ABSTRACT:
A charge pump circuit including a plurality of controlled charge pumps (CPs), a plurality of uncontrolled CPs, a plurality of control units, and an output unit is provided. Each controlled CP determines whether to provide charges to a node by a control signal, and each uncontrolled CP constantly provides charges to the node. The higher the node voltage at the node is, the more the controlled CPs not providing charge to the node are, so as to suppress the voltage of the node. In addition, the output unit regulates and outputs an output voltage according to the node voltage by the negative feedback.
