i want to design dual power supply with high current rating ,i am not familiar with lm2576.
can anybody tell me how to use lm2576 negative (-5 volt) generation. please reply me i am waiting .
thanks

Please see the LM2576 data sheet; figure 24. I have also attached some app notes that may be helpful.
actually sir i want to design power supply which can give up to 5 amp of current. i want it for load cell (+/- 5 volt )
i design it , lm2576 for + 5 volt and lm7905 for -5volt. but the thing is that , when i connect load cell to power supply load cell gives output 80mv without any input
sir pleas tell me there any problem because of lm7905 otherwise tell me suggestion.
thanks sir

It would be helpful if you could draw a block diagram or schematic for what you need to do.
If you need -5V at 5A you will need a higher current device.
This schematic looks OK to me. I assume you have large Al. capacitors on the output of the bridge??
What is the issue you are seeing with this circuit??
I am not sure I can answer your question about your sensor. If it is a TI device you may try to find the correct forum.
If there is an offset, maybe you need +/- supplies that are tracking and balanced.
hi sir
if you have any idea to design +/- 5volt with high current rating up to 5amp , then suggest me .
thanks

Hi Yogesh,
You mean your load need +/-5V powersupply and the max load will be as large as 5A, right? If so, I'm afraid you need a 60V/5A device for the +5V output. TPS54560 may be more suitable. Or LMR14050 is also a recommendation if 40V voltage is enough for your system.
Hello Yogesh,
Perhaps I can provide some help here. First, if you are using a center-tapped transformer secondary then you need to tie the center tap of the transformer to the center of two output capacitors. This provides separate positive and negative dc sources for the two regulators in your application. Without this connection there isn't a midpoint ground reference for either regulator to act upon and it will not function predictably, if at all. Once that correction has been made there is a second issue that often causes issues with heavy loads connected across symmetrical supply regulators.; that of a startup issue where one or the other supply regulator fails to start up. This can be resolved by placing reverse biased Schottky diodes across each of the two supply outputs. I have illustrated both suggestions in the attached schematic. Thank you. Lets us know your progress. AlanYogesh.pdf
thanks for your response,
i will try this on my circuit and let you know the result.and i have one doubt , i used 1000uf cap as a filter capacitor is there any effect of this. should i switch to 2200uf .
thanks yogesh
The following schematic might not have attached to my earlier response. (Can't tell from my browser.)
This schematic using an AC input via a bridge rectifier will need a center tapped transformer to generate the independent raw +and - voltages into each rail regulator.
A better approach is to use two buck regulators, one in conventional buck configuration to create +5VDC. The second one in inverting buck-boost for the -5V rail as shown in Ap Note SNVA722B by Anston Lobo.
Each of these regulators will need a reverse biased Schottky diode placed across it's output to insure correct start-up since the end application can pull current from one rail to the opposite without conduction through the common ground.
