ICL828 TM Data Sheet June 2000 Switched-Capacitor Voltage Inverter Features The ICL828 IC performs supply voltage conversions from positive to negative for an input range of +1.5V to +5.5V resulting in complementary output voltages of -1.5V to -5.5V. The ICL828 has a 12kHz internal oscillator and requires two capacitors to invert the supply voltage. Cascading may be made to increase the output voltage. The high efficiency (greater than 90% over most of the load-current range) and low operating current (60µA typical) make these devices ideal for both battery-powered and board-level voltage conversion applications. • 5-Lead SOT23-5 Package File Number 4835.1 • 99% Open Circuit Voltage Conversion Efficiency • Inverts Input Supply Voltage • High Power Supply Efficiency • Input Voltage Range . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . +1.5V to +5.5V • May be Cascaded to Increase Output Voltage • Output Current . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 25mA • Quiescent Current . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 60µA Ordering Information PART NUMBER ICL828IH-T TEMP.

TEST CIRCUIT S1 5 Energy is lost only in the transfer of charge between capacitors if a change in voltage occurs. 2 2 1 E = --- C 1 ( V 1 – V 2 ) 2 10µF 10µF 2 4. The losses due to the 1/fC terms is small. The energy lost is defined by: C2 IN 3. The impedances of the pump and reservoir capacitors are negligible at the pump frequency. S2 IN Where V1 and V2 are the voltages on C1 during the pump and transfer cycles. If the impedances of C1 and C2 are relatively high at the pump frequency (refer to Figure 10) compared to the value of RL , there will be a substantial difference in the voltages V1 and V2 . Therefore it is not only desirable to make C2 as large as possible to eliminate output voltage ripple, but also to employ a correspondingly large value for C1 in order to achieve maximum efficiency of operation. Negative Voltage Converter C1 4 C2 S4 S3 3 1 OUT V OUT = -V IN FIGURE 10. IDEALIZED NEGATIVE VOLTAGE CONVERTER Description The ICL828 contains all the necessary circuitry to complete a negative converter, utilizing two external inexpensive 10µF polarized electrolytic capacitor. The mode of operation of the device may be understood by considering Figure 10 which shows an idealized negative voltage converter. Capacitor C1 is charged to a voltage, VIN , for the half cycle when switches S1 and S3 are closed (Note: switches S2 and S4 are open during this half cycle). During the second half cycle of operation, switches S2 and S4 are closed, with S1 and S2 open, thereby shifting capacitor C1 negatively by VIN Volts. Charge is then transferred from C1 to C2 such that the voltage on C2 is exactly VIN , assuming ideal switches and no load on C2 . Theoretical Power Efficiency Considerations In theory a voltage converter can approach 100% efficiency if certain conditions are met: 1. The driver circuitry consumes minimal power. 2. The output switches have extremely low ON resistance and virtually no offset. 4 The output characteristics of the circuit on the first page can be approximated by an ideal voltage source in series with a resistance (Figure 11). The voltage source has a value of -(VIN). The output impedance (RO) is a function of the ON resistance of the internal MOS switches (shown in Figure 10), the switching frequency, the value of C1 and C2 , and the ESR (equivalent series resistance) of C1 and C2 . A good first order approximation for RO is: R O = 2 ( R sw1 + R sw3 + ESRC 1 ) + 2 ( R sw2 + R sw4 + ESRC 1 ) + 1 ⁄ ( fpump ) ( C1 ) + ESRC 2 Rsw, the switch resistance, is a function of supply voltage and temperature (see Figure 3). Careful selection of capacitors will minimize the output resistance, and low capacitor ESR will lower the ESR term. VOUT - RO V IN + FIGURE 11. EQUIVALENT CIRCUIT Output Ripple ESR also affects the ripple voltage seen at the output. The total ripple is determined by 2 voltages, A and B, as shown in Figure 12. Segment A is the voltage drop across the ESR of C2 at the instant it goes from being charged by C1 (current flowing into C2) to being discharged through the load (current flowing out of C2). The magnitude of this current change is 2 x I OUT, hence the total drop is 2 x IOUT x ESRC2V. Segment B is the voltage change across C2 during time t1, the half of the cycle when C2 supplies current the ICL828 load. The drop at B is IOUT x t1 /C 2V. The peak-to-peak ripple voltage is the sum of these voltage drops: V t1 1 RIPPLE ≅ ------------------------------------------- + 2 ESRC 2 × I OUT 2 × C Xf 2 PUMP B 0 Again, a low ESR capacitor will result in a higher performance output. Positive Voltage Doubling The ICL828 may be employed to achieve positive voltage doubling using the circuit shown in Figure 13. In this application, the pump inverter switches of the ICL828 are used to charge C1 to a voltage level of VIN -VF where VIN is the supply voltage and VF is the forward voltage on C1 plus the supply voltage (VIN) is applied through diode D2 to capacitor C2 . The voltage thus created on C2 becomes (2VIN) - (2VF) or twice the supply voltage minus the combined forward voltage drops of diodes D1 and D2 . The source impedance of the output (VOUT) will depend on the output current. V A -(VIN) FIGURE 12. OUTPUT RIPPLE V+ D1 5 1 - C1 2 D2 + VOUT = (2V IN) - (2VF) 4 3 + C2 NOTE: D1 and D2 can be any suitable diode. FIGURE 13. POSITIVE VOLTAGE DOUBLER Combined Negative Conversion and Positive Supply Doubling Figure 14 combines the functions shown on front page and Figure 13 to provide negative voltage conversion and positive voltage doubling simultaneously. This approach would be, for example, suitable for generating +9V and -5V from an existing +5V supply. In this instance capacitors C1 and C3 perform the pump and reservoir functions respectively for the generation of the negative voltage, while capacitors C2 and C4 are pump and reservoir respectively for the doubled positive voltage. There is a penalty in this configuration which combines both functions, however, in that the source impedances of the generated supplies will be somewhat higher due to the finite impedance of the common charge pump driver at pin 2 of the device.

COMBINED NEGATIVE VOLTAGE AND POSITIVE DOUBLER Cascading Devices The ICL828 may be cascaded to produce a larger multiplication supply voltage (see Figure 15). The output voltage is: + 1 OUT C1+ C2 5 1 VOUT = -n(VIN), where n is an integer representing the number of devices cascaded. The resulting output resistance would be approximately the sum of the individual ICL828 ROUT values. +V IN 2 2 IN C1- 5 IN 1 3 C1+ OUT n GND 4 3 C1 - GND 4 + C3 C1 + VOUT C4 + VOUT = - nVIN FIGURE 15.

Typical value for ROUT in the above equivalent circuit would be 6Ω to 7Ω for an input voltage of 5V. The power efficiency for the circuit would be: PEFF = (IOUT*VOUT)/(1/2(VIN*IOUT))+(VIN*IQ) Typical values for ICL828 in this application, IQ = 22µA, ROUT = 6Ω to 7Ω and VOUT = 1/2VIN*RLOAD/(ROUT + RLOAD). The ICL828 used as a voltage splitting circuit is an efficient means to providing a split supply application as shown in Figures 16 through 19. 6 FIGURE 19.
