The usual step-up configuration for the LT1107 is shown VIN + R3 in Figure 1. The LT1107 first pulls SW1 low causing VIN – C2 100Ω VCESAT to appear across L1. A current then builds up in L1.

The usual hookup for an LT1107 based down mode, output voltage should be limited to 6.2V or step-down converter is shown in Figure 2. less. Higher output voltages can be accommodated by inserting a 1N5818 diode in series with the SW2 pin When the switch turns on, SW2 pulls up to VIN – VSW. This (anode connected to SW2). puts a voltage across L1 equal to VIN – VSW – VOUT, causing a current to build up in L1. At the end of the switch

ON time, the current in L1 is equal to: The LT1107 can be configured as a positive-to-negative V converter (Figure 3), or a negative-to-positive converter I N − V − V SW OUT I = t PEAK ON ( ) 22 (Figure 4). In Figure 3, the arrangement is very similar to L a step-down, except that the high side of the feedback is referred to ground. This level shifts the output negative. As
