    摘要: An operation mode selection unit selects an operation mode of a power converter and generates a mode selection signal indicating the result of selection, in accordance with a load condition and a power supply condition. An operation mode switching control unit generates a mode control signal designating an operation mode of the power converter. When the operation mode currently selected by the mode control signal is different from an operation mode indicated by the mode selection signal, the operation mode switching control unit adjusts a power distribution ratio between a plurality of DC power supplies or an output voltage on an electric power line so as not to change abruptly, and then permits a transition of operation mode.

    摘要: A charge pump system uses a helper pump to use in generating a boosted clock signal to use for the stages capacitor of a charge pump and also for the gate clock of the stage. This can be particularly useful in applications with lower supply levels, where a the helper pump can be used to provide an amplitude higher than the supply level, that can then be added to the supply level for the boosted clock signal and then added again to the supply level for the gate clock. Further advantages can be obtained by using the helper or auxiliary pump as an input to an optimized inverter circuit that receives an input clock and has an output that initially rises to the supply level than subsequently to the auxiliary pump's level.

    摘要: A charge pump circuit is provided for generating a voltage (1+1/n) times as high as a supply voltage. The charge pump circuit eliminates the need for diodes for preventing a current from flowing back from a high potential side of capacitors to prevent a reduction in the voltage due to a forward voltage, and reduces a reactive current and latch-up when the charge pump circuit is integrated into a single IC chip. The charge pump circuit includes a fourth switching element having a substrate gate connected to a drain for preventing a current from flowing back to an input terminal from a high potential side of fly back capacitors connected in series, and a second switching element having a substrate gate connected to a drain for preventing a current from flowing back from a high potential side of a catch-up capacitor to the fly back capacitors connected in series.

    摘要: In a voltage booster, a voltage detection circuit detects a battery voltage as an input voltage. If the input voltage is lower than a threshold level, an oscillation circuit outputs a gate signal having a relatively high frequency to increase the driving performance of a driving circuit. If the input voltage is higher than the threshold level, the frequency of the gate signal is lowered so as to prevent the driving performance of the driving circuit from rising to an excessively high value. As a result, a predetermined boosted voltage can be obtained regardless of variations in input voltage without using a filter for eliminating noise.
