input is 24v DC. I'm using LM7812 to get the +12v and
Figure 13 for softer start)
I have implemented is
get nice stable -12v in output. However, when putting 2k ohm
output and GND the LM2576 gets really hot and
also noticed that the -12v draws about 70mA from power supply when
load is 6mA (12v / 2kohm = 6mA).
You have 36V across the IC that way, use the conventional bipolar switcher: View in a fixed-width font such as Courier.
