REGULATING V
OUT
It is possible to regulate the negative output of the LM828 by use of a low dropout regulator (such as the
LP2980). The whole converter is depicted in Figure 16. This converter can give a regulated output from −1.8V to
−5.5V by choosing the proper resistor ratio:
V
out
= V
ref
(1 + R

/R

) (6)
where, V
ref
= 1.23V (7)
Note that the following conditions must be satisfied simultaneously for worst case design:
