The feedback pin is the inverting input of an error amplifier “Spike” height (dI/dt • L which controls the regulator output by adjusting duty P) is approximately 2V per inch of lead length for LT1074 and 0.8V per inch for cycle. The noninverting input is internally connected to a LT1076. trimmed 2.21V reference. Input bias current is typically 0.5µA when the error amplifier is balanced (IOUT = 0).
