I have +12 from a wart, and I need -1.2 and -5 to power some analog stuff and ECL. I can do this https://www.dropbox.com/s/3b0iff93k1k2ct6/TPS_Inv_1.JPG?raw=1 Problem is, I don't want to run Tina and there is no LT Spice model. It may go into burp mode at my modest load currents, so I could get a lot of output ripple. It might want some lead compensation too. I guess I should breadboard it. This will be noisy, so maybe I'll put the switchers on the bottom of the board, and I'd have the ground plane between them and the jitter-sensitive stuff. We have MIC4690 in stock. That might be a better choice. Again, no model. -- John Larkin Highland Technology, Inc picosecond timing precision measurement jlarkin att highlandtechnology dott com http://www.highlandtechnology.com

So get one that's sync rect with a force-CCM option.

That might work. Actually, there are very few negative-to-negative switching regulators around. -- John Larkin Highland Technology, Inc lunatic fringe electronics

This little one I'm considering would have +12, +5, +4, -1.2, and -5. And one variable from 2.5 to 6 or so. From a 12 volt wart, probably. Both neg supplies would be 100 mA or so. Fast parts are power hogs. In a box this size: http://www.highlandtechnology.com/DSS/J730DS.shtml I'm thinking I have to put the power supplies on the bottom of the board. I can move the board up a bit and have a 0.2" gap below. Manufacturing doesn't mind parts on both sides. -- John Larkin Highland Technology, Inc lunatic fringe electronics
