Product details
Overview
TL2575-12IKTTR from Texas Instruments is a fixed-output 12-V, 1-A step-down (buck) switching voltage regulator in TO-263-5 (KTT) package. It operates from 15 V to 40 V input, delivers ±4.2% output regulation over line/load/temperature, and integrates a 52-kHz oscillator, cycle-by-cycle current limiting, and thermal shutdown. It serves as the primary DC-DC conversion stage in industrial power supplies requiring high efficiency and minimal external components.
For engineers reviewing the TL2575-12IKTTR datasheet, TL2575-12IKTTR pinout, TL2575-12IKTTR application, or TL2575-12IKTTR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 12-V fixed output with ±4.2% tolerance, 1-A continuous load capability, 88% typical efficiency at 15-VIN/1-A, TTL-compatible ON/OFF control with 50-μA standby current, and TO-263 thermal performance (RθJA = 26.5°C/W).
Technical Context
The TL2575-12IKTTR implements a monolithic buck converter architecture with an integrated 1-A N-channel MOSFET switch, fixed-frequency 52-kHz PWM controller, and internal 1.23-V bandgap reference. Regulation is achieved via feedback of the output voltage to the error amplifier through a direct connection from OUTPUT to FEEDBACK pin - no external resistors required for the fixed 12-V version.
It features cycle-by-cycle current limiting, thermal shutdown triggered at 150°C junction temperature, and a dedicated ON/OFF pin enabling TTL-level shutdown with 50-μA standby quiescent current. The device requires only four external components: input capacitor, output capacitor, catch diode, and power inductor - all standard off-the-shelf parts.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 12 V ±4.2% (11.4–12.6 V) across –40°C to 125°C, 15–40 VIN, 0.2–1 A load - ensures stable rail for microcontrollers and analog circuitry without trimming. |
| Output Current | 1 A continuous - supports single-rail power delivery for mid-power embedded systems without external current boosting. |
| Input Voltage Range | 15 V to 40 V - compatible with 24-V industrial buses and wide-range unregulated supplies, excluding HV variant. |
| Switching Frequency | 52 kHz (typical), 42–63 kHz (full temp range) - enables use of low-cost, high-saturation-current inductors and reduces EMI filtering complexity vs. MHz-class regulators. |
| Efficiency | 88% typical at 15 VIN, 1 A load - minimizes thermal dissipation; eliminates heatsink in most PCB layouts with adequate copper area. |
| Standby Current | 50 μA typical at OFF state - enables low-power sleep modes in battery-backed or energy-conscious systems. |
| Junction Temperature | –40°C to 125°C operating range - qualified for industrial and factory automation environments with extended thermal cycling. |
Pinout & Package
TL2575-12IKTTR is housed in a thermally enhanced TO-263-5 (KTT) surface-mount package (10.16 mm × 8.93 mm body, exposed thermal pad). The 5-pin configuration supports high-current routing and efficient PCB heat spreading.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN (Pin 1) | Unregulated DC input supply | Accepts 15–40 V; requires ≥100 µF low-ESR aluminum electrolytic capacitor placed adjacent to pin for stability and ripple suppression. |
| OUTPUT (Pin 2) | Regulated 12-V output node | Delivers up to 1 A; connects directly to FEEDBACK pin for fixed-voltage operation and to output capacitor (≥330 µF) and inductor. |
| GND (Pin 3) | Power ground reference | Common return for VIN, OUTPUT, and ON/OFF; must be tied to large copper pour under exposed thermal pad for thermal management. |
| FEEDBACK (Pin 4) | Voltage sense input | Internally connected to 12-V output for fixed version; open-circuit or resistor-connected only in adjustable variants - not used externally here. |
| ON/OFF (Pin 5) | TTL-compatible enable/disable control | Pull to GND (≤1 V) for normal operation; apply ≥2.2 V to enter 50-μA standby mode - supports system-level power sequencing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 1-A power switch | Eliminates need for external MOSFET and gate driver - reduces BOM count and layout area while maintaining robust short-circuit protection. |
| Fixed 12-V output with no external resistors | Removes tuning uncertainty and resistor tolerance errors; simplifies design validation and production calibration. |
| 52-kHz fixed-frequency operation | Enables predictable EMI spectrum and compatibility with low-cost, high-current inductors (e.g., 330 µH) without frequency jitter concerns. |
| Cycle-by-cycle current limiting | Prevents destructive overcurrent during startup, overload, or output short - maintains safe operation without latch-off or manual reset. |
| Thermal shutdown with automatic recovery | Halts switching at 150°C junction temperature and resumes when cooled below hysteresis threshold - protects against sustained overloads. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM2575HVS-12 | Higher 60-V max input (HV variant); identical 12-V fixed output, 1-A rating, and TO-263-5 package. | Suitable for 48-V telecom or solar-input systems where input may exceed 40 V transiently. | Select LM2575HVS-12 only if input voltage exceeds 40 V; otherwise TL2575-12IKTTR offers lower cost and same performance at ≤40 V. |
| TPS54202DDCR | 2-A synchronous buck; 4.5–28-V input; 500-kHz switching; requires external compensation; smaller SOT-23-6 package. | Better suited for space-constrained, higher-efficiency designs needing >1 A or <28-V input. | Choose TPS54202DDCR for compact, high-density boards with 12-V output and >1-A demand; TL2575-12IKTTR remains optimal for ruggedized 24-V industrial inputs with minimal component count. |
Compared with LM2575HVS-12 and TPS54202DDCR, TL2575-12IKTTR provides the best balance of rugged 40-V input tolerance, proven thermal reliability in TO-263, and lowest external part count for fixed 12-V industrial power - without requiring compensation design or synchronous layout constraints.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for TL2575-12IKTTR?
The absolute maximum input voltage for TL2575-12IKTTR is 42 V, with recommended operating range from 15 V to 40 V. Exceeding 40 V risks violating recommended conditions and may trigger thermal shutdown or reduce long-term reliability. For 48-V or 60-V input systems, TI's TL2575HV-12IKTTR variant is specified up to 60 V input.
Does TL2575-12IKTTR require external feedback resistors?
No. TL2575-12IKTTR is a fixed-output variant: the FEEDBACK pin is internally connected to the 12-V output stage, so no external resistors are needed. External resistors are only required for the adjustable TL2575-ADJ version. Connecting resistors to TL2575-12IKTTR's FEEDBACK pin would disrupt regulation and is not supported.
What is the thermal resistance (RθJA) of TL2575-12IKTTR in its TO-263 package?
The junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) for TL2575-12IKTTR in the KTT (TO-263-5) package is 26.5°C/W under standard JEDEC 2-layer board conditions. This value assumes proper PCB layout with ≥4 cm² of 2-oz copper connected to the exposed thermal pad - critical to achieving full 1-A output without derating.
Can TL2575-12IKTTR be used in inverting buck-boost configurations?
Yes - the TL2575-12IKTTR datasheet explicitly lists "inverting buck-boost power supplies" among its applications. When configured as an inverter, it generates a negative output (e.g., –12 V) from a positive input. However, the fixed 12-V feedback network is optimized for positive buck operation; inverting use requires careful attention to diode orientation, grounding, and loop stability per Figure 9-2 in the datasheet.
What is the typical efficiency of TL2575-12IKTTR at full 1-A load?
TL2575-12IKTTR achieves 88% typical efficiency at 15-V input and 1-A output load, as measured per the datasheet's electrical characteristics table. Efficiency drops to ~77% at 40-V input due to higher switching losses and duty-cycle limitations, and rises slightly at lighter loads. Real-world efficiency depends on external component selection (e.g., Schottky diode VF, inductor DCR).
