Abstract

An output voltage of a negative voltage generator contains a ripple because of a ripple occurring in a voltage produced by a charge pump circuit in the negative voltage generator. When the negative voltage is supplied to an FET amplifier, there arises a possibility that an unwanted spurious component occurs in an output of the FET amplifier. Since each of pair of circuits, that generate a negative voltage, are made mutually complementary, two charge pump circuits are used to cancel ripples. A ripple appearing in an output voltage can therefore be suppressed, and a negative voltage can eventually be supplied more stably. When the negative voltage generator is connected to, for example, an FET amplifier in order to supply a gate bias voltage to each FET in the FET amplifier, an unwanted spurious component that may be contained in an output of the FET amplifier can be removed.
