Product details
Overview
LM2576HVSX-ADJ/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a non-synchronous step-down DC-DC converter IC designed for high-input-voltage industrial and embedded power supplies. It delivers up to 3 A output current, supports 40 V to 60 V input range (HV version), provides adjustable output from 1.23 V to 37 V (±4% tolerance), and operates at a fixed 52 kHz switching frequency with TTL-compatible ON/OFF control. It is used in motor drives and test equipment where robust buck regulation replaces linear regulators.
For engineers reviewing the LM2576HVSX-ADJ/NOPB datasheet, LM2576HVSX-ADJ/NOPB pinout, LM2576HVSX-ADJ/NOPB application, or LM2576HVSX-ADJ/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include its 60 V max input rating, 3-A continuous output capability, thermal shutdown and cycle-by-cycle current limiting, TO-263-5 (KTT) package with exposed thermal pad, and compatibility with standard off-the-shelf inductors.
Technical Context
The LM2576HVSX-ADJ/NOPB integrates a 3-A NPN switch, fixed-frequency 52 kHz oscillator, error amplifier, bandgap reference (1.23 V), and thermal shutdown circuitry in a monolithic buck regulator architecture. Its feedback pin senses voltage via external resistor divider, enabling precise output adjustment across 1.23–37 V while maintaining ±4% regulation over line and load.
It operates in discontinuous or continuous conduction mode depending on load and inductor value, uses cycle-by-cycle peak current limiting (ICL = 4.2–6.9 A typical), and enters low-power shutdown (<200 µA standby) when ON/OFF pin exceeds 1.4 V. The internal switch saturation voltage is 1.4–2.0 V at 3 A, directly impacting efficiency at low output voltages.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 40 V to 60 V - supports wide industrial input rails including 48 V telecom and unregulated rectified AC supplies. |
| Output Current | 3 A continuous - sufficient for powering microcontrollers, sensors, and small motors without external current boosting. |
| Output Voltage Range | 1.23 V to 37 V (adjustable) - set by external resistor divider; 1.23 V reference enables precision low-voltage outputs. |
| Switching Frequency | 52 kHz (±10%) - fixed internal oscillator simplifies EMI filtering and avoids external timing components. |
| Feedback Reference Voltage | 1.23 V (±4%) - stable bandgap reference determines output accuracy and temperature drift performance. |
| Standby Quiescent Current | 50 µA typical - enables ultra-low-power shutdown for battery-backed or energy-sensitive systems. |
| Thermal Resistance (RθJA) | 42.6 °C/W (KTT package, JEDEC 4-layer board) - dictates heatsink requirements and maximum ambient operating temperature. |
Pinout & Package
LM2576HVSX-ADJ/NOPB uses the KTT (DDPAK/TO-263-5) surface-mount package with an exposed thermal pad connected internally to GND. Body size is 10.16 mm × 8.42 mm. Thermal pad must be soldered to PCB copper pour for effective heat dissipation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 VIN | Power input | Connects to high-side NPN collector; requires short, low-inductance path to input capacitor to minimize switching noise and voltage spikes. |
| 2 OUTPUT | Switching node | Emitter of internal NPN switch; connects directly to inductor and catch diode cathode - critical for layout EMI control. |
| 3 GROUND | Power and signal reference | Common return for input/output capacitors and feedback network; must tie to thermal pad and minimize loop area with VIN and OUTPUT. |
| 4 FEEDBACK | Regulation sense input | High-impedance input (50 nA bias) monitoring resistor divider midpoint; sets output voltage as VOUT = 1.23 × (1 + R1/R2). |
| 5 ON/OFF | Enable control | TTL-compatible digital input: <1.2 V = active, >1.4 V = shutdown; 50 µA standby current enables simple microcontroller or logic-level control. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 3-A NPN power switch | Eliminates need for external MOSFET and gate driver; reduces BOM count and layout complexity in medium-power buck designs. |
| Cycle-by-cycle current limiting | Protects against overload and short-circuit faults without latch-up; allows safe restart after fault clearance. |
| Thermal shutdown protection | Shuts down at ~150°C junction temperature and auto-recovers upon cooling - prevents permanent damage during sustained overload. |
| Fixed 52-kHz oscillator | Enables predictable EMI profile and simplifies filter design; no external timing components required. |
| Standard inductor compatibility | Works with widely available off-the-shelf shielded power inductors (e.g., 150 µH for 12 V → 5 V @ 3 A), accelerating design cycle. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM2576T-ADJ | TO-220-5 (KC) package; lower max input (40 V); identical electrical specs except RθJA = 32.4 °C/W. | Suitable for lower-voltage 24 V systems where through-hole mounting or simpler heatsinking is preferred. | Select when mechanical constraints favor TO-220 or input voltage stays ≤40 V; not rated for 48 V+ transient environments. |
| LM76003QRNXTQ1 | Synchronous buck; 3.5–60 V input; 3.5 A; 300 kHz–2.2 MHz programmable frequency; integrated high/low-side FETs. | Higher efficiency (>90%), smaller solution size, and automotive AEC-Q100 qualification - but requires more complex layout and external compensation. | Choose for new designs needing higher efficiency, smaller footprint, or automotive compliance; LM2576HVSX-ADJ/NOPB remains optimal for cost-sensitive, legacy-compatible, or thermally relaxed applications. |
Compared with LM2576T-ADJ, LM2576HVSX-ADJ/NOPB offers 20 V higher input rating and surface-mount reliability; compared with LM76003QRNXTQ1, it trades efficiency and integration for simplicity, lower BOM cost, and proven field reliability in industrial power supplies.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for LM2576HVSX-ADJ/NOPB?
The LM2576HVSX-ADJ/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. This HV designation distinguishes it from the standard LM2576 (40 V max) and enables use in 48 V systems with headroom for transients. Exceeding 60 V risks permanent damage.
Can LM2576HVSX-ADJ/NOPB be used to generate 3.3 V output?
Yes, LM2576HVSX-ADJ/NOPB can generate 3.3 V output using an external resistor divider on the FEEDBACK pin. With its 1.23 V internal reference, setting R1 = 1.0 kΩ and R2 = 1.7 kΩ yields VOUT ≈ 1.23 × (1 + 1.0/1.7) ≈ 3.3 V. Output accuracy remains within ±4% under full line/load/temperature conditions per datasheet Section 6.9.
Does LM2576HVSX-ADJ/NOPB require an external diode?
Yes, LM2576HVSX-ADJ/NOPB requires an external catch diode (e.g., 1N5822 or Schottky) connected between the OUTPUT pin and GND. As a non-synchronous buck converter, it lacks an integrated low-side switch; the diode provides the return current path during the switch OFF period and must handle peak currents up to 3 A with adequate reverse voltage rating (≥60 V).
What thermal considerations apply to LM2576HVSX-ADJ/NOPB in the KTT package?
LM2576HVSX-ADJ/NOPB in the KTT (TO-263-5) package has RθJA = 42.6 °C/W on a JEDEC 4-layer board. To maintain TJ ≤ 125°C at 3 A output, PCB copper area under the thermal pad must be maximized - increasing from 0.5 to ≥1.6 in² reduces RθJA to 32 °C/W. Without adequate copper, thermal derating is required above ~1.5 A at 25°C ambient.
How does the ON/OFF pin function on LM2576HVSX-ADJ/NOPB?
The ON/OFF pin on LM2576HVSX-ADJ/NOPB enables TTL-compatible shutdown: voltage <1.2 V activates regulation, while >1.4 V forces shutdown with 50 µA typical standby current. It is not latched - returning to low resumes operation. Leaving the pin floating is prohibited; tie to GND via 10 kΩ resistor for always-on operation or drive with MCU GPIO for controlled power sequencing.
