DESCRIPTION
The LTC
廬
660 is a monolithic CMOS switched-capacitor
voltage converter. It performs supply voltage conversion
from positive to negative from an input range of 1.5V to
5.5V, resulting in complementary output voltages of
鈥?1.5V to 鈥?5.5V. It also performs a doubling at an input
voltage range of 2.5V to 5.5V, resulting in a doubled
output voltage of 5V to 11V. Only two external capacitors
are needed for the charge pump and charge reservoir
functions.
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 LTC660 contains an internal oscillator, divide-by-two,
voltage level shifter and four power MOSFETs.
