Product details
Overview
LM2662MX from Texas Instruments is a CMOS switched-capacitor voltage inverter IC that converts 1.5 V–5.5 V positive input to corresponding negative output, delivers up to 200 mA, features selectable 20 kHz/150 kHz oscillator frequency via FC pin, and targets space-constrained battery-powered systems requiring clean dual-rail supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LM2662MX datasheet, LM2662MX pinout, LM2662MX application, or LM2662MX equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual-frequency operation, low 3.5 Ω typical output resistance, 86% conversion efficiency at 200 mA, shutdown-compatible topology (via FC control), and SOIC-8 package compatibility with legacy LMC7660 designs.
Technical Context
The LM2662MX implements a four-switch charge-pump architecture with internal CMOS switches sequenced by an oscillator whose frequency is selected between 20 kHz (FC open) and 150 kHz (FC = V+). Switching frequency is half the oscillator frequency, directly impacting output resistance and ripple.
It supports inverter mode only - unlike the LM2663MX, it lacks a dedicated shutdown pin and cannot enter 10 μA quiescent mode. The LV pin must be tied to GND for inputs <3.5 V to bypass internal regulation, and OSC can accept external clock drive only in inverter configuration.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 1.5 V to 5.5 V - supports single-cell Li-ion, alkaline, and regulated 3.3 V/5 V rails without external regulators. |
| Oscillator Frequency | 20 kHz (FC open) or 150 kHz (FC = V+) - higher frequency enables smaller external capacitors and lower output impedance. |
| Output Current | 200 mA continuous - sufficient for op-amp biasing, RS-232 interface generation, and small-signal analog circuitry. |
| Output Resistance | 3.5 Ω typical at 200 mA - determines load regulation error (e.g., 700 mV drop at full load); includes switch RON and capacitor ESR contributions. |
| Conversion Efficiency | 86% typical at 200 mA - balances power loss vs. size/EMI trade-offs versus inductor-based inverters. |
| Quiescent Current | 0.3 mA typical (FC = open) - enables ultra-low standby power in portable instrumentation. |
| Package | SOIC-8 (4.90 mm × 3.91 mm) - industry-standard footprint compatible with automated assembly and thermal relief design. |
Pinout & Package
LM2662MX is housed in an 8-pin SOIC (D) package with 1.27 mm pitch, JEDEC MS-012 compliant, and rated for −40°C to +85°C ambient operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 FC | Frequency Control Input | Selects oscillator frequency: open = 20 kHz, tied to V+ = 150 kHz; no effect when OSC driven externally. |
| 2 CAP+ | Charge-Pump Capacitor Positive Terminal | Connects to positive terminal of flying capacitor C1; carries bidirectional high-frequency switching current. |
| 3 GND | Power Ground Reference | Primary return path for input supply, output load, and internal oscillator; requires low-inductance layout. |
| 4 CAP− | Charge-Pump Capacitor Negative Terminal | Connects to negative terminal of flying capacitor C1; forms pumping node with CAP+ during charge-transfer phase. |
| 5 OUT | Negative Voltage Output | Delivers inverted output (−VIN) with source impedance dominated by switch RON, C1/C2 ESR, and fOSC. |
| 6 LV | Low-Voltage Operation Input | Tie to GND for VIN < 3.5 V to bypass internal regulator; optional for higher inputs to simplify LMC7660 replacement. |
| 7 OSC | Oscillator Control Input | Accepts external clock (inverter mode only) or external capacitor to adjust frequency; internal 15 pF capacitance. |
| 8 V+ | Positive Supply Input | Accepts 1.5–5.5 V input; powers internal oscillator and switch drivers; requires local ceramic bypassing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Inverting voltage conversion | Generates clean negative rail from single positive supply-eliminates need for inductors, reduces EMI, and saves board area. |
| Selectably programmable oscillator | 20 kHz/150 kHz toggle via FC pin enables optimization between low-noise (low-f) and low-impedance (high-f) operation. |
| Low-output-resistance architecture | 3.5 Ω typical output resistance supports stable ±1% regulation under 100 mA loads without external LDO post-regulation. |
| Wide input voltage range | Operates down to 1.5 V - enables direct use with single alkaline or NiMH cells, extending battery life in handheld instruments. |
| External clock synchronization | OSC pin accepts CMOS-level external clock (≤150 kHz) - allows system-level timing coordination and noise spectrum spreading. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage inverter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM2663MX | Dedicated SD pin enables 10 μA shutdown current; fixed 150 kHz oscillator; no FC pin. | Better suited for intermittent-operation systems (e.g., sensor nodes) where ultra-low standby power is critical. | Choose LM2663MX if shutdown capability outweighs frequency flexibility; not pin-compatible due to FC/SD pin swap. |
| MAX680ESA+ | Fixed 100 kHz oscillator; higher 100 mA output; integrated flying caps not required but supported. | Targeted at lower-current, cost-sensitive consumer applications; lacks LV pin and wide 1.5–5.5 V range. | Choose MAX680ESA+ for simpler BOMs in ≤100 mA designs; requires different capacitor sizing and has no LV control. |
Compared with LM2663MX and MAX680ESA+, the LM2662MX uniquely balances frequency configurability, wide input range, and moderate output current - making it optimal for portable instrumentation where dynamic load profiles and battery voltage sag must be accommodated without sacrificing regulation or noise performance.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for reliable startup of the LM2662MX?
The LM2662MX guarantees functional startup down to 1.5 V when the LV pin is tied to GND. Below 3.5 V, grounding LV bypasses internal regulation circuitry to maintain oscillator stability and switch drive strength - critical for single-cell alkaline or NiMH applications where voltage sags under load.
Can the LM2662MX be used as a positive voltage doubler?
No - the LM2662MX is functionally limited to inverting mode only. Its pinout and internal logic lack the LV-to-OUT tie requirement and V+/GND signal reversal needed for doubling. For voltage doubling, TI specifies the LM2663MX or dedicated doublers like the MAX680ESA+.
How does oscillator frequency selection affect output ripple and efficiency of the LM2662MX?
At 150 kHz (FC = V+), output ripple decreases due to higher charge-transfer rate, but quiescent current rises from 0.3 mA to 1.3 mA - reducing light-load efficiency. At 20 kHz (FC open), ripple increases but efficiency exceeds 96% below 10 mA, making it ideal for intermittent-sensing applications.
Is the LM2662MX pin-compatible with the LMC7660?
Yes - the LM2662MX shares identical SOIC-8 pinout, voltage ranges, and basic inverter functionality with the LMC7660, enabling direct drop-in replacement. However, the LM2662MX adds FC pin control and improved 200 mA output capability, while retaining backward-compatible LV and OSC behavior.
What external components are mandatory for basic LM2662MX operation?
Two external capacitors are mandatory: a flying capacitor (C1) between CAP+ and CAP−, and an output capacitor (C2) between OUT and GND. TI recommends 47 μF, low-ESR tantalum or ceramic types. A 0.1 μF ceramic bypass capacitor between V+ and GND is also required for stable oscillator operation.
