APPLICATION INFORMATION
power dissipation
The power dissipation of any LT1054 circuit must be limited so that the junction temperature of the device does
not exceed the maximum junction-temperature ratings. The total power dissipation is calculated from two
components–the power loss due to voltage drops in the switches, and the power loss due to drive-current
losses. The total power dissipated by the LT1054 is calculated as:

where both V

and V
OUT
are referenced to ground. The power dissipation is equivalent to that of a linear
regulator. Limited power-handling capability of the LT1054 packages causes limited output-current
requirements, or steps can be taken to dissipate power external to the LT1054 for large input or output
differentials. This is accomplished by placing a resistor in series with C
IN
as shown in Figure 17. A portion of
the input voltage is dropped across this resistor without affecting the output regulation. Since switch current is
approximately 2.2 times the output current and the resistor causes a voltage drop when C
IN
is both charging
and discharging, the resistor chosen is as shown:

Where:

and

The factor of 1.3 allows some operating margin for the LT1054.
When using a 12-V to −5-V converter at 100-mA output current, calculate the power dissipation without an
external resistor.
