Abstract

A negative voltage generating circuit includes an oscillating unit constructed of a ring oscillator for outputting a pulse signal with a high frequency and a polarity inverting unit in which the pulse signal is inputted to charge negative voltage. This negative voltage generating circuit is miniaturized and outputs a stable negative voltage. Further, the negative voltage to be outputted can be controlled by varying a resistance value through a control of an FET in a voltage controlling unit.
