LM2596S-12/NOPB is listed in the Voltage Regulators - DC DC Switching Regulators range at ChipApex. The manufacturer field lists Texas Instruments. Its product description is IC REG BUCK 12V 3A TO263. Review the specifications below when checking this part for your BOM.
The LM2596S-12/NOPB is a SIMPLE SWITCHER step-down voltage regulator from Texas Instruments. It operates with an input voltage range of 4.5 V to 40 V and provides a fixed 12 V output at up to 3 A. The device utilizes a buck topology with a switching frequency of 150 kHz. It is housed in a TO-263-5 surface-mount package and supports operation across a temperature range of -40 °C to +125 °C.
Verify the specific suffix 'NOPB' confirms lead-free status and RoHS compliance as per manufacturer specifications. Ensure the ordering part number matches the required TO-263-5 surface mount package configuration. Confirm that the fixed 12 V output variant aligns with system voltage requirements before procurement.
Select this component when a fixed 12 V output is required from a wide input range. The TO-263-5 package offers thermal performance advantages over smaller packages. Consider the 150 kHz switching frequency for balancing component size and efficiency against noise sensitivity in the target application environment.
This part belongs to the LM2596 series of SIMPLE SWITCHER regulators, designed for low component count applications. It represents the surface-mount variant (S) within the family, distinct from through-hole versions. The NOPB suffix indicates it is manufactured without lead-based materials, adhering to environmental standards.
