Product details

3 A output, 12 V fixed — the workhorse buck for unregulated rails

The LM2576HVT-12/LF03 is a fixed 12 V output step-down regulator from TI's SIMPLE SWITCHER® family, rated for a continuous 3 A output.

The TO-220-5 through-hole package with formed leads allows the tab to be bolted to a heatsink or chassis — essential for dissipating the heat from a 3 A load at high input-to-output differential. No synchronous rectifier is used, so the Schottky catch diode must be selected for the full 3 A output and the maximum input voltage.

Frequently asked questions

What is the maximum output current of the LM2576HVT-12/LF03?

The continuous output current rating is 3 A. The actual deliverable current depends on the input-to-output differential, switching frequency, and thermal management — the TO-220-5 tab should be heatsinked for sustained 3 A operation.
