Note 1: Package thermal resistances were obtained using the method described in JEDEC specification JESD51-7, using a four-layer
board. For detailed information on package thermal considerations, refer to www.maximintegrated.com/thermal-tutorial.
Note 2: This device is constructed using a unique set of packaging techniques that impose a limit on the thermal profile the device
can be exposed to during board-level solder attach and rework. Maxim recommends the use of the solder profiles recommended in the industry-standard specification, JEDEC 020A, paragraph 7.6, Table 3 for IR/VPR and Convection reflow
processes. Preheating, per this standard, is required. Hand or wave soldering is not recommended.
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.

Detailed Description
The MAX16945 capacitive charge pump inverts the
voltage applied to its input. For highest performance,
use low-ESR capacitors.
During the first half-cycle, switches S2 and S4 open,
switches S1 and S3 close, and capacitor C1 charges to
the voltage at IN (Figure 2). During the second halfcycle, S1 and S3 open, S2 and S4 close, and C1 is
level shifted downward by VIN volts. This connects C1
in parallel with the reservoir capacitor C2. If the voltage
across C2 is smaller than the voltage across C1,
charge flows from C1 to C2 until the voltage across C2
reaches -VIN. The absolute value of the inverting output

voltage is always smaller than the value of the input
voltage due to the losses of the flying capacitor C1 and
the resistance of the switches S1–S4.

Efficiency Considerations
Shutdown
The efficiency of the MAX16945 is dominated by its quiescent supply current (IQ) at low output current, and by
its output impedance (ROUT) at higher output current.
Efficiency is calculated as follows:
The MAX16945 has a logic-controlled shutdown input.
Driving SHDN low places the device in a low-power
shutdown mode. The charge-pump switching halts,
supply current is reduced to 2nA, and OUT is actively
pulled to ground through a 3Ω resistance.
Driving SHDN high will restart the charge pump. The
switching frequency and capacitor values determine
how soon the device will reach 90% of the input voltage.

)
The first term is the effective resistance of an ideal
switched-capacitor circuit (Figures 3a and 3b), and
RSW is the sum of the charge pump’s internal switch
resistances (typically 4Ω to 5Ω at VIN = +5V). The typical output impedance is more accurately determined
from the Typical Operating Characteristics.

Current Limit
The MAX16945 limits its input current upon startup to
170mA (typ). This prevents low-current or higher output
impedance input supplies (such as alkaline cells) from
being overloaded when power is applied or when the
device awakes from shutdown.

Capacitor Selection
The charge-pump output resistance is a function of the
ESR of C1 and C2. To maintain the lowest output resistance, use capacitors with low ESR.
Flying Capacitor (C1)
Increasing the flying capacitor’s value reduces the output resistance. Above a certain point, increasing C1’s
capacitance has negligible effect because the output
resistance is then dominated by internal switch resistance and capacitor ESR.
Output Capacitor (C2)
Increasing the output capacitor’s value reduces the
output ripple voltage. Decreasing its ESR reduces both
output resistance and ripple. Lower capacitance values
can be used with light loads if higher output ripple can
be tolerated. Use the following equation to calculate the
peak-to-peak ripple:

Input Bypass Capacitor (C3)
If necessary, bypass the incoming supply to reduce its
AC impedance and the impact of the MAX16945’s
switching noise. An input bypass capacitor (C3) with a
value equal to that of C1 is recommended.
Voltage Inverter
The most common application for these devices is a
charge-pump voltage inverter (Figure 1). This application requires only two external components, capacitors
C1 and C2, plus an input bypass capacitor C3, if necessary. See the Capacitor Selection section for suggested capacitor sizes.

30mA Inverting Charge Pump in SOT23

Cascading Devices
Combined Doubler/Inverter
Two devices can be cascaded to produce an even larger
negative voltage (Figure 4). The unloaded output voltage
is normally -2 x VIN, but this is reduced slightly by the output resistance of the first device when multiplied by the
quiescent current of the second. When cascading more
than two devices, the output resistance rises dramatically. The maximum load current and startup current of
the nth cascaded circuit must not exceed the maximum
output current capability of the (n-1)th circuit to ensure
proper startup.
In the circuit of Figure 6, capacitors C1 and C2 form the
inverter, while C3 and C4 form the doubler. C1 and C3
are the pump capacitors; C2 and C4 are the reservoir
capacitors. Because both the inverter and doubler use
part of the charge-pump circuit, loading either output
causes both outputs to decline toward GND. Make sure
the sum of the currents drawn from the two outputs
does not exceed 30mA.

Paralleling Devices
Heavy Load Connected
to a Positive Supply
Paralleling multiple MAX16945s reduces the output
resistance. Each device requires its own charge-pump
capacitor (C1), but the reservoir capacitor (C2) serves
all devices (Figure 5). Increase C2’s value by a factor
of n, where n is the number of parallel devices. Figure 5
shows the equation for calculating output resistance.
Under heavy loads, where a higher supply is sourcing
current into OUT, the OUT supply must not be pulled
above ground. Applications that sink heavy current into
OUT require a Schottky diode (1N5817) between GND
and OUT, with the anode connected to OUT (Figure 7).

Good layout is important, primarily for good noise performance. To ensure good layout, mount all components as close together as possible, keep traces short
to minimize parasitic inductance and capacitance, and
use a ground plane.
