What are the key features of LTC1550LCMS8-2.5#PBF?
- Low-noise switched-capacitor topology inverts 2.7V–5.25V input to a regulated -2.5V output without magnetic inductors
- Fixed -2.5V output ideal for powering op-amp negative rails, LCD bias, and analog front-end circuits requiring a negative supply
- Compact MSOP-8 (CMS8) package occupies minimal PCB area for space-constrained portable and handheld designs
- 5V nominal input voltage compatibility integrates directly with standard single-supply 5V system rails
- Pb-free, RoHS-compliant construction satisfies environmental regulations for commercial and industrial end products
What is LTC1550LCMS8-2.5#PBF used for?
The LTC1550LCMS8-2.5#PBF is designed for systems that need a small, clean -2.5V negative supply rail derived from a single 5V source, such as op-amp bias circuits, LCD contrast voltage generators, and precision analog-to-digital converter references in portable instruments. Its inductor-free switched-capacitor architecture reduces EMI and simplifies board layout in handheld test equipment, data loggers, and medical diagnostic devices. The MSOP-8 package and minimal external capacitor requirements make it a drop-in negative rail solution for battery-powered mixed-signal designs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What output voltage does the LTC1550LCMS8-2.5#PBF produce and what input range does it require?
The LTC1550LCMS8-2.5#PBF generates a regulated -2.5V output from an input voltage between 2.7V and 5.25V, with 5V being the nominal input; this makes it directly compatible with standard 5V single-supply systems that need a negative rail for op-amps, ADC references, or LCD bias without a separate inverting regulator.
How does the switched-capacitor topology of the LTC1550LCMS8-2.5#PBF reduce noise compared to inductor-based inverters?
Unlike PWM buck-boost inverters that switch inductors and generate broadband EMI, the LTC1550LCMS8-2.5#PBF uses a charge-pump switched-capacitor architecture that transfers energy via flying capacitors typically in the 1µF to 10µF range, producing lower high-frequency noise and avoiding the magnetic field emissions that complicate shielding of sensitive 16-bit ADC circuits operating from the -2.5V rail.
What external components are needed to complete the LTC1550LCMS8-2.5#PBF design, and how much board area is required?
A typical LTC1550LCMS8-2.5#PBF application requires two flying capacitors of approximately 1µF each and one output filter capacitor of 10µF; combined with the MSOP-8 package footprint of roughly 3mm × 3mm, the complete power supply occupies under 50mm² of PCB area, making it one of the smallest negative-rail solutions available.
Can the LTC1550LCMS8-2.5#PBF supply enough current for a dual-supply rail-to-rail op-amp in a portable instrument?
The LTC1550LCMS8-2.5#PBF is designed for low-current negative rail applications; it can typically source 20–30mA from its -2.5V output, which is sufficient for one or two low-power op-amps with quiescent currents under 10mA each but may be insufficient for high-drive audio or motor-driver negative rails requiring over 100mA.
When should a designer choose the LTC1550LCMS8-2.5#PBF over a linear negative regulator like an LM337 for generating -2.5V?
The LTC1550LCMS8-2.5#PBF is preferred when the system has only a single 5V rail and no negative input voltage is available, since the LM337 requires a negative input supply several volts below -2.5V to regulate; the switched-capacitor approach generates the -2.5V autonomously from the positive rail, eliminating the dual-supply transformer or boost stage the LM337 would otherwise demand.
