Product details
Overview
LM2576TV-005 from onsemi is a monolithic 3.0 A, 5.0 V fixed-output step-down (buck) switching regulator in TO-220 package. It operates from 7.0 V to 40 V input, delivers ±4% output voltage accuracy over line/load/temperature, features 52 kHz internal oscillator, cycle-by-cycle current limiting, thermal shutdown, and TTL-compatible ON/OFF control - used in industrial power supplies and embedded DC-DC conversion.
For engineers reviewing the LM2576TV-005 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include guaranteed 3.0 A output current, fixed 5.0 V output with ±4% tolerance, TO-220 thermal performance (RJC = 5.0 °C/W), 80 µA standby current, and compatibility with standard off-the-shelf inductors (e.g., 100 µH Pulse PE-92108).
Technical Context
The LM2576TV-005 integrates a 3.0 A NPN switch, 1.235 V bandgap reference, error amplifier, 52 kHz oscillator, and thermal/current protection circuitry. Its fixed-output architecture eliminates external feedback resistors, simplifying design while maintaining regulation across −40 °C to +125 °C junction temperature.
It implements voltage-mode PWM control with fixed frequency operation and automatic frequency foldback (to ~18 kHz) during overload or short-circuit events - reducing average power dissipation without external components. The internal switch saturation voltage is 1.5 V (typ) at 3.0 A, enabling high efficiency (>77% at 12 VIN/3.0 A) without heatsink under moderate loads.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5.0 V ±4% over full line/load/temperature range - ensures stable logic supply without trimming. |
| Max Output Current | 3.0 A continuous - supports single-rail microcontroller, FPGA I/O, or sensor subsystems without external current boosting. |
| Input Voltage Range | 7.0 V to 40 V - accommodates 12 V/24 V industrial buses and battery-derived inputs with margin. |
| Oscillator Frequency | 52 kHz ±10% (±2% from 0 °C to 125 °C) - enables use of low-cost, high-saturation-current inductors with minimal EMI filtering. |
| Standby Quiescent Current | 80 µA typical at 25 °C - allows low-power shutdown mode for battery-backed systems. |
| Thermal Resistance (Junction-to-Case) | 5.0 °C/W - supports direct heatsink mounting via Pin 3 (GND/Heatsink tab) for >2 W dissipation without PCB copper pour. |
| Protection Features | Cycle-by-cycle current limiting + thermal shutdown - prevents damage during output shorts or overloads without external sensing. |
Pinout & Package
LM2576TV-005 uses TO-220 package (Case 314B), with heatsink surface electrically connected to Pin 3 (GND). The 5-pin configuration supports direct mounting to metal chassis or heatsinks for thermal management.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - Vin | Positive input supply | Accepts 7–40 V unregulated DC; requires local 100 µF low-ESR capacitor to suppress switching transients. |
| 2 - Output | Emiter of internal NPN switch | Delivers regulated 5.0 V; PCB copper area must be minimized to reduce EMI coupling into sensitive analog circuits. |
| 3 - GND | Circuit ground / Heatsink connection | Common return path and thermal interface; must be connected to large copper plane or external heatsink for thermal performance. |
| 4 - Feedback | Regulation sense input | Internally tied to 5.0 V output divider; not accessible in fixed-version - no external resistor network required. |
| 5 - ON/OFF | TTL-compatible enable/disable control | Logic-high (>2.2 V) disables regulator, reducing input current to 80 µA; open or logic-low enables operation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fixed 5.0 V output | Eliminates external feedback resistors - reduces BOM count and layout sensitivity vs. adjustable versions. |
| 3.0 A guaranteed output | Supports high-current digital loads (e.g., ARM Cortex-M7 SoCs, multi-channel ADCs) without derating or parallel devices. |
| 52 kHz fixed-frequency operation | Enables predictable EMI spectrum and compatibility with low-cost, high-current inductors (e.g., Pulse PE-92108, 100 µH). |
| TTL shutdown capability | Allows system-level power sequencing and sleep-mode control using standard logic signals - no level-shifting needed. |
| Integrated thermal/current protection | Self-protecting under fault conditions - no external circuitry required for safe operation in harsh environments. |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Power Supply | Embedded Microcontroller Board |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM2576T-5.0 | Same electrical specs, but TO-220 Case 314D (no heatsink tab connection to Pin 3); RJA = 65 °C/W vs. 65 °C/W for TV suffix. | Limited thermal performance in high-ambient or sealed enclosures due to lack of direct heatsink interface. | Select LM2576TV-005 when direct heatsink mounting or >2 W continuous dissipation is required. |
| MP1584EN-LF-Z | 3 A synchronous buck, 2 MHz switching, smaller SOIC-8 package; no integrated catch diode required. | Higher efficiency at light loads and smaller footprint, but requires careful layout for EMI and lacks built-in thermal shutdown latch. | Choose MP1584EN-LF-Z for space-constrained designs needing >90% efficiency above 500 mA; retain LM2576TV-005 for ruggedness and ease of thermal management. |
Compared with LM2576T-5.0, LM2576TV-005 offers superior thermal path via Pin 3 heatsink connection, while MP1584EN-LF-Z trades robustness and simplicity for higher frequency and synchronous rectification - making LM2576TV-005 optimal for industrial environments where reliability and thermal margin outweigh size constraints.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for LM2576TV-005?
The LM2576TV-005 has an absolute maximum input voltage of 45 V, with recommended operating range of 7.0 V to 40 V. Exceeding 45 V risks permanent damage. For automotive applications with load dump transients, external clamping (e.g., TVS diode) is advised even though the device withstands brief 45 V peaks per datasheet limits.
Does LM2576TV-005 require an external catch diode?
Yes, LM2576TV-005 requires an external Schottky catch diode (e.g., MBR360 or 1N5822) connected between Pin 2 (Output) and Pin 3 (GND). The internal switch is NPN-based and non-synchronous; omitting the diode causes catastrophic failure during switch-off transitions due to inductive kickback.
Can LM2576TV-005 be used in adjustable-output configurations?
No - LM2576TV-005 is a fixed 5.0 V output variant. Its feedback node (Pin 4) is internally connected to the output divider and not accessible. To achieve adjustable output, use LM2576ADJ with external R1/R2 resistors; the TV-005 cannot be reconfigured without hardware modification.
What thermal performance can be expected from LM2576TV-005 in TO-220 package?
With Pin 3 (GND/heatsink tab) mounted to a 10 cm² aluminum heatsink, LM2576TV-005 sustains 3.0 A output at 12 VIN with junction temperature <100 °C at 25 °C ambient. Its RJC = 5.0 °C/W enables >2.5 W continuous dissipation before thermal shutdown activates - significantly exceeding LM2576T-5.0's capability.
Is LM2576TV-005 RoHS and REACH compliant?
Yes, LM2576TV-005 is offered in Pb-free (RoHS-compliant) packaging per onsemi's product change notices. The TO-220 package carries Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 1 - unlimited floor life at ≤30 °C/85% RH - eliminating bake requirements prior to assembly.
