ICL7660SIBAZT

The ICL7660SIBAZT is a monolithic CMOS voltage converter from Intersil (now part of Renesas Electronics). It converts a positive input voltage to a corresponding negative output voltage, typically providing -1x the input voltage, ideal for generating negative supply rails where none exist.

Key Features:

• Voltage Conversion: Converts positive voltage input to negative voltage output.
• Integrated Switches: Includes internal oscillator and switches for voltage conversion.
• Low Power Consumption: Designed for low power operation, suitable for battery-powered applications.
• Wide Operating Voltage Range: Supports a wide range of input voltages for versatility in different applications.
• Compact Package: Available in a compact SOIC-8 package for space-constrained designs.
• Temperature Stability: Provides stable performance across varying temperature conditions.
• Overload Protection: Built-in overload protection to safeguard against excessive currents.

Applications:

• Battery-Powered Devices: Used in portable electronics requiring dual supply voltages from a single battery source.
• Audio Equipment: Provides dual voltage rails for audio amplifiers and other audio processing circuits.
• RS-232 Communication: Commonly used in RS-232 interface circuits to generate negative voltages for serial communication.
• LCD Displays: Used in LCD drivers and bias circuits to generate required negative voltages.
• Industrial Equipment: Provides negative voltage rails in industrial control and automation systems.
• Medical Instruments: Used in medical devices requiring dual voltage rails from a single power source.
