  • Abstract
    New MOS charge pumps using switches provide better performance than diodes implementations. A modified implementation of a Dickson voltage multiplier using dynamically biased pMOS as switches is presented. Accordingly with the measurements, a power efficiency theory is given. An implementation of a ten stages multiplier is presented generating an output voltage ten times higher from an input between 3 and 6V. The power efficiency of the ten times multiplier is inherently twice as previously reported Dickson implementations.
