This paper describes a bipolar output DC-DC converter that uses a single inductor for size andcost reduction. We propose a timing diagram for a charge pump circuit which generates the negative outputvoltage, and present its con guration, operation principle and simulation results. We also show that employingpseudo-continuous conduction mode improves cross-regulation between the two outputs.
Mobile equipment such as organic-EL display, digital still camera and so on re-quire both positive and negative power supply voltage to obtain high quality. Single InductorMultiple-Output (SIMO) DC-DC converter can provide a pair of positive and negative outputvoltages with only one external inductor. This paper describes SIMO DC-DC Converter usingproposed current-mode control (CMC) circuit. The proposed CMC circuit realizes high responsespeed for the change of load current. Spectre simulations with 0.18m CMOS process parameterare performed to verify the validity of the proposed converter. The simulation results indicatethat the proposed converter has higher response time compared with conventional converter.
