  • Patent number: 9438103
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a charge pump circuit having one or more voltage multiplier circuits that enable generation of an output signal having a higher output voltage. In one embodiment, the charge pump circuit comprises a NMOS transistor having a drain connected to a supply voltage and a source connected to a chain of diode connected NMOS transistors coupled in series. A first voltage multiplier circuit is configured to generate a first two-phase output signal having a maximum voltage value that is twice the supply voltage. The first two-phase output signal is applied to the gate of the NMOS transistor, forming a conductive channel between the drain and the source, thereby allowing the supply voltage to pass through the NMOS transistor without a threshold voltage drop. Therefore, degradation of the charge pump output voltage due to voltage drops of the NMOS transistor is reduced, resulting in larger output voltages.

  • Publication number: 20160098056
    Abstract: A band gap reference circuit is provided that includes a first resistor (R1), a second resistor (R2), a third resistor (R3), a fourth resistor (Ra), a fifth resistor (Rb), a capacitor (Ca), an operational amplifier A, a first field effect transistor (FET) (P1), a second FET (P2), a third FET (P3), a fourth FET (Pa), a first bipolar junction transistor (BJT) (Q1), a second BJT (Q2), and a third BJT (Q3). P3 and Rb are used to control Pa, which is configured to control current flow to a reference node, and thus a reference voltage (Vref) output by the band gap reference circuit. The band gap reference circuit is configured to output a substantially constant reference voltage and is less sensitive or susceptible to noise from a power supply. Additionally, the band gap reference circuit prevents Vref from overshooting when the band gap circuit is enabled.
