The LM2594M-12/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a step-down voltage regulator, capable of supplying up to 0.8A of output current, making it suitable for low power applications. The device is available in SOIC-8 (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) and D²PAK packages, and features a wide input voltage range of 8V-52V. With its integrated power MOSFET, the LM2594M-12/NOPB provides a high efficiency at load levels from 0% to 100%, making it an attractive solution for various power management and conversion applications. The device has a programmable output voltage via two resistors or a voltage divider, and options for three operating modes to improve system efficiency. Additional features include an enhanced transient response and an over current protection, both of which can be disabled if not needed. The part is fully RoHS compliant and is an ideal solution for industrial, automotive, and consumer applications.
