PIN FUNCTIONS
Pin numbers are shown as (LTC1429CS/LTC1429CS8).
NC (Pin 1/NA): No Internal Connection.
C1+ (Pin 2/Pin 2): C1 Positive Input. Connect an 0.1µF
capacitor between C1+ and C1–. With the LTC1429CS in
doubler mode, connect a 0.1µF capacitor from C1+ to C2–.
C1– (Pin 3/Pin 3): C1 Negative Input. Connect a 0.1µF
capacitor from C1+ to C1–. With the LTC1429CS in doubler
mode only, C1– should float.
C2+ (Pin 4/NA): C2 Positive Input. In tripler mode, connect
a 0.1µF capacitor from C2+ to C2– . This pin is used with
the LTC1429CS in tripler mode only; in doubler mode, this
pin should float.
C2– (Pin 5/NA): C2 Negative Input. In tripler mode, con-
nect a 0.1µF capacitor from C2+ to C2–. In doubler mode,
connect a 0.1µF capacitor from C1+ to C2–.
GND (Pin 6/Pin 4): Ground. Connect to a low-impedance
ground. A ground plane will help to minimize regulation
errors.
R0 (Pin 7/NA): Internal Resistor String-1st Tap. See Table
3 in the Applications Information section for information
on internal resistor string pin connections vs output
voltage.
R1 (Pin 8/NA): Internal Resistor String-2nd Tap.
RADJ (Pin 9/NA): Internal Resistor String Output. Connect
this pin to ADJ to use the internal resistor divider. See
Table 3 in the Applications Information section for infor-
mation on internal resistor string pin connections vs
output voltage.
ADJ (COMP for fixed output versions) (Pin 10/Pin 5):
Output Adjust/Compensation. For adjustable parts, this
pin is used to set the output voltage. The output voltage
should be divided down with a resistor divider and fed
back to this pin to set the regulated output voltage. The
resistor divider can be external or the internal divider
string can be used if it can provide the required output
voltage. Typically the resistor string should draw ≥ 10µA
from the output to minimize errors due to the bias current
at the adjust pin. Fixed output parts have the internal
resistor string connected to this pin inside the package;
the pin can be used to trim the output voltage if desired. It
can also be used as an optional feedback compensation
pin to reduce output ripple on both adjustable and fixed
output voltage parts. See the Applications Information
section for more on compensation and output ripple.
OUT (Pin 11/Pin 6): Negative Voltage Output. This pin
must be bypassed to ground with a 1.0µF or larger
capacitor; it must be at least 3.3µF to provide specified
output ripple. The size of the output capacitor has a strong
