Voltage Regulators - DC DC Switching Regulators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official datasheets to confirm pinout compatibility and thermal characteristics. Ensure the ordering part number matches the required tolerance and packaging format. Cross-reference manufacturer documentation for any recent lifecycle status changes or alternative package options before finalizing procurement plans.

Voltage Regulators - DC DC Switching Regulators Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 5V output is required from higher voltage rails up to 40V. It is suitable for designs prioritizing simplicity and low component count over adjustable output flexibility. Consider the 1A current limit and 260kHz frequency when sizing external inductors and capacitors for the target application load.

Voltage Regulators - DC DC Switching Regulators Part Context

This part belongs to the LM2672 series of monolithic integrated DC-DC converters. The series is designed for ease of use with minimal external components. The 'M' indicates an SOIC package, while '5.0' specifies the fixed 5V output version. The '/NOPB' denotes lead-free and RoHS compliance.

Voltage Regulators - DC DC Switching Regulators Replacement Considerations
