--- Quote from: spec on November 28, 2018, 11:47:40 pm ---The AP3012 has only got a current sink output so it can't be used easily with a choke to generate a negative supply rail. A 1:1 choke would be required and a bit of jiggery pokey with the feedback, but it still looks doable. Another approach maybe be to use an external PMOSFET. --- End quote --- The schematic goes like this, only 2 more diodes and 2 caps are needed, http://www.seekic.com/circuit_diagram/Power_Supply_Circuit/POSITIVE_AND_NEGATIVE_VOLTAGE_SWITCHING_SUPPLY.html |

It would make sense because the seller implies that the magnitude of the negative supply rail is one diode drop less than the magnitude of the positive supply rail, which I think is the same for the LT1172 circuit? I would guess that D1 (1N4148) is used instead of a 1N5819 Schottky diode, as used elsewhere, to try to make the magnitude of the +- supply rails closer. If that is the case, it makes the ebay module more attractive than if it used a charge pump for the negative supply rail. |

Just been looking at another of SiliconWizard's chips. The swinging capacitor LTC3260 looks useful, with built-in +&- LDO regulators giving 50mA. It is low-noise too. https://www.analog.com/media/en/technical-documentation/data-sheets/3260fa.pdf |
