Simple Voltage Inverter Circuit

This is a simple design for inverter that produces voltage. This circuit is a good solution to the powering a dual supply op amp from a single battery problem. The circuit simply takes a positive voltage and inverts it. It uses only one 555 timer and a few other passive components. This is the figure of the circuit.


V+ can be anywhere from 4 to 16V. -V is one volt less than V+. So for -12V output, use +13V input. The maximum current output of the circuit is about 280mA, more than enough for a few op amps. A zener diode may also be used to regulate the output voltage. For better regulation, a 79LOxx series regulator can be used.

R1 24K 1/4 Watt Resistor
R2 56K 1/4 Watt Resistor
C1 3300pF 25V Ceramic Capacitor
C2 47uF 25V Electrolytic Capacitor
