These devices are available in fixed output voltages of 3.3V, 5V, 12V, 15V, and an adjustable output version. Requiring a minimum number of external components, these regulators are simple to use and include internal frequency compensation and a fixed frequency oscillator. A standard series of inductors optimized for use with the AE2576 are available from several different manufacturers. This feature greatly simplifies the design of switch-mode power supplies. Others features include a guaranteed ±4% tolerance on output voltage within specified input voltages and output load conditions, and ±10% on the oscillator frequency. External shutdown in included, featuring 50µA (typical) standby current. The output switch includes cycle-by-cycle current limiting, as well as thermal shutdown for full protection under fault conditions. Free Datasheet http://www.datasheet4u.com/

AE2576 SIMPLE SWITCHER 3A Step-Down Voltage Regulator Jan.2010 V1.2 3/11 Pin Functions: +VIN —This is the positive input supply for the IC switching regulator. A suitable input bypass capacitor must be present at this pin to minimize voltage transients and to supply the switching currents needed by the regulator . Ground —Circuit ground Output —Internal switch, the voltage at this pin switches between (+VIN VSAT) and approximately -0.5V. To minimize coupling to sensitive circuitry, the PC board copper area connected to this pin should be kept to a minimum . FeedBack —Senses the regulated output voltage to complete the feedback loop . —Allows the switching regulator circuit to be shut down using logic level signals. Pulling this pin below a threshold voltage of approximately 1.5V turns the regulator on, and pulling this pin above 1.51V (up to a maximum of 25V) shuts the regulator down. If this shutdown feature is not needed, the pin can be wired to the ground pin or it can be left open, in either case the regulator will be in the ON condition Absolute Maximum Ratings (Note 1) Parameter Rating Unit Maximum Supply Voltage 45 V Pin Input Voltage -0.3 ～+ V IN V Output Voltage to Ground Steady State) -1 V Power Dissipation Internally limited -- Storage Temperature Range -65 ～150 ℃ ESD Susceptibility (Human Body Model) 2 KV Maximum Junction Temperature 150 ℃ Temperature Range -40 ～125 ℃ Conditions Supply Voltage 4.5~40 V

AE2576 SIMPLE SWITCHER 3A Step-Down Voltage Regulator Jan.2010 V1.2 9/11 INPUT CAPACITOR C IN —A low ESR aluminum or tantalum bypass capacitor is needed between the input pin and ground pin . It must be located near the regulator using short leads. This capacitor prevents large voltage transients from appearing at the input, and provides the instantaneous current needed each time the switch turns on. Selecting an input capacitor requires consulting the manufacturers data sheet for maximum allowable RMS ripple current. For a maximum ambient temperature of 40° C, a general guideline would be to select a capacitor with a ripple current rating of approximately 50% of the DC load current. For ambient temperatures up to 70° C, a current rating of 75% of the DC load current would be a good choice for a conservative design. The capacitor voltage rating must be at least 1.25 times greater than the maximum input voltage, and often a much higher voltage capacitor is needed to satisfy the RMS current requirements. OUTPUT CAPACITOR C OUT —-An output capacitor is required to filter the output and provide regulator loop stability. Low impedance or low ESR Electrolytic or solid tantalum capacitors designed for switching regulator applications must be used. When selecting an output capacitor, the important capacitor parameters are; the 100 kHz Equivalent Series resistance (ESR), the RMS ripples current rating, voltage rating, and capacitance value. For the output capacitor, the ESR value is the most important parameter. The output capacitor requires an ESR value that has an upper and lower limit. For low output ripple voltage, a low ESR value is needed. This value is determined by the maximum allow able output ripple voltage, typically 1% to 2% of the output voltage. But if the selected capacitor’s ESR is extremely low, there is a possibility of an unstable feedback loop, resulting in an oscillation at the output. CATCH DIODE D —-Buck regulators require a diode to provide a return path for the inductor current when the switch turns off. This must be a fast diode and must be located close to the AE2576 using short leads and short printed circuit traces. Because of their very fast switching speed and low forward voltage drop, Schottky diodes provide the best performance, especially in low output voltage applications (5V and lower). Ultra fast recovery, or High-Efficiency rectifiers are also a good choice, but some types with an abrupt turnoff characteristic may cause instability or EMI problems. INDUCTOR SELECTION L —-All switching regulators have two basic modes of operation; continuous and discontinuous. The difference between the two types relates to the inductor current, whether it is flowing continuously, or if it drops to zero for a period of time in the normal switching cycle. Each mode has distinctively different operating characteristics, which can affect the regulators performance and requirements. Most switcher designs will operate in the discontinuous mode when the load current is low. The AE2576 (or any of the Simple Switcher family) can be used for both continuous and discontinuous modes of operation. There is a formula for general applications: L =(5 ～10) (1- V V IN O )mH Note ： The unit of voltage is V ， the unit of current is A) Free Datasheet http://www.datasheet4u.com/
