Description

The L4978 is a 2A Step-Down (Buck) Switching Regulator IC produced by STMicroelectronics. It is designed to provide high-efficiency, low-noise voltage regulation in a wide range of power applications. This IC is well-suited for powering devices that require a stable and efficient DC output voltage, and it operates using pulse-width modulation (PWM) to regulate the voltage.

Features

  • Step-Down Voltage Regulator (Buck Converter): Converts a higher DC voltage to a lower DC voltage efficiently.
  • Output Current: Capable of delivering up to 2A of continuous output current.
  • Wide Input Voltage Range: Works with input voltages from 8V to 40V, making it versatile for various systems with different input voltage requirements.
  • High Efficiency: Achieves efficiency levels up to 90% due to its switching regulator design, significantly reducing heat dissipation compared to linear regulators.
  • Adjustable Output Voltage: The output voltage can be adjusted from 5V to 40V using external resistors, providing flexibility to meet different voltage requirements.
  • Low Ripple and Noise: Provides low ripple and noise on the output, making it suitable for sensitive electronics that require clean power.
  • Overcurrent Protection: Built-in protection against overcurrent and thermal overload conditions, improving the reliability of the power supply.
  • Short Circuit Protection: Automatically shuts down or limits current in case of a short circuit on the output.
  • Thermal Shutdown: The IC features thermal protection, ensuring the regulator does not overheat during high-load conditions.
  • SMD Package: The IC is available in a Surface-Mount Device (SMD) package, making it easy to integrate into modern PCB designs with compact form factors.
