The LV terminal may be tied to VSS to disable the voltage regulator. By doing this, low voltage operation can be improved. HT7660 is a monolithic CMOS switched-capacitor voltage converter. HT7660 is designed to complete a voltage conversion from positive to negative. The only required external components are two low cost electrolytic capacitors. HT7660 includes a voltage regulator, an RC oscillator and four output power MOS switches.

This can reduce the current consumption of the RC oscillator, and thus get a fixed switching frequency Fosc with high voltage range. For low voltage operation, the LV pin is connected to VSS to bypass the voltage regulator of which inherent voltage drop can degrade the operation at low voltages. HT7660 needs only two external polarized electrolytic capacitors to complete a negative voltage converter. HT7660 has four MOS power switches: S1, S2, S3 and S4. For the first half cycle, when S2 and S4 are open, Capacitor C1 is charged to a voltage VDD through S1 and S3. During the second half cycle, when S1 and S3 are open, the charge on Capacitor C1 is shifted to Capacitor C2 through S2 and S4. Thereby, the voltage across Capacitor C2 is VDD. Because the positive terminal of C2 is connected to VSS, we get a -VDD voltage at VOUT pin. V D D S 1 A capacitor may be connected between VDD and pin OSC to lower the switching Fosc, and an external clock may be added to replace the built-in RC oscillator.
