XL2596 3.3Volt PWM Stepdown DC/DC Buck Converter TO-220-5 IC

XL2596 3.3Volt PWM Stepdown DC/DC Buck Converter TO-220-5 IC

The XL2596 is a high-efficiency, step-down (buck) DC-DC converter IC that operates using pulse width modulation (PWM). It is designed to provide a stable 3.3V output from higher input voltages, making it suitable for power management in various electronic devices. The IC can efficiently step down the input voltage while maintaining low heat dissipation due to its high efficiency, typically around 90%.
The XL2596 is available in a TO-220-5 package, which is commonly used in power electronics due to its excellent thermal performance and ease of mounting onto a heatsink. This makes it ideal for applications requiring compact design with good heat dissipation.
