A complete step-down switching regulator schematic, using
the LM3524D, is illustrated in Figure 15. Transistors Q1 and
Q2 have been added to boost the output to 1A. The 5V reg-
ulator of the LM3524D has been divided in half to bias the
error amplifier's non-inverting input to within its common-
mode range. Since each output transistor is on for half the
period, actually 45%, they have been paralleled to allow
longer possible duty cycle, up to 90%. This makes a lower
possible input voltage. The output voltage is set by:
