MAX850–MAX853
_______________General Description
The MAX850–MAX853 low-noise, inverting, chargepump power supplies are ideal for biasing GaAsFETs in
cellular telephone transmitter amplifiers.
The MAX850–MAX852 offer both preset (-4.1V) and
adjustable (-0.5V to -9.0V) output voltages. The
MAX853 uses an external positive control voltage to set
the negative output voltage. Input voltage range for all
four devices is 4.5V to 10V. Output current is 5mA.
An internal linear regulator reduces the output voltage
ripple to 2mVp-p. With a well-filtered control voltage
(VCTRL), the MAX853 achieves typical output ripple of
less than 1mVp-p. Supply current is 3mA max, and
shutdown current is less than 1µA max over temperature
(5µA max for MAX851).

_______________Detailed Description
The MAX850–MAX853 are low-noise, inverting, regulated charge-pump power supplies designed for biasing
GaAsFET devices, such as power-amplifier modules in
cellular handsets.
The applied input voltage (VIN) is first inverted to a
negative voltage at NEGOUT by a capacitive charge
pump. This voltage is then regulated by an internal lin-
C1+
C1-
ear regulator, and appears at OUT (Figure 1). The minimum (most negative) output voltage (VOUT) achievable
is the inverted positive voltage, plus the 1.0V required
by the post-regulator. The ripple noise induced by the
charge-pump inverter is reduced by the linear regulator
to 2mVp-p at VOUT for the MAX850–MAX852. In addition, the excellent AC rejection of the linear regulator
attenuates noise on the incoming supply. Up to 5mA is
available at OUT.

Setting the Output Voltage
For the MAX850–MAX852, select either a fixed or an
adjustable output voltage. Connect FB directly to GND to
select the fixed -4.1V output (Figure 2a). To select an alternate output voltage, connect FB to the midpoint of a resistor voltage divider from OUT to GND (Figure 2b). VIN must
be 1.0V above the absolute value of VOUT to allow proper
regulation. The output voltage is calculated from the formula below. Choose R2 to be between 100kΩ to 400kΩ.

Shutdown
The MAX850–MAX853 feature a shutdown mode that
reduces the supply current to 1µA max over temperature
(5µA max for the MAX851). The MAX850 and MAX853 have
an active-low TTL logic level SHDN input, whereas the
MAX851 has an active-high SHDN input. To shut down the
MAX852, set the OCSC input to a logic-low level. The device
is powered up by the resumption of the clock signal.
R1
100k
)
Capacitors
Use capacitors with low effective series resistance (ESR) to
maintain a low dropout voltage (VIN - |VOUT|). The overall
dropout voltage is a function of the charge pump’s output
resistance and the voltage drop across the linear regulator
(N-channel pass transistor). At the 100kHz switching frequency, the charge-pump output resistance is a function of
C1 and C2’s ESR. Therefore, minimizing the ESR of the
charge-pump capacitors minimizes the dropout voltage.
1µF, 0.8Ω ESR capacitors are recommended for C1, C2,
and C3. C4 should be 10µF, 0.2Ω ESR. All capacitors
should be either surface-mount chip tantalum or chip
ceramic types. External capacitor values may be adjusted to
optimize size and cost.

Layout and Grounding
Good layout is important, primarily for good noise performance.
1) Mount all components as close together as possible.
2) Keep traces short to minimize parasitic inductance
and capacitance. This includes connections to FB.

GND
0.127"
(3.226mm)

3) Use a ground plane.
Noise and Ripple Measurement
Accurately measuring the output noise and ripple is a challenge. Brief differences in ground potential between the
MAX850–MAX853 circuit and the oscilloscope (which result
from the charge pump’s switching action) cause ground
currents in the probe’s wires, inducing sharp voltage spikes.
For best results, measure directly across the output capacitor (C4). Do not use the ground lead of the oscilloscope
probe; instead, remove the probe’s tip cover and touch the
ground ring on the probe directly to C4’s ground terminal.
You can also use a Tektronix chassis mount test jack (part
no. 131-0258) to connect your scope probe directly. This
direct connection gives the most accurate noise and ripple measurement.
