L4973V3.3 is listed in the Voltage Regulators - DC DC Switching Regulators range at ChipApex. The manufacturer field lists STMicroelectronics. Its product description is IC REG BUCK ADJ/0.5V 3.5A 18DIP. Review the specifications below when checking this part for your BOM.
The L4973V3.3 is a step-down monolithic power switching regulator manufactured by STMicroelectronics. It delivers an output current of 3.5A at a fixed output voltage of 3.3V, utilizing a simple external divider for output adjustment. The device operates with an input voltage range of 8V to 55V and supports an adjustable output voltage from 0.5V to 50V. It features a switching frequency of 100 kHz and is housed in an 18-pin PDIP package.
Verify the specific suffix (V3.3) against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm the fixed 3.3V output configuration and 18-pin PDIP packaging. Ensure compatibility with the required input voltage range of 8V to 55V and the 3.5A load requirement. Cross-reference the part number with authorized distributors to avoid counterfeit components.
Select this component when a robust buck converter is needed for high-input voltage applications requiring up to 3.5A. The fixed 3.3V output simplifies design compared to fully adjustable variants. Consider the through-hole PDIP package if PCB space allows, as surface-mount alternatives may differ in pin count or thermal performance.
The L4973 series comprises step-down switching regulators designed for high-current applications. The V3.3 variant specifically provides a stable 3.3V output, distinguishing it from other versions like the 5.1V option. It belongs to STMicroelectronics' portfolio of power management ICs aimed at industrial and consumer electronics.
