DATASHEET ICL7660S, ICL7660A FN3179 Rev 7.00 January 23, 2013 Super Voltage Converters The ICL7660S and ICL7660A Super Voltage Converters are monolithic CMOS voltage conversion ICs that guarantee significant performance advantages over other similar devices. They are direct replacements for the industry standard ICL7660 offering an extended operating supply voltage range up to 12V, with lower supply current. A Frequency Boost pin has been incorporated to enable the user to achieve lower output impedance despite using smaller capacitors. All improvements are highlighted in the “Electrical Specifications” section on page 3. Critical parameters are guaranteed over the entire commercial and industrial temperature ranges. The ICL7660S and ICL7660A perform supply voltage conversions from positive to negative for an input range of 1.5V to 12V, resulting in complementary output voltages of -1.5V to -12V. Only two non-critical external capacitors are needed, for the charge pump and charge reservoir functions. The ICL7660S and ICL7660A can be connected to function as a voltage doubler and will generate up to 22.8V with a 12V input. They can also be used as a voltage multipliers or voltage dividers. Each chip contains a series DC power supply regulator, RC oscillator, voltage level translator, and four output power MOS switches. The oscillator, when unloaded, oscillates at a nominal frequency of 10kHz for an input supply voltage of 5.0V. This frequency can be lowered by the addition of an external capacitor to the “OSC” terminal, or the oscillator may be over-driven by an external clock. The “LV” terminal may be tied to GND to bypass the internal series regulator and improve low voltage (LV) operation. At medium to high voltages (3.5V to 12V), the LV pin is left floating to prevent device latchup.

ICL7660A TEST CIRCUIT FN3179 Rev 7.00 January 23, 2013 Page 7 of 13 ICL7660S, ICL7660A Detailed Description The ICL7660S and ICL7660A contain all the necessary circuitry to complete a negative voltage converter, with the exception of two external capacitors, which may be inexpensive 10µF polarized electrolytic types. The mode of operation of the device may best be understood by considering Figure 14, which shows an idealized negative voltage converter. Capacitor C1 is charged to a voltage, V+, 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 S3 open, thereby shifting capacitor C1 to C2 such that the voltage on C2 is exactly V+, assuming ideal switches and no load on C2. The ICL7660S and ICL7660A approach this ideal situation more closely than existing non-mechanical circuits. 8 S1 S2 2 C1 3 C2 S4 S3 4 5 VOUT = -VIN 7 FIGURE 14. IDEALIZED NEGATIVE VOLTAGE CONVERTER In the ICL7660S and ICL7660A, the four switches of Figure 14 are MOS power switches; S1 is a P-Channel device; and S2, S3 and S4 are N-Channel devices. The main difficulty with this approach is that in integrating the switches, the substrates of S3 and S4 must always remain reverse biased with respect to their sources, but not so much as to degrade their “ON” resistances. In addition, at circuit startup, and under output short circuit conditions (VOUT = V+), the output voltage must be sensed and the substrate bias adjusted accordingly. Failure to accomplish this would result in high power losses and probable device latch-up. This problem is eliminated in the ICL7660S and ICL7660A by a logic network that senses the output voltage (VOUT) together with the level translators, and switches the substrates of S3 and S4 to the correct level to maintain necessary reverse bias. The voltage regulator portion of the ICL7660S and ICL7660A is an integral part of the anti-latchup circuitry; however, its inherent voltage drop can degrade operation at low voltages. Therefore, to improve low voltage operation, the “LV” pin should be connected to GND, thus disabling the regulator. For supply voltages greater than 3.5V, the LV terminal must be left open to ensure latchup-proof operation and to prevent device damage. FN3179 Rev 7.00 January 23, 2013 In theory, a voltage converter can approach 100% efficiency if certain conditions are met: 1. The drive circuitry consumes minimal power. 2. The output switches have extremely low ON resistance and virtually no offset. 3. The impedance of the pump and reservoir capacitors are negligible at the pump frequency. The ICL7660S and ICL7660A approach these conditions for negative voltage conversion if large values of C1 and C2 are used. ENERGY IS LOST ONLY IN THE TRANSFER OF CHARGE BETWEEN CAPACITORS IF A CHANGE IN VOLTAGE OCCURS. The energy lost is defined as shown in Equation 1: 1 E = --- C 1 V 1 2 – V 2 2 2 VIN 3 Theoretical Power Efficiency Considerations (EQ. 1) 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 (see Figure 14) 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. Do’s and Don’ts 1. Do not exceed maximum supply voltages. 2. Do not connect LV terminal to GND for supply voltage greater than 3.5V. 3. Do not short circuit the output to V+ supply for supply voltages above 5.5V for extended periods; however, transient conditions including start-up are okay. 4. When using polarized capacitors, the + terminal of C1 must be connected to pin 2 of the ICL7660S and ICL7660A, and the + terminal of C2 must be connected to GND. 5. If the voltage supply driving the ICL7660S and ICL7660A has a large source impedance (25 to 30), then a 2.2µF capacitor from pin 8 to ground may be required to limit the rate of rise of input voltage to less than 2V/µs. 6. If the input voltage is higher than 5V and it has a rise rate more than 2V/µs, an external Schottky diode from VOUT to CAP- is needed to prevent latchup (triggered by forward biasing Q4’s body diode) by keeping the output (pin 5) from going more positive than CAP- (pin 4). 7. User should ensure that the output (pin 5) does not go more positive than GND (pin 3). Device latch-up will occur under these conditions. To provide additional protection, a 1N914 or similar diode placed in parallel with C2 will prevent the device from latching up under these conditions, when the load on VOUT creates a path to pull up VOUT before the IC is active (anode pin 5, cathode pin 3). Page 8 of 13 ICL7660S, ICL7660A charge the capacitors every cycle. Equation 4 shows a typical application where fOSC = 10kHz and C = C1 = C2 = 10µF: Typical Applications Simple Negative Voltage Converter The majority of applications will undoubtedly utilize the ICL7660S and ICL7660A for generation of negative supply voltages. Figure 15 shows typical connections to provide a negative supply where a positive supply of +1.5V to +12V is available. Keep in mind that pin 6 (LV) is tied to the supply negative (GND) for supply voltage below 3.5V.

Typical electrolytic capacitors may have ESRs as high as 10. 7 Output Ripple 6 RO 5 10µF + VOUT = -V+ 15A. VOUT V+ + ESR also affects the ripple voltage seen at the output.

SIMPLE NEGATIVE CONVERTER AND ITS OUTPUT EQUIVALENT (EQ. 5) A low ESR capacitor will result in a higher performance output. Paralleling Devices The output characteristics of the circuit in Figure 15 can be approximated by an ideal voltage source in series with a resistance as shown in Figure 15B. The voltage source has a value of -(V+). The output impedance (RO) is a function of the ON resistance of the internal MOS switches (shown in Figure 14), 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 shown in Equation 2: Any number of ICL7660S and ICL7660A voltage converters may be paralleled to reduce output resistance. The reservoir capacitor, C2, serves all devices, while each device requires its own pump capacitor, C1. The resultant output resistance is approximated in Equation 6: R 0 2 R SW1 + R SW3 + ESR C1 + 2 R SW2 + R SW4 + ESR C1 The ICL7660S and ICL7660A may be cascaded as shown to produce larger negative multiplication of the initial supply voltage. However, due to the finite efficiency of each device, the practical limit is 10 devices for light loads. The output voltage is defined as shown in Equation 7: 1 -------------------------------- + ESR C2 f PUMP C 1 f OSC f PUMP = -------------2 (EQ. 2) R SWX = MOSFET Switch Resistance Combining the four RSWX terms as RSW, we see in Equation 3 that: 1 R 0 2xR SW + -------------------------------- + 4xESR C1 + ESR C2 f PUMP C 1 (EQ. 3) RSW, the total switch resistance, is a function of supply voltage and temperature (see the output source resistance graphs, Figures 2, 3, and 11), typically 23 at +25°C and 5V. Careful selection of C1 and C2 will reduce the remaining terms, minimizing the output impedance. High value capacitors will reduce the 1/(fPUMP x C1) component, and low ESR capacitors will lower the ESR term. Increasing the oscillator frequency will reduce the 1/(fPUMP x C1) term, but may have the side effect of a net increase in output impedance when C1 > 10µF and is not long enough to fully FN3179 Rev 7.00 January 23, 2013 R OUT of ICL7660S R OUT = --------------------------------------------------------n number of devices (EQ. 6) Cascading Devices V OUT = – n V IN (EQ. 7) where n is an integer representing the number of devices cascaded. The resulting output resistance would be approximately the weighted sum of the individual ICL7660S and ICL7660A ROUT values. Changing the ICL7660S and ICL7660A Oscillator Frequency It may be desirable in some applications, due to noise or other considerations, to alter the oscillator frequency. This can be achieved simply by one of several methods. By connecting the Boost Pin (Pin 1) to V+, the oscillator charge and discharge current is increased and, hence, the oscillator frequency is increased by approximately 3.5 times. The result is a decrease in the output impedance and ripple. Page 9 of 13 ICL7660S, ICL7660A This is of major importance for surface mount applications where capacitor size and cost are critical. Smaller capacitors, such as 0.1µF, can be used in conjunction with the Boost Pin to achieve similar output currents compared to the device free running with C1 = C2 = 10µF or 100µF. (see Figure 11). Increasing the oscillator frequency can also be achieved by overdriving the oscillator from an external clock, as shown in Figure 16. In order to prevent device latchup, a 1k resistor must be used in series with the clock output. In a situation where the designer has generated the external clock frequency using TTL logic, the addition of a 10k pull-up resistor to V+ supply is required. Note that the pump frequency with external clocking, as with internal clocking, will be one-half of the clock frequency. Output transitions occur on the positive going edge of the clock. V+ Positive Voltage Doubling The ICL7660S and ICL7660A may be employed to achieve positive voltage doubling using the circuit shown in Figure 18. In this application, the pump inverter switches of the ICL7660S and ICL7660A are used to charge C1 to a voltage level of V+ -VF, where V+ is the supply voltage and VF is the forward voltage on C1, plus the supply voltage (V+) is applied through diode D2 to capacitor C2. The voltage thus created on C2 becomes (2V+) - (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, but for V+ = 5V and an output current of 10mA, it will be approximately 60.

FIGURE 18. POSITIVE VOLTAGE DOUBLER FIGURE 16. EXTERNAL CLOCKING It is also possible to increase the conversion efficiency of the ICL7660S and ICL7660A at low load levels by lowering the oscillator frequency. This reduces the switching losses, and is shown in Figure 17. However, lowering the oscillator frequency will cause an undesirable increase in the impedance of the pump (C1) and reservoir (C2) capacitors; this is overcome by increasing the values of C1 and C2 by the same factor by which the frequency has been reduced. For example, the addition of a 100pF capacitor between pin 7 (OSC and V+) will lower the oscillator frequency to 1kHz from its nominal frequency of 10kHz (a multiple of 10), and thereby necessitate a corresponding increase in the value of C1 and C2 (from 10µF to 100µF). V+ 1 2 C1 + - 3 4 Combined Negative Voltage Conversion and Positive Supply Doubling Figure 19 combines the functions shown in Figure 15 and Figure 18 to provide negative voltage conversion and positive voltage doubling simultaneously. This approach would be suitable, for example, 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 negative voltage generation, 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. 8 ICL7660S ICL7660A COSC 7 6 5 + VOUT C2 FIGURE 17.

SPLITTING A SUPPLY IN HALF FIGURE 19. COMBINED NEGATIVE VOLTAGE CONVERTER AND POSITIVE DOUBLER Regulated Negative Voltage Supply In some cases, the output impedance of the ICL7660S and ICL7660A can be a problem, particularly if the load current varies substantially. The circuit of Figure 21 can be used to overcome this by controlling the input voltage, via an ICL7611 low-power CMOS op amp, in such a way as to maintain a nearly constant output voltage. Direct feedback is inadvisable, since the ICL7660S’s and ICL7660A’s output does not respond instantaneously to change in input, but only after the switching delay. The circuit shown supplies enough delay to accommodate the ICL7660S and ICL7660A, while maintaining adequate feedback. An increase in pump and storage capacitors is desirable, and the values shown provide an output impedance of less than 5 to a load of 10mA. Voltage Splitting The bidirectional characteristics can also be used to split a high supply in half, as shown in Figure 20. The combined load will be evenly shared between the two sides, and a high value resistor to the LV pin ensures start-up. Because the switches share the load in parallel, the output impedance is much lower than in the standard circuits, and higher currents can be drawn from the device. By using this circuit, and then the circuit of Figure 15, +15V can be converted, via +7.5 and -7.5, to a nominal -15V, although with rather high series output resistance (250).
