Abstract

Disclosed are methods, systems and devices for operation of a circuit to boost a voltage at a load for a particular duration. A plurality of capacitors, each capacitor comprising at least a first terminal, may be coupled to an assisted node. At least a first capacitor and a second capacitor of the plurality of capacitors may maintain the assisted node at or about a target voltage for a duration. The second capacitor may be charged while the first capacitor is discharging in at least a portion of the duration.
