Working Principles

The LM2575-12BN is a step-down switching regulator that utilizes a pulse-width modulation (PWM) control scheme. It operates by rapidly switching an internal power transistor on and off to regulate the output voltage. The feedback pin (FB) is used to set the desired output voltage, which is compared to an internal reference voltage. The regulator adjusts the duty cycle of the switching transistor to maintain a stable output voltage.
