Many applications require circuit performance that is unachievable with conventional regulator design. This results in added complexity to the circuit. However, some problems can easily be solved by floating the input to the regulator. A floating input can either be a battery, or a secondary winding that is galvanically isolated from all other windings. With this method high efficiency negative voltage regulation, ...
