Product details
Overview
LM2682MMX from Texas Instruments is a CMOS switched-capacitor voltage inverter that converts +2.0 V to +5.5 V input into −4.0 V to −11.0 V negative output, operates at 6 kHz switching frequency, delivers 10 mA output current with 90 Ω typical output impedance, and targets low-power portable systems requiring compact, inductorless bias supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LM2682MMX datasheet, LM2682MMX pinout, LM2682MMX application, or LM2682MMX equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, real-world design implications of its charge-pump architecture, confirmed VSSOP-8 package mapping, and validated alternatives for negative rail generation in space-constrained battery-powered devices.
Technical Context
The LM2682MMX implements a two-phase switched-capacitor topology that first inverts then doubles VIN to produce VOUT = −2×VIN, using three external ceramic capacitors (C1, C2, C3) without magnetic components. Its internal oscillator runs at 12 kHz, driving switches at 6 kHz to minimize EMI while maintaining >90% power efficiency at 10 mA load.
It features built-in protection against overvoltage (−11.6 V absolute max VOUT), continuous short-circuit tolerance, and operates across −40°C to +85°C ambient temperature. Output impedance is dominated by switch RON, capacitor ESR, and 1/(fOSC×C) terms-making low-ESR 3.3 μF capacitors critical to achieving the specified 90 Ω typical ROUT.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | +2.0 V to +5.5 V - supports single-cell Li-ion, dual-cell alkaline, or regulated 3.3 V/5 V rails |
| Output Voltage | −2×VIN (e.g., −5.0 V from +2.5 V) - fixed inversion-doubling ratio, no regulation loop |
| Switching Frequency | 6 kHz - enables use of small, low-cost ceramic capacitors; reduces EMI vs. higher-frequency pumps |
| Output Current | 10 mA - sufficient for LCD bias, GaAs PA gate control, or interface level-shifting loads |
| Output Impedance | 90 Ω typical at VIN = 5 V - determines load-induced voltage droop; impacts ripple and regulation under dynamic load |
| Quiescent Current | 150 μA - enables multi-year battery life in always-on instrumentation or handheld devices |
| Power Efficiency | 94% typical at 10 mA - minimizes heat rise in sealed enclosures and extends runtime |
Pinout & Package
LM2682MMX is packaged in an 8-pin VSSOP (DGK) with 0.65 mm pitch, 3.0 mm × 3.0 mm body, and exposed thermal pad (not electrically connected). The package supports automated placement and reflow per JEDEC Level-1 moisture sensitivity.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (C1−) | C1 capacitor negative terminal | Connects to ground side of flying capacitor C1; must be low-inductance path to GND |
| 2 (C2+) | C2 capacitor positive terminal | Node where C2 charges to VIN during phase 1; ties to C1+ and VOUT via internal switches |
| 3 (C2−) | C2 capacitor negative terminal | Connects to GND during phase 1; forms charge transfer path with C1 and C2 |
| 4 (VOUT) | Negative output voltage | Delivers −2×VIN; requires local 3.3–10 μF low-ESR ceramic output capacitor (C3) |
| 5 (GND) | Device ground reference | Primary return path for all internal switches and external capacitors; must be low-impedance plane |
| 6 (VIN) | Positive input supply | Accepts 2.0–5.5 V; bypass with 0.1 μF ceramic close to pin to suppress switching noise |
| 7 (C1+) | C1 capacitor positive terminal | Node where C1 charges to VIN during phase 1; connects to C2+ and VOUT in phase 2 |
| 8 (NC) | No connection | Internally unconnected; leave floating-no PCB trace or solder mask opening required |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar switched-capacitor inverter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX680ESA+ | Fixed −5 V output (not scalable); 10 kHz switching; 120 Ω output impedance; SO8 only | Requires fixed −5 V; less flexible for variable VIN systems; higher ROUT increases load droop | Select when exact −5 V is required and board space allows SOIC; avoid if scaling across 2.0–5.5 V inputs is needed |
| TPS60403DBVR | Adjustable output (−1.5 V to −5.5 V); 250 kHz switching; 170 Ω output impedance; integrated soft-start | Supports programmable output but with higher noise and lower efficiency (85% typ.); VSSOP-5 package | Choose when output voltage tuning is mandatory and higher ripple is acceptable; verify layout for 250 kHz EMI mitigation |
Compared with MAX680ESA+ and TPS60403DBVR, the LM2682MMX offers superior output impedance (90 Ω vs. ≥120 Ω) and wider input range (2.0–5.5 V vs. 4.5–5.5 V or 1.6–5.5 V), making it optimal for scalable negative rail generation in compact, battery-sensitive designs where predictable load regulation is critical.

FAQ
What is the exact output voltage behavior of the LM2682MMX?
The LM2682MMX generates a nominal output voltage of VOUT = −2×VIN, with no internal regulation. For example, with VIN = 2.5 V, VOUT ≈ −5.0 V; with VIN = 5.0 V, VOUT ≈ −10.0 V. Actual output varies with load, capacitor ESR, and temperature-typical deviation is ±3% at 10 mA with 3.3 μF low-ESR ceramics. The LM2682MMX does not include feedback or trimming, so external regulation (e.g., op-amp + reference) is required for tight tolerance.
Can the LM2682MMX operate from a 2.0 V supply?
Yes, the LM2682MMX is fully specified to operate from VIN = 2.0 V to +5.5 V. At 2.0 V input, it delivers approximately −4.0 V output with ≥5 mA capability and maintains >90% efficiency. Startup is guaranteed down to 2.0 V, and quiescent current remains near 150 μA-making it suitable for single-cell lithium or NiMH systems where brownout margin is critical.
What capacitor values and types are required for stable LM2682MMX operation?
The LM2682MMX requires three external ceramic capacitors: C1 and C2 (3.3 μF, X7R or better, 6 V or 12 V rating respectively), and C3 (3.3–10 μF, 12 V rating, low-ESR ≤100 mΩ). TI specifies 3.3 μF as optimal for 10 mA output with minimal ripple. Using smaller values (e.g., 1 μF) increases output impedance and ripple; aluminum electrolytics are not recommended due to high ESR and aging effects.
Is the LM2682MMX pin-compatible with the LM2682MM/NOPB or SOIC-8 variants?
No-the LM2682MMX uses the VSSOP-8 (DGK) package, while the SOIC-8 variant has different pin spacing (1.27 mm vs. 0.65 mm) and footprint. Although both share identical pin functions and numbering (C1−, C2+, etc.), the LM2682MMX is not mechanically or solder-reflow compatible with SOIC-8 layouts. Board redesign is required to migrate between packages; however, schematic connectivity remains identical.
Does the LM2682MMX support paralleling for higher output current?
Yes, multiple LM2682MMX units can be paralleled to increase output current and reduce effective output impedance. Each device requires its own C1 and C2 pumping capacitors, but a single shared C3 output capacitor suffices. With two LM2682MMX devices, maximum output current scales to ~20 mA and ROUT halves to ~45 Ω-enabling improved load regulation in high-current bias applications without changing external component count significantly.
