    Abstract: Certain embodiments of the present invention include an apparatus comprising a charge pump, configured to provide an output voltage at an output node of the charge pump, and a charge pump regulator circuit coupled to the charge pump. One such charge pump regulator circuit is configured to control the charge pump to increase the output voltage during a first period of time. Such a charge pump regulator circuit can also cause a node of a circuit coupled to the output node of the charge pump to reach a target voltage level during a second time period.

    Abstract: Methods of operating voltage generation circuits include applying a clock signal to a first electrode of a first capacitance having a second electrode connected to a first node of a first current path, applying the clock signal to a second capacitance having a second electrode connected to a gate of a second current path connected in parallel with the first current path and with the second electrode further connected to a first end of a resistance having a second end connected to the second node, passing charge across at least one of the first current path and the second current path while the clock signal has a first logic phase, and mitigating current flow across the first current path and the second current path while the clock signal has a second logic phase opposite the first logic phase, as well as apparatus facilitating such methods.

    Abstract: Voltage generation circuits are useful in the generation of internal voltages for use in integrated circuits. Voltage generation circuits may include a stage capacitance and a voltage isolation device connected to the stage capacitance. The voltage isolation device may include a first current path between an input and an output of the voltage isolation device through a diode, and a second current path between the input and the output of the voltage isolation device through a gate. The gate is responsive to the contribution of a low-pass filter between the output of the voltage isolation device and the gate, and to the contribution of a high-pass filter between a clock signal node and the gate.

    Abstract: Apparatuses and methods for reducing read disturb are described herein. An example apparatus may include a first memory subblock including a first select gate drain (SGD) switch and a first select gate source (SGS) switch, a second memory subblock including a second SGD switch and a second SGS switch, and an access line associated with the first and second memory subblocks. The apparatus may include a control unit configured to enable the first and second SGD switches and the first and second SGS switches during a first portion of a read operation and to provide a first voltage on the access line during the first portion. The control unit may be configured to disable the first SGD switch and the first SGS switches during a second portion of the read operation and to provide a second voltage on the access line during the second portion.
