APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
A SEPIC (Single-Ended Primary Inductance Converter)
schematic is shown in Figure 4. This converter topology
produces a regulated output over an input voltage range
that spans (i.e., can be higher or lower than) the output.
Recommended component placement for a SEPIC is
shown in Figure 5.
