Damping LX
LXN and LXP may ring at the conclusion of each
switching cycle when the inductor current falls to zero.
Typically the ringing waveform appears only on LX_
and has no effect on output ripple and noise. If LX_
ringing is still objectionable, it may be damped by con-
necting a series RC in parallel with L1. Typically 1kΩ in
series with 100pF provides good damping with only 3%
efficiency degradation. See Figure 5.

Setting the Output Voltage
The resistor-divider formed by R4 and R3 sets the neg-
ative output voltage; the resistor-divider formed by R1
and R2 sets the positive output voltage. Let R4 be a
value near 100kΩ to set a resistor-divider current of
approximately 10µA. Determine the value of R3 by the
following:

Let R2 be a value near 100kΩ to set a resistor-divider
current of approximately 10µA. Determine the value of

R1 = R2 x (V
