VPOS - 5
NPOS
=
5 - 2VFWD
for the positive output, and
VNEG
2VFWD - 5
NNEG
=
for the negative output.
Where,
Table 1: Number of Stages Required for
Positive Charge Pump.
VNEG = Negative output voltage
VPOS = Positive output voltage
VFWD = Forward voltage drop of the Schottky diode
(0.31V, based on BAT54SDW diode when
IF = 4mA)
