0.5V
Negative Supply
Although not very efficient, this simple circuit, consisting of two LEDs
and a photo diode, generates a negative voltage with a current level of a
couple milliamps. It is ideal for supplying a negative rail to low
power “rail to rail” op amp circuits, which need to have a true zero volts
output.
