permits larger through-hole footprint. | Select when mechanical constraints favor TO-220 mounting or when legacy board designs require pin-compatible replacement. |
| MP1584EN-LF-Z | 3 A, 1.5 MHz synchronous buck; smaller solution size; requires external compensation; no integrated catch diode. | Better suited for space-constrained portable devices; not drop-in due to different pinout, frequency, and control scheme. | Choose for new designs prioritizing footprint reduction and higher efficiency above 1 A, accepting added design complexity. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LM2576D2TR4-3.3G?
The LM2576D2TR4-3.3G has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 45 V, with recommended operating range of 7.0 V to 40 V. Exceeding 45 V risks permanent damage per the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. For sustained reliability in automotive or industrial environments, design margins should keep transient inputs below 40 V, especially during load dump events.
Does the LM2576D2TR4-3.3G require an external feedback resistor network?
No, the LM2576D2TR4-3.3G is a fixed-output variant with internal resistor divider set to 3.3 V. Pin 4 (Feedback) is internally connected and requires no external components - unlike the adjustable LM2576-ADJ version, which mandates R1/R2 programming resistors.
What thermal management is required for full 3.0 A operation of the LM2576D2TR4-3.3G?
Full 3.0 A operation requires soldering the exposed thermal pad (terminal 6) to a minimum 1.5 cm² copper pour connected to Pin 3 (GND). With this, junction-to-ambient thermal resistance is 70 °C/W. At 12 VIN/3.3 VOUT, power dissipation is ~26 W; ambient temperature must stay ≤65 °C to maintain TJ < 150 °C.
Can the LM2576D2TR4-3.3G be used in a negative-output (buck-boost) configuration?
Yes - the LM2576D2TR4-3.3G datasheet explicitly lists "Positive to Negative Converter (Buck-Boost)" under Applications. When configured as an inverting buck-boost, it generates a regulated −3.3 V output from a positive input, using Pin 2 as switch emitter and Pin 3 as return. Layout must follow Figure 1 guidelines for stability.
What is the purpose of the ON/OFF pin (Pin 5) on the LM2576D2TR4-3.3G?
The ON/OFF pin enables logic-controlled shutdown: ≤1.2 V activates regulation; ≥2.2 V disables the internal switch and reduces total input current to 80 µA typical. This feature supports system-level power sequencing and ultra-low-power sleep modes without removing input voltage.
