LM2599 SIMPLE SWITCHER Power Converter 150 kHz 3A Step-Down Voltage Regulator, with
Features
General Description
The LM2599 series of regulators are monolithic integrated
circuits that provide all the active functions for a step-down
(buck) switching regulator, capable of driving a 3A load with
excellent line and load regulation. These devices are available in fixed output voltages of 3.3V, 5V, 12V, and an adjustable output version.
This series of switching regulators is similar to the LM2596
series, with additionalsupervisory and performance features
added.
Requiring a minimum number of external components, these
regulators are simple to use and include internal frequency
compensation
fixed-frequency oscillator, Shutdown/Soft-start, error flag delay and error flag output.
The LM2599 series 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-lead TO-220 package with several
different lead bend options, and a 7-lead TO-263 Surface
mount package.
A standard series of inductors (both through hole and surface mount types) are available from several different manufacturers optimized for use with the LM2599 series. This
feature greatly simplifies the design of switch-mode power
supplies.
Other features include a guaranteed
put voltage under all conditions of input voltage and output
load conditions, and
ternal shutdown is included, featuring typically 80 µA

FIGURE 1. Standard Test Circuits and Layout Guides
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, the wires indicated by
heavy lines should be wide printed circuit traces and
should be kept as short as possible. For best results,
external components should 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 C
wiring can cause problems.
OUT
When using the adjustable version, special care must be
taken 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. (See application section for more
information.)

1. Inductor Selection (L1)
A. Select the correct inductor value selection guide from
Figure 4,Figure 5
,or6.(Output voltages of 3.3V, 5V, or 12V
respectively.) For all other voltages, see the design procedure for the adjustable version.
B. From the inductor value selection guide, identify the inductance region intersected by the Maximum Input Voltage
line and the Maximum Load Current line. Each region is
identified by an inductance value and an inductor code
(LXX).
C. Select an appropriate inductor from the four manufacturer’s part numbers listed in
2. Output Capacitor Selection (C
Figure 8
.
OUT
)
A. In the majority of applications, low ESR (Equivalent Series
Resistance) electrolytic capacitors between 82 µF and 820
µF and low ESR solid tantalum capacitors between 10 µF
and 470 µF provide the best results. This capacitor should be
located close to the IC using short capacitor leads and short
copper traces. Do not use capacitors larger than 820 µF.
For additional information, see section on output capacitors in application information section.
B. To simplify the capacitor selection procedure, refer to the
quick design component selection table shown in
Figure 2
This table contains different input voltages, output voltages,
and load currents, and lists various inductors and output
capacitors that will provide the best design solutions.
C. The capacitor voltage rating for electrolytic capacitors
should be at least 1.5 times greater than the output voltage,
and often much higher voltage ratings are needed to satisfy
the low ESR requirements for low output ripple voltage.
D. For computer aided design software, see
Made Simple

1. Inductor Selection (L1)
A. Use the inductor selection guide for the 5V version shown
Figure 5
in
.
B. From the inductor value selection guide shown in
the inductance region intersected by the 12V horizontal line
and the 3A vertical line is 33 µH, and the inductor code is
L40.
C. The inductance value required is 33 µH. From the table in
Figure 8
, go to the L40 line and choose an inductor part
number from any of the four manufacturers shown. (In most
instance, both through hole and surface mount inductors are
available.)
2. Output Capacitor Selection (C
A. See section on output capacitors in application infor-
mation section.
B. From the quick design component selection table shown
in
Figure 2
, locate the 5V output voltage section. In the load
current column, choose the load current line that is closest to
the current needed in your application, for this example, use
the 3A line. In the maximum input voltage column, select the
line that covers the input voltage needed in your application,
in this example, use the 15V line. Continuing on this line are
recommended inductors and capacitors that will provide the
.
best overall performance.
The capacitor list contains both through hole electrolytic and
surface mount tantalum capacitors from four different capacitor manufacturers. It is recommended that both the manufacturers and the manufacturer’s series that are listed in the
table be used.
In this example aluminum electrolytic capacitors from several
different manufacturers are available with the range of ESR
numbers needed.
330 µF 35V Panasonic HFQ Series
330 µF 35V Nichicon PL Series
C. For a 5V output, a capacitor voltage rating at least 7.5V or
more is needed. But even a low ESR, switching grade, 220
µF 10V aluminum electrolytic capacitor would exhibit approximately 225 mΩ of ESR (see the curve in
the ESR vs voltage rating). This amount of ESR would result
in relatively high output ripple voltage. To reduce the ripple to
1% of the output voltage, or less, a capacitor with a higher
value or with a higher voltage rating (lower ESR) should be
selected. A 16V or 25V capacitor will reduce the ripple voltage by approximately half.
