LM5010
High Voltage 1A Step Down Switching Regulator
General Description
The LM5010 Step Down Switching Regulator features all the
functions needed to implement a low cost, efficient, buck
bias regulator capable of supplying in excess of 1A load
current. This high voltage regulator contains an N-Channel
Buck Switch, and is available in thermally enhanced LLP-10
and TSSOP-14EP packages. The hysteretic regulation
scheme requires no loop compensation, results in fast load
transient response, and simplifies circuit implementation.
The operating frequency remains constant with line and load
variations due to the inverse relationship between the input
voltage and the on-time. The valley current limit detection is
set at 1.25A. Additional features include: V
CC
under-voltage
lockout, thermal shutdown, gate drive under-voltage lockout,
and maximum duty cycle limiter.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings are conditions under which operation of the device
is intended to be functional. For guaranteed specifications and test conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics.
Note 2: The human body model is a 100pF capacitor discharged through a 1.5k
resistor into each pin.
Note 3: V
CC
provides bias for the internal gate drive and control circuits. Device thermal limitations limit external loading.
Note 4: For detailed information on soldering plastic TSSOP and LLP packages refer to the Packaging Data Book available from National Semiconductor
Corporation.
Note 5: Typical specifications represent the most likely parametric norm at 25C operation.
Note 6: All limits are guaranteed. All electrical characteristics having room temperature limits are tested during production with T
A
= 25C. All hot and cold limits are
guaranteed by correlating the electrical characteristics to process and temperature variations and applying statistical process control.
