D. Calculate the maximum ESR of the +VOUT and −VOUT output capacitors in parallel.
This formula can also be used to calculate the maximum ESR of a single output regulator.

3. Output Voltage Selection
This section is for applications using the LM1577-ADJ/LM2577-ADJ. Skip this section if the LM1577-12/LM2577-
12 or LM1577-15/LM2577-15 is being used.
With the LM1577-ADJ/LM2577-ADJ, the output voltage is given by
VOUT = 1.23V (1 + R1/R2)
(26)
Resistors R1 and R2 divide the output voltage down so it can be compared with the LM1577-ADJ/LM2577-ADJ
internal 1.23V reference. For a desired output voltage VOUT, select R1 and R2 so that

4. Diode Selection
The switching diode in a flyback converter must withstand the reverse voltage specified by the following
equation.
(28)
A suitable diode must have a reverse voltage rating greater than this. In addition it must be rated for more than
the average and peak diode currents listed in Table 5.
