ABSTRACT:
A charge pump stage comprising a pulse train which injects energy into a gate of a charge transfer transistor of the charge pump stage, wherein a modified output of the pulse train is input to a bulk of the charge transfer transistor such that a bulk voltage of the charge transfer transistor is raised to a level not greater than the minimum of a source voltage and a drain voltage of that charge transfer transistor. A method for operating the charge pump stage is also disclosed.
