L5973D Application circuit
5 Application circuit
In figure 6 is shown the demonstration board application circuit, where the input supply
voltage, VCC, can range from 4 V to 25 V due to the rated voltage of the input capacitor and
the output voltage is adjustable from 1.235 V to VCC.

Application ideas L5973D
When an output voltage below the internal reference (1.235 V) is required, the circuit
reported in the figure 18 can been used. In this case the minimum voltage reachable is 0.6 V
and can be easily calculated with the following formula:
VOUT = VFB - [(VREF - VFB)x(R2 / R1)]
If the load is not present, a resistor connected between VOUT and GND is required in order
to avoid that the voltage across COUT increases.
The value of this resistor has to be calculated taking into account that the current flowing
through this resistance has to be higher than the current flowing through R2.
