Product details
Overview
TC7662BEOA from Microchip Technology is a charge pump DC-DC voltage converter IC that generates a regulated negative output (–VIN) from a +1.5V to +15V input using only two external capacitors-no inductor required. It delivers up to 20mA output current with 96% power efficiency at 5V input and operates with internal oscillator frequencies of 10kHz (default) or 35kHz (Boost pin = V+), supporting RS-232 power generation and data acquisition system biasing.
For engineers reviewing the TC7662BEOA datasheet, TC7662BEOA pinout, TC7662BEOA application, or TC7662BEOA equivalent, this device serves as a pin-compatible upgrade to the ICL7660 with extended temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), improved low-voltage operation via LV pin control, and reduced output impedance through Boost-enabled high-frequency switching.
Technical Context
The TC7662BEOA integrates MOSFET charge pump switches, an RC oscillator with selectable frequency (10kHz or 35kHz), voltage-level translators, and substrate bias logic to prevent latch-up across its full operating range. Its dual-mode oscillator allows dynamic trade-offs between ripple reduction (higher fOSC) and switching loss minimization (lower fOSC).
Internal anti-latchup circuitry includes a voltage regulator whose operation is disabled by grounding the LV pin for inputs ≤3.5V-enabling stable startup and low-VIN functionality-while leaving LV open ensures safe operation above 3.5V. Output source resistance ranges from 65Ω (typ, 25°C) to 120Ω (max, –40°C to +85°C) at 20mA load.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | +1.5V to +15V - supports single-supply systems from low-power logic (1.5V) to industrial rails (15V) |
| Oscillator Frequency | 10kHz (default) or 35kHz (Boost pin = V+) - enables smaller external capacitors (e.g., 0.1µF) without sacrificing output current |
| Power Efficiency | 96% (typ, RL = 5kΩ) - minimizes thermal rise and extends battery life in portable instrumentation |
| Output Source Resistance | 65Ω (typ, 25°C, 20mA) - defines maximum load regulation error and voltage droop under dynamic current steps |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for automotive cabin, industrial control, and outdoor embedded applications |
| Supply Current | ≤180µA (–40°C to +85°C, Boost open) - enables ultra-low-quiescent designs in always-on sensor nodes |
| Voltage Conversion Efficiency | 99.9% (typ, no load) - preserves input-to-output voltage fidelity for precision analog biasing |
Pinout & Package
TC7662BEOA is housed in an 8-pin SOIC package (JEDEC MS-012AC, 3.9mm × 4.9mm body, 1.27mm pitch), rated for surface-mount assembly and reflow compatibility.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (BOOST) | Oscillator frequency control input | Connect to V+ to raise oscillator frequency from 10kHz to 35kHz; reduces output impedance and ripple |
| 2 (CAP+) | Pump capacitor positive terminal | Drives charge transfer cycle; connects to + terminal of polarized electrolytic C1 (e.g., 10µF) |
| 3 (GND) | Ground reference | Common return for all internal circuitry and external capacitors; must be low-impedance |
| 4 (CAP–) | Pump capacitor negative terminal | Completes charge transfer path; connects to – terminal of C1 and + terminal of C2 |
| 5 (VOUT) | Negative output terminal | Delivers inverted output (–VIN); connects to – terminal of reservoir capacitor C2 and load |
| 6 (LV) | Low-voltage mode enable | Ground for VIN ≤3.5V to disable internal regulator and improve startup; leave open for VIN >3.5V |
| 7 (OSC) | Oscillator timing node | Accepts external capacitor to ground for frequency reduction (e.g., 100pF → 1kHz); unused in default mode |
| 8 (V+) | Positive supply input | Primary power rail; absolute max rating +16.5V; requires local 2.2µF bypass if source impedance >25Ω |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

| Wide input voltage range | Operates from 1.5V (e.g., single-cell LiFePO4) to 15V (industrial rails), enabling universal supply compatibility |
| Configurable oscillator | Frequency selection (10/35kHz) or external clocking (via 1kΩ series resistor) allows ripple/noise optimization per application |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the TC7662BEOA?
The TC7662BEOA has an absolute maximum supply voltage rating of +16.5V. Operation beyond this value risks permanent damage. The recommended operating range remains +1.5V to +15V per the datasheet's Electrical Characteristics table, with guaranteed performance across the full –40°C to +85°C temperature range. Exceeding +16.5V on V+ or applying voltages outside GND–V+ on any pin may cause destructive latch-up.
How does the BOOST pin affect TC7662BEOA performance?
Connecting the BOOST pin (Pin 1) to V+ increases the internal oscillator frequency from 10kHz to 35kHz. This reduces output impedance and ripple, allowing smaller external capacitors (e.g., 0.1µF instead of 10µF) while maintaining comparable output current. At 35kHz, supply current rises to 350µA (max, –40°C to +85°C), trading quiescent power for improved dynamic response.
Can TC7662BEOA replace ICL7660 in existing designs?
Yes, TC7662BEOA is explicitly designed as a pin-compatible upgrade to the ICL7660. It shares identical pinout, footprint, and basic functional behavior while offering higher efficiency (96% vs. ~90%), wider input range (1.5V–15V vs. 1.5V–12V), and extended temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). No PCB modifications are required for drop-in replacement in most legacy designs.
What is the role of the LV pin on TC7662BEOA?
The LV pin enables low-voltage operation mode. For input voltages ≤3.5V, grounding LV disables the internal voltage regulator to improve startup reliability and reduce dropout. For inputs >3.5V, LV must remain open to ensure latch-up protection. Incorrect LV connection (e.g., grounding LV at 5V input) compromises anti-latchup circuitry and may cause device failure.
What capacitor types and values are recommended for TC7662BEOA?
TC7662BEOA requires two external polarized electrolytic capacitors: C1 (pump, 10µF typical) connected between CAP+ and CAP–, and C2 (reservoir, 10µF typical) between VOUT and GND. For Boost-mode (35kHz), 0.1µF X7R ceramics suffice. Low-ESR electrolytics (<10Ω) are critical-high ESR directly degrades output impedance and ripple per VRIPPLE ≅ (IOUT × t2/C2) + (2 × IOUT × ESRC2).
