Abstract: A wholly integrated, multistage, CMOS voltage multiplier utilizes as a diode structure for transferring electric charge from an input node to an output node of each stage an enhancement type MOS transistor, the gate of which is coupled to the same switching phase to which the output capacitor of the stage is connected by means of a coupling capacitor. During a semicycle of charge transfer through said MOS transistor, the coupling capacitor charges through a second MOS transistor of the same type and having the same threshold of said charge transfer MOS transistor, connected in a diode configuration between the output node of the stage and the gate of the charge transfer MOS transistor, in order to cut-off the latter when reaching a voltage lower than the voltage reached by the output node by a value equal to the threshold value of said second transistor. In this way, a significant voltage drop across the charge transfer transistor is efficiently eliminated, thus allowing the generation of a sufficiently high output voltage though having available a relatively low supply voltage.

Abstract: A power-on reset circuit utilizes capacitive couplings and does not establish any static current path bewteen the supply rails. The circuit has a null static consumption and may be advantageously integrated in CMOS micrologics. Moreover the circuit is insensitive to rebounds on the supply rails and to internal and external noise.

Abstract: A reference cell for reading EEPROM memory devices, capable of discharging any charges present in its own floating gate (3) without varying the geometry of the cell with respect to that of the associated memory cells and without requiring specific manufacturing steps. For this purpose, a switch element, for example a diode (D1), is provided between the floating gate (3) and the substrate (11) of the device and discharges any charges present in the floating gate toward the substrate during the cell idle state (in the absence of read signals)
