Chapter Outline
Section 6.2 discusses the design of a widely adopted open-loop SC step-up DC-DC
converter called the Dickson charge-pump. Section 6.3 introduces cross-coupled SC
step-up DC-DC converters, and Section 6.4 provides an overview of SC step-down
DC-DC converters. Finally, Section 6.5 introduces multiple-gain SC step-down-step-
up DC-DC converters.
6.2 Dickson Charge-Pump
Conventional Dickson Charge-Pump
Probably the most widely used step-up SC DC-DC converter in DRAM, EEPROM,
and fl ash memory applications is the Dickson charge-pump [6]. A fi ve-stage Dickson
charge-pump is shown in Figure 6.
