LM2576S-5.0

HGSEMI · DC-DC Converters · TO-263-5

LM2576S-5.0 from HGSEMI, in a TO-263-5. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 VIN power_in Input supply voltage. Operating range 4.5V to 40V for LM2576 (up to 60V for LM2576HV). Absolute maximum 45V (63V HV). Bypass with a suitable input capacitor close to this pin.
2 Output output Switching output from the internal 3A power switch. Connects to the external catch diode (e.g. 1N5822) and the smoothing inductor (typ. 100µH). Steady-state output voltage may swing down to -1V relative to GND.
3 GND power_in Device ground reference for the internal regulator, oscillator, error amplifier, and power switch return.
4 Feedback input Output voltage feedback input to the internal error amplifier. On fixed-voltage versions (like the -5.0), tie directly to the regulated output node so the internal divider senses VOUT (internal 1.23V band-gap reference).
5 ON/OFF input TTL-compatible active-low shutdown input. Low or floating enables the regulator; drive high to enter low-power standby mode (~50µA typ). Input range -0.3V to +VIN.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
lm2576s-5-0.step 180 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
lm2576s-5-0-etched.step 2.0 MB You want the part with LM2576S-5.0 already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 536 faces against 135 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.

Provenance

Data extracted from the manufacturer datasheet, not a distributor listing:

  • Datasheet: HGSEMI datasheet (18 pp, sha256 10275fb18a78ad8b, retrieved 2026-08-17, tier: lcsc)
  • Extractor: ds2sf (Claude). Every pin and dimension is cited to a datasheet page; it refuses to fabricate.
  • CAD: KiCad official libraries (CC-BY-SA 4.0).
