LM2596HV-3.3 Switching Regulator

Function: 3A Step-Down (Buck) Regulator (150kHz).
It requires significantly smaller external inductors and capacitors than the LM2576 due to its higher switching frequency.
Variants: Stock LM2596T-ADJ and LM2596T-5.0.

Fixed Output Voltage Versions
• LM2596-3.3: Fixed 3.3V output
• LM2596-5.0: Fixed 5V output
• LM2596-12: Fixed 12V output
• LM2596-15: Fixed 15V output

Adjustable Output Version
• LM2596-ADJ: Allows the user to set a custom output voltage ranging from 1.23V to 37V (or up to 57V for the HV version) using external resistors.
• Adjustable version output voltage range,1.23 V to 37 V (57 V for HV version) ±4% maximum over line and load conditions

High Voltage (HV) Versions : For input supplies higher than 40V, the LM2596HV variants provide a wider maximum operating input voltage of up to 60V.
• Fixed models: LM2596HV-3.3, LM2596HV-5.0, LM2596HV-12, LM2596HV-15
• Adjustable model: LM2596HV-ADJ
• Wide input voltage range: 40 V Up to 60 V for HV version
