ICL7660 — CMOS voltage converter, positive to negative, DIP-8

Manufacturer: Renesas Package: DIP-8

Description

The ICL7660 is a charge pump voltage converter that inverts positive voltage to negative. Converts +1.5V to +10V input to -1.5V to -10V output. Used to generate negative rails for op-amps from single supplies.
