  • Abstract
    Energy conversion efficiency is a key factor to be optimized when designing integrated charge pumps. We developed an analytic model that fully accounts for the effects of the parasitic capacitances intrinsic to on-chip implementations. This is applied to find the best possible efficiency in a given technology and to formulate a method for maximizing the efficiency under specified constraints.
