Output Ripple
ESR also affects the ripple voltage seen at the output. The
total ripple is determined by 2 voltages, A and B, as shown in
Figure 14. Segment A is the voltage drop across the ESR of

Cascading Devices
The ICL7660 and ICL7660A may be cascaded as shown to
produced larger negative multiplication of the initial supply
voltage. However, due to the finite efficiency of each device,
the practical limit is 10 devices for light loads. The output
voltage is defined by:
V
where n is an integer representing the number of devices
cascaded. The resulting output resistance would be
approximately the weighted sum of the individual ICL7660
and ICL7660A R
Changing the ICL7660/ICL7660A Oscillator
Frequency
It may be desirable in some applications, due to noise or
other considerations, to increase the oscillator frequency.
This is achieved by overdriving the oscillator from an
external clock, as shown in Figure 17. In order to prevent
possible device latchup, a 1k resistor must be used in
series with the clock output. In a situation where the
designer has generated the external clock frequency using
TTL logic, the addition of a 10k pullup resistor to V+ supply
is required. Note that the pump frequency with external
clocking, as with internal clocking, will be
frequency. Output transitions occur on the positive-going
edge of the clock.
It is also possible to increase the conversion efficiency of the
ICL7660 and ICL7660A at low load levels by lowering the
oscillator frequency. This reduces the switching losses, and is
shown in Figure 18. However, lowering the oscillator
frequency will cause an undesirable increase in the
impedance of the pump (C
this is overcome by increasing the values of C
same factor that the frequency has been reduced. For
example, the addition of a 100pF capacitor between pin 7
(OSC) and V+ will lower the oscillator frequency to 1kHz from
its nominal frequency of 10kHz (a multiple of 10), and thereby
necessitate a corresponding increase in the value of C
