Typical Applications

RS-232 LINE DRIVER POWER SUPPLY
The power supply, shown in Figure 23, operates from an
input voltage as low as 4.2V (5V nominal), and delivers an
output of
The circuit provides a load regulation of
to 100% of full load) and a line regulation of
notable features include a cycle-by-cycle current limit and an
output voltage ripple of less than 40 mVp-p.
A unique feature of this circuit is its use of feedback from
both outputs. This dual feedback configuration results in a
sharing of the output voltage regulation by each output so
that neither side becomes unbalanced as in single feedback
systems. In addition, since both sides are regulated, it is not
necessary to use a linear regulator for output regulation.
The feedback resistors, R2 and R3, may be selected as
follows by assuming a value of 10 kΩ for R1;
R2 = (V
R3 = (|V
Actually, the currents used to program the values for the
feedback resistors may vary from 40 µA to 60 µA, as long as
their sum is equal to the 100 µA necessary to establish the
1V threshold across R1. Ideally, these currents should be
equal (50 µA each) for optimal control. However, as was
done here, they may be mismatched in order to use standard
resistor values. This results in a slight mismatch of regulation
between the two outputs.
The current limit resistor, R4, is selected by dividing the
current limit threshold voltage by the maximum peak current
level in the output switch. For our purposes R4 = 110 mV/
750 mA = 0.15Ω. A value of 0.1Ω was used.

Capacitor C1 sets the oscillator frequency and is selected
from Figure 1.
Capacitor C2 serves as a compensation capacitor for syn-
chronous operation and a value of 10 to 50 pF should be
sufficient for most applications.
