Negative Voltage Converter
Figure 8 shows a typical connection which will provide a
negative supply from an available positive supply. This
circuit operates over full temperature and power supply
ranges without the need of any external diodes.
The output voltage (pin 5) characteristics of the circuit are
those of a nearly ideal voltage source in series with a 56
resistor. The 56
output impedance is composed of two
terms: 1) the equivalent switched capacitor resistance
(see Theory of Operation), and 2) a term related to the on-
resistance of the MOS switches.

Ultra-Precision Voltage Divider
An ultra-precision voltage divider is shown in Figure 10. To
achieve the 0.0002% accuracy indicated, the load current
should be kept below 100nA. However, with a slight loss
in accuracy, the load current can be increased.

is nota capaci-
tive reactance equation (X

a 2

term.
The exact expression for output impedance is extremely
complex, but the dominant effect of the capacitor is clearly
shown in Figure 5. For C1 = C2 = 10
μ
F, the output
impedance goes from 56
at f

at

= 1kHz. As the 1/(f

C) term becomes large compared
to the switch on-resistance term, the output resistance is
determined by 1/(f

C) only.
Voltage Doubling
Figure 9 shows a two-diode capacitive voltage doubler.
With a 15V input, the output is 29.45V with no load and
28.18V with a 10mA load.

A common need in many systems is to obtain (+) and (–
)
supplies from a single battery or single power supply
system. Where current requirements are small, the circuit
shown in Figure 11 is a simple solution. It provides
symmetrical
±
output voltages, both equal to one half the
input voltage. The output voltages are both referenced to
pin 3 (output common).
