APPLICATIONS
going into Pin 12 being negligible, the following expres-
sion is used for setting the trip limit:
LTC1574 Adjustable Applications
The LTC1574 develops a 1.25V reference voltage between
the feedback terminal (Pin 10) and ground (see Figure 3).
By selecting resistor R1, a constant current is caused to
flow through R1 and R2 to set the overall output voltage.
The regulated output voltage is determined by:
For most applications, a 30k resistor is suggested for R1.
To prevent stray pickup, a 100pF capacitor is suggested
across R1 located close to the LTC1574.
Inverting Applications
The LTC1574 can easily be set up for a negative output
voltage. If – 5V is desired, the LTC1574-5 is ideal for this
application as it requires the least components. Figure 4
shows the schematic for this application. Note that the
output voltage is now taken off the GND pins. Therefore,
the maximum input voltage is now determined by the

Low Noise Regulators
In some applications it is important not to introduce any
switching noise within the audio frequency range. Due to
the nature of the LTC1574 during Burst Mode
there is a possibility that the regulator will introduce audio
noise at some load currents. To circumvent this problem,
a feed-forward capacitor can be used to shift the noise
spectrum up and out of the audio band. Figure 5 shows the
low noise connection with C2 being the feed-forward
capacitor. The peak-to-peak output ripple is reduced to
30mV over the entire load range. A toroidal surface mount

difference between the absolute maximum voltage rating
and the output voltage. A maximum of 12V is specified in
Figure 4, giving the circuit 1.5V of headroom for V
that the circuit can operate from a minimum of 4V,
making it ideal for a four NiCd cell application. For a
higher output current circuit, please refer to the Typical
Applications section.
