Product details
Overview
LM2595DSADJG from onsemi is a monolithic step-down switching regulator (buck converter) with 1.0 A output current capability, 150 kHz fixed-frequency operation, internal compensation, and adjustable output voltage from 1.23 V to 37 V. It integrates a power switch, oscillator, error amplifier, and protection circuitry in a D2PAK package, designed for high-efficiency DC-DC conversion in space-constrained industrial and embedded power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LM2595DSADJG datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its guaranteed 1.0 A load current, wide 4.5–40 V input range, thermal shutdown and cycle-by-cycle current limiting, and TTL-compatible ON/OFF control with 50 µA standby current.
Technical Context
The LM2595DSADJG implements a voltage-mode controlled buck topology with an internal 150 kHz oscillator and integrated NPN power switch. Its feedback loop is internally compensated via the adjustable output configuration, requiring only two external resistors (R1, R2) to set VOUT = 1.23 V × (1 + R2/R1).
Protection architecture includes thermal shutdown triggered at TJ ≥ 150 °C and peak-current limiting at 1.15–2.6 A, with automatic frequency foldback to ~30 kHz during overload to reduce average dissipation. The ON/OFF pin accepts logic-level signals (VIL ≤ 0.8 V for "on", VIH ≥ 2.2 V for "off") and draws only 50 µA in shutdown.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Current | Guaranteed 1.0 A continuous load current - supports single-rail microcontroller or FPGA core supply without external current boosting. |
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 40 V - enables direct regulation from 12 V/24 V industrial rails or unregulated AC-DC outputs. |
| Switching Frequency | 150 kHz (typ), 120–180 kHz (min–max) - allows use of compact 68 µH inductors and standard electrolytic input/output capacitors. |
| Feedback Reference Voltage | 1.23 V ±4% - sets precise output voltage via external resistor divider; enables 5 V, 3.3 V, or custom rail generation. |
| Standby Quiescent Current | 50 µA (typ) at VON/OFF = 5 V - ensures ultra-low system power consumption during sleep or standby modes. |
| Saturation Voltage | 1.0 V (typ) at IOUT = 1.0 A - defines minimum dropout (VIN − VOUT) required for regulation; impacts efficiency at low VOUT. |
| Thermal Resistance | RθJC = 5.0 °C/W - enables high-power dissipation when mounted to heatsink; RθJA = 70 °C/W (no heatsink). |
Pinout & Package
D2PAK (TO-263) package with exposed heatsink tab electrically connected to Pin 3 (GND). Heatsink surface must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal and EMI performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - Output | Emitter of internal NPN switch | Carries high di/dt switching current; requires minimal PCB copper area to reduce EMI coupling into sensitive analog sections. |
| 2 - Vin | Positive input supply | Must be bypassed with low-ESR capacitor (e.g., 220 µF/50 V) placed adjacent to pin to suppress input transients and supply switching current. |
| 3 - GND | Circuit ground reference | Single-point ground connection for feedback, ON/OFF, and heatsink; critical for stability and noise immunity. |
| 4 - Feedback | Error amplifier inverting input | High-impedance node (IB = 25–200 nA); must be routed short and away from noisy traces to avoid regulation drift. |
| 5 - ON/OFF | Logic-controlled enable/disable | TTL-compatible input (VIL ≤ 0.8 V = ON, VIH ≥ 2.2 V = OFF); pulls total supply current to ~50 µA in shutdown state. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Internal loop compensation | Eliminates need for external compensation network - reduces BOM count and design iteration time for standard buck applications. |
| Thermal shutdown + cycle-by-cycle current limit | Provides fault containment without external sensing - protects IC and downstream circuitry during overloads, shorts, or ambient overheating. |
| Adjustable output (1.23–37 V) | Supports flexible rail generation using only two precision resistors - avoids stocking multiple fixed-output variants. |
| Pb-free D2PAK package (MSL 1) | Enables lead-free reflow assembly without moisture sensitivity concerns - suitable for high-reliability industrial manufacturing. |
| 150 kHz fixed-frequency operation | Ensures predictable EMI profile and simplifies filter design - avoids variable-frequency jitter and associated layout complexity. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM2596S-ADJ | Higher 3.0 A output current; 150 kHz switching; requires external compensation capacitor. | Preferred where >1.0 A load or higher efficiency at light loads is required; larger footprint (TO-263-5 vs. D2PAK-5). | Select LM2596S-ADJ if output current exceeds 1.0 A or if tighter load regulation (< ±0.5%) is needed across temperature. |
| MP1584EN-LF-Z | 2.5 A output; 1.5 MHz switching; requires external compensation; smaller SOIC-8 package. | Better suited for space-constrained designs needing higher frequency and lower output ripple; lacks integrated heatsink pad. | Choose MP1584EN-LF-Z when PCB area is critical and 1.5 MHz operation enables sub-10 µH inductors and ceramic output capacitors. |
Compared with LM2595DSADJG, LM2596S-ADJ offers higher current headroom and improved regulation but demands additional compensation components, while MP1584EN-LF-Z delivers miniaturization and higher frequency at the cost of thermal performance and simplified layout.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LM2595DSADJG?
The LM2595DSADJG has an absolute maximum input voltage rating of 45 V, with recommended operating range from 4.5 V to 40 V. Exceeding 40 V may reduce reliability and lifetime, especially under high ambient temperature or high load conditions. The device's internal protection does not guarantee safe operation beyond the 40 V operating limit specified in the datasheet.
Can the LM2595DSADJG be used to generate a 3.3 V output?
Yes, the LM2595DSADJG can generate a stable 3.3 V output using an external resistor divider on the Feedback pin. With VFB = 1.23 V, selecting R1 = 1.0 kΩ and R2 = 1.69 kΩ yields VOUT = 1.23 V × (1 + 1.69k/1.0k) ≈ 3.3 V. Use 1% metal film resistors for best temperature stability and regulation accuracy.
Does the LM2595DSADJG require an external compensation network?
No, the LM2595DSADJG features internal loop compensation optimized for standard buck configurations. No external compensation capacitor or resistor is needed - only the feedback resistor divider (R1, R2) and standard external components (inductor, catch diode, input/output capacitors) are required for full operation.
What is the purpose of the ON/OFF pin on the LM2595DSADJG?
Pin 5 (ON/OFF) provides logic-level enable/disable control for the LM2595DSADJG. Driving it below 0.8 V enables regulation; driving it above 2.2 V disables the internal switch and reduces total supply current to ~50 µA. This feature supports system-level power sequencing and low-power sleep states without removing input voltage.
How is thermal performance managed in the LM2595DSADJG D2PAK package?
The LM2595DSADJG D2PAK package includes an exposed heatsink tab electrically tied to Pin 3 (GND). For optimal thermal performance, this tab must be soldered to a large PCB copper area (≥ 2 in² of 2-oz copper) acting as a heatsink. With proper mounting, RθJC = 5.0 °C/W enables continuous 2.5 W dissipation without external heatsink.
