Series-parallel charge pump with NMOS devices
Abstract:
A charge pump having only NMOS devices charges a plurality of capacitors to a parallel charged voltage level by electrically connecting the capacitors in parallel between an input voltage node and a ground by activating a plurality of first NMOS transistor switches and a plurality of second NMOS transistor switches and deactivating a plurality of third NMOS transistor switches. The charge pump then generates a series capacitor output voltage level at a capacitor series output node by electrically connecting and discharging the capacitors in series between the input voltage node and the capacitor series output node by activating the third NMOS transistor switches and deactivating the first NMOS transistor switches and the second NMOS transistor switches.
