Positive regulator makes dual negative output converter - 06/26/03 EDN-Design
Ideas: Some systems, such as optical networks, require more than one negative
voltage. A common procedure is to boost the main negative supply of -5V to -10V and
then reduce it with a linear regulator to -9V. The -5V itself comes from a positive
supply, typically 5 or 12V. Independently creating each of the two negative voltages
requires the use.....(design idea added 1/05) |

Positive regulator makes negative DC/DC converter - 12/26/02 EDN-Design Ideas:
Power-supply designers can choose from a plethora of available positive buck

ICs that have positive-reference feedback voltages far outnumber these
negative-feedback regulators.....(design idea added 1/05) |
