Application Hints
C. Calculate the minimum value of C
D. Calculate the maximum ESR of the +V
output capacitors in parallel.
This formula can also be used to calculate the maximum
ESR of a single output regulator.
At this point, refer to this same section in the Step-Up Regu-
lator Design Procedurefor more information regarding the
selection of C
3. Output Voltage Selection
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

4. Diode Selection
The switching diode in a flyback converter must withstand
the reverse voltage specified by the following equation.
A suitable diode must have a reverse voltage rating greater
than this. In addition it must be rated for more than the aver-
age and peak diode currents listed in Figure 19 .
5. Input Capacitor Selection
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 V
most applications, a low ESR, 1.0 µF cap will be sufficient, if
it is connected very close to the V
