LM2575 Simple switcher 1A step down voltage regulator

The LM2575 circuit is a simple step down dc regulated switching IC that can use to output current of 1A and voltage of 3.3V, 5V, 12V,15V ,and also an adjustable output. We love LM1575/LM2575/LM2575 National Semiconductor it why it is amazing since as step down voltage( Buck dc converter) switching regulator like 78xx series IC. But so well than it. We see a design to take advantaged of advanced circuit techniques, as following.

1. There is fixed voltage output of 3.3V may be use to power supply 3 volts of digital camera AC adapter.
2. Not heat, High effciency so use a smaller heat sink.
3. Output current of 1A load with excellent line and load regulation
4. Wide input voltage range 40V to 60V( HV-IC types) better than LM317.
5. Needs only 4 outside parts. see in Figure 1
6. Output voltage in adjustable styes 1.23V to 37V like LM317 but has HV vertion up to 57V.
7. It has a -/+ 4% max over line and load conditions.
8. 52 kHz fixed frequency internal oscillator
9. Uses readily available standard inductors.
10. Thermal shutdown and current limit protection.
11. Uses readily available standard inductors.
12. Thermal shutdown and current limit protection.

Simple 5V 1A Switching Regulator using LM2575-5.0

The switching regulator circuit using LM2575-5.0. It is fixed voltage regulator same LM7805 IC, But it has the good efficiency. No hot and full output current at 1A.

You can make the stable voltage by using the 3 terminal regulator like LM317. However, because the output electric current and the inputted electric current are the same approximately, the difference between the input electric power (The input voltage x The input electric current) and the output power (The output voltage x The output current) is consumed as the heat with the regulator. Because it is, the efficiency isn’t good.
