Product details
Overview
LM2592HVSX-ADJ/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a monolithic nonsynchronous step-down DC-DC converter IC designed for high-voltage input applications, delivering up to 2 A load current with ±4% output voltage accuracy across line and load, 150-kHz fixed-frequency operation, and input voltage support up to 60 V. It serves as a primary buck regulator in industrial power supplies, battery-powered systems, and distributed power architectures requiring adjustable output from 1.2 V to 57 V.
For engineers reviewing the LM2592HVSX-ADJ/NOPB datasheet, LM2592HVSX-ADJ/NOPB pinout, LM2592HVSX-ADJ/NOPB application, or LM2592HVSX-ADJ/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2-A switch current limit, 90-μA standby quiescent current, ON/OFF control interface, thermal shutdown protection, and compatibility with standard 5-pin TO-220 and DDPAK packages.
Technical Context
The LM2592HVSX-ADJ/NOPB integrates a 150-kHz oscillator, internal frequency compensation, and a 2-A N-channel MOSFET switch with 1.3-V typical saturation voltage. Its feedback loop senses output voltage via an external resistive divider referenced to a precise 1.23-V internal reference, enabling stable regulation across 1.2 V–57 V.
It operates in continuous or discontinuous conduction mode depending on load and inductor value, supports delayed start-up and undervoltage lockout via the ON/OFF pin, and features two-stage current limiting plus thermal shutdown for fault protection - all without requiring external timing components.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for LM2592HVSX-ADJ/NOPB?
The LM2592HVSX-ADJ/NOPB has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 63 V, with recommended operating range from 4.5 V to 60 V. Operation above 60 V risks exceeding safe operating area limits and may trigger internal protection circuits. For sustained 60-V operation, ensure adequate PCB copper area and thermal management per TI's thermal metrics for the NDH package.
How does the feedback pin (Pin 4) function in LM2592HVSX-ADJ/NOPB?
The feedback pin of LM2592HVSX-ADJ/NOPB senses the output voltage via an external resistor divider and compares it to an internal 1.23-V reference. Its bias current is ≤50 nA, minimizing divider error. When used with a feedforward capacitor (CFF), it adds phase lead for stability at high output voltages - but requires a Schottky clamp diode to ground if input exceeds 40 V to prevent negative voltage spikes.
Can LM2592HVSX-ADJ/NOPB be used in a positive-to-negative inverting configuration?
Yes, LM2592HVSX-ADJ/NOPB supports positive-to-negative conversion by bootstrapping the ground pin to the negative output. The regulator regulates the inverted voltage via the feedback network. Maximum input+|output| voltage must remain ≤60 V; peak switch current must stay below 2.3 A minimum current limit. External diodes and careful layout are required for stability and noise isolation.
What is the purpose of the ON/OFF pin (Pin 5) on LM2592HVSX-ADJ/NOPB?
The ON/OFF pin of LM2592HVSX-ADJ/NOPB provides logic-level enable/disable control: driving it ≥2 V places LM2592HVSX-ADJ/NOPB in shutdown mode (IQ ≈90 μA), while leaving it floating or pulling it ≤0.6 V enables normal operation. It supports delayed start-up, undervoltage lockout, and system-level power sequencing - with input current <15 μA in either state.
Does LM2592HVSX-ADJ/NOPB require external compensation components?
No, LM2592HVSX-ADJ/NOPB includes internal frequency compensation optimized for standard buck configurations using typical inductor and capacitor values. No external compensation network is needed for stable operation with recommended external components (e.g., 33–47 μH inductor, 220 μF output capacitor). Layout and component ESR remain critical for loop stability, especially when using low-ESR ceramic outputs.
