Product details
Overview
LM2593HVT-ADJ/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a monolithic non-synchronous step-down DC-DC converter IC delivering up to 2 A output current with ±4% output voltage accuracy over line and load, 150-kHz fixed switching frequency, and input voltage range up to 60 V. It serves as the core regulator in high-voltage industrial power supplies and automotive subsystems requiring robust buck conversion.
For engineers reviewing the LM2593HVT-ADJ/NOPB datasheet, LM2593HVT-ADJ/NOPB pinout, LM2593HVT-ADJ/NOPB application, or LM2593HVT-ADJ/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include its adjustable 1.2–57 V output range, integrated shutdown/soft-start control, out-of-regulation error flag with programmable delay, thermal shutdown, and current-limit protection - all in a TO-263-7 package.
Technical Context
The LM2593HVT-ADJ/NOPB implements a fixed-frequency (150 kHz) current-mode PWM controller with internal compensation, enabling stable operation with minimal external components. Its feedback loop references a precise 1.23 V internal bandgap (±1.5% over temperature), and regulation is maintained via duty-cycle adjustment of an integrated N-channel MOSFET switch.
Functional modes include active regulation, shutdown (90 μA IQ), and soft-start (capacitor-programmable ramp). The device features dual-stage current limiting, thermal shutdown at 150°C junction temperature, and an open-collector error flag with 1.3 V threshold and 3 mA sink capability - all coordinated through dedicated SD/SS, Flag, and Delay pins.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Current | 2 A DC continuous - supports industrial loads without external current boosting. |
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 60 V - enables direct connection to 48 V telecom, 24 V industrial, or automotive battery rails. |
| Output Voltage Range | 1.2 V to 57 V adjustable - set via external resistor divider; no fixed-output variants required. |
| Feedback Reference | 1.23 V ±1.5% - ensures tight output tolerance even under wide temperature and load variation. |
| Switching Frequency | 150 kHz ±15% - allows use of compact, low-cost inductors and capacitors vs. lower-frequency alternatives. |
| Quiescent Current | 90 μA in shutdown - minimizes standby power in always-on systems like telematics or remote sensors. |
| Thermal Protection | Junction shutdown at 150°C - prevents damage during overload or poor heatsinking conditions. |
Pinout & Package
LM2593HVT-ADJ/NOPB is housed in a 7-pin TO-263 (KTW) surface-mount package with exposed thermal pad for enhanced heat dissipation. Package dimensions: 10.10 mm × 8.89 mm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 VIN | Input supply | Accepts 4.5–60 V DC; requires local low-ESR bypass capacitor to handle high di/dt switching currents. |
| 2 Output | Internal switch node | Drives external Schottky diode and inductor; swings between ~VIN−1.3 V and −0.5 V during operation. |
| 3 Flag | Error flag output | Open-collector signal goes low ≤1 V when output drops below 95% of target; sinks up to 3 mA. |
| 4 Ground | Power and signal reference | Common return for input/output paths and internal circuitry; must be low-impedance PCB plane. |
| 5 Delay | Flag delay timing | Capacitor-connected pin sets power-up delay before Flag asserts high; charged by 3 μA internal current source. |
| 6 Feedback | Voltage sense input | Compares divided output voltage against 1.23 V reference; determines regulation point for adjustable output. |
| 7 SD/SS | Shutdown/Soft-start control | Drives low (≤0.6 V) for shutdown (90 μA IQ); capacitor here enables controlled output voltage ramp-up. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Adjustable output voltage | 1.2 V to 57 V via two-resistor divider - eliminates need for multiple fixed-output SKUs in BOM. |
| Integrated error flag with delay | Programmable power-good assertion timing - enables sequenced system startup and fault isolation. |
| Shutdown and soft-start | Single-pin control (SD/SS) with 90 μA standby and capacitor-programmable ramp - simplifies power sequencing. |
| Thermal and current protection | Two-stage current limit + 150°C junction shutdown - ensures safe operation under short-circuit or overload. |
| High-efficiency buck topology | Up to 81% efficiency at 5 V output (VIN = 12 V, IOUT = 2 A) - reduces thermal load and improves system energy budget. |
Applications
| Industrial Power Supply | Automotive Body Control Module |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM2596HV-ADJ | Higher 3 A output current; same 60 V input and 150 kHz frequency; larger TO-220-5 package. | Better suited for higher-current loads but lacks Flag and Delay pins - no built-in power-good signaling. | Select when >2 A output is needed and error flag functionality is not required. |
| TPS54202DRT | Synchronous 2 A buck with 4.5–28 V input; 500 kHz switching; smaller 8-pin SOIC package; no error flag. | Optimized for space-constrained, medium-input-voltage designs; lacks high-voltage capability and supervision features. | Select for compact 12–24 V systems where footprint and efficiency outweigh high-voltage tolerance and fault reporting. |
Compared with LM2596HV-ADJ and TPS54202DRT, the LM2593HVT-ADJ/NOPB uniquely combines 60 V input rating, integrated error flag with delay, and TO-263 thermal performance - making it the only choice for ruggedized, high-voltage applications requiring power-good monitoring and reliable fault detection.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for LM2593HVT-ADJ/NOPB?
The LM2593HVT-ADJ/NOPB has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 63 V and a recommended operating range of 4.5 V to 60 V. This 60 V upper limit enables direct use with 48 V industrial buses and automotive systems subject to load-dump transients. Exceeding 63 V risks permanent damage per the Absolute Maximum Ratings table in the datasheet.
How is the output voltage set on LM2593HVT-ADJ/NOPB?
The LM2593HVT-ADJ/NOPB uses a resistor divider network connected between output, feedback (Pin 6), and ground to set the output voltage. With a precise 1.23 V internal reference, the formula is VOUT = 1.23 V × (1 + R1/R2). Typical designs use R2 = 1 kΩ and calculate R1 accordingly - e.g., 5 V output requires R1 ≈ 3.06 kΩ (1% tolerance).
Does LM2593HVT-ADJ/NOPB include thermal protection?
Yes, the LM2593HVT-ADJ/NOPB incorporates thermal shutdown that activates at approximately 150°C junction temperature. When triggered, the device halts switching and enters a safe state until the die cools below the hysteresis threshold (~135°C). This feature is fully integrated and requires no external components, protecting against sustained overload or inadequate heatsinking.
What is the purpose of the Delay pin (Pin 5) on LM2593HVT-ADJ/NOPB?
The Delay pin (Pin 5) on LM2593HVT-ADJ/NOPB controls the time interval between output regulation and assertion of the high signal on the Flag pin (Pin 3). A capacitor connected here is charged by a 3 μA internal current source; Flag goes high when the capacitor voltage exceeds 1.3 V. This provides programmable power-good delay for system sequencing without external timers.
Can LM2593HVT-ADJ/NOPB operate in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM)?
Yes, the LM2593HVT-ADJ/NOPB operates in both continuous and discontinuous conduction modes depending on load current and inductor value. At light loads (<~300 mA with typical 33 µH inductor), the inductor current falls to zero each cycle - entering DCM. The datasheet includes load transient waveforms and efficiency curves for both modes, confirming stable regulation across the full 0–2 A range.
