Negative Charge Pump
Figure 27 shows the block diagram of the negative charge pump. The negative charge pump needs to generate
a voltage of –6 V to –7 V with a negative inverter or –12 V to –13 V with a negative doubler. The reference
voltage from the REF pin is 3.15 V. The bias to the REF block comes from the SUP pin. The error amplifier is
referenced to the ground. The VGL can be set with the following equation:

VGL = -
´ VREF

Gate Voltage Shaping
The VGHM output is controlled by the VFLK logic input and the VDPM voltage level.
The VDPM pin allows the user to set a delay before the Gate Voltage Shaping starts. The voltage of the VDPM
pin is zero volt at power on. When the output voltage of the AVDD boost converter rises above a power-good
threshold, a power-good signal enables a 20 µA current source that charges the capacitor connected between
the VDPM pin and the ground. When the VDPM-pin voltage rises to 1.240 V, the Gate Voltage Shaping is
enabled.
The VFLK input controls the M1 and the M2 transistors, as shown in Figure 29, after the Gate Voltage Shaping is
enabled:
When VFLK = “low”, M1 is turned on so VGHM is connected to the VGH input.
When VFLK = “high”, M2 is turned on so VGHM voltage is discharged through M2 and the resistor
connected to the RE pin.
