50mA, Frequency-Selectable,
Switched-Capacitor Voltage Converters
_______________General Description
The MAX860/MAX861 charge-pump voltage converters
invert input voltages ranging from +1.5V to +5.5V, or
double input voltages ranging from +2.5V to +5.5V.
Because of their high switching frequencies, these
devices use only two small, low-cost capacitors. Their
50mA output makes switching regulators unnecessary,
eliminating inductors and their associated cost, size,
and EMI. Greater than 90% efficiency over most of the
load-current range, combined with a typical operating
current of only 200µA (MAX860), provides ideal perfor-
mance for both battery-powered and board-level volt-
age-conversion applications.
A frequency-control (FC) pin provides three switching-
frequencies to optimize capacitor size and quiescent
current and to prevent interference with sensitive cir-
cuitry. Each device has a unique set of three available
— —
— –
frequencies. A shutdown (SHDN) pin reduces current
consumption to less than 1µA. The MAX860/MAX861
are suitable for use in applications where the ICL7660
and MAX660's switching frequencies are too low. The
MAX860/MAX861 are available in 8-pin µMAX and
SO packages.

may damage the device and should be
avoided. Also, for temperatures above +85°C, OUT must not be shorted to GND or V
DD
, even instantaneously, or device
damage may result.
Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

C1 and C2 are low-ESR (<0.2Ω) aluminum electrolytics. Capacitor ESR adds to the circuit’s output resistance. Using
capacitors with higher ESR may reduce output voltage and efficiency.
MAX860/MAX861 may draw high supply current during startup, up to the minimum operating supply voltage. To guaran-
tee proper startup, the input supply must be capable of delivering 90mA more than the maximum load current.
Specified output resistance includes the effect of the 0.2Ω ESR of the test circuit’s capacitors.
The switches are driven directly at the oscillator frequency, without any division.
At lowest frequencies, using 10µF capacitors gives worse efficiency figures than using the recommended capacitor
values in Table 3, due to larger 1 ⁄ (f
s
x C1) term in R
OUT
.
