APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
is close to its regulation voltage. This method allows the
PG pin to disable multiple ICs. Refer to Figure 10 for the
necessary connections. Alternatively, the PG pin may be
used to pull the SS pin of another switching regulator low,
preventing the other regulator from switching.
The master switch, immune from the flying capaci-
tor current spike (seen only by the slave switch), can
therefore sense the inductor current more accurately.
Since the slave switch can sustain large current spikes,
the diodes that feed current into the flying capacitors do
not need current limiting resistors, leading to efficiency
and thermal improvements, as well as a smaller solution
size.

Charge Pump Topology
The LT8582 can be used in a charge pump topology as
shown in Figure 11, multiplying the output of a boost
converter. The master switch (SWA) can be used to drive
the boost converter, while the slave switch (SWB) can
be used to drive one or more charge pump stages. This
topology is useful for high voltage applications including
VFD bias supplies.

CHARGE PUMP AIDED REGULATORS
Designing charge pumps with the LT8582 can offer efficient
solutions with fewer components than traditional circuits
because of the master/slave switch configuration on the
IC. Although the slave switch, SWB, operates in phase
with the master switch, SWA, only the current through the
master switch (SWA) is sensed by the current comparator
(A4 in the Block Diagram). This method of operation by
the master/slave switches can offer the following benefits
to charge pump designs:
The slave switch, by not performing a current sense
operation like the master switch, can sustain fairly
large current spikes without falsely tripping the current
comparator. In a charge pump, these spikes occur when
the flying capacitors charge up. Since this current spike
flows through SWB, it does not affect the operation of
the current comparator (A4 in the Block Diagram).
