Switched-capacitor charge-pumps, which occupy less space than do their inductor-based counterparts, are popular for providing inverted voltages in small hand-held equipment. Combining a switchedcapacitor charge-pump with a precision reference, for example, yields an inverted reference from a positive power supply (Figure 1). Unlike the more typical combination of a positive 3-terminal reference and an op-amp inverter, this one delivers accurate inversions without the need for precision resistors and a negative supply. Figure 1. A precision negative reference. The charge-pump inverter (U2) delivers -5V by inverting the output of a 5V precision reference (U1). U1 accepts inputs between 5.2V and 12.5V. Replacing it with a 2.5V reference that accepts 2.7V to 12.5V, Page 1 of 3 as in the MAX6125, produces a -2.5V output. This circuit is very compact. It needs only three surfacemount capacitors, and the ICs occupy tiny SOT23 packages. Output-voltage accuracy depends partly on the initial accuracy of U1. The MAX6150/MAX6125 devices, for example, offer 1% accuracy. To this you must add the error due to the circuit's output voltage drop, which is less than 2mV for 90µA of load current (Figure 2). Figure 2. The load-regulation error of the circuit's output. For a -2.5V output, the circuit draws low quiescent currents that range from 86µA for a 2.7V input to 105µA for a 12.5V input. For -5V outputs, the circuit draws 127µA for 5.2V inputs and 140µA for 12.5V inputs (Figure 3). Page 2 of 3 Figure 3. The circuit's supply current as a function of load current.
