LM2595T-5.0 Original NSC Step Down Switching Regulator IC (5V, 1A, TO 220)

The LM2595T-5.0 is a fixed 5V step down switching regulator IC manufactured by National Semiconductor (NSC). It is designed for efficient DC DC voltage conversion and can deliver up to 1A output current with suitable external components. Operating at a fixed switching frequency of 150kHz, the regulator provides higher efficiency than conventional linear regulators. Its TO 220 package makes it suitable for power supply circuits, embedded electronics, industrial control systems and voltage regulation applications requiring a stable 5V DC output.
