3 Description
The LM2598 series of regulators are monolithic
integrated circuits that provide all the active functions
for a step-down (buck) switching regulator, capable of
driving a 1-A load with excellent line and load
regulation. These devices are available in fixed output
voltages of 3.3 V, 5 V, 12 V, and an adjustable output
version.
The LM2598 is a member of the LM259x family.
Requiring a minimum number of external
components, these regulators are simple to use and
include internal frequency compensation, improved
line and load specifications, fixed-frequency oscillator,
Shutdown/Soft-start, error flag delay and error flag
output.
The LM2598 series operates at a switching frequency
of 150 kHz, thus allowing smaller sized filter
components than what would be required with lower-
frequency switching regulators. Available in a
standard 7-lead TO-220 package with several
different lead bend options, and a 7-lead DDPAK
surface mount package. Typically, for output voltages
less than 12 V, and ambient temperatures less than
50°C, no heat sink is required.
