Switched-Capacitor Voltage Converter
Description
The GS7660 is a monolithic CMOS switched capacitor
voltage converter, designed to be an improved direct
replacement of the popular ICL7660, MAX1044 and
LTC1044. They perform supply voltage conversions from
positive to negative for an input voltage range of +1.5V to
+6.0V to their negative complements of –1.5V to –6.0V.
The input voltage can also be doubled (VOUT = 2VIN),
halved (VOUT = VIN/2), or multiplied (VOUT = ± n.VIN).

Features
• Low output impedance ( typical 35Ω at VIN = 5V )
• Low quiescent current ( typical 36µA at VIN = 5V)
• High power conversion efficiency ( typical 98% )
• Simple and accurate voltage conversion from
positive to negative polarities
• Improved latch-up protection
Contained on the chip are a series Power Supply regulator, Oscillator, control Circuitry and four Power MOS
Switches. The oscillator, when unloaded, oscillates at a
nominal frequency of 10 kHz, with an Input voltage of 5.0V.
This frequency can be lowered by the addition of an external
capacitor to the “Osc” terminal or overdriven by an external
frequency source.
An Oscillator “boost” function is available to increase the
oscillator frequency which will optimize performance of
certain parameters. The Lv input can be connected to
ground to improve low voltage operation (VIN ≤ 3V), or left
open for input voltages greater than 3V to reduce power
dissipation.
• No external diodes required
Applications
• – 5V supply from + 5V logic supply
• EIA/TIA – 232E and EIA/TIA – 562 power supplies
• Portable telephones
• Data acquisition systems
• Personal communications equipment
The GS7660 provides superior performance over earlier
designs by combining low output impedance and low quiescent current with high efficiency and by eliminating diode
voltage drop losses. The only external components
required are two low cost electrolytic capacitors.
• Panel meters
• Handheld instruments

Detailed Description
The GS7660 is a charge-pump voltage converter. The
basic operations is as follows: Switch pairs S1, S2 and S3,
S4 (Fig.7) are alternately closed and opened at the rate of
the oscillator frequency divided by two.
S1
S2
VIN
C1
During the first half of the cycle, when S1 and S2 are
closed and S3 and S4 are open, bucket capacitor C1 is
charged by input voltage. During the second half of the
cycle, when the switches assume the opposite state,
capacitor C1 is connected in parallel with output capacitor
C2 and any voltage differential causes a transfer of charge
from C1 to C2. This process will continue until the voltage
across C2 equals the –VIN voltage.
In normal operation, the output voltage will be less than
–VIN, since the switches have internal resistance and C2 is
being discharged by the load.

Fig. 8 – Switched Capacitor Model
To better understand the theory of operation, a review of
the basic switched capacitor building block is helpful (see
Fig. 8). Referring to Fig. 8 and looking at one full cycle of
operation, the charge being drained by the load is Qavg or
IL x T (T being the time period of one full cycle).
All the charge (∆q) flowing into the output is being delivered
by the input to C1 during only half the cycle. Under steadystate condition, C1 will charge to the level of the input voltage
(VIN) and discharge to the peak level of the output voltage
(VOUT). Therefor the voltage change on C1 is VIN – VOUT.
It shows a voltage regulator between the VIN and Gnd, in
series with the Oscillator.
Grounding the LV pin removes the regulator from this
series path and improves low voltage performance down to
1.5V. For supply voltages less than 3.0V, the LV pin should
be connected to ground and left open for voltages above
3.0V.
The LV pin can be left grounded over the total range of
Input Voltages. This will improve low voltage operation and
increase oscillator frequency. The disadvantage is
increased quiescent current and reduced efficiency at
higher voltages.

Oscillator Frequency Control
For normal operation, the Boost, and Oscillator Pins
should be left open. Connecting the Boost pin to the VIN
supply will increase oscillator frequency by a factor of 5,
resulting in lower Output Impedance, less ripple, smaller
required capacitor values and moves the switching noise
out of the audio band. Lower oscillator frequency reduces
quiescent current.

The oscillator frequency can be further controlled by driving

Figure 11 shows two methods of voltage doubling. In Fig.
11a , R1 is added to ensure that doubling is not inhibited
by a non-destructive latch-up at start-up. This condition can
occur, since the ground pin (pin 3) is raised above the VIN
pin ( pin 8) during start-up.

R1 increases output impedance and in higher current
applications where the voltage drop across R1 exceeds a two
diode drop, the doubling circuit of Fig 11b is recommended.
The voltage doubler of Fig. 11a is more accurate at low
load currents since the voltage drop across the diode is not
reflected at the output.

Ultra Precision Voltage Divider

An ultra precision voltage divider is shown below in Fig. 12.
To achieve the 0.002% accuracy, the load current has to be
kept below 100nA. However with a slight loss in accuracy,
the load current can be increased.

Fig. 14 above shows two GS7660s connected in parallel to
achieve a lower output resistance. If the output resistance
is dominated by 1/ f C1, which is normally the case with the
GS7660, increasing C1 offers a greater advantage than
the paralleling of circuits.
Battery Splitter
Fig. 13 shows a simple solution to obtain complementary +
and – supplies from a single power supply. The output voltages are + and – half the supply voltage. Good accuracy
requires low load currents.
A disadvantage is the requirement of a floating input supply,
which in the case of a battery is not an issue.
