By configuring a comparator and a transistor to control the oscillator in a charge pump circuit, you enable the pump to generate a regulated output of in principle any desired value. Charge pump ICs can either invert or double an input voltage (for example, tiga V to ?Tiga V or tiga V to 6 V). The charge pump itself does not regulate the output voltage and one running off tiga V is not normally capable of generating intermediate hasil voltage levels like 5 V. However, by adding a comparator and a reference device, you can create arbitrary hasil levels like 5 V and regulate them as well.
Inductorless tiga-to-lima Volts Converter Circuit Diagram:
Charge pump IC1 (a MAX660) has an internal oscillator whose 45 kHz operation transfers charge from C1 to C2, causing the regulated hasil to rise.
When the feedback voltage (pin 3 of IC2) exceeds 1.18 V, the hasil of comparator IC2 (a MAX921) goes high, turning off the oscillator via T1. The comparator hysteresis (easily added on IC2) is zero here simply because no hysteresis is required in the control loop. The oscillator when enabled generates two cycles, which is sufficient to drive VOUT slightly above the desired level. Next, the feedback turns the oscillator off again.
The resulting hasil ripple will depend mainly on the input voltage and the hasil load current. Output ripple may be reduced at the expense of circuit efficiency by adding a small resistor (say, 1 ?) in series with C1. You?Ll find that ripple also depends on the value and ESR associated with C1 - smaller values of C1 transfer less charge to C2, producing smaller jumps in V OUT.
