Hi everyone! I need a boost regulator for a DIY of mine that takes an input of about 10Volts and gives a fixed output of 12Volts. In addition, this boost regulator's output current has to be internally limited below 1A. I stumbled across the LM2577-12 and I think that it meets exactly my needs, but I have to get sure. The electrical characteristics of LM2577-12, as well as the circuit are being attached below. One thing I dont get is why should I use only the recommended types of electrolytic capacitors (being attached below as well) and just dont pick my own ones with the exact capacitance as shown at the circuit figure? Finally, it is mentioned that the output current of the LM2577-12 is internally limited down to 800mA when it is used as a flyback or forward converter regulator in accordance to the Application Hints and that is exactly the output current I need. May anyone help me whether should I give it a try or not and what capacitors should I use?
Thank you!!
Thank you!!
