The converter has an internal oscillator that can be
overdriven by an external clock or slowed down when
connected to a capacitor. The oscillator runs at a 10kHz
frequency when unloaded. A higher frequency outside the
audio band can also be obtained if the Boost Pin is tied to
V +. The SHDN pin reduces supply current to 8µA and can
be used to save power when the converter is not in use.
The LTC1144 contains an internal oscillator, divide-bytwo, voltage level shifter, and four power MOSFETs. A
special logic circuit will prevent the power N-channel
switch substrate from turning on.

The LTC1144 is a monolithic CMOS switched-capacitor
voltage converter. It performs supply voltage conversion
from positive to negative from an input range of 2V to 18V,
resulting in complementary output voltages of –2V to
–18V. Only two noncritical external capacitors are needed
for the charge pump and charge reservoir functions.

Theory of Operation
To understand the theory of operation of the LTC1144, a
review of a basic switched-capacitor building block is
helpful.
In Figure 2, when the switch is in the left position, capacitor
C1 will charge to voltage V1. The total charge on C1 will be
q1 = C1V1. The switch then moves to the right, discharging C1 to voltage V2. After this discharge time, the charge
on C1 is q2 = C1V2. Note that charge has been transferred
from the source V1 to the output V2. The amount of charge
transferred is:
∆q = q1 – q2 = C1(V1 – V2)

A new variable REQUIV has been defined such that REQUIV
= 1/(f × C1). Thus, the equivalent circuit for the switchedcapacitor network is as shown in Figure 3.

For example, if you examine power conversion efficiency
as a function of frequency (see Figure 5), this simple
theory will explain how the LTC1144 behaves. The loss,

Examination of Figure 4 shows that the LTC1144 has the
same switching action as the basic switched-capacitor
building block. With the addition of finite switch onresistance and output voltage ripple, the simple theory,
although not exact, provides an intuitive feel for how the
device works.
If the switch is cycled f times per second, the charge
transfer per unit time (i.e., current) is:

and hence the efficiency, is set by the output impedance.
As frequency is decreased, the output impedance will
eventually be dominated by the 1/(f × C1) term and power
efficiency will drop.

(1)
Note also that power efficiency decreases as frequency
goes up. This is caused by internal switching losses which
occur due to some finite charge being lost on each
switching cycle. This charge loss per unit cycle, when
multiplied by the switching frequency, becomes a current
loss. At high frequency this loss becomes significant and
the power efficiency starts to decrease.

SHDN (Pin 6)
The LTC1144 has a SHDN pin that will disable the internal
oscillator when it is pulled low. The supply current will also
drop to 8µA.
OSC (Pin 7) and Boost (Pin 1)
The switching frequency can be raised, lowered or driven
from an external source. Figure 6 shows a functional
diagram of the oscillator circuit.
By connecting the boost pin (pin 1) to V +, the charge and
discharge current is increased, and hence the frequency is
increased by approximately 10 times. Increasing the frequency will decrease output impedance and ripple for
higher load currents.
Loading pin 7 with more capacitance will lower the frequency. Using the boost (pin 1) in conjunction with exter-
6
nal capacitance on pin 7 allows user selection of the
frequency over a wide range.
Driving the LTC1144 from an external frequency source
can be easily achieved by driving pin 7 and leaving the
boost pin open as shown in Figure 7. The output current
from pin 7 is small, typically 4µA, so a logic gate is capable
of driving this current. The choice of using a CMOS logic
gate is best because it can operate over a wide supply
voltage range (3V to 15V) and has enough voltage swing
to drive the internal Schmitt trigger shown in Figure 6. For
5V applications, a TTL logic gate can be used by simply
adding an external pull-up resistor (see Figure 7).
Capacitor Selection
External capacitors C1 and C2 are not critical. Matching is
not required, nor do they have to be high quality or tight
tolerance. Aluminum or tantalum electrolytics are excellent
choices, with cost and size being the only consideration.

Figure 8 shows a typical connection which will provide a
negative supply from an available positive supply. This
circuit operates over full temperature and power supply
ranges without the need of any external diodes.
The output voltage (pin 5) characteristics of the circuit are
those of a nearly ideal voltage source in series with a 56Ω
resistor. The 56Ω output impedance is composed of two
terms: 1) the equivalent switched capacitor resistance
(see Theory of Operation), and 2) a term related to the onresistance of the MOS switches.

Notice that the above equation for REQUIV is not a capacitive reactance equation (X C = 1/ωC) and does not contain
a 2π term.
The exact expression for output impedance is extremely
complex, but the dominant effect of the capacitor is clearly
shown in Figure 5. For C1 = C2 = 10µF, the output
impedance goes from 56Ω at fOSC = 10kHz to 250Ω at
fOSC = 1kHz. As the 1/(f × C) term becomes large compared
to the switch on-resistance term, the output resistance is
determined by 1/(f × C) only.

Two LTC1144s are connected in parallel to provide a lower
effective output resistance. However, if the output resistance is dominated by 1/(f × C1), increasing the capacitor
size (C1) or increasing the frequency will be of more
benefit than the paralleling circuit shown.
