This series of switching regulators is similar to the
LM2591HV with additional supervisory and control
features.
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, output error flag and flag delay.
The LM2590HV operates at a switching frequency of
150 kHz thus allowing smaller sized filter components
than what would be needed with lower frequency
switching regulators. Available in a standard 7-pin
TO-220 package with several different lead bend
options, and a 7-pin TO-263 surface-mount package.

NAME
TYPE (1)
DESCRIPTION
1
VIN
I
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.
2
Output
O
Internal switch. The voltage at this pin switches between approximately (+VIN – VSAT) and
approximately –0.5 V, with a duty cycle of VOUT/VIN.
3
Flag
O
Open collector output that goes active low (≤1 V) when the output of the switching regulator is out of
regulation (less than 95% of its nominal value). In this state it can sink maximum 3 mA. When not
low, it can be pulled high to signal that the output of the regulator is in regulation (power good).
During power-up, it can be programmed to go high after a certain delay as set by the Delay pin (Pin
5). The maximum rating of this pin must not be exceeded, so if the rail to which it will be pulled-up to
is higher than 45 V, a resistive divider must be used instead of a single pull-up resistor, as indicated
in Test Circuits.
4
Ground
G
Circuit ground
O
This sets a programmable power-up delay from the moment that the output reaches regulation, to the
high signal output (power good) on Pin 3. A capacitor on this pin starts charging up by means on an
internal (3 μA) current source when the regulated output rises to within 5% of its nominal value. Pin 3
goes high (with an external pull-up) when the voltage on the capacitor on Pin 5 exceeds 1.3 V. The
voltage on this pin is clamped internally to about 1.7 V. If the regulated output drops out of regulation
(less than 95% of its nominal value), the capacitor on Pin 5 is rapidly discharged internally and Pin 3
will be forced low in about 1/1000th of the set power-up delay time.
I
Senses the regulated output voltage to complete the feedback loop. This pin is directly connected to
the Output for the fixed voltage versions, but is set to 1.23 V by means of a resistive divider from the
output for the adjustable version. If a feedforward capacitor is used (adjustable version), then a
negative voltage spike is generated on this pin whenever the output is shorted. This happens
because the feedforward capacitor cannot discharge fast enough, and since one end of it is dragged
to Ground, the other end goes momentarily negative. To prevent the energy rating of this pin from
being exceeded, a small-signal Schottky diode to Ground is recommended for DC input voltages
above 40 V whenever a feedforward capacitor is present (see Test Circuits). Feedforward capacitor
values larger than 0.1 µF are not recommended for the same reason, whatever be the DC input
voltage.

NAME

TYPE (1)
DESCRIPTION
I
Shutdown/Soft-start: The regulator is in shutdown mode, drawing about 90 μA, when this pin is driven
to a low level (≤0.6 V), and is in normal operation when this Pin is left floating (internal-pullup) or
driven to a high level (≥2 V). The typical value of the threshold is 1.3 V and the pin is internally
clamped to a maximum of about 7 V. If it is driven higher than the clamp voltage, it must be ensured
by means of an external resistor that the current into the pin does not exceed 1 mA. The duty cycle is
minimum (0%) if this Pin is below 1.8 V, and increases as the voltage on the pin is increased. The
maximum duty cycle (100%) occurs when this pin is at 2.8 V or higher. So adding a capacitor to this
pin produces a soft-start feature. An internal current source will charge the capacitor from zero to its
internally clamped value. The charging current is about 5 µA when the pin is below 1.3 V but is
reduced to only 1.6 µA above 1.3 V, so as to allow the use of smaller soft-start capacitors.

8.3 Feature Description
8.3.1 Undervoltage Lockout
Some applications require the regulator to remain off until the input voltage reaches a predetermined voltage.
Figure 26 contains a undervoltage lockout circuit for a buck configuration, while Figure 27 and Figure 28 are for
the inverting types (only the circuitry pertaining to the undervoltage lockout is shown). Figure 26 uses a Zener
diode to establish the threshold voltage when the switcher begins operating. When the input voltage is less than
the Zener voltage, resistors R1 and R2 hold the SHUTDOWN/SOFT-START pin low, keeping the regulator in the
shutdown mode. As the input voltage exceeds the Zener voltage, the Zener conducts, pulling the
SHUTDOWN/SOFT-START pin high, allowing the regulator to begin switching. The threshold voltage for the
undervoltage lockout feature is approximately 1.5 V greater than the Zener voltage.

Figure 27 and Figure 28 apply the same feature to an inverting circuit. Figure 27 features a constant threshold
voltage for turn on and turn off (Zener voltage plus approximately 1 V). If hysteresis is needed, the circuit in
Figure 28 has a turn ON voltage which is different than the turn OFF voltage. The amount of hysteresis is
approximately equal to the value of the output voltage. Since the SD/SS pin has an internal 7-V Zener clamp, R2
is needed to limit the current into this pin to approximately 1 mA when Q1 is on.

8.3.2 SHUTDOWN/SOFT-START
This reduction in start up current is useful in situations where the input power source is limited in the amount of
current it can deliver. In some applications Soft-start can be used to replace undervoltage lockout or delayed
startup functions.
If a very slow output voltage ramp is desired, the Soft-start capacitor can be made much larger. Many seconds or
even minutes are possible.
If only the shutdown feature is needed, the Soft-start capacitor can be eliminated.

9 Application and Implementation
NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
9.1 Application Information
9.1.1 Feedforward Capacitor, CFF
(Adjustable output voltage version only)
A feedforward capacitor shown across R2 in Test Circuits is used when the output voltage is greater than 10 V or
when COUT has a very low ESR. This capacitor adds lead compensation to the feedback loop and increases the
phase margin for better loop stability.
If the output voltage ripple is large (>5% of the nominal output voltage), this ripple can be coupled to the
feedback pin through the feedforward capacitor and cause the error comparator to trigger the error flag. In this
situation, adding a resistor, RFF, in series with the feedforward capacitor, approximately 3 times R1, will attenuate
the ripple voltage at the feedback pin.
9.1.2 Input Capacitor, CIN
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.
The important parameters for the input capacitor are the voltage rating and the RMS current rating. Because of
the relatively high RMS currents flowing in the input capacitor of the buck regulator, this capacitor must be
chosen for its RMS current rating rather than its capacitance or voltage ratings, although the capacitance value
and voltage rating are directly related to the RMS current rating. The voltage rating of the capacitor and its RMS
ripple current capability must never be exceeded.
9.1.3 Output Capacitor, COUT
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 ripple current rating, voltage rating, and capacitance value. For the output capacitor, the ESR
value is the most important parameter. The ESR must generally not be less than 100 mW or there will be loop
instability. If the ESR is too large, efficiency and output voltage ripple are effected. So ESR must be chosen
carefully.
9.1.4 Catch Diode
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 LM2590HV 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 (5 V 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. Ultra-fast recovery diodes typically have reverse recovery times of 50 ns or less. The diode must
be chosen for its average or RMS current rating and maximum voltage rating. The voltage rating of the diode
must be greater than the DC input voltage (not the output voltage).

Application Information (continued)
9.1.5 Inverting Regulator
The circuit in Figure 31 converts a positive input voltage to a negative output voltage with a common ground. The
circuit operates by bootstrapping the regulator’s ground pin to the negative output voltage, then grounding the
feedback pin, the regulator senses the inverted output voltage and regulates it.
This example uses the LM2590HV 5-V to generate a −5-V output, but other output voltages are possible by
selecting other output voltage versions, including the adjustable version. Since this regulator topology can
produce an output voltage that is either greater than or less than the input voltage, the maximum output current
greatly depends on both the input and output voltage.
To determine how much load current is possible before the internal device current limit is reached (and power
limiting occurs), the system must be evaluated as a buck-boost configuration rather than as a buck. The peak
switch current in Amperes, for such a configuration is given in Equation 1.
where
•
•
L is in µH
f is in Hz
(1)
The maximum possible load current, ILOAD, is limited by the requirement that IPEAK ≤ ICLIM. While checking for this,
take ICLIM to be the lowest possible current limit value (minimum across tolerance and temperature is 2.3 A for
the LM2590HV). Also to account for inductor tolerances, we must take the minimum value of Inductance for L in
the equation above (typically 20% less than the nominal value). Further, the above equation disregards the drop
across the Switch and the diode. This is equivalent to assuming 100% efficiency, which is never so. Therefore
expect IPEAK to be an additional 10% to 20% higher than calculated from the above equation. Refer to AN-1197
Selecting Inductors for Buck Converters (SNVA038) for examples based on positive to negative configuration.
The maximum voltage appearing across the regulator is the absolute sum of the input and output voltage, and
this must be limited to a maximum of 60 V. In this example, when converting 20 V to −5 V, the regulator would
see 25 V between the input pin and ground pin. The LM2590HV has a maximum input voltage rating of 60 V. An
additional diode is required in this regulator configuration. Diode D1 is used to isolate input voltage ripple or
noise from coupling through the CIN capacitor to the output, under light or no load conditions. Also, this diode
isolation changes the topology to closely resemble a buck configuration thus providing good closed loop stability.
A Schottky diode is recommended for low input voltages, (because of its lower voltage drop) but for higher input
voltages, a IN5400 diode could be used. Because of differences in the operation of the inverting regulator, the
standard design procedure is not used to select the inductor value. In the majority of designs, a 33-µH, 4-A
inductor is the best choice. Capacitor selection can also be narrowed down to just a few values. This type of
inverting regulator can require relatively large amounts of input current when starting up, even with light loads.
Input currents as high as the LM2590HV current limit (approximately 4 A) are needed for 2 ms or more, until the
output reaches its nominal output voltage. The actual time depends on the output voltage and the size of the
output capacitor. Input power sources that are current limited or sources that can not deliver these currents
without getting loaded down, may not work correctly. Because of the relatively high startup currents required by
the inverting topology, the soft-start feature shown in Figure 31 is recommended. Also shown in Figure 31 are
several shutdown methods for the inverting configuration. With the inverting configuration, some level shifting is
required, because the ground pin of the regulator is no longer at ground, but is now at the negative output
voltage. The shutdown methods shown accept ground referenced shutdown signals.

9.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
9.2.2.1 Inductor Selection Procedure
For a quick-start, refer to the nomographs provided in Figure 33 to Figure 35. To widen the choices to a more
general selection of available inductors, the nomographs provide the required inductance and also the energy in
the core expressed in microjoules (µJ), as an alternative to just prescribing custom parts. The following points
need to be highlighted:
1. The energy values shown on the nomographs apply to steady operation at the corresponding x-coordinate
(rated maximum load current). However under start-up, without soft-start, or a short-circuit on the output, the
current in the inductor will momentarily/repetitively hit the current limit ICLIM of the device, and this current
could be much higher than the rated load, ILOAD. This represents an overload situation, and can cause the
Inductor to saturate (if it has been designed only to handle the energy of steady operation). However most
types of core structures used for such applications have a large inherent air gap (for example powdered iron
types or ferrite rod inductors), and so the inductance does not fall off too sharply under an overload. The
device is usually able to protect itself by not allowing the current to ever exceed ICLIM. But if the DC input
voltage to the regulator is over 40 V, the current can slew up so fast under core saturation, that the device
may not be able to act fast enough to restrict the current. The current can then rise without limit till
destruction of the device takes place. Therefore to ensure reliability, TI recommends that if the DC input
voltage exceeds 40 V the inductor must always be sized to handle an instantaneous current equal to ICLIM
without saturating, irrespective of the type of core structure or material.
2. Use Equation 2 to calculate the energy under steady operation.
where
•
•
L is in µH
IPEAK is the peak of the inductor current waveform with the regulator delivering ILOAD
(2)
These are the energy values shown in the nomographs. See Example 1.
3. The energy under overload is Equation 3.
(3)
If VIN > 40 V, the inductor must be sized to handle eCLIM instead of the steady energy values. The worst case
ICLIM for the LM2590HV is 3 A. The energy rating depends on the inductance. See Example 2.
4. The nomographs were generated by allowing a greater amount of percentage current ripple in the Inductor
as the maximum rated load decreases (see Figure 36). This was done to permit the use of smaller inductors
at light loads. However, Figure 36 shows only the median value of the current ripple. In reality there may be
a great spread around this because the nomographs approximate the exact calculated inductance to
standard available values. Refer to AN-1197 Selecting Inductors for Buck Converters (SNVA038) for detailed
calculations if a certain maximum inductor current ripple is required for various possible reasons. Also
consider the rather wide tolerance on the nominal inductance of commercial inductors.
5. Figure 35 shows the inductor selection curves for the Adjustable version. The y-axis is Et, in Vµsecs. It is the
applied volts across the inductor during the ON time of the switch (VIN-VSAT-VOUT) multiplied by the time for
which the switch is on in µsecs. See Example 3.
9.2.2.1.1 Example 1: VIN ≤ 40 V, 5-V Version, VIN = 24 V, Output = 5 V at 1 A
1. A first pass inductor selection is based upon Inductance and rated max load current. We choose an inductor
with the Inductance value indicated by the nomograph (see Figure 34) and a current rating equal to the
maximum load current. We therefore quick-select a 68-μH, 1-A inductor (designed for 150 kHz operation) for
this application
2. We must confirm that it is rated to handle 50 µJ (see Figure 34) by either estimating the peak current or by a
detailed calculation as shown in AN-1197 Selecting Inductors for Buck Converters (SNVA038), and also that
the losses are acceptable.
9.2.2.1.2 Example 2: VIN > 40 V, 5-V Version, VIN = 48 V, Output = 5 V at 1.5 A
1. A first pass inductor selection is based upon Inductance and the switch current limit. We choose an inductor

with the Inductance value indicated by the nomograph (see Figure 34) and a current rating equal to ICLIM. We
therefore quick-select a 68-µH, 4-A inductor (designed for 150 kHz operation) for this application.
2. We must confirm that it is rated to handle eCLIM by the procedure shown in AN-1197 Selecting Inductors for
Buck Converters (SNVA038) and that the losses are acceptable. Here eCLIM is Equation 4.
(4)
9.2.2.1.3 Example 3: VIN ≤ 40 V, Adjustable Version, VIN = 20 V, Output = 10 V at 2 A
1. Since input voltage is less than 40 V, a first pass inductor selection is based upon Inductance and rated max
load current. We choose an inductor with the Inductance value indicated by the nomograph Figure 35 and a
current rating equal to the maximum load. But we first need to calculate Et for the given application. The
Duty cycle is Equation 5.
where
•
•
VD is the drop across the catch diode (0.5 V for a Schottky)
VSAT the drop across the switch (1.5 V)
(5)
So this yields Equation 6.
(6)
2. The switch ON time is calculated with Equation 7.
where
•
f is the switching frequency in Hz
(7)
So this yields Equation 8.
(8)
3. Therefore, looking at Figure 33, quick-select a 47-μH, 2-A inductor (designed for 150 kHz operation) for this
application.
4. Confirm that it is rated to handle 200 µJ (see Figure 35) by the procedure shown in AN-1197 Selecting
Inductors for Buck Converters (SNVA038) and that the losses are acceptable. (If the DC Input voltage had
been greater than 40 V we would need to consider eCLIM as in Example 2). This completes the simplified
inductor selection procedure. For more general applications and better optimization, refer to AN-1197
Selecting Inductors for Buck Converters (SNVA038).

10 Power Supply Recommendations
The LM2590HV is designed to operate from an input voltage supply up to 60 V. This input supply must be well
regulated and able to withstand maximum input current and maintain a stable voltage.
11 Layout
11.1 Layout Guidelines
As in any switching regulator, layout is very important. Rapidly switching currents associated with wiring
inductance can generate voltage transients which can cause problems. For minimal inductance and ground
loops, with reference to Test Circuits, the wires indicated by heavy lines must be wide printed circuit traces and
must be kept as short as possible. For best results, external components must be located as close to the
switcher lC as possible using ground plane construction or single point grounding.
If open-core inductors are used, special care must be taken as to the location and positioning of this type of
inductor. Allowing the inductor flux to intersect sensitive feedback, lC groundpath and COUT wiring can cause
problems.
When using the adjustable version, take special care as to the location of the feedback resistors and the
associated wiring. Physically locate both resistors near the IC, and route the wiring away from the inductor,
especially an open-core type of inductor.

11.3 Thermal Considerations
The LM2590HV is available in two packages, a 5-pin TO-220 (T) and a 5-pin surface-mount TO-263 (S). The
TO-220 package needs a heat sink under most conditions. The size of the heatsink depends on the input
voltage, the output voltage, the load current and the ambient temperature. Higher ambient temperatures require
more heat sinking. The TO-263 surface-mount package tab is designed to be soldered to the copper on a printed
circuit board. The copper and the board are the heat sink for this package and the other heat producing
components, such as the catch diode and inductor. The PCB copper area that the package is soldered to must
be at least 0.4 in2, and ideally must have 2 or more square inches of 2 oz. (0.0028) in. copper. Additional copper
area improves the thermal characteristics, but with copper areas greater than approximately 6 in2, only small
improvements in heat dissipation are realized. If further thermal improvements are needed, double-sided,
multilayer PC board with large copper areas or airflow are recommended. The curves shown in Figure 39 show
the LM2590HV (TO-263 package) junction temperature rise above ambient temperature with a 2-A load for
various input and output voltages. This data was taken with the circuit operating as a buck switching regulator
with all components mounted on a PCB to simulate the junction temperature under actual operating conditions.
This curve can be used for a quick check for the approximate junction temperature for various conditions, but be
aware that there are many factors that can affect the junction temperature. When load currents higher than 2 A

Thermal Considerations (continued)
are used, double-sided or multilayer boards with large copper areas or airflow might be needed, especially for
high ambient temperatures and high output voltages. For the best thermal performance, wide copper traces and
generous amounts of printed circuit board copper must be used in the board layout. One exception to this is the
output (switch) pin, which must not have large areas of copper. Large areas of copper provide the best transfer
of heat (lower thermal resistance) to the surrounding air, and moving air lowers the thermal resistance even
further. Package thermal resistance and junction temperature rise numbers are all approximate, and there are
many factors that will affect these numbers. Some of these factors include board size, shape, thickness, position,
location, and even board temperature. Other factors are, trace width, total printed circuit copper area, copper
thickness, single- or double-sided, multilayer board and the amount of solder on the board. The effectiveness of
the PCB to dissipate heat also depends on the size, quantity and spacing of other components on the board, as
well as whether the surrounding air is still or moving. Furthermore, some of these components such as the catch
diode will add heat to the PCB and the heat can vary as the input voltage changes. For the inductor, depending
on the physical size, type of core material and the DC resistance, it could either act as a heat sink taking heat
away from the board, or it could add heat to the board.
