description The TPS6040x is a family of devices that generate an unregulated negative output voltage from an input voltage ranging from 1.6 V to 5.5 V. The devices are typically supplied by a preregulated supply rail of 5 V or 3.3 V. Due to its wide input voltage range, two or three Ni Cd, Ni MH, or alkaline battery cells, as well as one Li-Ion cell can also power them. Only three external 1-µF capacitors are required to build a complete dc/dc charge pump inverter. Assembled in a 5-pin SOT23 package, the complete converter can be built on a 50 mm2 board area. Additional board area and component count reduction is achieved by replacing the Schottky diode that is typically needed for start-up into load by integrated circuitry.
tp Vo lt ag
The TPS6040x can deliver a maximum output current of 60 m A with a typical conversion efficiency of greater than 90% over a wide output current range. Three device options with 20-k Hz, 50-k Hz, and 250-k Hz fixed frequency operation are available. One device comes with a variable switching frequency to reduce operating current in applications with a wide load range and enables the design with low-value capacitors.
