Abstract

Embodiments of a charge pump converter are disclosed. In some embodiments, the charge pump converter includes a first switch, a second switch, a third switch, a first charge storage device, and a second charge storage device. The first charge storage device is connected between the first switch and the second switch. The second charge storage device is connected between the second switch and the third switch. In a charging state, the charge pump converter charges the first charge storage device and the second charge storage device. In a multiplying state, the charge pump converter discharges the first charge storage device and the second charge storage device. The multiplying state allows for the charge pump converter to generate voltage higher than an input voltage.
