8.1.10 Negative Boost Regulator

Another variation on the buck-boost topology is the negative boost configuration. The circuit in Figure 8-2 accepts an input voltage ranging from −5 V to −12 V and provides a regulated −12-V output. Input voltages greater than −12 V causes the output to rise above −12 V, but does not damage the regulator.

Typical Load Current 400 mA for VIN = −5.2 V 750 mA for VIN = −7 V Heat sink can be required.
Figure 8-2 Negative Boost

Because of the boosting function of this type of regulator, the switch current is relatively high, especially at low input voltages. Output load current limitations are a result of the maximum current rating of the switch. Also, boost regulators can not provide current-limiting load protection in the event of a shorted load, so some other means (such as a fuse) can be necessary.
