The LM2574xx series offers a high-efficiency replacement for popular three-terminal linear regulators. Because of its high efficiency, the copper traces on the printed-circuit board (PCB) are normally the only heat sinking needed. A standard series of inductors optimized for use with the LM2574 are available from several different manufacturers. This feature greatly simplifies the design of switch-mode power supplies. Other features include a specified ±4% tolerance on output voltage within specified input voltages and output load conditions, and ±10% on the oscillator frequency. External shutdown is included, featuring 50-μA (typical) standby current. The output switch includes cycle-by-cycle current limiting, as well as thermal shutdown for full protection under fault conditions.

It is capable of delivering up to 0.5-A DC load current with excellent line and load regulation. These devices are available in fixed output voltages of 3.3 V, 5 V, 12 V, 15 V, and an adjustable output version. The family requires few external components and the pin arrangement was designed for simple, optimum PCB layout. 7.2 Functional Block Diagram VIN Unregulated DC Input + CIN ON / OFF Internal Regulator 5 ON / OFF 3 1 Feedback Fixed Gain Error Amp R2 + R1 0.5 Amp Switch Compatator + ± DRIVER ± Signal GND Output L1 7 2 1.23 V BAND ± GAP REFRENCE D1 52 kHz OSCILLATOR Reset Thermal Shutdown Current Limit VOUT + COUT 4 L O A D Pwr Gnd Copyright © 2016, Texas Instruments Incorporated Note: Pin numbers are for the 8-pin PDIP package R1 = 1 k 3.3 V, R2 = 1.7 k 5 V, R2 = 3.1 k 12 V, R2 = 8.84 k 15 V, R2 = 11.3 k For adjustable version, R1 = Open, R2 = 0 Ω 7.3 Feature Description 7.3.1 Current Limit The LM2574 device has current limiting to prevent the switch current from exceeding safe values during an accidental overload on the output.

These circuits keep the regulator off until the input voltage reaches a predetermined level in Equation 1.

With an input voltage of 20 V and for the part values shown, the circuit provides approximately 10 ms of delay time before the circuit begins switching. Increasing the RC time constant can provide longer delay times. But excessively large RC time constants can cause problems with input voltages that are high in 60-Hz or 120-Hz ripple, by coupling the ripple into the ON/OFF pin. 7.3.4 Adjustable Output, Low-Ripple Power Supply A 500-mA power supply that features an adjustable output voltage is shown in Figure 18.

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. 8.1 Application Information 8.1.1 Input Capacitor (CIN) To maintain stability, the regulator input pin must be bypassed with at least a 22-μF electrolytic capacitor. The leads of the capacitor must be kept short, and located near the regulator. If the operating temperature range includes temperatures below −25°C, the input capacitor value may need to be larger. With most electrolytic capacitors, the capacitance value decreases and the ESR increases with lower temperatures and age. Paralleling a ceramic or solid tantalum capacitor increases the regulator stability at cold temperatures. For maximum capacitor operating lifetime, the RMS ripple current rating of the capacitor must be greater than Equation 2. t 1.2 ´ ON ´ ILOAD T where • • t ON VOUT = T VIN for a buck regulator VOUT t ON = T VOUT + VIN for a buck-boost regulator (2) 8.1.2 Inductor Selection 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 regulator performance and requirements. The LM2574 (or any of the SIMPLE SWITCHER family) can be used for both continuous and discontinuous modes of operation. In many cases the preferred mode of operation is in the continuous mode. It offers better load regulation, lower peak switch, inductor, and diode currents, and can have lower output ripple voltage. But it does require relatively large inductor values to keep the inductor current flowing continuously, especially at low output load currents. To simplify the inductor selection process, an inductor selection guide (nomograph) was designed. This guide assumes continuous mode operation, and selects an inductor that allows a peak-to-peak inductor ripple current (ΔIIND) to be a certain percentage of the maximum design load current. In the LM2574 SIMPLE SWITCHER, the peak-to-peak inductor ripple current percentage (of load current) is allowed to change as different design load currents are selected. By allowing the percentage of inductor ripple current to increase for lower current applications, the inductor size and value can be kept relatively low. 8.1.3 Inductor Ripple Current When the switcher is operating in the continuous mode, the inductor current waveform ranges from a triangular to a sawtooth type of waveform (depending on the input voltage). For a given input voltage and output voltage, the peak-to-peak amplitude of this inductor current waveform remains constant. As the load current rises or falls, the entire sawtooth current waveform also rises or falls. The average DC value of this waveform is equal to the DC load current (in the buck regulator configuration). 14 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 1999–2016, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2574 LM2574HV LM2574, LM2574HV www.ti.com SNVS104D – JUNE 1999 – REVISED APRIL 2016 Application Information (continued) If the load current drops to a low enough level, the bottom of the sawtooth current waveform reaches zero, and the switcher changes to a discontinuous mode of operation. This is a perfectly acceptable mode of operation. Any buck switching regulator (no matter how large the inductor value is) is forced to run discontinuous if the load current is light enough. The curve shown in Figure 19 illustrates how the peak-to-peak inductor ripple current (ΔIIND) is allowed to change as different maximum load currents are selected, and also how it changes as the operating point varies from the upper border to the lower border within an inductance region (see Inductor Selection). Figure 19. Inductor Ripple Current (ΔiIND) Range Consider the following example: VOUT = 5 V at 0.4 A VIN = 10-V minimum up to 20-V maximum The selection guide in Figure 24 shows that for a 0.4-A load current, and an input voltage range between 10 V and 20 V, the inductance region selected by the guide is 330 μH. This value of inductance allows a peak-to-peak inductor ripple current (ΔIIND) to flow that is a percentage of the maximum load current. For this inductor value, the ΔIIND also varies depending on the input voltage. As the input voltage increases to 20 V, it approaches the upper border of the inductance region, and the inductor ripple current increases. Referring to the curve in Figure 19, it can be seen that at the 0.4-A load current level, and operating near the upper border of the 330-μH inductance region, the ΔIIND is 53% of 0.4 A, or 212 mAp-p. This ΔIIND is important because from this number the peak inductor current rating can be determined, the minimum load current required before the circuit goes to discontinuous operation, and also, knowing the ESR of the output capacitor, the output ripple voltage can be calculated, or conversely, measuring the output ripple voltage and knowing the ΔIIND, the ESR can be calculated. From the previous example, the peak-to-peak inductor ripple current (ΔIIND) = 212 mAp-p. When the ΔIND value is known, the following three formulas can be used to calculate additional information about the switching regulator circuit: 1.

Inductors are available in different styles such as pot core, toroid, E-frame, bobbin core, and so forth, as well as different core materials, such as ferrites and powdered iron. The least expensive, the bobbin core type, consists of wire wrapped on a ferrite rod core. This type of construction makes for an inexpensive inductor, but because the magnetic flux is not completely contained within the core, it generates more electro-magnetic interference (EMI). This EMl can cause problems in sensitive circuits, or can give incorrect scope readings because of induced voltages in the scope probe. The inductors listed in the selection chart include powdered iron toroid for Pulse Engineering, and ferrite bobbin core for Renco. An inductor must not be operated beyond its maximum rated current because it may saturate. When an inductor begins to saturate, the inductance decreases rapidly and the inductor begins to look mainly resistive (the DC resistance of the winding). This can cause the inductor current to rise very rapidly and affects the energy storage capabilities of the inductor and could cause inductor overheating. Different inductor types have different saturation characteristics, and consider this when selecting an inductor. The inductor manufacturers' data sheets include current and energy limits to avoid inductor saturation. 8.1.4 Output Capacitor An output capacitor is required to filter the output voltage and is needed for loop stability. The capacitor must be located near the LM2574 using short PCB traces. Standard aluminum electrolytics are usually adequate, but low ESR types are recommended for low output ripple voltage and good stability. The ESR of a capacitor depends on many factors, some which are: the value, the voltage rating, physical size, and the type of construction. In general, low-value or low-voltage (less than 12 V) electrolytic capacitors usually have higher ESR numbers. The amount of output ripple voltage is primarily a function of the ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) of the output capacitor and the amplitude of the inductor ripple current, ΔIIND (see Inductor Ripple Current (ΔiIND)). The lower capacitor values (100 μF to 330 μF) allows typically 50 mV to 150 mV of output ripple voltage, while larger-value capacitors reduce the ripple to approximately 20 mV to 50 mV (as seen in Equation 5). Output Ripple Voltage = (ΔIIND) (ESR of COUT) (5) To further reduce the output ripple voltage, several standard electrolytic capacitors may be paralleled, or a higher-grade capacitor may be used. Such capacitors are often called high-frequency, low-inductance, or lowESR. These reduce the output ripple to 10 mV or 20 mV. However, when operating in the continuous mode, reducing the ESR below 0.03 Ω can cause instability in the regulator. Tantalum capacitors can have a very low ESR, and must be carefully evaluated if it is the only output capacitor. Because of their good low temperature characteristics, a tantalum can be used in parallel with aluminum electrolytics, with the tantalum making up 10% or 20% of the total capacitance. The ripple current rating of the capacitor at 52 kHz must be at least 50% higher than the peak-to-peak inductor ripple current. 8.1.5 Catch Diode Buck regulators require a diode to provide a return path for the inductor current when the switch is off. This diode must be located close to the LM2574 using short leads and short printed-circuit traces. Because of their fast switching speed and low forward voltage drop, Schottky diodes provide the best efficiency, especially in low output voltage switching regulators (less than 5 V). fast-recovery, high-efficiency, or ultra-fast recovery diodes are also suitable, but some types with an abrupt turnoff characteristic may cause instability and EMI problems. A fast-recovery diode with soft recovery characteristics is a better choice. Standard 60-Hz diodes (for example, 1N4001 or 1N5400, and so forth) are also not suitable. See Table 1 for Schottky and soft fastrecovery diode selection guide. 16 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 1999–2016, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2574 LM2574HV LM2574, LM2574HV www.ti.com SNVS104D – JUNE 1999 – REVISED APRIL 2016 Table 1.

The output ripple voltage is due mainly to the inductor sawtooth ripple current multiplied by the ESR of the output capacitor (see Inductor Selection). The voltage spikes are present because of the fast switching action of the output switch, and the parasitic inductance of the output filter capacitor. To minimize these voltage spikes, special low inductance capacitors can be used, and their lead lengths must be kept short. Wiring inductance, stray capacitance, as well as the scope probe used to evaluate these transients, all contribute to the amplitude of these spikes. An additional small LC filter (20 μH and 100 μF) can be added to the output (as shown in Figure 18) to further reduce the amount of output ripple and transients. A 10 × reduction in output ripple voltage and transients is possible with this filter. 8.1.7 Feedback Connection The LM2574 (fixed voltage versions) feedback pin must be wired to the output voltage point of the switching power supply. When using the adjustable version, physically locate both output voltage programming resistors near the LM2574 to avoid picking up unwanted noise. Avoid using resistors greater than 100 kΩ because of the increased chance of noise pickup. 8.1.8 ON/OFF Input For normal operation, the ON/OFF pin must be grounded or driven with a low-level TTL voltage (typically less than 1.6 V). To put the regulator into standby mode, drive this pin with a high-level TTL or CMOS signal. The ON/OFF pin can be safely pulled up to +VIN without a resistor in series with it. The ON/OFF pin must not be left open.

This circuit bootstraps the ground pin of the regulator to the negative output voltage, then by grounding the feedback pin, the regulator senses the inverted output voltage and regulates it to −12 V. Note: Pin numbers are for the 8-pin PDIP package. Figure 20. Inverting Buck-Boost Develops, 12 V For an input voltage of 8 V or more, the maximum available output current in this configuration is approximately 100 mA. At lighter loads, the minimum input voltage required drops to approximately 4.7 V. The switch currents in this buck-boost configuration are higher than in the standard buck-mode design, thus lowering the available output current. Also, the start-up input current of the buck-boost converter is higher than the standard buck-mode regulator, and this may overload an input power source with a current limit less than 0.6 A. Using a delayed turnon or an undervoltage lockout circuit (described in Negative Boost Regulator) would allow the input voltage to rise to a high enough level before the switcher would be allowed to turn on. Because of the structural differences between the buck and the buck-boost regulator topologies, the design procedure can not be used to select the inductor or the output capacitor. The recommended range of inductor values for the buck-boost design is between 68 μH and 220 μH, and the output capacitor values must be larger than what is normally required for buck designs. Low-input voltages or high-output currents require a large value output capacitor (in the thousands of micro Farads). The peak inductor current, which is the same as the peak switch current, can be calculated from Equation 6. IP » ILOAD ´ (VIN + VOUT VIN ) + VIN ´ VOUT VIN + VOUT ´ 1 2 ´ L 1 ´ f OSC where • • fosc = 52 kHz. Under normal continuous inductor current operating conditions, the minimum VIN represents the worst case. Select an inductor that is rated for the peak current anticipated. (6) Also, the maximum voltage appearing across the regulator is the absolute sum of the input and output voltage. For a −12-V output, the maximum input voltage for the LM2574 is 28 V, or 48 V for the LM2574HV. 8.1.9.2 Negative Boost Regulator Another variation on the buck-boost topology is the negative boost configuration. The circuit in Figure 21 accepts an input voltage ranging from −5 V to −12 V and provides a regulated −12-V output. Input voltages greater than −12 V causes the output to rise greater than −12 V, but does not damage the regulator. 18 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 1999–2016, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2574 LM2574HV LM2574, LM2574HV www.ti.com SNVS104D – JUNE 1999 – REVISED APRIL 2016 Note: Pin numbers are for 8-pin PDIP package. Figure 21. Negative Boost Because of the boosting function of this type of regulator, the switch current is relatively high, especially at low input voltages. Output load current limitations are a result of the maximum current rating of the switch. Also, boost regulators can not provide current-limiting load protection in the event of a shorted load, so some other means (such as a fuse) may be necessary. 8.2 Typical Applications 8.2.1 Fixed Output Voltage Applications CIN: 22 μF, 75 V Aluminum electrolytic COUT: 220 μF, 25 V Aluminum electrolytic D1: Schottky, 11DQ06 L1: 330 μH, 52627 (for 5 V in, 3.3 V out, use 100 μH, RL-1284-100) R1: 2k, 0.1% R2: 6.12k, 0.1% Figure 22.

COUT = 100-μF to 470-μF standard aluminum electrolytic. The voltage rating of the capacitor must be at least 1.5 times greater than the output voltage. For a 5-V regulator, a rating of at least 8 V is appropriate, and a 10-V or 15-V rating is recommended. Capacitor voltage rating = 20 V. Higher voltage electrolytic capacitors generally have lower ESR numbers, and for this reason it may be necessary to select a capacitor rated for a higher voltage than would normally be needed. 20 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 1999–2016, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2574 LM2574HV LM2574, LM2574HV www.ti.com SNVS104D – JUNE 1999 – REVISED APRIL 2016 8.2.1.2.3 Catch Diode Selection (D1) The catch-diode current rating must be at least 1.5 times greater than the maximum load current.

The voltage rating of the capacitor must be at last 1.5 times greater than the output voltage. For a 24-V regulator, a rating of at least 35 V is recommended.

Rapidly switching currents associated with wiring inductance generate voltage transients which can cause problems. For minimal inductance and ground loops, the length of the leads indicated by heavy lines must be kept as short as possible. Single-point grounding (as indicated) or ground plane construction must be used for best results. When using the adjustable version, physically locate the programming resistors near the regulator, to keep the sensitive feedback wiring short. 10 Layout 10.1 Layout Guidelines The layout is critical for the proper operation of switching power supplies. First, the ground plane area must be sufficient for thermal dissipation purposes. Second, appropriate guidelines must be followed to reduce the effects of switching noise. Switch mode converters are very fast switching devices. In such cases, the rapid increase of input current combined with the parasitic trace inductance generates unwanted L di/dt noise spikes. The magnitude of this noise tends to increase as the output current increases. This noise may turn into electromagnetic interference (EMI) and can also cause problems in device performance. Therefore, take care in the layout to minimize the effect of this switching noise. The most important layout rule is to keep the AC current loops as small as possible. Figure 33 shows the current flow in a buck converter. The top schematic shows a dotted line which represents the current flow during the top switch ON-state. The middle schematic shows the current flow during the top switch OFF-state. The bottom schematic shows the currents referred to as AC currents. These AC currents are the most critical because they are changing in a very short time period. The dotted lines of the bottom schematic are the traces to keep as short and wide as possible. This also yields a small loop area reducing the loop inductance. To avoid functional problems due to layout, review the PCB layout example. Best results are achieved if the placement of the LM2574 device, the bypass capacitor, the Schottky diode, RFBB, RFBT, and the inductor are placed as shown in the example. In the layout shown, R1 = RFBB and R2 = RFBT. TI also recommends using 2-oz. copper boards or heavier to help thermal dissipation and to reduce the parasitic inductances of board traces. See the application note AN-1229 SIMPLE SWITCHER® PCB Layout Guidelines (SNVA054) for more information. Figure 33.

LM2574 Adjustable Output Voltage Layout 10.3 Grounding The 8-pin molded PDIP and the 14-pin SOIC package have separate power and signal ground pins. Both ground pins must be soldered directly to wide printed-circuit board copper traces to assure low inductance connections and good thermal properties. 10.4 Thermal Considerations The 8-pin PDIP (P) package and the 14-pin SOIC (NPA) package are molded plastic packages with solid copper lead frames. The copper lead frame conducts the majority of the heat from the die, through the leads, to the printed-circuit board copper, which acts as the heat sink. For best thermal performance, wide copper traces must be used, and all ground and unused pins must be soldered to generous amounts of printed-circuit board copper, such as a ground plane. Large areas of copper provide the best transfer of heat (lower thermal resistance) to the surrounding air, and even double-sided or multilayer boards provide better heat paths to the surrounding air. Unless the power levels are small, using a socket for the 8-pin package is not recommended because of the additional thermal resistance it introduces, and the resultant higher junction temperature. Because of the 0.5-A current rating of the LM2574, the total package power dissipation for this switcher is quite low, ranging from approximately 0.1 W up to 0.75 W under varying conditions. In a carefully engineered printedcircuit board, both the P and the NPA package can easily dissipate up to 0.75 W, even at ambient temperatures of 60°C, and still keep the maximum junction temperature less than 125°C. A curve, Figure 14, displaying thermal resistance versus PCB area for the two packages is shown in Typical Characteristics. These thermal resistance numbers are approximate, and there can be many factors that affect the final thermal resistance. Some of these factors include board size, shape, thickness, position, location, and board temperature. Other factors are, the area of printed-circuit copper, copper thickness, trace width, multi-layer, single- or double-sided, and the amount of solder on the board. The effectiveness of the PCB to dissipate heat also depends on the size, number and spacing of other components on the board. Furthermore, some of these components, such as the catch diode and inductor generate some additional heat. Also, the thermal resistance decreases as the power level increases because of the increased air current activity at the higher power levels, and the lower surface to air resistance coefficient at higher temperatures. The data sheet thermal resistance curves can estimate the maximum junction temperature based on operating conditions. ln addition, the junction temperature can be estimated in actual circuit operation by using Equation 15.

This can be done by temporarily soldering a small thermocouple to the PCB copper near the IC, or by holding a small thermocouple on the PCB copper using thermal grease for good thermal conduction. The thermal resistance (θj-cu) for the two packages is: θj-cu = 42°C/W for the P-8 package θj-cu = 52°C/W for the NPA-14 package The power dissipation (PD) for the IC could be measured, or it can be estimated by using Equation 16.

Also known as a stepdown switching regulator. 11.1.2.2 Buck-Boost Regulator A switching regulator topology in which a positive voltage is converted to a negative voltage without a transformer. 11.1.2.3 Duty Cycle (D) The ratio of the ON-time of the output switch to the oscillator period calculated with Equation 17 for buck regulators and Equation 18 for buck-boost regulators. t V D = ON = OUT T VIN (17) D= VOUT t ON = T VOUT + VIN (18) 11.1.2.4 Catch Diode or Current Steering Diode This diode provides a return path for the load current when the LM2574 switch is OFF. In terms of efficiency (η), the proportion of input power actually delivered to the load calculated with Equation 19. P POUT h = OUT = PIN POUT + PLOSS (19) 11.1.2.5 Capacitor Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) The purely resistive component of a real capacitor's impedance (see Figure 35) can causes power loss resulting in capacitor heating, which directly affects the operating lifetime of the capacitor. When used as a switching regulator output filter, higher ESR values result in higher output ripple voltages. Figure 35. Simple Model Of A Real Capacitor Most standard aluminum electrolytic capacitors in the 100 μF to 1000 μF range have 0.5-Ω to 0.1-Ω ESR. Higher-grade capacitors (low-ESR, high-frequency, or low-inductance) in the 100 μF to 1000 μF range generally have ESR of less than 0.15 Ω. 11.1.2.6 Equivalent Series Inductance (ESL) The pure inductance component of a capacitor is seen in Figure 35. The amount of inductance is determined to a large extent on the capacitor's construction. In a buck regulator, this unwanted inductance causes voltage spikes to appear on the output. 28 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 1999–2016, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2574 LM2574HV LM2574, LM2574HV www.ti.com SNVS104D – JUNE 1999 – REVISED APRIL 2016 Device Support (continued) 11.1.2.7 Output Ripple Voltage The AC component of the output voltage of the switching regulator is usually dominated by the output capacitor's ESR multiplied by the inductor's ripple current (ΔIIND). The peak-to-peak value of this sawtooth ripple current can be determined by reading Inductor Ripple Current (ΔiIND). 11.1.2.8 Capacitor Ripple Current The RMS value of the maximum allowable alternating current at which a capacitor can be operated continuously at a specified temperature. 11.1.2.9 Standby Quiescent Current (ISTBY) Supply current required by the LM2574 when in the standby mode (ON/OFF pin is driven to TTL-high voltage, thus turning the output switch OFF). 11.1.2.10 Inductor Ripple Current (ΔiIND) The peak-to-peak value of the inductor current waveform, typically a sawtooth waveform when the regulator is operating in the continuous mode (vs. discontinuous mode). 11.1.2.11 Continuous and Discontinuous Mode Operation These mode operations relate to the inductor current. In the continuous mode, the inductor current is always flowing and never drops to zero, versus the discontinuous mode, where the inductor current drops to zero for a period of time in the normal switching cycle. 11.1.2.12 Inductor Saturation The condition which exists when an inductor cannot hold any more magnetic flux. When an inductor saturates, the inductor appears less inductive and the resistive component dominates. Inductor current is then limited only by the DC resistance of the wire and the available source current. 11.1.2.13 Operating Volt Microsecond Constant (E × Top) The product (in VoIt × μs) of the voltage applied to the inductor and the time the voltage is applied. This E × Top constant is a measure of the energy handling capability of an inductor and is dependent upon the type of core, the core area, the number of turns, and the duty cycle. 11.2 Documentation Support 11.2.1 Related Documentation For related documentation see the following: AN-1229 SIMPLE SWITCHER® PCB Layout Guidelines, SNVA054 11.3 Community Resources The following links connect to TI community resources.
