AIC1660
Switched-Capacitor Voltage Converter
n FEATURES
n DESCRIPTION
l Lowest Output Impedance (Typical 35W at
The AIC1660 is a monolithic CMOS switched
capacitor voltage converter. Designed to be an
improved direct replacement for the popular 7660
and LTC1044, the main function of the AIC1660 is
to convert a positive input voltage in the range of
1.5V to 6V to the corresponding negative output
voltage in the range of -1.5V to -6V. The input
voltage can also be doubled (VOUT = 2VIN ),
VIN=5V).
l Improved Direct Replacement for 7660.
l 1.5V to 6V Operation.
l No External Diode Required.
l Simple Conversion of +5V to -5V.
l Low Quiescent Current (Typical 36mA at VIN=5V).
l High Power Efficiency (Typical 98%)
l Boost Pin for Higher Switching Frequency.
l Improved SCR Latchup Protection.

±nVIN ), as shown in application examples.
The chip contains a series DC power supply
regulator, oscillator, control circuitry and four
output power MOS switches. The frequency of
oscillator can be lowered by the addition of an
external capacitor to the OSC pin, or the oscillator
may be over-driven by an external clock.
n APPLICATIONS
l RS-232 Power Supplies.
l Handheld Instruments.
l Data Acquisition Systems.
l Supply Splitter, VOUT= ±VIN /2.
l Operational Amplifier Supplies.
l Panel Meter.
The boost function is available to raise the
oscillator frequency to optimize performance in
specific applications. The “LV” terminal may be
tied to GND to improve low input voltage (VIN
£3V) operation, or be left floating for input voltage
larger than 3V to improve power dissipation.

The AIC1660 provides performance superior to
previous designs by combining low output
impedance, low quiescent current with high
efficiency, and by eliminating diode drop voltage
losses. The only required external components
are two low cost electrolytic capacitors.
