Circuit Description
The LM2681 contains four large CMOS switches which are switched in a sequence to double the input supply
voltage. Energy transfer and storage are provided by external capacitors. Figure 12 illustrates the voltage
conversion scheme. When S
2
and S
4
are closed, C
1
charges to the supply voltage V+. During this time interval,
switches S
1
and S
3
are open. In the next time interval, S
2
and S
4
are open; at the same time, S
1
and S
3
are
closed, the sum of the input voltage V+ and the voltage across C
1
gives the 2V+ output voltage when there is no
load. The output voltage drop when a load is added is determined by the parasitic resistance (R
ds(on)
of the
MOSFET switches and the ESR of the capacitors) and the charge transfer loss between capacitors. Details will
be discussed in the APPLICATION INFORMATION section.
