Product details
Overview
TC1121EOA713 from Microchip Technology is a 100 mA charge pump voltage inverter IC that converts 2.4V–5.5V positive input to a corresponding negative output without inductors. It features selectable oscillator frequency (10–200 kHz), 50 µA quiescent current (FC open), and shutdown control. It serves as a compact, low-EMI negative rail generator in space-constrained portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the TC1121EOA713 datasheet, TC1121EOA713 pinout, TC1121EOA713 application, or TC1121EOA713 equivalent, key selection factors include its -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature rating, 8-pin SOIC package with 713 taping orientation, dual-capacitor topology, and oscillator frequency programmability via FC pin.
Technical Context
The TC1121EOA713 implements a switched-capacitor inverter architecture with internal oscillator control logic and a 4-switch matrix. Its output voltage magnitude tracks input (VOUT ≈ –VIN) with no active regulation, yielding ~11.8 Ω typical output resistance at 100 mA load.
Oscillator frequency is set by FC pin state (10 kHz typ. when open; 200 kHz typ. when tied to V+) or overridden externally via OSC pin. Ripple frequency equals half the selected oscillator frequency, enabling ripple reduction through capacitor scaling or frequency increase.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Current | 100 mA max - supports moderate-power analog rails or op-amp biasing |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.4V to 5.5V - compatible with single-cell Li-ion, 3.3V, and 5V logic supplies |
| Oscillator Frequency | 10 kHz to 200 kHz - enables trade-off between capacitor size (smaller at 200 kHz) and quiescent current (lower at 10 kHz) |
| Quiescent Current | 50 µA typ. (FC open) - minimizes standby power in battery-operated systems |
| Shutdown Current | <1 µA - ensures near-zero power draw during system sleep modes |
| Output Resistance | 12 Ω typ. - defines load-induced voltage droop (e.g., ~1.2V drop at 100 mA) |
| Operating Temp | -40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial and extended-temperature embedded applications |
Pinout & Package
TC1121EOA713 is housed in an 8-pin SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) package, 3.99 mm × 4.90 mm body, 1.27 mm pitch, with standard 713 reel taping orientation (pin 1 in upper-left corner of carrier tape).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 FC | Frequency control input | Open = 10 kHz oscillator; tied to V+ = 200 kHz; no effect when OSC driven externally |
| 2 CAP+ | Charge-pump capacitor positive terminal | Connects to positive plate of flying capacitor C1; switches between V+ and VOUT nodes |
| 3 GND | Power-supply ground reference | Return path for internal logic and switch matrix; must be low-impedance |
| 4 CAP– | Charge-pump capacitor negative terminal | Connects to negative plate of flying capacitor C1; switches between GND and VOUT nodes |
| 5 VOUT | Negative output voltage terminal | Delivers inverted output (≈ –VIN); source impedance ~12 Ω limits heavy-load regulation |
| 6 SHDN | Active-high shutdown control | Logic high enables operation; logic low reduces supply current to <1 µA |
| 7 OSC | Oscillator control/external clock input | Accepts external CMOS clock or external capacitor to ground for sub-10 kHz operation |
| 8 V+ | Positive input supply | Primary power input (2.4V–5.5V); powers internal logic and switch drivers |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No-inductor design | Eliminates magnetic EMI, reduces board area, and lowers BOM cost versus inductive DC/DC inverters |
| Selectable oscillator frequency | Enables optimization of external capacitor size (10–200 kHz range) without changing layout |
| Ultra-low shutdown current | <1 µA shutdown draw extends battery life in always-on or duty-cycled portable instruments |
| Industrial temperature grade | -40°C to +85°C operation supports deployment in medical, test, and industrial environments |
| Single-supply negative generation | Derives clean negative rail from single positive supply-no split-rail or transformer needed |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar charge pump inverter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX680ESA+ | Fixed 10 kHz oscillator; no FC pin; 100 mA output; SOIC-8; -40°C to +85°C | Lacks frequency selectability - requires fixed 10 µF/100 µF capacitor set; no external clock option | Choose when design prioritizes simplicity over capacitor size optimization |
| LM27761DSGR | Integrated LDO post-regulator; 250 mA output; 2.7V–5.5V input; WSON-10; -40°C to +85°C | Provides regulated -5V output (±1%) vs. TC1121EOA713's unregulated inversion; higher cost and pin count | Choose when precise, load-independent negative voltage is required over raw efficiency or footprint |
Compared with MAX680ESA+ and LM27761DSGR, TC1121EOA713 offers unique frequency programmability for capacitor sizing trade-offs and delivers the lowest quiescent current (50 µA) among these three, making it optimal for battery-sensitive industrial instrumentation where unregulated but predictable inversion suffices.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the TC1121EOA713?
The TC1121EOA713 is rated for -40°C to +85°C operation, confirmed by Microchip's DS20001358D datasheet Section 1.0 (Absolute Maximum Ratings) and Device Selection Table. This E-suffix grade makes TC1121EOA713 suitable for industrial and extended-temperature applications where commercial-grade variants (C-suffix) would fail.
Does the TC1121EOA713 require external inductors?
No, the TC1121EOA713 uses a switched-capacitor (charge pump) architecture and requires only two external capacitors - no inductors. As stated in the General Description on DS20001358D-page 1, this eliminates EMI concerns and reduces board area, distinguishing TC1121EOA713 from inductive DC/DC inverters.
How does the FC pin affect TC1121EOA713 performance?
The FC pin on TC1121EOA713 selects internal oscillator frequency: open circuit yields ~10 kHz (minimizing quiescent current), while connection to V+ raises it to ~200 kHz (enabling smaller external capacitors). Per DS20001358D-page 3 Electrical Specifications, FOSC ranges from 5–10 kHz to 100–200 kHz depending on FC state - a key design lever in TC1121EOA713 layout optimization.
What is the typical output resistance of the TC1121EOA713?
The TC1121EOA713 has a typical output source resistance (ROUT) of 12 Ω, with a maximum of 20 Ω, as specified in the Electrical Specifications table (DS20001358D-page 3). This value directly determines load-induced voltage droop - e.g., a 100 mA load causes ~1.2 V drop from ideal -5V, making TC1121EOA713 appropriate for moderate-precision applications.
Can TC1121EOA713 be used in shutdown mode to reduce power consumption?
Yes, TC1121EOA713 features an active-high SHDN pin. When pulled low, shutdown current drops to less than 1 µA (typ. 0.2 µA), as verified in the Electrical Specifications table (DS20001358D-page 3). This ultra-low shutdown draw makes TC1121EOA713 ideal for battery-powered systems requiring long idle periods without compromising wake-up responsiveness.
