LM2586

SIMPLE SWITCHER® 3A Flyback Regulator with Shutdown

General Description

The LM2586 series of regulators are monolithic integrated circuits specifically designed for flyback, step-up (boost), and forward converter applications. The device is available in 4 different output voltage versions: 3.3V, 5.0V, 12V, and adjustable.

Requiring a minimum number of external components, these regulators are cost effective, and simple to use. Included in the datasheet are typical circuits of boost and flyback regulators. Also listed are selector guides for diodes and capacitors and a family of standard inductors and flyback transformers designed to work with these switching regulators.

The power switch is a 3.0A NPN device that can stand-off 65V. Protecting the power switch are current and thermal limiting circuits, and an undervoltage lockout circuit. This IC contains an adjustable frequency oscillator that can be programmed up to 200 kHz. The oscillator can also be synchronized with other devices, so that multiple devices can operate at the same switching frequency.

Other features include soft start mode to reduce in-rush current during start up, and current mode control for improved rejection of input voltage and output load transients and cycle-by-cycle current limiting. The device also has a shutdown pin, so that it can be turned off externally. An output voltage tolerance of ±4%, within specified input voltages and output load conditions, is guaranteed for the power supply system.

LM2586-ADJ (Continued)

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. These ratings apply when the current is limited to less than 1.2 mA for pins 1, 2, 3, and 6. Operating ratings indicate conditions for which the device is intended to be functional, but device parameter specifications may not be guaranteed under these conditions. For guaranteed specifications and test conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics.

Note 2: Note that switch current and output current are not identical in a step-up regulator. Output current cannot be internally limited when the LM2586 is used as a step-up regulator. To prevent damage to the switch, the output current must be externally limited to 3A. However, output current is internally limited when the LM2586 is used as a flyback regulator (see the Application Hints section for more information).

Note 3: The junction temperature of the device (TJ) is a function of the ambient temperature (TA), the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (qJA), and the power

dissipation of the device (PD). A thermal shutdown will occur if the temperature exceeds the maximum junction temperature of the device: PD x qJA + TA(MAX) ³ TJ- (MAX). For a safe thermal design, check that the maximum power dissipated by the device is less than: PD £ [TJ(MAX) − T A(MAX)]/qJA. When calculating the maximum allowable power dissipation, derate the maximum junction temperature Ð this ensures a margin of safety in the thermal design.

Note 4: External components such as the diode, inductor, input and output capacitors can affect switching regulator performance. When the LM2586 is used as shown in Figures 1, 2, system performance will be as specified by the system parameters.

Note 5: All room temperature limits are 100% production tested, and all limits at temperature extremes are guaranteed via correlation using standard Statistical Quality Control (SQC) methods.

Note 6: A 1.0 MW resistor is connected to the compensation pin (which is the error amplifier output) to ensure accuracy in measuring AVOL.

Note 7: To measure this parameter, the feedback voltage is set to a low value, depending on the output version of the device, to force the error amplifier output high and the switch on.

Note 8: To measure this parameter, the feedback voltage is set to a high value, depending on the output version of the device, to force the error amplifier output low and the switch off.

Note 9: To measure the worst-case error amplifier output current, the LM2586 is tested with the feedback voltage set to its low value (Note 7) and at its high value (Note 8).

Note 10: When testing the minimum value, do not sink current from this pin Ð isolate it with a diode. If current is drawn from this pin, the frequency adjust circui t will begin operation (see Figure 41).

Note 11: Junction to ambient thermal resistance (no external heat sink) for the 7 lead TO-220 package mounted vertically, with 1¤2 inch leads in a socket, or on a PC board with minimum copper area.

Note 12: Junction to ambient thermal resistance (no external heat sink) for the 7 lead TO-220 package mounted vertically, with 1¤2 inch leads soldered to a PC board containing approximately 4 square inches of (1 oz.) copper area surrounding the leads.

Note 13: Junction to ambient thermal resistance for the 7 lead TO-263 mounted horizontally against a PC board area of 0.136 square inches (the same size as the TO-263 package) of 1 oz. (0.0014 in. thick) copper.

Note 14: Junction to ambient thermal resistance for the 7 lead TO-263 mounted horizontally against a PC board area of 0.4896 square inches (3.6 times the area of the TO-263 package) of 1 oz. (0.0014 in. thick) copper.

Note 15: Junction to ambient thermal resistance for the 7 lead TO-263 mounted horizontally against a PC board copper area of 1.0064 square inches (7.4 times the area of the TO-263 package) of 1 oz. (0.0014 in. thick) copper. Additional copper area will reduce thermal resistance further. See the thermal model in Switchers Made Simple® software.
