STEP-UP (BOOST) REGULATOR
Figure 32 shows the LM1577-ADJ/LM2577-ADJ used as a Step-Up Regulator. This is a switching regulator used
for producing an output voltage greater than the input supply voltage. The LM1577-12/LM2577-12 and LM1577-
15/LM2577-15 can also be used for step-up regulators with 12V or 15V outputs (respectively), by tying the
feedback pin directly to the regulator output.
A basic explanation of how it works is as follows. The LM1577/LM2577 turns its output switch on and off at a
frequency of 52 kHz, and this creates energy in the inductor (L). When the NPN switch turns on, the inductor
current charges up at a rate of VIN/L, storing current in the inductor. When the switch turns off, the lower end of
the inductor flies above VIN, discharging its current through diode (D) into the output capacitor (COUT) at a rate of
(VOUT VIN)/L. Thus, energy stored in the inductor during the switch on time is transferred to the output during
the switch off time. The output voltage is controlled by the amount of energy transferred which, in turn, is
controlled by modulating the peak inductor current. This is done by feeding back a portion of the output voltage
to the error amp, which amplifies the difference between the feedback voltage and a 1.230V reference. The error
amp output voltage is compared to a voltage proportional to the switch current (i.e., inductor current during the
switch on time).
The comparator terminates the switch on time when the two voltages are equal, thereby controlling the peak
switch current to maintain a constant output voltage.
Voltage and current waveforms for this circuit are shown in Figure 33, and formulas for calculating them are
given in Table 1.

STEP-UP REGULATOR DESIGN PROCEDURE
The following design procedure can be used to select the appropriate external components for the circuit in
Figure 32, based on these system requirements.
Given:
VIN (min) = Minimum input supply voltage
VOUT = Regulated output voltage
ILOAD(max) = Maximum output load current
Before proceeding any further, determine if the LM1577/LM2577 can provide these values of VOUT and
ILOAD(max) when operating with the minimum value of VIN. The upper limits for VOUT and ILOAD(max) are given by
the following equations.
where
VOUT 60V
VOUT 10 × VIN(min) (3)
These limits must be greater than or equal to the values specified in this application.
1. Inductor Selection (L)
A. Voltage Options:
1. For 12V or 15V output
From Figure 34 (for 12V output) or Figure 35 (for 15V output), identify inductor code for region
indicated by VIN (min) and ILOAD (max). The shaded region indicates conditions for which the LM1577/LM2577
output switch would be operating beyond its switch current rating. The minimum operating voltage for the
LM1577/LM2577 is 3.5V.
From here, proceed to step C.
2. For Adjustable version
Preliminary calculations:
The inductor selection is based on the calculation of the following three parameters:
D(max), the maximum switch duty cycle (0 D0.9):
(4)
where VF= 0.5V for Schottky diodes and 0.8V for fast recovery diodes (typically);
ET, the product of volts × time that charges the inductor:
(5)
IIND,DC, the average inductor current under full load;
(6)
B. Identify Inductor Value:
1. From Figure 36, identify the inductor code for the region indicated by the intersection of E•T and IIND,DC.
This code gives the inductor value in microhenries. The L or H prefix signifies whether the inductor is rated
for a maximum E•T of 90 V•μs (L) or 250 V•μs (H).
2. If D < 0.85, go on to step C. If D 0.85, then calculate the minimum inductance needed to ensure the
switching regulator's stability:
(7)
If LMIN is smaller than the inductor value found in step B1, go on to step C. Otherwise, the inductor value found in
step B1 is too low; an appropriate inductor code should be obtained from the graph as follows:
1. Find the lowest value inductor that is greater than LMIN.

and H regions, select the inductor with an H prefix.

Note: These charts assume that the inductor ripple current is approximately 20% to 30% of the average inductor
current (when the regulator is under full load). Greater ripple current causes higher peak switch currents and greater
output ripple voltage; lower ripple current is achieved with larger-value inductors. The factor of 20 to 30% is chosen as
a convenient balance between the two extremes.
Figure 36. LM1577-ADJ/LM2577-ADJ Inductor Selection Graph
C. Select an inductor from Table 2 which cross-references the inductor codes to the part numbers of three
different manufacturers. Complete specifications for these inductors are available from the respective
manufacturers. The inductors listed in this table have the following characteristics:
AIE: ferrite, pot-core inductors; Benefits of this type are low electro-magnetic interference (EMI), small
physical size, and very low power dissipation (core loss). Be careful not to operate these inductors too
far beyond their maximum ratings for E•T and peak current, as this will saturate the core.
Pulse: powdered iron, toroid core inductors; Benefits are low EMI and ability to withstand E•T and peak
current above rated value better than ferrite cores.
Renco: ferrite, bobbin-core inductors; Benefits are low cost and best ability to withstand E•T and peak
current above rated value. Be aware that these inductors generate more EMI than the other types, and
this may interfere with signals sensitive to noise.

2. Compensation Network (RC, CC) and Output Capacitor (COUT) Selection
RCand CCform a pole-zero compensation network that stabilizes the regulator. The values of RCand CCare
mainly dependant on the regulator voltage gain, ILOAD(max), L and COUT. The following procedure calculates values
for RC, CC, and COUT that ensure regulator stability. Be aware that this procedure doesn't necessarily result in RC
and CCthat provide optimum compensation. In order to ensure optimum compensation, one of the standard
procedures for testing loop stability must be used, such as measuring VOUT transient response when pulsing
ILOAD (see Figure 39).
A. First, calculate the maximum value for RC.
(8)
Select a resistor less than or equal to this value, and it should also be no greater than 3 kΩ.
B. Calculate the minimum value for COUT using the following two equations.
(9)
The larger of these two values is the minimum value that ensures stability.
C. Calculate the minimum value of CC.

The compensation capacitor is also part of the soft start circuitry. When power to the regulator is turned on, the
switch duty cycle is allowed to rise at a rate controlled by this capacitor (with no control on the duty cycle, it
would immediately rise to 90%, drawing huge currents from the input power supply). In order to operate properly,
the soft start circuit requires CC0.22 μF.
The value of the output filter capacitor is normally large enough to require the use of aluminum electrolytic
capacitors. Table 3 lists several different types that are recommended for switching regulators, and the following
parameters are used to select the proper capacitor.
Working Voltage (WVDC): Choose a capacitor with a working voltage at least 20% higher than the regulator
output voltage.
Ripple Current: This is the maximum RMS value of current that charges the capacitor during each switching
cycle. For step-up and flyback regulators, the formula for ripple current is
(11)
Choose a capacitor that is rated at least 50% higher than this value at 52 kHz.
Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) : This is the primary cause of output ripple voltage, and it also affects the
values of RCand CCneeded to stabilize the regulator. As a result, the preceding calculations for CCand RCare
only valid if ESR doesn't exceed the maximum value specified by the following equations.
(12)
Select a capacitor with ESR, at 52 kHz, that is less than or equal to the lower value calculated. Most electrolytic
capacitors specify ESR at 120 Hz which is 15% to 30% higher than at 52 kHz. Also, be aware that ESR
increases by a factor of 2 when operating at 20°C.
In general, low values of ESR are achieved by using large value capacitors (C 470 μF), and capacitors with
high WVDC, or by paralleling smaller-value capacitors.
3. Output Voltage Selection (R1 and R2)
This section is for applications using the LM1577-ADJ/LM2577-ADJ. Skip this section if the LM1577-12/LM2577-
12 or LM1577-15/LM2577-15 is being used.
With the LM1577-ADJ/LM2577-ADJ, the output voltage is given by
VOUT = 1.23V (1 + R1/R2) (13)
Resistors R1 and R2 divide the output down so it can be compared with the LM1577-ADJ/LM2577-ADJ internal
1.23V reference. For a given desired output voltage VOUT, select R1 and R2 so that
(14)
4. Input Capacitor Selection (CIN)
The switching action in the step-up regulator causes a triangular ripple current to be drawn from the supply
source. This in turn causes noise to appear on the supply voltage. For proper operation of the LM1577, the input
voltage should be decoupled. Bypassing the Input Voltage pin directly to ground with a good quality, low ESR,
0.1 μF capacitor (leads as short as possible) is normally sufficient.

If the LM1577 is located far from the supply source filter capacitors, an additional large electrolytic capacitor (e.g.
47 μF) is often required.
5. Diode Selection (D)
The switching diode used in the boost regulator must withstand a reverse voltage equal to the circuit output
voltage, and must conduct the peak output current of the LM2577. A suitable diode must have a minimum
reverse breakdown voltage greater than the circuit output voltage, and should be rated for average and peak
current greater than ILOAD(max) and ID(PK). Schottky barrier diodes are often favored for use in switching regulators.
Their low forward voltage drop allows higher regulator efficiency than if a (less expensive) fast recovery diode
was used. See Table 4 for recommended part numbers and voltage ratings of 1A and 3A diodes.

FLYBACK REGULATOR
A Flyback regulator can produce single or multiple output voltages that are lower or greater than the input supply
voltage. Figure 42 shows the LM1577/LM2577 used as a flyback regulator with positive and negative regulated
outputs. Its operation is similar to a step-up regulator, except the output switch contols the primary current of a
flyback transformer. Note that the primary and secondary windings are out of phase, so no current flows through
secondary when current flows through the primary. This allows the primary to charge up the transformer core
when the switch is on. When the switch turns off, the core discharges by sending current through the secondary,
and this produces voltage at the outputs. The output voltages are controlled by adjusting the peak primary
current, as described in the STEP-UP (BOOST) REGULATOR section.
Voltage and current waveforms for this circuit are shown in Figure 41, and formulas for calculating them are
given in Table 5.
FLYBACK REGULATOR DESIGN PROCEDURE
1. Transformer Selection
A family of standardized flyback transformers is available for creating flyback regulators that produce dual output
voltages, from ±10V to ±15V, as shown in Figure 42.Table 6 lists these transformers with the input voltage,
output voltages and maximum load current they are designed for.
2. Compensation Network (CC, RC) and
Output Capacitor (COUT) Selection
As explained in the Step-Up Regulator Design Procedure, CC, RCand COUT must be selected as a group. The
following procedure is for a dual output flyback regulator with equal turns ratios for each secondary (i.e., both
output voltages have the same magnitude). The equations can be used for a single output regulator by changing
ILOAD(max) to ILOAD(max) in the following equations.
A. First, calculate the maximum value for RC.

The primary of a flyback transformer draws discontinuous pulses of current from the input supply. As a result, a
flyback regulator generates more noise at the input supply than a step-up regulator, and this requires a larger
bypass capacitor to decouple the LM1577/LM2577 VIN pin from this noise. For most applications, a low ESR, 1.0
μF cap will be sufficient, if it is connected very close to the VIN and Ground pins.

In addition to this bypass cap, a larger capacitor (47 μF) should be used where the flyback transformer
connects to the input supply. This will attenuate noise which may interfere with other circuits connected to the
same input supply voltage.
6. Snubber Circuit
A “snubber” circuit is required when operating from input voltages greater than 10V, or when using a transformer
with LP200 μH. This circuit clamps a voltage spike from the transformer primary that occurs immediately after
the output switch turns off. Without it, the switch voltage may exceed the 65V maximum rating. As shown in
Figure 43, the snubber consists of a fast recovery diode, and a parallel RC. The RC values are selected for
switch clamp voltage (VCLAMP) that is 5V to 10V greater than VSW(OFF). Use the following equations to calculate R
and C;
(29)
Power dissipation (and power rating) of the resistor is;
(30)
The fast recovery diode must have a reverse voltage rating greater than VCLAMP.
