Figure 2: Example Circuit with Enable Control
Figure 2 is an example circuit using the SR036 or SR037 along
with a Supertex VN2460N8 MOSFET to generate an unregu-
lated voltage of approximately 18V and a regulated voltage of
3.3V for the SR036 or 5.0V for the SR037. The combined total
output current is typically 40mA. The TN2106K1 in series with a
1KΩ resistor can be added for applications requiring an enable
control.

Figure 3: Generating Two Regulated Voltages
For applications requiring two regulated voltages, an inexpen-
sive discrete linear regulator can be added to regulate the
unregulated output as show in Figure 3. The discrete linear
regulator consists of a Zener diode, a resistor and a bipolar
transistor. The regulated voltage, Vout1, is determined by the
Zener diode voltage minus the base-to-emitter voltage drop of
0.6V. Figure 3 uses a 5.6V Zener diode to obtain a 5.0V output.
Different Zener diode voltages can be used to obtain different
regulated output voltages.
