Typical Applications

The circuit of Figure 19converts a 5V supply into a 15V sup-
ply with 150 mA of output current, a load regulation of 14 mV
(30 mA to 140 mA), and a line regulation of 35 mV (4.5V

D1 is a Schottky type diode such as a IN5818 or IN5819.
L1 is found as described in the buck converter section, using
the inductance chart for Figure 16for the boost configuration
and 20% discontinuity.
INVERTING REGULATOR
Figure 20 shows the basic configuration for an inverting
regulator. The input voltage is of a positive polarity, but the
output is negative. The output may be less than, equal to, or
greater in magnitude than the input. The relationship be-
tween the magnitude of the input voltage and the output volt-
age is V

Figure 21 shows an LM1578A configured as a 5V to 15V
polarity inverter with an output current of 300 mA, a load
regulation of 44 mV (60 mA to 300 mA) and a line regulation
