From Figure 5, the phase is 120° when the gain reaches
0dB giving a phase margin of 60°. This is more than
adequate. The crossover frequency is 50kHz, which is
about three times lower than the frequency of the right half
plane zero Z2. It is important that the crossover frequency
be at least three times lower than the frequency of the RHP
zero to achieve adequate phase margin.

Diode Selection
A Schottky diode is recommended for use with the LT1310.
The Microsemi UPS120 is a very good choice. Where the
input to output voltage differential exceeds 20V, use the
UPS140 (a 40V diode). These diodes are rated to handle an
average forward current of 1A. For applications where the
average forward current of the diode is less than 0.5A, an
ON Semiconductor MBR0520 diode can be used.
Setting Output Voltage
To set the output voltage, select the values of R1 and R2
(see Figure 1) according to the following equation:
