General Description
The TC962 is an advanced version of the industry
standard TC7662 high voltage DC-to-DC converter.
Using improved design techniques and CMOS
construction, the TC962 can source as much as 80mA
versus the 7662s 20mA capability.
As an inverter, the TC962 can put out voltages as high
as 18V and as low as 3V without the need for external
diodes. The output impedance of the device is a low
28 (with the proper capacitors), voltage conversion
efficiency is 99.9%, and power conversion efficiency is
97%.
The low voltage terminal (pin 6) required in some
TC7662 applications has been eliminated. Grounding
this terminal will double the oscillator frequency from
12kHz to 24kHz. This will allow the use of smaller
capacitors for the same output current and ripple, in
most applications. Only two external capacitors are
required for inverter applications. In the event an
external clock is needed to drive the TC962 (such as
paralleling), driving this pin directly will cause the
internal oscillator to sync to the external clock.
Pin 1, which is used as a test pin on the 7662, is a
voltage reference zener on the TC962. This zener
(6.4V at 5mA) has a dynamic impedance of 12 and is
intended for use where the TC962 is supplying current
to external regulator circuitry and a reference is needed
for the regulator circuit. (See Section 3.0 Applications
Information).
The TC962 is compatible with the LTC1044, SI7661
and ICL7662. It should be used in designs that require
greater power and/or less input to output voltage drop.
It offers superior performance over the ICL7660S.

3.0 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
3.1 Theory of Operation
The TC962 is a capacitive pump (sometimes called a
switched capacitor circuit), where four MOSFET
switches control the charge and discharge of a
capacitor.
The functional block diagram shows how the switching
action works. SW1 and SW2 are turned on simulta-
neously, charging C
P
to the supply voltage, V
IN
. This
assumes that the on resistance of the MOSFETs in
series with the capacitor results in a charging time
(3 time constants) that is less than the on time provided
by the oscillator frequency as shown:
3 (R
DS(ON)
C
P
) < C
P
/(0.5 f
OSC
)
In the next cycle, SW1 and SW2 are turned off and after
a very short interval of all switches being off (this
prevents large currents from occurring due to cross
conduction), SW3 and SW4 are turned on. The charge
in C
P
is then transferred to C
R
, but with the polarity
inverted. In this way, a negative voltage is now derived.
An oscillator supplies pulses to a flip-flop that is then
fed to a set of level shifters. These level shifters then
drive each set of switches at one-half the oscillator
frequency.
The oscillator has two pins that control the frequency of
oscillation. Pin 7 can have a capacitor added that is
returned to ground. This will lower the frequency of the
oscillator by adding capacitance to the timing capacitor
internal to the TC962. Grounding pin 6 will turn on a
current source and double the frequency. This will
double the charge current going into the internal
capacitor, as well as any capacitor added to pin 7.
A zener diode has been added to the TC962 for use as
a reference in building external regulators. This zener
runs from pin 1 to ground.
3.2 Latch Up
All CMOS structures contain a parasitic SCR. Care
must be taken to prevent any input from going above or
below the supply rail, or latch up will occur. The result
of latch up is an effective short between V
DD
and V
SS
.
Unless the power supply input has a current limit, this
latch up phenomena will result in damage to the device.
(See AN763 Latch-up Protection of CMOS ICs.)
