APPLICATIONS

The SP682 is a monolithic charge pump voltage converter that produces a doubled, negative

voltage from a single positive supply. The SP682 charge pump outputs a –10V voltage from

a +5V input. Three external charge pump capacitors are required to support the voltage

conversion and voltage doubling process. An internal oscillator generates a 12kHz clock

which cycles the internal switching that charges the storage and transfer capacitors. The

charge pump architecture is fabricated using a low power BiCMOS process technology.

The SP682 charge pump is ideal for low power applications requiring a typical +3V battery

source such as a lithium cell. Typical applications are handheld instruments, notebook and

laptop computers, cellular phones, and data acquisition or GP systems. The SP682 is

packaged in either 8-pin NSOIC, 8-pin MSOP for surface mount applications, and 8 Pin PDIP.
