AT ORFigure 32 shows the LM1577-ADJ/LM2577-ADJ used as a Step-Up
Regulator. This is a switching regulator usedfor producing an
output voltage greater than the input supply voltage. The
LM1577-12/LM2577-12 and LM1577-15/LM2577-15canalsobeusedfor
step-upregulatorswith12Vor 15Voutputs(respectively),

output.Abasicexplanationofhowitworksisasfollows.TheLM1577/LM2577turnsitsoutputswitchonandoffatafrequencyof
52kHz, andthiscreatesenergyintheinductor(L).
WhentheNPNswitchturnson, theinductorcurrent charges up at a rate of
VIN/L, storing current in the inductor. When the switch turns off,
the lower end ofthe 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 duringtheswitchoff
time. Theoutput voltageiscontrolledbytheamount of
energytransferredwhich, inturn, iscontrolled by modulating the peak
inductor current. This is done by feeding back a portion of the
output voltageto the error amp, which amplifies the difference
between the feedback voltage and a 1.230V reference. The erroramp
output voltage is compared to a voltage proportionalto the switch
current (i.e., inductor current during theswitch on
time).Thecomparatorterminatestheswitchontimewhenthetwovoltagesareequal,

on the calculation of the following three parameters:D(max), the
maximum switch duty cycle (0 D 0.9):(4)where VF = 0.5V for Schottky
diodes and 0.8V for fast recovery diodes (typically);E T, 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 ET and IIND,DC.This code gives the
inductor value in microhenries. The L or H prefix signifies whether
the inductor is ratedfor a maximum ET of 90 Vs (L) or 250 Vs (H).2.
If D < 0.85, go on to step C. If D 0.85, then calculate the
minimum inductance needed to ensure theswitching regulator's
stability:(7)If LMIN is smaller than the inductor value found in

current is approximately 20% to 30% of the average inductorcurrent
(when the regulator is under full load). Greater ripple current
causes higher peak switch currents and greateroutput ripple
voltage; lower ripple current is achieved with larger-value

Table 2 which cross-references the inductor codes to the part
numbers of threedifferent manufacturers. Complete specifications
for these inductors are available from the respectivemanufacturers.
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), smallphysical
size, and very low power dissipation (core loss). Be careful not to
operate these inductors toofar beyond their maximum ratings for ET
and peak current, as this will saturate the core. Pulse: powdered
iron, toroid core inductors; Benefits are low EMI and ability to
withstand ET and peakcurrent above rated value better than ferrite
cores. Renco: ferrite, bobbin-core inductors; Benefits are low cost
and best ability to withstand ET and peakcurrent above rated value.
Be aware that these inductors generate more EMI than the other
types, andthis may interfere with signals sensitive to noise.18

device recommended for new designs.LIFEBUY: TI has announced that
the device will be discontinued, and a lifetime-buy period is in
effect.NRND: Not recommended for new designs. Device is in
production to support existing customers, but TI does not recommend
using this part in a new design.PREVIEW: Device has been announced
but is not in production. Samples may or may not be
available.OBSOLETE: TI has discontinued the production of the
device. (2) Eco Plan - The planned eco-friendly classification:
Pb-Free (RoHS), Pb-Free (RoHS Exempt), or Green (RoHS & no
Sb/Br) - please check http://www.ti.com/productcontent for the
latest availabilityinformation and additional product content
details.TBD:The Pb-Free/Green conversion plan has not been
defined.Pb-Free (RoHS): TI's terms "Lead-Free" or "Pb-Free" mean
semiconductor products that are compatible with the current RoHS
requirements for all 6 substances, including the requirement
thatlead not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous materials. Where
designed to be soldered at high temperatures, TI Pb-Free products
are suitable for use in specified lead-free processes.Pb-Free (RoHS
Exempt): This component has a RoHS exemption for either 1)
lead-based flip-chip solder bumps used between the die and package,
or 2) lead-baseddie adhesive used betweenthe die and leadframe. The
component is otherwise considered Pb-Free (RoHS compatible) as
defined above.Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br): TI defines "Green" to
mean Pb-Free (RoHS compatible), and free of Bromine (Br)and
Antimony (Sb) based flame retardants (Br or Sb do not exceed 0.1%
by weightin homogeneous material) (3) MSL, Peak Temp. - The
Moisture Sensitivity Level rating according to the JEDEC industry
standard classifications, and peak solder temperature. (4) There
may be additional marking, which relates to the logo, the lot trace
code information, or the environmental category on the device. (5)
Multiple Device Markings will be inside parentheses. Only one
Device Marking contained in parentheses and separated by a "~" will
appear on a device. If a line is indented then it is a
continuationof the previous line and the two combined represent the
entire Device Marking for that device. (6) Lead/Ball Finish -
Orderable Devices may have multiple material finish options. Finish
options are separated by a vertical ruled line. Lead/Ball Finish
