The LM2675 series of regulators are
monolithic integrated DC-DC converter circuits built with a LMDMOS process. These
regulators provide all the active functions for a step-down (buck) switching
regulator, capable of driving a 1A load current with excellent line and load
regulation. These devices are available in fixed output voltages of 3.3V, 5V, 12V,
and an adjustable output version.
Requiring a minimum number of external
components, these regulators are simple to use and include patented internal
frequency compensation and a fixed frequency oscillator.
The LM2675 series operates at a
switching frequency of 260kHz, thus allowing smaller-sized filter components than
what is needed with lower frequency switching regulators. Because of the very high
efficiency (> 90%), the copper traces on the printed-circuit board are the only
heat sinking needed.
A family of standard inductors for use
with the LM2675 are available from several different manufacturers. This feature
greatly simplifies the design of switch-mode power supplies using these advanced
ICs. Also included in the data sheet are selector guides for diodes and capacitors
designed to work in switch-mode power supplies.
Other features include ±1.5%-tolerance
on output voltage within specified input voltages and output load conditions, and
±10% on the oscillator frequency. External shutdown is included, featuring typically
50µA stand-by current. The output switch includes current limiting, as well as
thermal shutdown for full protection under fault conditions.
