Abstract

A circuit having capacitors, and corresponding method. A circuit and corresponding methods are provided. A controller causes a first capacitor to be connected to an input connection in a first operating phase, charge to be transferred from the first capacitor to a second capacitor in a second operating phase and charge to be transferred from the second capacitor to a processing circuit in a third operating phase. The input connection and the second capacitor belong to different voltage domains.
