DESCRIPTION
The
SP6660
is a CMOS DC-DC Monolithic Voltage Converter that can be implemented as a
Voltage Inverter or a Positive Voltage Doubler. As a Voltage Inverter, a -1.5V to -4.25V output
can be converted from a +1.5V to +4.25V input. As a Voltage Doubler, the
SP6660
can provide
a +8.0V output at 100mA from a +4.25V input. The
SP6660
is ideal for both battery-powered
and board level voltage conversion applications with a typical operating current of 400µA and
a high efficiency (>90%) over most of its load-current range. Typical end products for this
device are operational amplifier and interface power supplies, medical instruments, and hand-
held and laptop computers. The
SP6660
is available in 8-pin DIP, SOIC, and
µSOIC
packages.

DESCRIPTION
The
SP6660
Charge Pump DC-DC Voltage
Converter either inverts or doubles the input
voltage. As a negative voltage inverter, as shown
in
Figure 1,
a +1.5V to +4.25V input can be
converted to a -1.5V to -4.25V output.
Figure 2,
as a positive voltage doubler, a +2.5V to +4.25V
input can be converted to a +5.0V to +8.5V output.
Typical performance curves in
Figures 3
to
20
are generated using the test circuits found in
Figure 1
and
Figure 2.
Four operating modes
are shown in the curves: Voltage inverter in low
and high frequency modes and voltage doubler
in low and high frequency modes.
