Abstract: An electronic circuit includes a charge pump circuit, which includes a drive power supply; a flying capacitor; and a pump capacitor that is coupled in parallel to the drive power supply and the flying capacitor in response to a first control signal being in first state and is configured to receive charge from the flying capacitor to boost a pump voltage across the pump capacitor to a value that exceeds a drive voltage provided by the drive power supply responsive to a transition of the first control signal from the first state to a second state. The electronic circuit further includes a gate drive circuit coupled to the charge pump circuit.
