If the output ripple voltage, it is recommended that low ESR device is loaded from Vin to Vout, a small (0.7 F) capacitor capacitors be used. Additionally, larger values of C1 will between the pins is sufficient. lower the output resistance and larger values of C2 will reduce output voltage ripple. (See Equation 3). Voltage Inverter Table 1 shows various values of C The most common application for a charge pump is the 1, C2 and C3 with the corresponding output resistance values at 25°C. Table 2 voltage inverter (Figure 14). This application uses two or shows the output voltage ripple for various values of C three external capacitors. The C 1, C2 1 (pump capacitor) and C2 and C (output capacitor) are required. The input bypass capacitor 3. The data in Tables 1 and 2 was measured not calculated. C3, may be necessary depending on the application. The output is equal to −Vin plus any voltage drops due to loading. Refer to Tables 1 and 2 for capacitor selection. The test setup Table 1. Output Resistance vs. Capacitance used for the majority of the characterization is shown in (C1 = C2 = C3), Vin = 4.75 V and Vout = −4.0 V Figure 14.

Low ESR capacitors are recommended. The NCP1729 was characterized using the capacitors listed in Table 2. Output Voltage Ripple vs. Capacitance Table 3. This list identifies low ESR capacitors for the (C1 = C2 = C3), Vin = 4.75 V and Vout = −4.0 V voltage inverter application. C1 = C2 = C3Output Voltage Ripple(F)(mV)Table 3.
