Product details
Overview
LM2576HVSX-5.0/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a monolithic 3-A non-synchronous step-down DC-DC regulator in TO-263 (DDPAK) package, delivering fixed 5.0 V output with ±4% tolerance over line and load, supporting 8–60 V input, and featuring 52-kHz fixed-frequency operation, TTL-compatible ON/OFF control, and cycle-by-cycle current limiting for motor drives and industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LM2576HVSX-5.0/NOPB datasheet, LM2576HVSX-5.0/NOPB pinout, LM2576HVSX-5.0/NOPB application, or LM2576HVSX-5.0/NOPB equivalent, key selection considerations include its 60-V HV input rating, 3-A continuous output capability, thermal performance on PCB copper planes, and compatibility with standard off-the-shelf inductors in buck converter designs.
Technical Context
The LM2576HVSX-5.0/NOPB implements a fixed-frequency PWM buck topology with internal 52-kHz oscillator, integrated 3-A NPN switch, and voltage-mode error amplifier referenced to a 1.23-V internal bandgap. It operates in continuous conduction mode under full load and transitions to discontinuous mode at light loads without instability.
Its functional architecture includes undervoltage lockout (enabled by VIN ≥ 8 V), cycle-by-cycle peak current limiting (ICL = 4.2–6.9 A), thermal shutdown, and TTL-level ON/OFF pin logic (VIH ≥ 2.2 V for shutdown, VIL ≤ 1.2 V for active). The feedback pin is internally tied to the 5-V output, eliminating external resistor dividers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5.0 V ±4% over full temperature and load range - ensures stable logic supply without external feedback tuning. |
| Input Voltage Range | 8 V to 60 V - supports wide-range industrial, automotive, and telecom inputs including 48-V systems. |
| Continuous Output Current | 3 A - delivers sufficient power for microcontrollers, sensors, and peripheral rails without external current boosting. |
| Oscillator Frequency | 47–58 kHz (typ. 52 kHz) - enables use of low-cost, high-saturation-current inductors and reduces EMI filtering complexity. |
| Standby Quiescent Current | 50 µA (typ.) - allows low-power system sleep modes without significant battery drain. |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJA) | 42.6°C/W (TO-263, 1-in² copper) - defines minimum PCB copper area needed for thermal management at full load. |
| Saturation Voltage (VSAT) | 1.4–2.0 V at 3 A - determines conduction loss and impacts efficiency at low VIN/VOUT ratios. |
| Current Limit Threshold | 4.2–6.9 A (typ. 5.8 A) - provides robust overload protection while allowing startup surge margin. |
Pinout & Package
LM2576HVSX-5.0/NOPB uses the KTT (DDPAK/TO-263-5) surface-mount package with exposed thermal pad connected to GND. Body size is 10.16 mm × 8.42 mm. Thermal performance improves significantly with ≥1 in² PCB copper area connected to the tab.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - VIN | High-side switch collector input | Connects directly to unregulated DC input and input bypass capacitor; requires shortest possible trace to minimize switching noise. |
| 2 - OUTPUT | Switch emitter node | Drives external inductor and catch diode cathode; forms high-frequency switching node requiring tight layout and ground return path. |
| 3 - GROUND | Power and signal reference | Common return for input/output capacitors, feedback, and ON/OFF; must be low-inductance connection to minimize noise coupling. |
| 4 - FEEDBACK | Regulation sense input | Internally connected to 5-V output; no external divider required - simplifies design and eliminates resistor tolerance errors. |
| 5 - ON/OFF | Enable/disable control | TTL-compatible: <1.2 V = active, >2.2 V = shutdown; 50-µA standby current enables direct MCU GPIO control. |
| TAB | Thermal and electrical ground | Exposed metal pad soldered to PCB copper plane for heat dissipation and low-impedance GND path - critical for thermal reliability at 3-A load. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fixed 5-V output with internal feedback | Eliminates external resistor network, reducing BOM count, layout area, and calibration drift over temperature. |
| 60-V maximum input voltage (HV version) | Enables direct regulation from 48-V industrial buses or transient-tolerant 36-V automotive systems without pre-regulation. |
| Requires only four external components | Input cap, output cap, inductor, and catch diode - minimizes design time and failure points in cost-sensitive applications. |
| Cycle-by-cycle current limiting | Prevents switch destruction during short-circuit or overload by clamping peak inductor current to ~5.8 A. |
| TTL-compatible ON/OFF pin | Allows direct interface with 3.3-V or 5-V microcontrollers without level-shifting, enabling precise power sequencing. |
| Thermal shutdown protection | Shuts down regulator when junction temperature exceeds 150°C, preventing permanent damage during sustained overload or poor heatsinking. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM2576SX-5.0/NOPB | Max input voltage limited to 40 V; identical pinout, package, and 5-V output spec. | Suitable for 24-V or lower-input systems; not rated for 48-V bus transients or HV industrial environments. | Select when input never exceeds 40 V and cost sensitivity outweighs HV margin. |
| LM76003QRNTRQ1 | Synchronous 3.5-A converter, 3.5–60-V input, 2.2-MHz switching, integrated high-/low-side FETs. | Higher efficiency (>90%), smaller solution size, but requires more complex layout and external compensation. | Choose for space-constrained, high-efficiency designs where thermal headroom is limited and layout expertise is available. |
Compared with LM2576HVSX-5.0/NOPB, LM2576SX-5.0/NOPB offers identical functionality at lower cost but sacrifices 20-V input headroom, while LM76003QRNTRQ1 delivers superior efficiency and integration at the expense of design simplicity and external component count.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for LM2576HVSX-5.0/NOPB?
The LM2576HVSX-5.0/NOPB has a maximum input voltage rating of 60 V, confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and Recommended Operating Conditions section of the TI datasheet SNVS107G. This HV rating distinguishes it from the standard LM2576 (40 V max) and enables use in 48-V industrial and telecom systems with transient margin. Operation above 60 V risks permanent damage.
Does LM2576HVSX-5.0/NOPB require external feedback resistors?
No, LM2576HVSX-5.0/NOPB does not require external feedback resistors. As a fixed 5.0-V output variant, its FEEDBACK pin is internally connected to the output, eliminating the need for an external resistor divider. This simplifies layout, reduces component count, and avoids tolerance-induced output voltage drift - a key differentiator from the adjustable LM2576HV-ADJ version.
What package type is used by LM2576HVSX-5.0/NOPB?
LM2576HVSX-5.0/NOPB uses the KTT package - a 5-pin DDPAK/TO-263 surface-mount variant with an exposed thermal pad. Its nominal body size is 10.16 mm × 8.42 mm. The thermal pad must be soldered to a PCB copper plane for effective heat dissipation, especially at full 3-A load, as specified in TI's thermal characterization data.
How does the ON/OFF pin function on LM2576HVSX-5.0/NOPB?
The ON/OFF pin on LM2576HVSX-5.0/NOPB provides TTL-compatible enable control: applying <1.2 V activates regulation, while >2.2 V places the device in shutdown mode with 50-µA typical standby current. This allows direct interfacing with microcontroller GPIOs without level shifters. The pin must never be left floating, as undefined logic states may cause erratic behavior or increased quiescent current.
What is the typical efficiency of LM2576HVSX-5.0/NOPB at full load?
LM2576HVSX-5.0/NOPB achieves 77% typical efficiency at VIN = 12 V, VOUT = 5 V, and ILOAD = 3 A, per Section 6.6 of the TI datasheet SNVS107G. Efficiency rises to ~88% at higher input-to-output ratios (e.g., 15 V → 5 V), reflecting its non-synchronous architecture. Actual efficiency depends on external component selection - particularly inductor DCR, diode forward voltage, and capacitor ESR.
