Description The LM2671 series of regulators are monolithic integrated circuits built with a LMDMOS process. These regulators provide all
the active functions for a step-down (buck) switching regulator, capable of driving a 500mA load current with excellent line
and load regulation. These devices are available in fixed output voltages of 3.3V, 5.0V, 12V, and an adjustable output version.
Requiring a minimum number of external components, these regulators are simple to use and include patented internal frequency
compensation (Patent Nos. 5,382,918 and 5,514,947), fixed frequency oscillator, external shutdown, soft-start, and frequency
synchronization.
The LM2671 series operates at a switching frequency of
260 kHz, thus allowing smaller sized filter components than what would be needed with lower frequency switching regulators. Because
of its very high efficiency (>90%), the copper traces on the printed circuit board are the only heat sinking needed.
A family of standard inductors for use with the LM2671 are available from several different manufacturers. This feature greatly
simplifies the design of switch-mode power supplies using these advanced ICs. Also included in the datasheet are selector
guides for diodes and capacitors designed to work in switch-mode power supplies.
Other features include a guaranteed ±1.5% tolerance on output voltage within specified input voltages and output load conditions,
and ±10% on the oscillator frequency. External shutdown is included, featuring typically 50 μA stand-by current. The output
switch includes current limiting, as well as thermal shutdown for full protection under fault conditions.
To simplify the LM2671 buck regulator design procedure, there exists computer design software,
