LTC3261
Pin Functions
NC (Pins 1, 3, 6, 7,12): No Connect Pins. These pins are
not connected to the LTC3261 die. These pins should be
left floating or connected to ground. Pins 6 and 7 can also
be shorted to adjacent pins.
RT (Pin 2): Input Connection for Programming the Switch-
ing Frequency. The RT pin servos to a fixed 1.2V when
the EN pin is driven to a logic “high”. A resistor from RT
to GND sets the charge pump switching frequency. If the
RT pin is tied to GND, the switching frequency defaults
to a fixed 500kHz.
V_OUT (Pin 4): Charge Pump Output Voltage. In constant
frequency mode (MODE = low) this pin is driven to –V_IN.
In Burst Mode operation, (MODE = high) this pin voltage is
regulated to –0.94 • V_IN using an internal burst comparator
with hysteretic control.
C^– (Pin 5): Flying Capacitor Negative Connection.
C⁺ (Pin 8): Flying Capacitor Positive Connection.
V_IN (Pin 9): Input Voltage for the Charge Pump. V_IN should
be bypassed with a low impedance ceramic capacitor.
EN (Pin 10): Logic Input. A logic “high” on the EN pin
enables the inverting charge pump.
MODE (Pin 11): Logic Input. The MODE pin deter-
mines the charge pump operating mode. A logic “high”
on the MODE pin forces the charge pump into Burst
Mode operation regulating V_OUT to approximately
–0.94 • V_IN with hysteretic control. A logic “low” on the
MODE pin forces the charge pump to operate as an open-
loop inverter with a constant switching frequency. The
switching frequency in both modes is determined by an
external resistor from the RT pin to GND. In Burst Mode,
this represents the frequency of the burst cycles before
the part enters the low quiescent current sleep state.
GND (Exposed Pad Pin 13): Ground. The exposed pack-
age pad is ground and must be soldered to the PC board
ground plane for proper functionality and for rated thermal
performance.
