LTC1429
Clock-Synchronized
Switched Capacitor
Regulated Voltage Inverter
DESCRIPTION
The LTC®1429 is a switched-capacitor voltage inverter de-
signed to provide a regulated negative voltage from a single
positive supply and permits clock synchronization in noise
sensitive systems. The LTC1429CS operates from a single 3V
to 8V supply and provides an adjustable output voltage from
– 1.25V to –8V. An on-chip resistor string allows the
LTC1429CS to be configured for output voltages of –3.5V,
–4V, –4.5V or –5V. The LTC1429CS8 is optimized for
applications which require a fixed –4V output from a 5V
supply and requires only a single external 0.1µF flying
capacitor. The LTC1429CS requires one or two external
0.1µF capacitors, depending on input voltage. Both versions
require additional external input and output bypass capaci-
tors. An optional compensation capacitor at ADJ/COMP can
be used to reduce the output voltage ripple.
Each version of the LTC1429 guarantees output regulation of
5%. The LTC1429 includes an open-drain REG output which
pulls low when the output is within 5% of the set value. Output
ripple is typically as low as 5mV. The LTC1429 requires an
external clock applied to the SYNC/SD for normal operation
and consumes a typical quiescent current of 600µA. Holding
the SYNC/SD either high or low brings the device into
shutdown and the supply current drops to 0.2µA. For appli-
cations which don’t have a clock signal available, the LTC1261
provides the same functionality with an internal oscillator. For
applications which require output ripple below 1mV, see the
LTC1550/LTC1551. The LTC1429CS is available in a 14-pin
SO package and the LTC1429CS8 is available in an 8-pin SO
package.
