L1 = COILTRONICS-CTX25-5-52 ** R1, R2, AND C4 ARE USED FOR LOOP FREQUENCY COMPENSATION WITH LOW INPUT VOLTAGE,
BUT R1 AND R2 MUST BE INCLUDED IN THE CALCULATION FOR OUTPUT VOLTAGE DIVIDER VALUES.
FOR HIGHER OUTPUT VOLTAGES, INCREASE R1, R2, AND R3 PROPORTIONATELY.
FOR INPUT VOLTAGE > 10V, R1, R2, AND C4 CAN BE ELIMINATED, AND COMPENSATION IS
DONE TOTALLY ON THE V C PIN.

** MAXIMUM OUTPUT CURRENT OF 1A IS DETERMINED BY MINIMUM INPUT
VOLTAGE OF 4.5V. HIGHER MINIMUM INPUT VOLTAGE WILL ALLOW MUCH HIGHER
OUTPUT CURRENTS. SEE AN44.
