Product Description
The CM4072 Low-noise Charge Pump / LDO Regulator is
designed to power white backlight LEDs used in main dis-
plays or camera flash LEDs in wireless handsets. The 5V
output provides up to 100mA continuous current for input
voltages from 3.0V to 5.5V, and up to 200mA for a nar-
rower range. This is accomplished with an integrated
charge pump that boosts the input voltage before feeding
it to an internal LDO linear regulator. The CM4072 oper-
ates with excellent power supply ripple rejection while
maintaining good power efficiency. The device utilizes two
external capacitors and operates at 250kHz. Separate
analog and digital ground pins are provided for the charge
pump and the rest of the circuitry to eliminate ground
noise feed-through from the charge pump to the regulated
output.
The CM4072 provides both overcurrent and thermal over-
load protection. Two enable inputs provide flexibility in
powering down the device. To maximize power saving in
shutdown mode, both enable inputs should be at a logic
low level. For applications that require the 5V output to be
re-established with minimum delay after shutdown, the
charge pump can be left enabled while the regulator is
disabled. The CMOS LDO regulator features low quies-
cent current even at full load, making it very suitable for
power sensitive applications.
A bypass pin is provided to further minimize noise by con-
necting an external capacitor between this pin and
ground.
The CM4072 is available in a 10-lead TDFN package,
with optional lead-free finishing, and is ideal for space crit-
ical applications
.

DESCRIPTION
Ground for the charge pump circuit. This should be connected to the system (noisy) ground.
Input power source for the device. Since the charge pump draws current in pulses at the
250kHz internal clock frequency, a low-ESR input decoupling capacitor is usually required close
to this pin to ensure low noise operation.
Charge pump output which is connected to the external reservoir capacitor C
S
. This should be a
low-ESR capacitor. When the voltage on this pin reaches about 5.8V then the charge pump
pauses until the voltage on this pin drops to about 5.7V. This gives rise to at least 100mV of 'rip-
ple' (the frequency and amplitude of this ripple depends upon values of C
P
and C
S
and also the
ESR of C
S
).
Ground reference for all internal circuits except the charge pump. This pin should be connected
to a "clean" low-noise analog ground
Bypass input connected to the internal voltage reference of the LDO regulator. An external
bypass capacitor C
BYP
of 0.1uF is recommended to minimize internal voltage reference noise
and maximize power supply ripple rejection.
EN_LDO (pin 6) and EN_CP (pin 7) are active-high TTL-level logic inputs to enable the linear
regulator and charge pump according to the following truth table:

The regulated output. An output capacitor may be added to improve noise and load-transient
response. When the LDO regulator is disabled, an internal pull-down with a nominal resistance
of 50 ohms is activated to discharge the V
OUT
rail to GND
CP+ (pin 9) and CP- (pin 10) are used to connect the external "flying" capacitor C
P
to the charge
pump. The charge stored in C
P
is transferred to the reservoir capacitor C
S
at the 250kHz inter-
nal clock rate.
