This pin is active low (SHDN) for the LTC1550 and active high (SHDN) for the LTC1551. When this pin is at VCC (GND for LTC1551), the LTC1550 operates normally. When SHDN is pulled low (high for LTC1551), the LTC1550 enters shutdown mode. In shutdown, the charge pump stops, the output collapses to 0V, and the quiescent current drops typically to 0.2µA. VCC: Power Supply. VCC requires an input voltage between 4.5V and 6.5V for the fixed voltage LTC1550CS8-4.1/ LTC1551CS8-4.1. The adjustable voltage LTC1550CGN/ LTC1550IGN operates with a VCC range of 2.7V to 6.5V. Output voltage and output load current conditions depend on the VCC supply voltage. Consult the Electrical Characteristics table and Typical Performance Characteristics for guaranteed test points. The difference between the input voltage and output should never be set to exceed 14V or damage to the chip may occur. VCC must be bypassed to PGND (GND for 8-pin packages) with at least a 0.1µF capacitor placed in close proximity to the chip. A 4.7µF or larger bypass capacitor is recommended to minimize noise and ripple at the output. C1 +: C1 Positive Input. Connect a 0.1µF capacitor between C1 + and C1 –. VOUT: Negative Voltage Output. This pin must be bypassed to ground with a 4.7µF or larger capacitor to ensure regulator loop stability. At least 10µF is recommended to provide specified output ripple. An additional 0.1µF low ESR capacitor is recommended to minimize high frequency spikes at the output. C1 –: C1 Negative Input. Connect a 0.1µF capacitor from C1 + to C1 –. GND: Ground. Connect to a low impedance ground. A ground plane will help minimize regulation errors. CPOUT: Negative Charge Pump Output. This pin requires a 0.1µF storage capacitor to ground. SENSE: Connect to VOUT. The LTC1550/LTC1551 internal regulator uses this pin to sense the output voltage. For optimum regulation, SENSE should be connected close to the output load. SSOP PACKAGE ONLY PGND: Power Ground. Connect to a low impedance ground. PGND should be connected to the same potential as AGND. AGND: Analog Ground. Connect to a low impedance ground. AGND should be connected to a ground plane to minimize regulation errors. 5 LTC1550/LTC1551 U U U PIN FUNCTIONS REG: This is an open-drain output that pulls low when the output voltage is within 5% of the set value. It will sink 7mA to ground with a 5V supply. The external circuitry must provide a pull-up or REG will not swing high. The voltage at REG may exceed VCC and can be pulled up to 12V above ground without damage. divider string from AGND to VOUT with the divided tap connected to ADJ.

The LTC1550CS8/LTC1551CS8 provide a regulated, low ripple – 4.1V output at up to 10mA load current from a single 5V supply. The LTC1550CGN provides a regulated, low ripple adjustable output. Output load current for the adjustable version depends on the input/output voltage combination. 6 Consult the graph provided in the Typical Performance Characteristics section and the Electrical Characteristics table for guaranteed test points. The LTC1550/LTC1551 are ideal for use as bias voltage generators for GaAs transmitter FETs in portable RF and cellular telephone applications. The LTC1550 features an active-low Shutdown pin (SHDN) that drops quiescent current to below 1µA. The LTC1551 is identical to the LTC1550, LTC1550/LTC1551 U W U U APPLICATIONS INFORMATION except that the Shutdown pin is active-high (SHDN). All members of the LTC1550 family feature a 900kHz charge pump frequency. The LTC1550/ LTC1551 come standard with fixed – 4.1V output voltages and the LTC1550 is available with an adjustable output voltage. Both devices can be configured with other fixed output voltages; contact Linear Technology for more information. The LTC1550 consists of two major blocks (see Block Diagram): an inverting charge pump and a negative linear regulator. The charge pump uses two external capacitors, C1 and CCP to generate a negative voltage at CPOUT. It operates by charging and discharging C1 on alternate phases of the internal 900kHz clock. C1 is initially charged to VCC through switches S1 and S3. When the internal clock changes phase, S1 and S3 open and S2 and S4 close, shorting the positive side of C1 to ground. This forces the negative side of C1 below ground, and charge is transferred to CCP through S4. As this cycle repeats, the magnitude of the negative voltage approaches VCC. The 900kHz internal clock frequency helps keep noise out of 400kHz to 600kHz IF bands commonly used by portable radio frequency systems and reduces the size of the external capacitors required. Most applications can use standard 0.1µF ceramic capacitors for C1 and CCP. Increasing C1 and CCP beyond 0.1µF has little effect on the output ripple or the output current capacity of the LTC1550/LTC1551. The negative voltage at CPOUT supplies the input to the negative regulator block. This block consists of an N-channel MOSFET pass device and a feedback amplifier that monitors the output voltage and compares it to the internal reference. The regulated output appears at the VOUT pin. The regulation loop is optimized for fast transient response, enabling it to remove most of the switching artifacts present at the CPOUT pin. Output ripple is typically below 1mVP-P with output loads between 0mA and 10mA. The output voltage is set to – 4.1V by a pair of internal divider resistors. The N-channel pass device minimizes dropout, allowing the output to remain in regulation with supply voltages as low as 4.5V. An output capacitor of at least 4.7µF from VOUT to ground is required to keep the regulator loop stable; for optimum stability and minimum output ripple, at least 10µF is recommended.

External Resistor Connections Adjustable Hook-Up The LTC1550CGN is available in an adjustable output version in a 16-pin SSOP package. The output voltage is set with a resistor divider from GND to SENSE/VOUT (Figure 1). Note that the internal reference and the internal feedback amplifier are set up as a positive-output regulator referenced to the SENSE pin, not a negative regulator referenced to ground. The output resistor divider must be set to provide a 1.24V at the ADJ pin with respect to VOUT. For example, a – 3V output would require a 13k resistor from GND to ADJ, and a 9.1k resistor to SENSE/VOUT. If, after connecting the divider resistors, the output voltage is not what you expected, try swapping them. CAPACITOR SELECTION The LTC1550/LTC1551 requires four external capacitors: an input bypass capacitor, two 0.1µF charge pump capacitors and an output filter capacitor. The overall behavior of the LTC1550/LTC1551 is strongly affected by the capacitors used. In particular, the output capacitor has a significant effect on the output ripple and noise performance. Proper capacitor selection is critical for optimum performance of the LTC1550/LTC1551. Output Ripple vs Output Capacitor Figure 3 shows the effect of using different output capacitor values on LTC1550/LTC1551 output ripple. These curves are taken using the circuit in Figure 2, with CIN = 4.7µF and ILOAD = 5mA. The upper curve shows the performance with a standard tantalum capacitor alone and the lower curve shows the tantalum capacitor in parallel with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor. As a general rule, larger 7 LTC1550/LTC1551 U U W U APPLICATIONS INFORMATION output capacitors provide lower output ripple. To keep ripple below 1mVP-P, 10µF or greater, with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor in parallel, is required. At least 4.7µF is required at the output under all conditions to guarantee loop stability. Figure 3 shows a marked decrease in peak-to-peak output ripple when a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor added in parallel with the tantalum output capacitor. The additional ripple with the tantalum output capacitor alone is mostly very high order harmonics of the 900kHz clock, which appear as sharp "spikes" at the output. The energy in these spikes is very small and they do not contribute to the RMS output voltage, but their peak-to-peak amplitude can be several millivolts under some conditions. A garden variety 0.1µF ceramic capacitor has significantly lower impedance at the spike frequency than even a large tantalum capacitor, and helps eliminate most of these left-over switching spikes that the tantalum capacitor leaves behind. Figure 4 and 5 show scope photos of the output of Figure 3 with and without the additional ceramic capacitor at the output. A series RC or LC filter can reduce high frequency output noise even further. Due to the high 900kHz switching frequency, not much R or L is required; a ferrite bead or a relatively long PC board trace in series with 0.1µF ceramic capacitor will usually keep the output ripple well below 1mVP-P.

The corresponding spectrum and spot noise plots for this circuit are shown in the Typical Performance Characteristics section. Output Ripple vs Input Bypass Capacitor The input bypass capacitor (CIN) can also have a fairly significant impact on the output ripple. CIN provides most of the LTC1550/LTC1551’s supply current while it is charging the flying capacitor (C1). Inadequate input bypass can cause the VCC supply to dip when the charge pump switches, causing the output linear regulator to momentarily stop regulating. CIN should be mounted as close to the LTC1550/LTC1551 as possible and its value should be significantly larger than C1. Tantalum capacitors with low ESR generally provide adequate performance. Figure 6 shows the LTC1550/LTC1551 peak-to-peak output ripple vs CIN, taken using the test circuit in Figure 2 with ILOAD set at 5mA. COUT is a 10µF in parallel with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor.
