A voltage generator including an oscillator having an output, a charge pump having an input and an output, the input of the charge pump being coupled to the output of the oscillator, a smoothing capacitor, a resistor having an input end and an output end, wherein the input end is coupled to the charge pump and the output end is coupled to the smoothing capacitor, and a shorting element connected in parallel with the resistor and which, when turned on, causes the resistor to be at least partially bypassed, wherein the voltage generator is configured to supply voltage to a radio frequency (RF) switch via the smoothing capacitor, and a frequency of the oscillator is controlled to be faster during a switching period of the RF switch.
