Typical Flyback Regulator Applications
Step-Up (Boost) Regulator Operation
Figure 30 shows the LM2586 used as a step-up (boost)
regulator. This is a switching regulator that produces an out-
put voltage greater than the input supply voltage.
A brief explanation of how the LM2586 Boost Regulator
works is as follows (refer to Figure 30 ). When the NPN
switch turns on, the inductor current ramps up at the rate of
V
By adding a small number of external components (as shown in Figure 30 ), the LM2586 can be used to produce a regulated out-
put voltage that is greater than the applied input voltage. The switching waveforms observed during the operation of this circuit
are shown in Figure 31 . Typical performance of this regulator is shown in Figure 32 .

tor during the switch on time is transferred to the output dur-
ing the switch off time. The output voltage is controlled by
adjusting the peak switch current, as described in the flyback
regulator section.
