ICL7660SIBAZT

Voltage Regulators - DC DC Switching Regulators Overview

The ICL7660SIBAZT is a voltage converter IC manufactured by Renesas Electronics Corporation. It functions as a charge pump to convert positive supply voltages into negative voltages or to double positive voltages. The device operates from a single power supply and provides output currents up to 10 mA. It features low standby current and requires only two external capacitors for operation. The component is housed in an 8-pin SOIC package.

Voltage Regulators - DC DC Switching Regulators Procurement Notes

Verify the exact suffix 'BAZT' against official Renesas documentation to confirm package type and temperature range specifications. Ensure compatibility with your system's voltage requirements and load current needs before procurement. Cross-reference with authorized distributors to confirm authenticity and availability of this specific variant.

Voltage Regulators - DC DC Switching Regulators Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact solution for generating negative voltages from a positive source is required. Consider its 10 mA output capability and low external component count. Evaluate thermal performance within the specified operating temperature range. Compare with alternative charge pump ICs if higher current or different packaging options are needed.

Voltage Regulators - DC DC Switching Regulators Part Context

The ICL7660 series is a well-established line of voltage converters originally developed by Intersil and now produced by Renesas. These devices are widely used in analog signal processing applications where dual power supplies are necessary but space or cost constraints prevent the use of traditional transformer-based solutions. The SIBAZT variant represents a specific package and temperature grade configuration within this family.

Voltage Regulators - DC DC Switching Regulators Replacement Considerations

Check Renesas datasheets for direct pin-compatible replacements such as other ICL7660 variants with different suffixes. Verify electrical parameters match your application requirements. Consider newer generations of charge pump ICs if improved efficiency or lower noise is required.
