PRODUCTION DATA
As discussed in the Section 7.3.5 section, the internal charge pump can be enabled or disabled using the CP_EN pin, allowing operation as low as 1.1 V without a BIAS rail.
The CP_EN pin voltage threshold and hysteresis are defined in the Section 6.5 table.
Depending on the circuit implementation, the internal charge pump is powered from either the IN or the BIAS rails. This pin is not designed to be digitally controlled with a digital I/O pin, but is instead intended to be tied on the printed circuit board (PCB) to an analog rail.
Although not intended to be controlled dynamically, the CP_EN pin can be controlled by using a low impedance source and ensuring adequate sequencing between EN and CP_EN because the CP_EN pin is latched when the EN pin is turned on and only an EN reset or a power cycle clears and resets the CP_EN latch.
Figure 8-11 shows the switching frequency of the charge pump at no-load and full load.
