  • Publication number: 20090213669
    Abstract: A high-voltage switch circuit includes an enable control circuit, a feedback circuit, a boosting circuit, and a high voltage switch. The enable control circuit precharges an output node to a set voltage in response to an enable signal. The feedback circuit supplies a feedback voltage to an input node in response to a switch control voltage generated from the output node when the output node is precharged. The boosting circuit boosts the feedback voltage and outputs a boosting voltage to the output node, in response to clock signals, thereby increasing the switch control voltage. The high voltage switch is turned on or off in response to the switch control voltage, and is turned on to receive a high voltage and output the received high voltage. The boosting circuit includes an amplification circuit of a cross-coupled type.

  • Patent number: 7564300
    Abstract: A high voltage generator includes a charge pump configured to output a pumping voltage in accordance with a first clock signal and a second clock signal having a level opposed to a level of the first clock signal; a first regulator configured to stabilize the pumping voltage to a voltage having constant level, thereby outputting a first regulation voltage; and a second regulator configured to convert the first regulation voltage into a voltage having constant level, thereby outputting a second regulation voltage. Here, the first regulator increases the pumping voltage by n number so that the first regulation voltage reaches a first level, and the second regulator increases the first regulation voltage by m number so the second regulation voltage reaches a second level smaller than the first level.
