It is useful for a wide range of applications and its performances makes it ideal for flash memory programming supply. An evaluation kit is provided to facilitate the application. This include a single-side demo board designed for surface-mount components.The operating principle of ST662 (see fig. 1) is to charge C1 and C2 capacitor by closing the S1 switch (while S2 is opened) at the VCC voltage. After S1 will be opened and S2 closed so that C1 and C2 capacitors are placed in series one to each other, and both are in series with Vin.The sum of VC1 and VC2 and Vin is applied to the capacitor C4. This works as voltage tripler. An amplifier error checks the output voltage and blocks the oscillator if the output voltage is greater than 12V. The shutdown pin is internally pulled to VCC. When it is held low the output voltage rises to +12V. Fig.2 shows the transition time of the shut down pin when the VSHDN goes from 5V to 0V. Input logic levels of this input are CMOS compatible. Applying a logic high at this input, the VOUT oscillator will be blocked and the VOUT will reach theVIN value by D1. In this condition I CC will be Figure 1: Operating Principle Circuit Figure 2: Exiting Shutdown Figure 3: Entering Shutdown low as 1µA.

This implies a critical layout design due to the need to minimize inductive paths and place capacitors as close as possible to the device. A good layout design is strongly recommended for noise reason. For best performance, use very short connections to the capacitors and the values shown in table 1. C3 and C4 must have low ESR in order to minimize the output ripple. Their values can be reduced to 2µF and 1µF, respectively, when using ceramic capacitors, but must be of 10µF or larger if aluminium electrolytic are chosen. C5 must be placed as close to the device as possible and could be omitted if very low output noise performance are not required. Fig 4 and Fig 5 show, respectively, our EVALUATION kit layout and the relatively electrical shematic.

It is possible to increase it connecting in parallel two or more ST662A devices; each one of them can supply 30mA. The figure 6 shows the electric schematic. The capacitors C3, C4 and C5 must be placed very close to the ICs on the board. If this is not possible, you can place two different capacitors, each of them of half value, very close to the respective integrated circuit. Fig. 8 show the Output Current capability of the proposed circuit. If an output voltage greater than 12V is required, it’s possible to realize the circuit of the following diagram (figure 7). The relevant Output Current capability is shown in figure 9 in which is shown the output voltage vs load current.
