    Abstract: A charge-pump circuit without reverse current is disclosed. The charge-pump circuit includes: several diode equivalent networks connecting in series, between any two of adjacent diode equivalent networks having a node with a corresponding voltage-boost level, wherein the low voltage end in the diode equivalent network with lowest voltage-boost level is the input of the charge-pump circuit, and the input receives an input voltage signal; a voltage-boost capacitor network having an end to electronically couple to one of the node and the other end to electronically couple to a pulse signal, wherein the pulse signal has a high-voltage level and a low-voltage level to raise a voltage level at the node with voltage-boost as high-voltage level and low-voltage level switches; and a reverse current cut-off circuit electronically coupled to the diode equivalent networks to enable and disable the diode equivalent networks, wherein the reverse current cut-off circuit has two conductive paths.
