Usually datasheets have the answer for each particular IC. For small current
needs you might check the DC/DC chargepumps. They only need external caps
and resistors to work. TI has several options with good application notes.
Go to "TI Home > Analog and Mixed Signal Home > Power Management Home >
Switching DC/DC Regulation > Charge Pumps". I would download the "Power
Management Selection Guide". Linear and Maxim are also good alternative
sources.
