LM2678 Description

The LM2678 series of regulators are monolithic integrated circuits that perform all of the tasks of a buck switching regulator while driving up to 5A loads. The IC has high efficiency of over 90% and excellent load and line regulation. The LM2678 has three fixed output voltages (3.3V, 5V, and 12V) as well as an adjustable output version. Thermal shutdown, current limiting, and ON/OFF control are only a few of the functions included in the IC.

LM2678 Circuit

LM2678 Application Circuit

The regulator's input voltage is sent into pin 2 of the IC. Input bye-pass capacitors C1 to C4 are used. When the IC's control switch is turned on first, they also provide current to it. Capacitor C5 enhances the internal MOSFET's gate drive and turns it fully ON. This reduces switching losses and aids in the attainment of high efficiency. Pin7 is the ON/OFF pin, and if this pin is connected to the ground, the regulator will shut down. During shutdown mode, the current drain will be less than 50uA. As a freewheeling diode, the Schottky diode D1 is employed. The current from inductor L1 travels through this diode when the control switch (internal MOSFET) is turned off. C6 and C7 capacitors, as well as output filter capacitors.
