(1) Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating ratings indicate conditions the
device is intended to be functional, but device parameter specifications may not be ensured under these conditions. For ensured
specifications and test conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics.
(2) If Military/Aerospace specified devices are required, please contact the TI Sales Office/ Distributors for availability and specifications.
(3) Note that switch current and output current are not identical in a step-up regulator. Output current cannot be internally limited when the
LM2587 is used as a step-up regulator. To prevent damage to the switch, the output current must be externally limited to 5A. However,
output current is internally limited when the LM2587 is used as a flyback regulator (see the Application Hints section for more
information).
(4) The junction temperature of the device (TJ) is a function of the ambient temperature (TA), the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance
(θJA), and the power dissipation of the device (PD). A thermal shutdown will occur if the temperature exceeds the maximum junction
temperature of the device: PD × θJA + TA(MAX) ≥ TJ(MAX). For a safe thermal design, check that the maximum power dissipated by the
device is less than: PD ≤ [TJ(MAX) − TA(MAX))]/θJA. When calculating the maximum allowable power dissipation, derate the maximum
junction temperature—this ensures a margin of safety in the thermal design.

(1) External components such as the diode, inductor, input and output capacitors can affect switching regulator performance. When the
LM2587 is used as shown in Figure 7 and Figure 8, system performance will be as specified by the system parameters.
(2) All room temperature limits are 100% production tested, and all limits at temperature extremes are specified via correlation using
standard Statistical Quality Control (SQC) methods.
(3) A 1.0 MΩ resistor is connected to the compensation pin (which is the error amplifier output) to ensure accuracy in measuring AVOL
