  • Abstract
    A voltage doubler, which avoids body effect and then improves rise time and efficiency even with 1 V power supply, is presented. This art is designed for word line boosting, using 0.18 um EEPROM technology. Not only the voltage doubler can work with capacitive load normally, but also it can supply load current and achieve higher efficiency. The whole circuit can be implemented on chip and is suitable for low voltage application. In addition, theoretical analysis and simulation results have been given.
