            Abstract : 
This paper presents a charge pump based on voltage doublers, which can operate at very low input voltages. The proposed design uses dedicated boosting circuits and dynamic body biasing of the pass transistors. Driving capability, voltage gain, and conversion efficiency are demonstrated through simulations.
