Abstract:
An electronic device includes: a clock booster including a doubler capacitor, the clock booster configured to precharge the doubler capacitor to store a boosted intermediate voltage greater than an input voltage; a secondary booster including a booster capacitor, the secondary booster configured to use charges stored on the doubler capacitor to generate a stage output greater than the boosted intermediate voltage; and a connecting switch connected to the clock booster and the secondary booster, the connecting switch configured to electrically connect the doubler capacitor and the booster capacitor during a recycling duration for discharging a recycled charge from the booster capacitor to the doubler capacitor through the connecting switch, wherein the recycling duration is after generating the stage output.
