LT1572 Datasheet PDF - Linear Technology

DESCRIPTION
The LT ®1572 is a 1.25A 100kHz monolithic switching regulator with on-board switch and catch diode included in one package. It combines an LT1172 with a 1A Schottky catch diode. The LT1572 can be operated in all standard switching configurations, including boost, buck, SEPIC, flyback, forward, inverting and “Cuk”. All necessary control, oscillator and protection circuitry is included on the die with the high efficiency switch. This makes the part extremely easy to use and provides “bustproof” operation similar to that obtained with 3-pin linear regulators.
