Regulated 3.3V low ripple charge pump with power good indicator

The TPS6020x step-up, regulated charge

pumps generate a 3.3-V ±4% output voltage from a 1.8-V to 3.6-V input voltage. The

devices are typically powered by two Alkaline, NiCd, or NiMH battery cells and

operate down to a minimum supply voltage of 1.6 V. Continuous output current is a

minimum of 100 mA from a 2-V input. Only four external capacitors are needed to

build a complete low-ripple dc/dc converter. The push-pull operating mode of two

single-ended charge pumps assures the low output voltage ripple, as current is

continuously transferred to the output.
