MAX868 Overview
The MAX868 inverting charge pump provides a low-cost and pact means of generating a regulated negative voltage up to -2 x V IN from a positive input voltage between 1.8V and 5.5V. It uses a pulse-frequencymodulation (PFM) control scheme to generate the regulated negative output voltage. PFM operation is obtained by gating the internal 450kHz oscillator on and off as needed to maintain output voltage regulation.
