LM2594HVM-ADJ

The LM2594 regulator is monolithic integrated circuit ideally suited for easy and convenient design of a step−down switching regulator (buck converter). It is capable of driving a 0.5 A load with excellent line and load regulation. This device is available in adjustable output version. It is internally compensated to minimize the number of external components to simplify the power supply design.Since LM2594 converter is a switch−mode power supply, its efficiency is significantly higher in comparison with popular three−terminal linear regulators, especially with higher input voltages.
The LM2594 operates at a switching frequency of 150 kHz thus allowing smaller sized filter components than what would be needed with lower frequency switching regulators. Available in a standard 8−Lead PDIP and 8−Lead Surface Mount packages.
The other features include a guaranteed 4% tolerance on output voltage within specified input voltages and output load conditions, and 15% on the oscillator frequency. External shutdown is included, featuring 50 A (typical) standby current. Self protection features include switch cycle−by−cycle current limit for the output switch, as well as thermal shutdown for complete protection under fault conditions.
